The Auburn at Tempe | Heated Pool + Park Adjacent

Great house in a very convenient location! The pool is perfect for a hot day and the host is very helpful.

Your house was beautiful thanks for letting us stay! Definitely will be back with our kids to enjoy the pool next time

Clean house and quiet area

Thoroughly disappointed from the moment we drove up to the property. The front was covered with tall weeds. The filter for the air intake on the air conditioner looks like it hasn’t been changed in years and was disgusting. We wanted to bbq for lunch and the propane tank on the grill was completely empty. The owner did reimburse me for the price of exchanging a new one but I shouldn’t have had to make a special trip to do that when I could have been enjoying time with the family and kids. Pictures showed hammocks in the tree and another table game. Those were non existent. The ping pong table was absolutely not usable due to weather damage and being warped. There were Amazon packages on the front porch that remained throughout our stay. The pool was dirty and we contacted the owner about turning on the vacuum that was in the pool so that it could self clean, it never got turned on. There was a minimum fine of 250 if we touched it from our side. The pictures on the profile didn’t match at all. When I complained, the owner quickly deleted the pictures from the profile. I’ve attached some of the discrepancies. Many of the inviting features of the home were not there. This was a huge let down for our family and not the vacation that we were hoping for.

We would definitely stay here again! Great spot, very convenient for families. Close to the park, shopping and anything else you might need.

I have never NOT given a host 5 stars. I like to think I’m pretty easy going but unfortunately I was not impressed with this rental. I was traveling with a total of 4 adults and 2 children. When we arrived, my kids instantly wanted to swim, so of course we let them. When they got out of the pool, I could not find towels anywhere and then my daughter needed to use the restroom and I couldn’t find toilet paper anywhere. Both bathrooms empty of towels and toilet paper. I will say; that once I called the host, he did answer and offered to instacart toilet paper to the house. I had to go to the grocery store any way so I told him I would snag some. He said he was going to reimburse me and that didn’t happen. I had accidentally thrown the receipt away so it was a loss on my end. After that, we began to unwind for the night and I noticed multiple holes in the wall and the trash can lid was broken. I texted the host so he was aware and so I wouldn’t be charged. He then needed me to send the pictures to another number. It was just really unsettling because every rental we have done before was so organized. The backyard looked so fun, but you can’t swing on any swings. The swings by the bar hit the poles they’re next to, and the swings from the tree, once you’re sitting in them, your butt is on the ground. The corn hole boards were broken and there were no ping pong balls for the ping pong table. We chose this one due to the yard so it was disappointing.

This is a beautifully home, and location is very nice and quite and nice park and lake near by, Host was great and letting us check in early was a plus , House need a better cleaning and update on the house now as some items in the picture where either broken / faded or not there which that was a little disappointing, but other then that I would stay here again.

This was a great find for anyone looking to stay central to activities in the Phoenix area. You are close to major freeways but just far enough away to have some quiet and peace. The house was great (with the added bonus of the park literally in the back yard for kids!).

Top notch rental property and Chris is very fast and professional on the VRBO messaging. Honestly loved the place and we would stay again without hesitation. Parks nearby were great for the kids and getting a jog in on the paths. Not much we'd have done differently but we would have brought our own frying pan, and I don't think we would have bothered heating the pool in December. The summer and shoulder seasons are probably better for that. We had a wonderful Christmas at this house! Highly recommend!
