    We had such an amazing stay at this VRBO! The house was spacious, super clean, well maintained, and perfect for our group. There were 13 of us and it still felt huge! The pool and outdoor area were definitely a highlight, we spent so much time out there and loved every second of it.The kitchen was also incredible and had everything we needed to cook meals comfortably during our stay, which made things so easy. The second fridge in the garage was also helpful to have! Stacy was an absolutely wonderful host from start to finish… extremely communicative, helpful, and thoughtful throughout the entire process from booking to checkout.Would absolutely recommend this home to anyone looking for a relaxing, fun, and seamless stay!

    We were a group of 9, with ages ranging from 9 to 68, and we all enjoyed our stay at The Big Dog! Stacy was always friendly and quick to respond to any questions. The house was spacious and clean with so many games and activities to do right on the property. The back yard and pool area were also wonderful! Everything is as pictured and described on the website, but you truly have to stay to appreciate everything this house offers.

    The house, as well as the the host/owner Stacy, was excellent. Stacy made the check-in and check-out process very easy. We had 8 guys staying here for a week-long golf trip the first week of March. Plenty of room. Great gathering area for after golf relaxing, shooting pool, playing shuffle board, and cards/poker chips included. The house was very well maintained (all of the essentials and high end appliances for cooking in), and super convenient to all of our golf courses and just minutes from the best restaurants. I would recommend this house in a heart beat. We are already scheduling a future trip and wouldn't think of staying anywhere else.

    Our stay at The Big Dog estate FAR exceeded our expectations. It felt like a retreat with the gorgeous space, amenities and of course the stunning backyard with the pool. Our trip was a bucket list experience for 11 family members to be with my father-in-law who is going through some health challenges. It was so good for our souls… to laugh and truly embrace life with everyone. Stacy and Kurt’s place was so incredible that we barely left the home. Communication with them was perfect. Everything was clean (spotless) and organized. Even the beds were beyond comfortable. The location is within 2 miles of a great grocery store… we even had a Super Bowl party and cooked our food on the outdoor expansive grill and watched the game on a 100 inch TV. The entire trip was a dream come true. Seriously, we all want to go back tomorrow. 10/10. P.S. We picked fresh fruit (oranges and Mexican Lime) growing in the backyard. It was better than any store-bought fruit!

    We spent 5 nights at the Big Dog and I can’t recommend it more. We had the most amazing time staying here with our family while in AZ for my nephew’s wedding. The rooms were spacious, clean and so comfortable. The kitchen was perfect and included all the pots and pans we needed. It was so easy to communicate with Stacy and Kurt. They’d check in daily and would respond within minutes if we had a question. All in all it was such an amazing trip and the best place to stay and make so many beautiful memories!

    Came here with 14 friends and couldn’t recommend this home more. Tons of amenities, absolutely stunning back yard, lots of shaded room outside to hang out (loved the outdoor TV at night), the grill outside was perfect for weekend lunch, the beds were all cozy, and I’ve truly never had better communication with a host. They’re always available when needed and couldn’t be nicer- thank you Stacy & Kurt!
