Lake and wedding weekend
The tonto house was perfectly located between lake and venue for wedding. We enjoyed our time with our kids and grandkids! Home was clean, spacious, and the pool table gave hours of entertainment when we weren't on the lake or doing weddings stuff.

Great Place to stay!!!
We really enjoyed our stay. After being out on the lake all day long it was wonderful to come back to a cool clean home. The pool table was a huge bonus. Our family all took turns playing. Are only suggestion get some new pots and pan otherwise, it was perfect.

Fantastic hime
We were so delighted to have found this property. Close to the lake, spacious, clean, and very welcoming. The adults loved the views, the kids loved learning how to play pool, and the house had everything we needed with the exception of laundry detergent. We would definitely stay again.

We loved our stay at the Tonto house, great location, quiet and comfortable. We saw quail, hares, ravens, a roadrunner and a couple of bark scorpions. Beautiful place. The peace and quiet was just what we needed.
