Cool get-away, Excellent choice

We decided to get away from the hot valley temps. We choose this delightful Cottage, BEST choice ever! From day one of our communication with Dara ( the owner), renting this home was easy, and smooth. We even decided to add a week to our original booking, and once again Dara was very accommodating. When we walked through the door of their Cottage....we were blown away, it was everything the site explained it would be. Dara provides such a binder of information before you get there, it took all my guess work out of packing. They provided all the amenities you could ever think of. The location in the quiet neighborhood, was close enough for us to walk to town for a nice dinner (Mexican- El Corral-👍). We spent a lot of time on the porch in the nice temperatures. Our other day trips were to Bearizona and Kaibab Lake, great trip, and all within 10 miles of the cottage. When we did cook and hang out at home, the evenings were comfy either outside or watching movies. Our two week get away was so nice and relaxing, this will be an annual trip for us. Thank you Dara and Mike.

Happy and sad

Arrived for our stay late in the evening to a great looking place. On entry found that lights in the home were not working. Called the property owner and informed of the issue. Suspecting a circuit breaker issue I asked if I could try to reset the breaker. Breaker failed and I advised of failure. I was told that the problem could not be resolved until the following day. Property owner said to find an alternative location. Due to the hour I

Williams Trip

The description is spot on. It is a very pleasant two-bedroom cottage with all the amenities needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Williams Cottage. Dara was just a text message away and responded quickly The cottage is very close to downtown Williams and the surrounding areas. Even though we are 'local' we enjoyed our four days in the Williams area playing tourist. My only suggestion - make sure the weeds around the front are removed. It would also be beneficial to replace the cracked up sidewalk. Someone could trip and fall with the missing pieces of sidewalk. Outside of that - this is a great place to stay - we would do it again. And have already referred the property to some friends! Thanks
