Welcome to our southwest Spanish style Hacienda! Almost 6,000 square feet, 8 bedrooms and 6 full bathrooms.

This backyard is amazing, your own private resort! The pool has two water slides, a grotto with a waterfall, a tanning ledge and a separate hot tub. Plenty of patio seating for your large crowd. Many pool lounge chairs, 4 plus patio seating areas- in the shade and in the sun. Many large patio heaters for the cooler desert evenings. Heating the pool is $200 for up to 7 days. (please note, our pool is over 17,000 gallons and we bought the largest heat pump our pool company could find. In the winter months the heater will struggle to maintain temperaures above 80 degrees when the overnight temps are low and the sunlight is so short of hours and also low temperatures. The heat pump will automaically shut off as an equipment saftey feature when air temps go down to 45 or below. When your use the waterslides and the water is cycling thru the cold air, it will also cause the pool tempature to lower. Please message us for any other questions before booking and please understand the water will not feel like a hot tub.) The pool has its own full bathroom and is completely fenced off from part of the yard with a gate for safety of the little ones.

We have a basketball hoop, 11 hole mini golf course, and a pickle ball court. Yard sized chess game! We also have corn hole, ladder ball, lawn darts, and spike ball. We added two sun sail shades over the playset and miniature golf areas in 2023.

We have a RuffHouse Playset, large enough for older children also. Made local here in Mesa, Az!

The outdoor kitchen is so large! It has a brand new griddle and grill fall of 2023, 2 beverage refrigerators, an ice maker with a hand painted mural that continues your view of superstition mountain right into your back yard. It’s covered- so plenty of shade and a sectional, a table that seats 8.

We have a game room with a pool table, dart board, connect four, shuffle board table, and a poker table. You won’t have time to leave the property to do other activities!

Our beds all have quality linens and sheets. We have 5 pack n plays, two high chairs, 2 toddler cots & 2 floor beds. Kid friendly plates, cups and bowls. Plenty of books to read to the little ones and chapter books for the older ones. We have family friendly board games and puzzles. These are located in the bedroom with buit in bookshelves.

The master bedroom and bathroom are huge and has a loft with amazing views of Superstition & Dinosaur Mountain and a desk for a working vacation.

We have two additional bedrooms that also have desks and office chairs so online schooling or a working staycation are easy at our house. A printer is available for printing.

We have remodeled the kitchen June of 2024! Brand new kitchen aide double wall oven, TWO dish washers, French door refrigerator and a built in drawer microwave. A 6 burner built in down draft cooktop. We added a breakfast bar with 4 barstools. The kitchen is stocked!! Paper towels, Saran Wrap, tinfoil and some condiments, spices just to mention a few. We have a 4 slice toaster, kitchen aide hand mixer, vitamix blender, nesspresso ventura coffee machine, a keurig and a drip coffee maker. Full set of pots and pans with extra skillets. Crock pot, instapot and Dutch oven. Lots of kids cups, plates and bowls. Our dinning room table can seat 10 very comfortably, and of course the two high chairs.

We have parking for two RV’s with 50 amp RV hook ups and septic dumps.

This property can handle multi generation family get togethers or multiple friends and families that want to vacation together. The sunsets and the stargazing will surely be a part of your memories on this vacation as Gold Canyon is a small quiet town with very little light pollution. This is our personal vacation home and we want to make your stay wonderful for special family memories.

We are close to beautiful hikes on Superstition, Dinosaur and Silly Mountains, a Goldfield ghost town and gold mine is near by and the annual Renaissance Festival. Canyon Lake and Saguaro Lake are close by. You can rent paddle board & Kayaks and get out on the water. Salt river tubing is another fun way to spend the day. Rent a tube from them, float down the river and take the shuttle back up. Apache Junction & Mesa are close by with Costco, Marshall’s, Target, malls and so much more. There so many restaurants to choose from right here in Gold Canyon and such a short drive to Apache Junction and Mesa. Mesa Flea Market is open on the weekends and so fun!

We are 35 mins to Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport- 20 mins to Mesa Airport, 40 mins to Scottsdale, all the conveniences nearby but Gold Canyon has the relaxation of small town living.

Gold Canyon has several top golf courses and this home can easily fit several families for a golfing vacation!

Please note there are several cameras located on the exterior of the property for security reasons. Camera 1 faces the large gate at the front of the property. Camera 2 faces the side yard. Camera 3 faces the backyard, Camera 4 faces the game room and small gate.

We do not allow any jumping or diving off the top of the water slides or the grotto/waterfall for safety reasons and shallow depth of the pool.

We have a very large rooftop balcony with a spiral staircase. The surface of the roof cannot hold patio furniture, it has the potential to poke holes in it. The wall going around is too short for safety. We have choose to padlock the gate so that little ones and furniture are not climbing up. Please be aware of our safety rules and if you choose climb over our gate and padlock it is at your own risk.
There is another rooftop balcony upstairs by the two bedrooms that has a bench so you can enjoy star gazing and the view.

Please note. We have many propane tanks at the property for the outdoor kitchen and the patio heaters. As we live out of state we are unable to keep the tanks filled used by guests. You will probably need to fill them when you arrive at the house, there is a swap at walgreens less than a mile from the house and Basha's Grocery store a little further away. Our house keeper can also swap them for you at the price $250 for 6 tanks. Please let us know when you are booking so we can have the tanks filled prior to your arrival. Thank you.

    Tammy and Mark were so helpful and welcoming! They were very responsive! When we had some issues with pool heating, they were quick to get a contractor out to fix it and refunded us our heating fee. Great hosts! And a great house! Plenty of amenities for the kids and adults. We enjoyed the swing set, pool, pickleball and so much more! And the view is spectacular!

    We had an amazing time staying here! We had a group of about 18 and had more than enough room for everyone. We stayed 4 nights and 5 days and they had more than enough activities for us to enjoy. The pool was the highlight by far. Mark and Tammy were amazing hosts that were available by phone the entire time. We will definitely be considering them as hosts for our trip next year!

    Our family of 26 had a wonderful stay. The house was spacious, clean, and well-stocked with essentials like paper towels, soap, and toilet paper, which was appreciated. We were a bit concerned about the July heat, but the pool temperature was comfortable, and the shade sails over the playground made it possible for the kids to play outside during the day.The game room was the only space that felt a bit too warm, but with so many other amenities, it wasn’t a major issue. We regularly used the grill area, pizza oven, pool slides, and pickleball court, which were all nice features. The owner was responsive and addressed a plumbing issue quickly.The outdoor furniture could use some updating, but overall, everything met our needs, and our family enjoyed the stay.

    Eleven of my family and friends stayed at this beautiful compound for a week. We never needed to leave; there were so many fun things to do- play in the pool, play games in the bunkhouse, play golf outdoors, and so on! This place has it all.But of course, we did manage to get out and explore. We hiked the nearby Superstition Mountains, took in a ghost town, and had wonderful meals at nearby restaurants. Tammy and Mark were excellent hosts, and their communication was excellent before and during our stay. We would go back again and again!

    Very clean.. easy check in...tons of things to do, beds were very comfortable...and the best thing all areas were fenced so kids couldn't get anywhere that wasn't supervised...There were areas all around the property if you needed some quiet time. Lots of toys and sports equipment to keep everyone happy...

    This home is the best, all-inclusive place we have ever stayed! Pool, massive kitchen, game room, pickle ball court, park…there’s just no need to go elsewhere during your stay (unless you want to discover the amazing hikes that are very close by!) The hosts are such wonderful people, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

    Just spent 8 days at this amazing house, with our five adult kids and their spouses and our three grandsons. So much to do, so much space, and the hosts were very available and very responsive to any questions or the very small issues we had. Best stocked VRBO - cleaning supplies, toilet paper/trash bags for the full week, spices, amazing pantry with every kitchen item we could have needed. We highly recommend this property!

    The hosts were gracious, informative and attentive. I would highly recommend this property to anyone interested in a well laid out and thought out floor plan for accommodating a large group that includes married couples and children of all ages.The amenities are over the top. The grounds are similar to a five star resort. A 5-star hotel, services are offered proactively based on your expected needs and what the hotel perceives you might need. That is exactly the experience we had. I feel like the hosts supplied everything they thought we might need during our stay. We all had a great time and we look forward to coming again.
