Exactly as advertised, an oasis in the desert. After the glitz and glam of Vegas it was nice to recharge the batteries at your beautiful house. Thanks again for letting us hold our daughters wedding reception there also, the backyard, the patio, the pool fantastic. All we can say is that after staying here you can really understand why people have made the comments they have made about this property ! Thanks again Ron.

Where do we begin? Well, first by thanking Ron for being a wonderful host. His level of caring and service was phenomenal. Second, by complimenting him on the quality of his property. It is truly a litle piece of paradise. We spent five glorious summer weeks at this property and did not want to leave. We didn't even notice the heat between the air conditioning and the pool. Having the tennis court for our morning game was great, followed by a dip in the pool to cool off. Then off to visit the sites of Las Vegas that were all easy to get to from our location. We were even able to have family visit with us for a week with all the room (they loved the place). The gym was handy for our workouts and we were able to cook some of our own meals with the spacious kitcen and BBQ grill (When we needed a little break from all the great Las Vegas restaurants). Nothing beats sitting by the pool on a sunny Vegas day looking out over the beautiful back yard, the blue sky and the mountains. We cannot recommend this property highly enough to do it justice. If you have the opportunity, you must visit the Oasis at least once!

We have a 5 yr experience renting in Las Vegas and this is our top choice by far. We ALWAYS love to stay at this place. It is the best of everything- close to the Strip, dog friendly, huge yard, washer/dryer, owner friendly (and he really cares you had a good stay). Make sure you tell Ron what you are planning, whether you will make large meals in the kitchen, bringing a pet, or expecting to use the hot tub or pool- he will check it for you. Cleaning is included- no worry about a big fee if you overlook something small!

4 couples stayed from May 10-17. Lots of room for up to 5 couples (more if you want to share bedrooms). Great time, great place, very well-maintained, great location. Lots of use of the pool, hot tub & tennis court kept us busy & was a perfect contrast when we weren't on the strip. We even walked to Silverton Casino a couple of nights when we felt the urge for a little more gambling. Ron was so helpful, very quick to respond to our questions & needs & we had our refund promptly the day after we got home. Our only suggestion would be to add dressers or wardrobes to the bedroom above the garage & the den for clothes storage & mini-blinds on the glass door on the den/bedroom for privacy. Also, a full propane tank for the BBQ would have been nice, to avoid the inconvenience of running out while cooking & having to send someone after a couple of drinks to get a refill.
We had a great vacation & would highly recommend staying here & would stay again without a doubt. Thanks Ron.

We got married in the amazing backyard May 1st 2009. Our friends and family couldn't stop talking about how wonderful the yard and house is. Ron (the owner) was THE BEST!!! Everyone keeps asking if we will do a get together there every year. Our kids and dogs loved everything about the place. Thanks Ron for making our stay so amazing!

Thank you Ron....We couldn't have been more pleased with your "oasis in the desert". I would also like to thank you for always making yourself available to us. Hosting 50 people across country was stressful enough without having to worry about the small details. Our stay was perfect!!
Thank you again Ron for everything!

WOW. What a wonderful House to spend a vacation. We had so muh fun with the tennis, hot tub, large yard. Our 2 dogs had as much fun as we did. We spent all day at the house and then some went to the casino at night. Silverado Casino was only a mile away and very one won something! Our 3 year old grandson cried when it was time to leave and our 9 year old grandson said "this is the house of my Dreams" We are already looking forward to going back!!!!!

This is the 2nd time we've stayed at this property. Both times for 21st birthdays. We love this place--plenty to do right there with the pool, spa, tennis, basketball court & exercise room. Several of us didn't even go to the casinos this time. Ron is great to work with, he responds to emails usually within the hour. We rented the 2 guest houses and they are every bit as nice as the main house. I would recommend this to anyone. We plan to come back for my mom's 80th--any excuse we can find!

We rented the house because we had family in town for our wedding and we needed a place to have our rehearsal dinner. Wow. Everyone was blown away by the house. It was the perfect place for what we needed. Ron is very accomidating and helped us feel at ease. I had many friends asking about the house for the next time they come to Las Vegas. Thanks Ron!

What a wonderful time we had at your house.My son had his wedding and reception in the backyard which we couldn't have asked for a more perfect setting. With the mountains, pool, tennis court,etc. Many at the wedding plan on staying there in the future. And no, the pictures don't do the house and landscaping justice.

Stayed at the Paradise Sept. 20th to the 27th. Great place. Ron was very helpful on all things. Need an extra TV for was hard in the evenings to take away from Girls watching HGTV and in the morning the Granddaughter was watching cartoons. Should have a guys room only...... If your looking for a home with all and have a large group like us this is a must. Thanks Ron. The Michael Bina Family

We had the most wonderful time in your home. It was a perfect fit for our family and we really utilized all of it. We loved the pool and tennis courts, the separate gym. It was very satisfying for my husband and I to observe our family enjoying themselves and interacting with eachother, In a way that only could have happened under one roof together We also loved the way the rooms were all secluded from eachother, lending much needed privacy for family's with babies and small infants. Wonderful, we wish we could own the place. It is true, the photos don't do it justice.
Thanks for your quick response to my false alarm the morning of the funeral. Tonia

We've stayed at this location quite a few times now. The kitchen was nicely stocked with all we needed. Everything worked OK except a bathroom and the hot tub. There's a lot of lovely new furnishings, towels, etc. We hear it will be upgraded again soon. This place is always good to us.

We (3 couples, a friend and 2 dogs) stayed here the labor day long weekend and had a great time! We played tennis, basketball and went swimming all weekend. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing, comfortable place to rent. The pictures do not do justice to this house and we look forward to renting this house again very soon!

This is our 2nd time at this home and we love staying there while in Vegas. Only minutes from the strip too. Our favorite part is the beautiful pool and huge grassy yard. I can't wait for our next stay in October.

We just returned form this wonderful home and hope to return soon. It truly is the best of both worlds; just a few minutes from the Strip, yet private and quiet. The home is very spacious and has everything one needs. We enjoyed playing tennis, basketball, and swimming during the day and gambling and shows at night. My family and I plan on making this a regular vacation spot!

We were Vegas locals looking for a big enough place for the family to gather for a week. This place is so homey, it didn't take long for us to feel settled in. Your home exceeded our expectations and then some. From the tennis and basketball, to the workout room, pool and large jacuzzi, there was something for everyone. Our entire family enjoyed a magical week with memories for the young and old to treasure. We thank you for such an incredible experience.

Outstanding accommodations!!!
We were down here a week for a conference and what a pleasure to have a home away from home to retreat to away from the strip.
Ron, your home is as beautiful as you are a gracious host. Rest assured we will be seeing you next year if at all possible.

We stayed at this rental home while also hosting my daughters small wedding reception in the backyard.

The house was meticulously maintained and had everything needed to make our stay comfortable.

The backyard is spectacular with its lush landscaping, views of the mountains and patio and pool.

The property is hust minutes from the strip in a very quiet neighborhood.

We had a wonderful time and loved staying at this property.

Thank you Ron.... hope to stay here in the future

Wow we just returned from a little R & R in Vegas and this place was the perfect setting.

We were 5 couples in this very comfortable home only thing missing was food.

Everyone enjoyed all the Home and Property had to offer.

This was our first visit to Vegas where it was hard to get the group to leave the property.

Your pic's don't do this property justice.

We will be back and sure to tell all my contacts this beats the Strip Hotel hands down.

Thanks Ron for all your Tips all your local recommendations were great.

Will be in touch soon to book our next get away.

Dear Ron,
We rent homes in Las Vegas approx. 3 -4 times a year to gather our friends and family for various celebrations. This was by far our favorite house, the size of the property, the comforts of the home, the convenience and the peace. We didn't want to leave! Our little doggies are resting up, they had so much fun too.Thank you for sharing your home with us... We can't wait to come back.

Our family (2 adults, 2 boys, 1 dog) stayed here for 7 nights over Spring Break. We had a most wonderful stay at this beautiful house and in fact for the first 3 days we were so comfortable we didn't even leave to visit Las Vegas or do any sightseeing. The grounds are beautifully maintained and landscaped. It would be a lovely setting for a garden party or get together.
The interior of the house is spotlessly clean with everything you need. All the bedrooms have their own bathroom and there is lots of room to spread out. We used the tennis court every day (sorry Ron for all the balls that went over the fence!) and the boys loved the hot tub. I walked the dog around the neighborhood and enjoyed the peaceful setting.
We will definately be back!

What a difference a week makes!! Last week our family was lounging around the pool and hot tub at Ron's beautiful Las Vegas home. Now we are waiting for yet another snow storm here in MO!! Our first vrbo experience was perfect! I can't say enough about the home, the grounds and the owner. Thank you, Ron, for sharing with us. We loved having the pre wedding brunch at such a beautiful setting. Our three little grandchildren loved every second of their stay and gave up the hot tub only to visit the M&M store! My son already checked and Christmas is booked!! Thank you again and we hope to see you soon.

Our group of 8 visits Las Vegas for the NASCAR race every year. We decided that we wanted a more secluded, quiet area to stay rather than at the casinos. This provided the privacy we wanted with the ability to come and go as we pleased without hassle. We used the hot tub, pool, and exercise room. Most of our party are runners so we found the area in the vicinity of the home to be idea for a nice morning jog. This house was truly amazing and we want to return every year to enjoy the weekend at NASCAR. We have already passed the secret on to our other friends. Lastly, Ron is great and personalizes everything to meet your needs. From the Idaho NASCAR GROUP

The accomodations and hospitality were 1st rate. Not only was Ron able to accomodate our "crew' very comfortably, but his hospitality was second to none. When we come back to Las Vegas we hopefully will be able to stay here again.
Thanks again Ron.

This house was a wonderful accommodation for
our week in Las Vegas. My oldest son was getting
married and I have a large family, quite a few of
them were flying in from Ireland and England. This
house gave us an opportunity to hang out and relax
and not be constantly distracted by the bright light
and loud noises Las Vegas is know for. We were
able to have a nice family BBQ one night in the
backyard, it was nice to be able to make our own
food and be able to go off to in our own space (the
young ones playing basketball ball while us oldies
sat inside drinking our tea and chatted). It was our
home away from home… thanks!

Staying at this beautiful home has now become a family tradition. We have rented out this house 4 times in the last 18 months and all of us can't wait to visit again. We are a huge family w/ lots of little ones and this house offers every amenity. Ron has been absolutely fabulous and the memories weve made are held so very close to our hearts. nothing is better than waking up and having everyone you love under one roof to cook breakfast, hang out at the pool, play some tennis, and bbq dinner with. not to mention all the fun vegas has to offer. This house is deserving of a superior recommendation.

Our "Girl's Get-away" this year was perfect in your gorgeous home. Everyone was comfortable and the pool and tennis courts - and especially the jacuzzi - were lots of fun. As a travel agent I can definitely recommend your accommodations and the convenience of being so close to the strip, yet far enough away to get away from it when we needed a good rest. Thank you!!!

As another guest noted, the pics don't do this place justice. The place and accomodations were more than we had expected. We had a family get together and everyone was amazed. Your own huge yard with pool, jacuzzi, tennis court, basketball court, exercise room at a great price! The owners were very sweet and kind and were a delight to work with. We will definite recommend to others and reserve it for next year and the years to come! Thank you very much, Faithfulls!
