Experience Yuma's History at the Crim House perfect for a stay or family venues
Guest rating: 5.0 / 5
Experience Yuma's History at the Crim House is a smoke-free, kid-friendly whole-home stay in California, United States, designed as a “home away from home” for vacations, groups, and small family venues. Inside, it emphasizes comfort and entertainment with leather seating, huge memory-foam bean bags, a 72" smart TV, and a dedicated game room set up like a “Hold Em’ Cell” with an original 1970s eight-person poker table plus family games. The kitchen is positioned for group cooking and dining, featuring a new 5-burner electric stove with an oven that can function as an air fryer, plus microwave and cooking gear; outdoors, a patio and full-size grill support backyard meals. Sleeping is arranged across two king bedrooms and one queen bedroom, with extra thick queen mattresses available to expand capacity; the home also includes in-house laundry (washer, ironing board) and climate control (air conditioning and heating). Outdoors, guests have a corner-lot setting with desert-style front landscaping and a calmer, shaded backyard area with a water feature and fire table, plus ample vehicle and trailer parking including a covered RV-type shade structure behind a locked gate. The location is close to Downtown Yuma access and transit options, with multiple bus stops within roughly half a mile and the Yuma train station about 1.4 km away, plus a selection of nearby restaurants such as River City Grill and Mr. G Drive-In around 0.5 km away.
Best for
Best for families, friend groups, and multi-household trips who want a fully equipped home base with a stocked kitchen, multiple sleeping configurations (2 kings + 1 queen, plus extra queen mattresses), and spaces to socialize like the patio, grill area, and game room. It also suits travelers bringing “fun toys” (trailers/ATVs/side-by-sides) thanks to substantial on-site parking, a covered RV-type shade structure, and a locked-gate parking option.
Travel tips
If you’re arriving without a car or want a backup option, several bus stops (including 4th Avenue @ 5th Street and 3rd Street @ 8th Avenue) are within about 0.4–0.6 km, and Yuma train station is around 1.4 km away; Yuma International Airport is about 7.1 km away. Parking is a key advantage here: there’s covered parking for one vehicle plus street-side parking for up to six vehicles, and space to unhitch and store a trailered setup behind a locked gate under a 25' covered shade structure. Note that exterior voice/video recording cameras are installed at the front door, back door, front of home, and carport side; tampering can trigger fees and cancellation under house rules.
