IMPORTANT INFORMATION

* Our properties are nestled in the forest area of Prescott, Arizona, home to a variety of wildlife including bears, javelinas, Arizona beetles, large mosquitoes, lizards and other creatures. While our homes undergo regular pest control treatments, you may occasionally encounter outdoor bugs indoors.

* There is no landline telephone available at the property, but most cell service carriers offer coverage in the area.

* We provide high-speed internet, the fastest WiFi in the region; however, service may fluctuate occasionally due to the mountainous location, altitude, and weather conditions.

* To ensure a safe stay, we kindly remind guests to avoid leaving food or trash outdoors, as this will attract unwanted wildlife.

* For security purposes, there are external cameras monitoring the exterior area. Please be advised that we do not reside on the property full-time and use the camera to oversee property security during each reservation.

* We do not offer cancellations, refunds, reschedules, or credits for weather-related issues, changes in our guests plans, or guest emergencies. We recommend guests purchase travel insurance through VRBO at the time of booking to protect against such circumstances.

* Periodically, third-party services such as water filtration, hot tub maintenance, landscaping, and pest control may be on-site at the property.

* As our home is situated in the mountainous forest area, the water may have hard water characteristics due to mineral content, impacting its taste. Although this water is safe for consumption and treated professionally, guests may notice mineral taste and potential water spots on dishes. The dishes are cleaned thoroughly, but the hard water may affect their appearance. Guests who are sensitive to the taste may wish to bring bottled water during their stay for their convenience.

* Our hot tub is professionally maintained on a weekly basis. If you encounter any issues with the hot tub during your stay, please inform us promptly, and we will arrange for servicing. To maintain the hot tub's condition, guests are not allowed to enter with body oil, lotion, or hair products that may alter the water quality and cause oily substances or discoloration. Thank you for your cooperation.

* Pet Accommodation
We happily welcome pets at our property. An additional fee of $15 per night per pet will be charged, with a payment request sent post-booking. To ensure their safety, we recommend keeping the courtyard gates closed when pets are outside. Guests are responsible for any damages caused by pets. Pets must be on a leash when outside the courtyard due to active wildlife. Kindly respect neighbors while on the grounds and relocate gatherings indoors during late hours.

* Larger Group Gatherings
For larger group gatherings exceeding the base price of 18 guests, an additional fee will apply. Please inquire for more information if interested in hosting a larger group event. Thank you for understanding and adhering to our policies.

Thank you for choosing to stay with us and we hope you enjoy your time in the beautiful forest surroundings of Prescott, Arizona.

Christmas getaway celebration
Kids loved the game room and spent a great deal of time there. EVERYONE loved the massage chair, so it was in use a lot of the time. Everyone loved the movie room too. Great location to see wildlife just about everyday as we saw multiple deer, and multiple javelinas just about every day. Close to enough to Prescott if we needed anything or to go shopping or out to eat. Private suite was a nice escape/getaway for one couple. Good size kitchen and plenty of tables and eating spaces. The 7 to 11 year old girls loved the loft location with the 3 twin beds. So they had it all to themselves away from their younger brothers.The game house has an exceptional amount of games available to play.

Taking son to college
We needed a place for 4 nights. The house was nice. The beds were comfortable. The game room made our stay more entertaining for my boys. We used the pool table a lot and played cards. I also used the hot tub a couple times. The house was clean and in a nice area. I will be booking again when I come back to visit my son.

Great stay for Family with kids
Location of the property was great, quiet & in the woods not far at all from the town center. It’s ideal for a couple of families with kids. It wasn’t quite ideal for 7 of us adults as the loft has a spiral, very narrow stairway which 2 of us had to sleep up in. The game room is in the detached garage and has a ton of fun things to do! We enjoyed that. We LOVED the massage chair!! House was clean & communication with the property manager was awesome.

Disappointed
Not so great. Not ideal for all adults, maybe 2 couples and 10 children. The suite AC didn’t work, windows don’t open. Hot and stuffy. Can hear everything from upstairs. Smells like rodents. Main house lighting was weird everywhere. Smelled like rodents. All of the smoke detectors batteries were low so they were all beeping. Front porch light literally hanging from wires. The Murphy bed is in a separate house altogether. sheets didn’t fit. Uncomfortable. Dirty. Small tan bugs on the mattress. Jacuzzi was shocking us. The water was electrified. Not static, a good zap. Contacted owner. No one showed up to fix it. It’s the main reason we choose the house, shut the breaker off for the entire weekend. Kitchen not equipped. Can openers didn’t work. Spices there are spices you don’t use. Stairs to the loft only for the small and agile person. Stairs to the Murphy bed sketch. Very disappointed. Owner never bothered to contact me to offer a refund for the jacuzzi.

The large property provided plenty of space and parking to host a wedding rehearsal dinner. The game room is large and provides many games and a separate TV room for entertainment. The owner was very responsive to my questions and provided all details to ensure a fantastic stay.

Presscott Lodge Thansgiving Break
Property was well maintained and very much as described in the listing. Situated at the end of a quiet 'neighborhood' with good access to Goldwater Lakes area and thr town of Prescott in the other direction. Kids thoroughly enjoyed the game room and theatre area. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes/pots/pans/utinsils...we were able to put together a Thansgiving meal with no problem. Plenty of beds to acvommodate the family gathering. Enjoyed our stay very much.

Look beyond the pictures
We enjoyed the location but the photos are misleading-we felt the place was a bit warn and small for the price. While the main house sleeps 13 there is only 1 bathroom. The game room is an unattached garage that sleeps 2 w/another bathroom, and the master suite w bathroom around the side of the house with an outside basement entrance. Would recommend the housekeeping to be a bit more thorough (half empty beer can in game room, webs, etc). We had 9 adults and it was tight with available soft seating in the living room. Several kitchen chairs were broken (literally screws falling out while in use) and very wobbly. No outlet in the main house bathroom unless you count the one behind an affixed cabinet that was not obtainable. The small spiral staircase has very narrow tapered steps (talking 4-5” of tread to step on) labeled “use at your own risk” and wrapped in ripped up window screen - keep in mind 3 beds are located at the top of the stairs with a big uncovered window so plan on waking early - so there’s a safety choice you’ll need to make if you need the bed space. Older home for sure, main house bathroom faucet occasionally sprayed all over and the stove temperature cooked a bit wonky. We had great company and the home has aspects we can praise - is close to town, and we saw several deer in the yard and a family of javelinas - so the wildlife was awesome. Jacuzzi was nice to relax in as well. We had great weather and all in all we’d give this home 6.5 rating.
