CAPTAIN HOOK - Beautiful Desert Custom Home in private compound

Beautiful home, great location, definitely will be back again.

We stayed at this place for 17 days. There is a reason for a one star review as that is the lowest I could rate this place and owner. We had nothing but problems from day 1. When we walked around the property with George (the owner) we asked about the hot tub and pool next to the bedroom door. George advised that because of Covid that no one else can use the pool and hot tub but the people that rent this individual home. That sounded right especially with Covid but 3 days into our stay here comes the neighbors into the hot tub. When this was brought up to the owner he back stepped and said no when I said private I meant just my guests can use it. So with Covid and 2 feet from our bedroom window/door there are strangers sharing the hot tub. We used the toilet the very first day and it overflowed all over the warped bathroom floor which would lead anyone to believe it has happened quite a few times before. We had non stop issues with the Wi-Fi. We would go from not having any at all to it being so weak we could not stay connected. George decided to paint the outside of the houses while they are rented. So we dealt with the inconvenience and smell of paint while we are renting he is having the place painted. George also had a leak in his propane line so he had the propane shut off. So every time we wanted to cook he turned the propane on which was extremely dangerous if there was a leak in the line. The propane grill outside was out of propane and covered in spider webs. The place was dirty with spider webs all over the pirate mannequins in the house. The living room was dark and dingy. The only TV in the house was in the bedroom above the bed. On the add for this place it says it sleeps 4 there is only one bed and a couch that is not a bed. We were going to have our kids come and stay for a couple of days and were unable as there was no place for them to sleep. This was a bad experience and for the money spent not worth it at all. This owner promises things he doesn’t provide.

We had such a nice time at this house. It isn’t fancy but rather comfortable. The bed and living room furniture are very cozy. The shower has a great rain head. We sat in the hot tub at night and watched the stars. My husband rode his mountain bike and ran into the mountains from the house. Great location for him. For me, even though we were pretty much in the country it was a short trip into town. Sitting on the front patio you can watch the mountains. There are a couple other rentals on the property and The owner lives there. We enjoyed the company! George communicated well with us whenever we had a question.

Enjoyed my stay. The property is very private and peaceful. George is a great host!! Facilities are very comfortable.
