Midtown Detached Studio Cottage-Heated Pool & Hot Tub-Covered-Gated Parking

Renovated guest cottage. Pool built April 2022. Hot tub heating included. See below for information on pool heating prices. The Cottage is a separate building over 100 feet from our main house. King Bed. Full Kitchen. Exquisite resort-style bathroom. Private and separate entrance from the alley with a gated and covered parking spot.

Woodlea Historic Neighborhood is lush and green. Our home is on a large lot in this welcoming and diverse neighborhood. We have this detached building in the back that we renovated in 2016. This studio suite style cottage has a kitchen with refrigerator, freezer, large sink, 2 burner cooktop, and microwave/convection oven combo unit. An exquisite modern, resort-style bathroom. Walk in closet. Washer/Dryer. 50 inch Roku Smart TV. DVD player (with many DVD movies available in the cottage). Reading library too!

*Heated Pool & Hot tub - Completed in April 2022. This luxurious resort style pool came out of our dreams. Hot tub heating is included. Pool heating is optional and available with a surcharge since not all guests want the pool heated and cover the cost of gas. If you want the pool to be comfortable for swimming during your stay we recommend pool heating at these times and the rate we charge will be the following prices multiplied by the number of nights of your reservation (we discount for stays of a week or longer):
January and February $60
March $50
April $40
May 1 - 15 $30
May 15 - September 30 No heating needed
October $30
November $40
December $50
For example, a 5 night stay in March would be $250 for pool heating.

A solar cover is used to help heat and retain heat in the pool. During your stay we ask guests to return the cover into place when not using the pool and particularly overnight. This allows us to charge reasonable heating prices and keep down our gas usage. Also the heater will not be able to maintain a comfortable swimming temperature if the cover is not used in this manner.

The backyard, including pool is shared with us (the homeowners). We are quiet and will only occasionally have guests over. If we do we will let you know. We do not allow our guests to have other guests visit during your stay. No parties. Quiet hours (no audible noise outside) are 8 PM - 8 AM. Pool & Hot Tub hours are 8 AM - 10 PM. Strictly enforced.

The lot backs to a vehicle accessible alley. You will have your own private back entrance through an electronic gate giving your own private, covered, and secured parking spot.

Midtown is a great place to stay to get around and explore all that Phoenix has to offer. We are close to downtown entertainment and sporting venues. Many great restaurants with diverse culinary choices. Are you a road warrior and want an alternative to a hotel? The secret about Midtown is that the daily commute is a reverse commute in pretty much every direction.

Wonderful stay

The house was wonderful. We loved relaxing in the hot tub each night and walking around the cute neighborhood looking at all the different houses. We went for spring training games in Mesa and hiking in the Superstition Mountains, it was a great base for both. Sarah was very kind to greet us when when arrived and other than that we had all the privacy we wanted for our week away. Thanks for sharing your space with us!

Amazing little spot in midtown

My college age daughter and I loved our stay here. It was clean and cozy and the pool was amazing. Sarah and family are sweet, kind hosts and so helpful. The bed was comfy, the bathroom was spa like and the kitchen was perfect. We had long days of moving my daughter into her apartment on GCU campus and this was the perfect retreat for a nap or at the end of day. We will return for sure!

Everything We Expected ... and More

A great property with the best hosts. Noel and Sarah are amazing people. They made us feel at home as soon as we arrived. It was terrific getting to know them. The property was exactly what we wanted and needed after a trip to the Canyon. Everything we required --- and more --- was at the property. The security of our vehicle and the pool and hot tub were huge bonuses. The property was extremely close to a lot of great restaurants and bars, too. If you're hoping to stay at a great property in Phoenix, THIS is your place.

Private hideaway cottage

Enjoyed my 6 night stay at Woodlea. Very fortunate to have found this cottage at the last minute. Good communication with the owners. They live on the property but I only saw Sarah a couple of times and she was very friendly and extremely helpful. Solid, safe and comfortable space in a great, quiet neighborhood. I was in town for a conference at the convention center and found it an easy 15 minute drive. The unit has everything you need and more. Comfortable king size bed as well a spacious and modern bathroom and kitchen. Highly recommend!

The property had pigeon poop on all the seats around the pool, on the rim of the pool and in the pool. There was also a dead bird in the pool. The room was clean and lovely but the pool was terrible. I was swimming in the pool when the dead bird was found and a day later I was really sick and continued to be sick for a couple of days.

It was easy to communicate with the owner, very responsive. Unfortunately I cut my stay short due to a problem with the water heater. But the pool is pretty and the security gate is great. The kitchen was made for tall people.

Perfect location, perfect host.

Woodlea is located in an historic neighborhood that is safe, well-taken of, and near many locations of interest. The cottage is spotless, with a comfortable bed and plenty of amenities for a relaxing stay. The pool and hot tub are amazing. Sarah is an amazing hostess! Her knowledge of the area and recommendations for restaurants and areas of interest were spot-on. One of the best of VRBO!

Little gem

Woodlea was a perfect little spot. It is close to GCU campus- which was important to us. We felt safe, comfortable, and welcome. It is in the owners backyard… they are very hospitable and kind, and encourage use of their amenities- pool and fire pit. We greatly appreciated their hospitality.

Absolutely perfect!!!

Our only concern about this delightful guest house is “will it be available next time we want to rent it?!?!” It is exactly what we’ve been hoping to find: lodging as close as possible to our son & his family (who happen to live on the next block over). The Salts were always available for any questions or needs we had, and so gracious and friendly. We are looking forward to staying there again, and if it’s already booked, we may just have to change our travel dates to when it’s available!

This cottage was cozy and comfortable; it felt like home the minute we arrived. The hostess and host were warm and friendly; and worked hard to ensure that we were satisfied.
