Really enjoyed our stay. House was a bit north but in a quiet neighborhood. Being in between Scottsdale and Cave Creek allowed is to enjoy both towns. Owner was great and responded promptly to any requests we had. Overall, a nice place to stay.

This property was wonderful. The outdoor area was perfect, with the hot tub and pool and the sunset views were gorgeous. The house was very large and spacious and was perfect for our family of five. We have both teenagers and a ten year old son, and they all had a wonderful time. The location is also close to a lot of hiking trails and lots of golf courses, which was an added bonus. We would gladly rent this property again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property has everything you need to have a relaxing vacation. The back yard view is just amazing and the view from the master balcony is to die for. We saw some of the best sunsets ever. Hot tub was appreciated. The host was great and very responsive. One of the best VRBO experiences we have had.

I found the home to be poorly managed. All furnishings and accessories should be thrown out to the dump. Cleanliness was poor, a deep clean of the place is badly needed. The carpet should be removed and replaced. The garage should be cleaned and the carpet replaced. this place is way overpriced

Great place - plenty of room inside and out. Very peaceful neighborhood and back yard. Could not ask for a more relaxing place. Hot tub, outside fire pit and a beautiful pool. Kitchen stocked up very well. Close and convenient to grocery stores. Highly recommend it.

My family (including 2 teenagers) have rented a number of houses across the country and this is one of our favorites! The house is very clean and was well stocked with everything we needed! We thoroughly enjoyed the elevated views of the desert while sitting in the hot tub. The sunsets were amazing at night and we enjoyed watching the hot air balloons over morning coffee. Holly was great host! She was very responsive to all of our needs. We generally do not stay at the same place twice, but we would definitely consider another stay here!

Surprise getaway
I booked this property as a surprise getaway and it did not disappoint. The home was clean and spacious and the outside was spectacular with the pool, hot tub, fire pit, and grill. The views are spectacular with beautiful sunsets and the pictures do not do this property justice. Holly was great in answering questions prior to arrival and during the stay. We had a blast and would definitely stay here again.

Great Family Get-Away!
In a time when vacations are challenging for many reasons, this Scottsdale get-away was perfect for our family of four! Spacious and well appointed home, particularly with great kitchen and BBQ for cooking at home. The back yard, with pool, deck, hot tub, sitting and eating area was our favorite place to spend time, especially at sunset! As mountain biking and hiking fans, we greatly appreciated the close proximity of Brown's Ranch, offering numerous trails through the saguaro-dotted Sonoran desert.

Incredible value. More spacious than photos show. Upscale neighborhood. 270 degree mountain/sunset views from upper deck. Stunning/tranquil view of natural desert landscape from pool/patio. Very private. Owners very responsive. Nearby towns of Carefee and Cave Creek have great appeal. Abundant golf nearby. Legend Trail golf just up street, upscale course but affordable. Kids loved hot tub and pool. Pool not heated but fine with hot weather we had. Upstairs room also great if someone in party needs quiet to work. Great walking/running neighborhood, little to no traffic. Highly recommend this place, has me considering this area for retirement. Can’t stop thinking of the views......

Pictures don’t do it justice. We enjoyed our stay and were sad to leave. The owners were very generous and understanding. Neighbors are some of the friendliest. We wish we could have enjoyed the pool, it’s not heated, and the time we were there (mid April) it was too cold to swim in. All in all, a very wonderful stay. Thanks again Holly!!! Best regards

I enjoy the neighbor, as I've stayed nearby before. Pleased with owner communication, and property description. As reported previously, some issues with cleanliness. Minor irritations, and nothing that prevented full enjoyment, but there none the less.
Our stay was very enjoyable, and at a reasonable cost.

My wife and I rented this beautiful home for three weeks we were there for me to have a surgery and recovery time. This place is perfect for relaxation and quiet time, we enjoyed sunsets every evening and walks around the quiet neighborhood. Fully stocked kitchen was great for cooking . Holly and Peter were great to accommodate us and help us in all of our needs while we were there

The house was extremely spacious and very clean. It was perfectly located for all of the first class golf courses in Scottsdale. Our party consisted of four people and we certainly found it gave us tons of room throughout the house. However, the one drawback (for which we should have paid more attention to during evaluation & house selection) was that the house only had two full baths. We had to stagger taking showers whenever coming back from golf & going out, and it was certainly inconvenient for the fourth bedroom which had no full bath easily available. On the positive side, the owner was very easy to deal with and responded quickly to any question that we had which was very important for any vacation rental. Our entire group truly appreciated how helpful & accessible Holly was during the entire pre & post trip process. The place was extremely well kept and clean. We loved having a fully equipped kitchen and gathering around it for breakfast & snacks. We choose to explore neighboring restaurants in the area and loved eating out for meals.
