Step Back in Time, Stay in Comfort

Your private guest cottage shares the grounds of the Walter Lee Smith House, a Tudor Revival farmhouse built in 1926 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Mature landscaping—including shady Chinese elms and a towering Aleppo pine in the front yard—creates a rare, park-like retreat in the heart of Phoenix.

While you enjoy modern comforts—fast WiFi, keyless entry, a fully equipped kitchen, and in-unit laundry—you’ll also be surrounded by the history of North Central Phoenix. The main Tudor farmhouse is rarely used, so you’ll have the privacy of your own 800 sq. ft. cottage plus the atmosphere of a century-old estate.

For guests traveling with pets, a dog door and fenced yard make the space especially welcoming for four-legged companions.

Outdoor Space

Enjoy three patios shaded by mature trees, perfect for your morning coffee, a day of remote work, or an evening glass of wine. The Aleppo pine anchors the yard and adds a sense of permanence and calm that’s rare in Phoenix.

Guest Access & Privacy

Guests have their own entrance, private parking, and secure keyless check-in, ensuring a completely independent stay.

Location

The cottage is freeway-close and minutes from:

Uptown & Downtown Phoenix for dining, arts, and nightlife

Spring Training stadiums for baseball fans

Biltmore area for shopping and dining

Beatitudes Campus

John C. Lincoln and St. Joseph's hospitals

Desert preserves and trails for outdoor adventures

Wonderful place

This is our second stay and has become our favorite place. We travel to phoenix to visit our daughter and we take our dog. This place is just perfect. Great location, close to our golf course and restaurants. The fenced yard is great for the dog and has options for outdoor seating that we enjoy. Always wish i could stay longer!

Great Visit

We wanted to be in central Phoenix and this was a great location - in a nice neighborhood and felt very safe. The space was perfect. Our only observation was that if you use the sofa bed in the living room, the blinds/shades need to be replaced as it gets very bright early in the morning. The parking area could also use a light.

Charming Cottage

This little cottage was just perfect for our visit. Very cozy, spacious lvg rm & bdrm, private location, comfy bed, great outdoor spaces front & back to relax. Close to many different amenities, very easy access. Note to travelers: 1-There are no markings to the driveway entrance, which is actually on N 7th Ave (around the corner from the main house street address), it's easy to miss. So look for the neighbor's green mailbox for a landmark. 2-The oven runs 25°-50° hot, so adjust accordingly. 3-Bring your Roku (as recommended by the Host)! ...Not deal breakers at all! Tracy @ 'A Great Stay' was extremely helpful with a reservation snafu! Thank you Tracy! We would definitely stay here again!

Phoenix vacation

Just wanted to say that my wife and I truly enjoyed our stay at this property. We were a little hesitant because there were no previous reviews for us to read and that made my wife a little nervous. My response to that was, "well, there were no negative reviews". We think reviews are an important way for the next guests to determine whether they want to rent or not. I will say that everything was actually better than we expected. The place was well equipped and nicely furnished. Plenty of indoor and outdoor space and perfect for what we were looking for. The TV was a little confusing and several channels said, "lost signal", possibly due to some high wind. We couldn't always find the channels we were looking for, but we were on vacation and not there to watch TV. Very relaxing front and back patios, perfect for happy hour! This place is very close proximity to stores, restaurants and the golf courses we played all week. We had a great week!

This was just the perfect place for us. We travel to phoenix to visit our daughter and this place is just a gem! So nice to have the outdoor space for our dog and the furnishings were so comfortable. Really has everything we needed and close to our favorite restaurants and golf course. We certainly hope to make this our home away from home whenever we visit Phoenix.

Hidden gem

This was the perfect place to hunker down, quarantine, and work remotely. It’s super quiet, clean, and centrally located to a number of attractions, grocery and hiking. The fenced yard was plenty of room for my dog to stretch her legs. Plus the seating areas are great. There’s always a place to sit in the sun or shade- whatever your preference. I’ll be booking again!

property was clean and with all the supplies needed to make us feel at home.

Place was clean, plenty parking area, easy access to downtown. If I have to ask for something would be screen doors. We rented the last week of October and weather was perfect for daytime breezy but my wife is a magnet for mosquitoes. Another Request is that communication goes via email, this has nothing to do with our hosts but with Vrbo, we booked just 2 days before our stay and had hard time retrieving the our messages since we didn't have good access to internet while on the road, we are your 1% that does not get email on cell-phone. Texts for us are more convenient. Over all we had a great stay with all the comforts as promised and more. We will try too book again when we come back to Phoenix.
