perfectly clean comfortable home on a spacious lot with ample room for habitat exploration and privacy. Hosts Rhonda and Mark are gracious, accommodating, and I feel they sincerely want their guests to have the best experience possible. We hope to be able to visit here again.

So glad you enjoyed your stay, and could appreciate the rocks - they had been collected over years by the prior owner, a retired geologist / archeologist. Come again!

From the Owner: "We’re glad to hear you found the house roomy and enjoyed the location. We do provide welcome materials with our personal contact information, so we were surprised not to be contacted during your stay regarding the carpet, toilet seat, BBQ, or any other concerns. That said, we truly value your feedback and inspected the property right away upon receiving your review.
We found that the toilet seat had been removed but was not broken , it has since been reattached and tightened securely. The BBQ grill showed signs of use but was not dirty aside from exterior dust typical of our desert environment. As it is not listed as an amenity, we’ve removed it from the property out of an abundance of caution. The carpet showed no issues beyond the standard wear we address with thorough cleaning after every guest stay.
If you’re able to share more specifics about the carpet, we’d be happy to discuss them privately. We always encourage guests to reach out to us during their stay so that any concerns can be addressed immediately and not impact their visit."
Great property to get away from it all. The house was very clean and surprisingly big. The kids loved watching all the birds coming in to the feeders and walking around looking for lizards. You can't beat the mountain views at sunrise and sunset. Perfect base for exploring the Portal/Rodeo area.
