We found the place to be modern, clean and well located to experience Arizona. I would highly recommend this place to others traveling to that area. We will visit this place again in the future.
We had an amazing stay here. No detail was missed. The hosts were fabulous and we met the donkeys too. A nice touch was the walking sticks for hiking which we also did right outside the door. We felt very welocome. Definitely will be back.
We’ve loved every visit to this wonderful property. The casita is perfectly appointed. It is our first choice for New River and I don’t anticipate that changing.
We have stayed in many rentals over the years and this little desert gem stands out from the pack. It is just the right combination of remoteness (not too far from the city and suburbs) and desert vibes while still serving as a hub for day visits to area attractions. The casita is immaculately tidy and well appointed and everything you could possibly need for your stay is provided. The donkeys are friendly and extremely personable and will enjoy your attention. And finally the hosts are wonderfully welcoming and want to make sure you have everything you need to have a relaxing stay. Don’t hesitate to book this one. The description and other reviews are spot on.
The property was immaculate and very well stocked, everything we could want was available and there were even treats provided.
The donkeys were adorable and friendly. We had a beautiful morning hike in the hills walking among the saguaro and other cacti. It was a beautiful place to stay.
This was by far the best rental we have ever stayed in. The attention to detail made everything so special. Bravo to the hosts! You really made our stay pleasant and relaxing. We can't wait to come back! The burros were so sweet. The area was so scenic. The trails nearby provided stunning views. Loved every minute.
Peaceful, beautiful, immaculately maintained & managed. This little casita exceeded every expectation. It was absolute perfection. You can escape the hustle/bustle yet still be close to Phoenix & all it has to offer. Well done!! This will be my go to getaway!
Everything was perfect! Absolutely beautiful property (outside and inside), impeccably clean, every detail was considered and we were so comfortable here. Property managers were very easy to reach and friendly. I hope to stay here again!
The Casita exceeded our expectations and was a great location for experiencing Arizona for the first time. We only had a few days, so the location was important. Getting there from the airport was easy and not stressful. Once there, the Casita had everything we wanted and then some.
This was the best place! Away from it all yet close to everything. Susan and Dan were the most accommodating hosts supplying everything we needed and more. We loved watching the donkeys and having them greet us when we came home. Don’t hesitate to book this place!!
It was the perfect setting! Very tranquil and as my husband said it "realigns you". We loved the Casita and the donkeys. Susan and Dan thought of everything that you can possibly need during your stay. We will definitely be back!
The perfect home base for hiking, exploring and sight seeing. Everything you need is close by and there is no noise or lights from Phoenix. The host were amazing with communication and what things to go and do. The hike right outside the property was a wonderful way to end our stay there.
We loved our stay at this casita. Beautiful views all around and plenty of comfortable outside seating areas. Comfortable bed and pillows. Quiet neighborhood with great stargazing. The casita was spotless and everything was well stocked. We lacked nothing. I bought some bagels from the bakery and I was very happy to find a bread knife there to cut them with. I was very impressed. The hosts went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed including creamer for my coffee and fresh eggs. They even made sure the hot tub temperature was set to our liking. Super nice hosts. We loved meeting the sweet donkeys. They are so cute and friendly. Our stay here was perfect and we hope we can stay again.
The Casita is exactly as shown. Good location, quiet, private and filled with all the needed amenities. If you are considering booking, don't wait! Just book it, you will be very happy you did.
It was a wonderful home away from home. The owners could not have been nicer or more accommodating. They have donkeys on the property and shared with our family an experience of feeding them treats. They also had a 4 day old baby donkey! Thank you for hosting us, Ann and Jerry
Everything you need already stocked for you! Owners went above and beyond to make our stay pleasant. The thoughtfulness and details make this place stand out. Susan and Dan should write a “how to” book on how to successfully set up the best VRBO experience. Many thanks!
A stay at Fredas Casita was just what I needed. The casita was far enough away from things that I could relax and enjoy the peace and beauty of nature but close enough to activities like horseback riding and hot air balloon rides that I could sprinkle in some adventure into my trip. Especially loved the ability to take morning hikes on the trails next to the property. Susan and Dan were great hosts and have created an oasis in the desert.
Very clean, well stocked, plushy casita. At the end of a short gravel road with the Sonoran desert at our doorstep. A welcome basket of snacks and comforts of home were an unexpected bonus! Probably the best VRBO we’ve stayed at- and we’ve traveled a lot in 10 yrs! Shopping only 5 miles away. Fire pit and outdoor viewing area for viewing sunsets. Very relaxing, away from the hustle & bustle of Phoenix! We’ll be back.
