Incredible views, location amazing, almost perfect getaway!
Fountain Hills is quickly becoming one of our favorite getaway locations. This home was perfectly situated above a golf course, the pictures in the listing only give you a glimpse of how beautiful the views are. The pool is perfect, the outdoor space, although a bit aged, is really spectacular. We spent 95% of our waking time on the back deck.
The interior of the home was very clean, each room was well equipped and all of the beds were comfortable. Lots of different spaces for a large group. Our four boys had a blast exploring and referred to it as a castle. The shuffleboard was a hit.
The kitchen needs a bit of tlc. The fridge had an odd smell, the gas stove made a clicking sound that was slightly unnerving and the oven temp numbers are rubbed off so it's tough to know what your setting it at. Really, all were fine, but for a beautiful home like this I think it would be worth fixing or updating the older appliances.
The property manager was ok, he was as helpful as he needed to be.
One big suggestion: Replace all of the bath towels in the house. They smell terrible once they get wet, as if they've been used for years and years and the sweaty/mildewy smell just doesn't leave them.
All in all, a near perfect trip. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a great outdoor space/view, and has a large group.
