Lovely spot
Awesome location and loved the amenities. The hot tub is a real hit once the sun goes down and the temperature drops considerably. Rooms were clean and well stocked with towels and blankets.Lots of aditional items such as outside towels for the tub, yoga mats, and kitchen items (good mix of cooking tools and some spices).

Colorful Cactus was a disappointment
disappointment. Yard not maintained weeds everywhere, hot awful (not able to heat above 99, half of jets don't work, water level low). outside lighting missing bulbs dangerous at night. couch was dirty, lot of wear and tear. cigarette buts on back porch mat. no games or entertainment at property. this was by far the least maintained property I have rented.

A home away from home
We met my daughter and grandkids here for wonderful vacation! We used all the amenities and enjoyed cooking together in the kitchen. It was so helpful to have two full bathrooms! We will fondly remember sitting around the spacious table, hanging out on the roomy couch, and gazing at the stars from the hot tub. Highly recommend!

Just what we were looking for!
For us, the place was perfect. Good sized place with plenty of room to chill out. And, it's a very short drive to a few places to eat, get coffee, etc. Made for an excellent weekend!

Cleanliness could be a lot better
We checked in and check all our rooms and my sister found a clump of hair still in the shower on the drain. I found a stain that I’m hoping is ketchup and not blood on one of the pillows. The blinds in the master room didn’t work and were broken. Just expected more for paying that much money especially for our birthday.
