Anniversary Getaway
Erica made us feel right at home in this 1920 pueblo. The home was very clean, full of charm and was fully stocked for our stay. She added personal touches that made our getaway even more special. We highly recommend this little home - we'd love to come back sometime and enjoy it all over again.

College move-in
Fantastic location - very close to the University. I was worried about a historic home in Arizona in August but the air conditioning was super cold. Everything was perfect. We will definitely try to stay at this location again in the future.

1920’s style
Erica is amazing! I loved the welcome we received and all of the amazing accommodations. My parents house was built in 1921. I love the original style of the house. The original hard wood floors, cabinets, and walls. Brought back so many memories for me. This home has everything you need to cook, do laundry, and so much more.
