The home was incredibly clean, comfortable and well stocked! The snacks, water, coffee, tea and ice were very much appreciated. The hosts were excellent communicators and sent some tips for shopping and gas in advance that were quite helpful. It was a great place to stay for a private escape near the Grand Canyon!

We were looking for a small air-conditioned home with washer and dryer, away from the crowds, but within driving distance for day trips to the Grand Canyon. This home fit the bill perfectly! About a half hour drive from Grand Canyon. The house is quite small, but it suited my husband and I well. There is a Keurig coffee machine and the owner thoughtfully provided K cups, kettle and tea, 2 rolls of paper towels, 3 or 4 rolls of TP, a couple of large trash bags, dish soap, dishwasher detergent, and plenty of towels and washcloths. Most importantly, the whole place was very clean! AC worked great. We enjoyed sitting on the large front porch, especially to watch the sunrise. Home is located in a quiet and peaceful rural area.
Fire pit (wood provided) & front porch
Front porch had table and chairs +2 rockers with a small side table. Nice quality porch furniture!
Quiet, peaceful view from front porch

Great location to visit Grand Canyon! Only a 30 minute drive to the park. Clean and had all the amenities that we needed. Very quiet area. Loved the big porch and rocking chairs with a view of the snow covered top of Humphreys Peak. We did not have a chance to enjoy the fire pit but it looked very nice. Really appreciated the duel reclining sofa at the end of a day of Grand Canyon adventures. Would definitely rent again.

Great comfortable place with an incredible centralized location. Being able to spend time in Sedona, Page, and around the Grand Canyon opened up a ton of experiences in the area. The amenities were all excellent and the extra offerings of snacks, waters, and basic cleaning and laundry needs were perfect. It was quiet and secluded. We would come back here again in a heartbeat.

The most perfect stay to start our 10 year anniversary trip. Things we loved about this home:- the mattresses are awesome! they are a more firm memory foam that is perfect for your back after a long day of hiking.- well stocked on everything: coffee pods, laundry detergent, kitchen utensils, shampoo/conditioner/bodywash.- they have a brand new sofa that is different than in the picture. it's leather and has electric recliners built in that are so comfortable.- we love the views of the mountains in the distance from the peaceful front porch.- hosts were super communicative and had great suggestions.

What an excellent property! We enjoyed every moment we stayed at The Retreat. Keyless, so no worries about the arrival time (very convenient because of the long distances). So quiet and comfortable. Nice terrace to relax and enjoy your breakfast. Highly recommended!

Very nice place to stay within minutes of the Grand Canyon. Pat and Kristy were wonderful hosts in responding to our requests and meeting our needs. You're out on the open prairie and can sit in a rocker on the porch or sit by a fire. You can experience sunrises and sunsets. We had a wonderful stay

They thought of everything

Well-appointed with thoughtful extras! Though the inside was cozy, our favorite spot was the covered front porch perfect for coffee & dinner. Note: the sofa bed isn’t a pullout but a pull together so not a true bed but it was fine. Would definitely stay again & recommend!

Peaceful getaway close to Grand Canyon

Enjoyed our stay at this peaceful home. Close to Grand Canyon so we enjoyed our days at the canyon and evenings looking at stars from the outdoor seating area of the house. While it was only myself and my husband, this home is perfect for small families. Games and TV inside, and grill outside make it a perfect quiet getaway. Pat and Kristy were always quick to respond and very hospitable. We came here after our elopement and they had left us a card and treats which was so very thoughtful of them! 10/10 recommend.

Perfect Base Spot For Visiting Grand Canyon

My husband and I stayed here for 3 days while we explored the Grand Canyon area and it was the perfect little retreat outside of busier outside park area. Beautiful sunrises over the mountains, and a nice fire pit area for enjoying the stars at night too! All of the little details are covered to make your stay relaxing and care free. The front porch was an amazing bonus spot to relax too. Having the washer and drier helped us to pack lighter and leave with clean clothes. This would definitely be a bonus for a family.

This home was a comfortable distance, 20-30 minutes, from Grand Canyon Village, giving us access to groceries and other supplies on the way to and from. Compact and efficient, it also gave us sunset, moonrise and dark skies for star gazing.

Outstanding Ranch Getaway!

My family stayed here as a jump-off point for a day-trip to the Grand Canyon. Sure, there are hotels that are closer to the GC, but a little house like this lets you barbeque your own meals, and sit by the fire and look up at all the stars at night, which we did. There is a little twin house about 70 yards away, just far enough you don't really hear the guests at that house. Otherwise, you have a 180 degree view from the deck, from which you can see for miles. The house itself is perfectly clean and well-equipped, and everything worked - TV, internet, washer/dryer, grill, A/C - everything. Everything seemed to be new and was perfect. The owners, who were quick to respond to any questions with a high level of detail, obviously have a passion for providing a great experience to renters. Fantastic!

This property was heaven. Very private, great amenities and close to the Grand Canyon. So many thoughtful items...outdoor and indoor games, firewood cut and ready to go for the fire pit, even seasonings and kitchen supplies like foil and plastic wrap. Saw wildlife including jack rabbits, fox, lots of birds. Loved it here!

Great stay for out visit to Grand Canyon

We stayed 2 nights over our Spring Break trip with our 3 kids (ages 5, 8 and 10). An easy drive into the National Park and the property was stocked with essentials and games for the kids to play, which was very helpful by this point in our trip (this was our 4th stop). Property managers were super helpful when i needed to adjust our check-in day about 2 months before our stay to add a stop on our trip before we stayed here.
