Modern Flagstaff Home w/ BBQ: Walk Downtown!
Guest rating: 4.9 / 5
Overview
This modern townhome offers a 1,300-square-foot vacation rental in a quiet residential pocket of Flagstaff, Arizona, roughly a 2-mile walk to downtown shops, galleries, and restaurants. Recently renovated with contemporary finishes, the three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home has an open, bright layout with hardwood floors and vaulted ceilings. It's registered locally as a licensed short-term rental (STR-013562, TPT-21372972) and managed by Evolve, which provides 24/7 support.
Rooms & Layout
The home sleeps guests across three bedrooms: a California king in the primary, a queen in the second, and a twin/queen bunk configuration in the third, making it flexible for families or groups of mixed ages. As a two-story townhome, stairs are required to reach all bedrooms and both full bathrooms, with only two steps needed for entry into the main level.
Kitchen & Indoor Living
The fully equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse sink, a Keurig, cooking basics and spices, and a four-person dining table, making self-catering easy. Indoor comforts include an electric fireplace, a large flat-screen Smart TV, board games, in-unit washer/dryer, a Nest smart thermostat, and central heating and air conditioning.
Outdoor Space
Guests have access to a private patio with outdoor seating, distant mountain views, and a gas grill, ideal for barbecuing after a day outdoors. Parking is provided via a driveway (2 vehicles) and garage (2 vehicles); note that street parking is prohibited and the driveway is notably steep, which can be a concern for low-clearance vehicles or those with roof racks.
Location & Nearby Dining
The property sits about a 2-mile walk from downtown Flagstaff and roughly a mile or less from several restaurants, including Taverna Modern Mediterranean, TeppanFuji, The Porch, Angie's, and Woodlands Cafe. Flagstaff's train station is about 3.3 km away, a bus stop is under a kilometer away, and Flagstaff Pulliam Airport is roughly 4.4 km distant, while regional attractions like Lowell Observatory, Walnut Canyon National Monument, and the San Francisco Peaks are all within driving range.
Best for
This townhome suits families or small groups seeking a self-catered home base for exploring Flagstaff, thanks to its three flexible bedrooms, full kitchen, and washer/dryer. It's also a strong fit for outdoor-oriented travelers and sightseers, given the walkable proximity to downtown, nearby hiking and ski destinations like Arizona Snowbowl and San Francisco Peaks, and the private patio with gas grill for evenings in.
Travel tips
Bring a vehicle with adequate ground clearance and no roof-mounted racks, since the driveway is steep and can scrape low cars or damage roof equipment when entering the garage. Street parking is prohibited and enforced by towing, so plan to use the driveway or garage exclusively. The home is about a 2-mile walk to downtown Flagstaff, so comfortable walking shoes or a car are recommended for reaching restaurants and shops, and a bus stop under a kilometer away offers an alternative for getting around.
What guests say
Guests consistently praise the townhome's cleanliness, modern and thoughtfully arranged decor, and well-equipped kitchen, often describing the space as comfortable and exactly as advertised. Many highlight the quiet residential setting combined with convenient walkable access to downtown Flagstaff, restaurants, and shopping, along with the bonus of private garage access. The main recurring criticism concerns the driveway, which several guests describe as unusually steep, posing a risk of scraping for low-clearance vehicles or damaging roof racks and garage doors on larger SUVs or trucks. Overall sentiment is strongly positive, with multiple reviewers saying they would return or recommend the home as a base for exploring the area.
