This place was comfy super cute and easy access to everything in town. It is really close to neighbors on both side who have dogs. Only a chain link fence divides the yards. The dogs will bark when you go outside. But they were very nice

Dog Friendly Retreat
Lovely 3 bedroom home with no carpet and leather furniture making it perfect for traveling with out 4 legged family. Fenced in backyard with fire pit really adds! When I asked about marshmallow roasting sticks, Grace sent me money to pick some up, double what I needed to spend. Fabulous communication. Flagstaff is a great location. Thanks you sooooo much!

Summer getaway
The house was perfect for our family of 6. There were plenty of supplies and the home was in good condition. We didn’t have any pets with us during our stay. The neighbors on both sides had dogs but weren’t a bother. We went in July and the weather was on the warmer side, high 80s to low 90s. Multiple fans were available for our use. Overall we had a very enjoyable stay and would gladly come back to this home again. Suggestions: Ceiling fans in the smaller bedrooms would be useful and help to give more light. Adding Window AC units would help during the hotter time of year.

Pretty Good Overall
We mostly enjoyed our stay at the Chill Cottage and had a great time overall. The location in terms to nearness of national parks and monuments was perfect! I will give you the pros and cons after staying at this location for a week. Pros: Very cean, updated, GREAT host, stocked w coffee, toiletries, laundry detergent, box fans, fenced in yard for our small dogs, decent wifi, close to many restaurants, grocery stores, had almost everything we needed! Cons: -No air conditioning. Even on the days when it got up to the low 80s, we could not keep the house cool with 3 box fans and a stand alone water cooler. It did cool down at night, but it took a while. We had to sleep w the front door open (there is a security screen door) which was a bit uncomfortable since we weren’t familiar w the neighborhood. It wasn’t the worst experience ever, but there were a few days when it was uncomfortable. -Neighborhood was just ok. I should have Google Earthed it. - Driveway was very steep. Parking was challenging. We had a hard time getting our 3/4 ton truck out of park and into reverse due to the incline. As I mentioned, Grace is a great host and our stay for the most part was a good one.

Great stay
Grace was amazing! We were in town for a trade show and had many last minute changes do to partner and leadership requests. Grace was responsive and accommodating, she went above and beyond. The Cottage was in a convenient location and a nice space to stay. Neighbors were all very friendly and if you have a dog this cottage made traveling with a pet super easy.

Cute house in a great location for NAU/downtown
Had a nice weekend for our daughter’s graduation ceremony. Easy access on/off freeways and to NAU/downtown. The only negative was a steep driveway for access to house, and parking beyond 1 car was at the end of the street.

Cute house, great communication, quiet neighborhood
We loved this house, and the nature in the backyard. The local recommendations were great. Rooms were good size, kitchen had everything we needed. Our only suggestion is that the access to the backyard was a little difficult and there wasn't much privacy from neighbors. Great town, amazing food, and peaceful ambiance.

Thanksgivivng
Everything was fine except for the floors had a lot of dark hair on the floors and were all light haired. Also the neighbor dog on both sides were very vicious and although they were fenced, it made it very difficult and awkward to get our dog to the treat trail area behind the house without incident. The driveway is very awkward. Can only accommodate one vehicle and is quite steep. That would have been OK except we got a ice storm while we were visiting and made it somewhat dangerous. The house itself is very cute. Accommodated our needs.

Perfect spot for our getaway!
My family (2 adults, 2 kids, 1 dog) wanted to experience some crisp fall weather and see the changing of the leaves. This was a great house for us...convenient location, cozy home with space to cook and lounge, a fenced yard for our dog, in a quiet and safe neighborhood. Grace, our host, was so kind and privided all the information we needed while we stayed at her home. We look forward to returning to this VRBO next time we plan a trip to Flagstaff!

The cozy cottage was a great place for our family to relax and enjoy the fresh air together. It's convenient to downtown Flagstaff and NAU, and it's well-equipped for cooking and relaxing. My son loved that he could hook up his game system in the bedroom, and we all enjoyed the hiking trails out the back yard. We hope to return again! Thanks Grace for a wonderful stay!

Great comfortable space for 6 people to stay. We all had enough room to be able to hang out together but then also spread out when needed. Backyard was way smaller than it looked like in the puctures making it so my brother didnt feel comfortable bringing his 2 dogs. Overall very nice place though.

Cool Cottage! Cool Place to Stay!
Great stay at this cute little place! Very clean and close to all of the things we wanted to do! Next time I visit I will come at a cooler time as there is no air conditioning (Az heatwave right now). However it cooled down at night and a portable evaporative cooler was provided by the property owner. I highly recommend this gem!!

Cute, clean cottage by forest
We rented this cottage for a girls’ getaway. The space was cutely decorated and had everything we needed. We especially enjoyed sitting on the deck in the cool morning air to watch the birds while we drank coffee. Driveway is very steep- in case you have mobility issues. But other than that, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to revisit!
