Best overall property I have stayed. It’s beautiful inside and out. The best Scottsdale has to offer.
10.0 / 10.0
Wonderful property in Carefree Hills. Property is well equipped and very clean. Nice pool and yard area. This is where we spent most of our time. We love the area. Looking forward to returning soon!

We had a great time staying here! The wildlife on the property was impressive! So many bunnies and quail.
The house was very clean and well stocked with basic supplies. The house felt every bit of 4000sqft. Our kids slept in the 2 bedrooms upstairs and they had their own loft/sitting area upstairs as well!
We stayed here in June and loved watching our car thermostat go from 105 down to the upper 90s as we drove from the main part of Scottsdale up to this home. The temp was never an issue. The neighborhood was quiet and just a beautiful area.
The owner was quick to respond with any texts/questions we had!

Excellent Location - quite and well situated. Great as a starting point for hiking in the area and also Scottsdale is within easy reach for best restaurants and shops.
The house is within the carefree hills and wildlife can be enjoyed close to the location. We did not heat the pool as temps were high enough. Tim was easy to reach and very responsive to our questions.

This was the second time that my husband and I have stayed at this beautiful property. The home has everything that you could need. We had such a nice stay, and with the lovely warm weather, we enjoyed sitting outside on the lovely patio everyday. We will definitely plan a return visit in the future.
10.0 / 10.0
The check in was flawless and I love the fact we could park in the garage. The property is lovely and very clean, all the extra kitchen spices and teas were nice to have. We played a couple games and battled on the pinpong table and used the outdoor grill. Unfortunately it was in the 40s/50s during our stay so we did not use the pool but it is setup very nicely and can imagine an amazing summer stay. We had a ladies day and went to the English tea rose for brunch and enjoyed it very much, it’s a small place I recommend making a reservation. We also went to the Buffalo chip to check out the bull riding, small ring and short shows but definitely a fun place for people who like to party. We had lunch at El Encanto, I wish we would have made a reservation for outdoor seating near the indoor pond with ducks, turtles and lush greenery. The food was average but the atmosphere was worth it-super photoesqe and live music. Also did some shopping at frontier town and the prices weren’t inflated to buy gifts for people back home. The only problems we had with the property was the lack of hot water in the master bedroom for showers. Also locks on a couple of doors leading to the backyard and roof area were hard to work, there are directions in the welcome book but I think some folks may have tried operating them without the instructions causing them to be difficult to operate but overall a wonderful stay and definitely recommend.

The large size of this property made it an easy stay for our four adults. The rooms are all large and well appointed. The outdoor space is tranquil with beautiful scenery. The town of Care Free is close for food, etc.

We stayed for 5 nights. The house is awesome with plenty of room to spread out. Kitchen is well stocked. Rooftop is great for sunsets and star gazing. We had the pool heated due to the cool nights. Great location! We didn’t travel more than 20 minutes for shopping, dining and hiking. Any questions were answered quickly. Everyone had a great time!

Five stars to this private, spacious and well appointed desert retreat. Plenty of room to spread out and a wonderful pool / patio area to decompress… it made for a amazing base camp for our various desert adventures. Tim was a responsive owner and made sure we were greeted upon our arrival by a concierge who provided a lay of the land. Highly recommended… we hope to be back soon!

Great property - as pictured and described. Manager provided swift and useful entry and walk thorough. We loved the pool, the decks, the lighting, the walking neighborhood, and location. Enjoyed the night lights and sky from the roof top. Kitchen was upscale and easy to navigate with basic and some not so basic supplies! Highly recommend!

There was an issue with the pool heater when we arrived which was never fully resolved during our stay but was out of the control of the owner. The owner/manager kept in constant contact with us throughout. Aside from that the home was gorgeous, exactly as described, and we would definitely stay again!!

My husband and I stayed for nine days at this amazing property. It was very spacious and comfortable for our stay. We had everything we needed to cook and really only had to buy a few things for our meals. The kitchen was so well appointed, we even had coffee for our mornings. The home and yard are just beautiful. It was chilly, so we did not use the pool. We did sit outside and enjoy the pretty waterfall and stunning views during the day. I would definitely stay here again, and would highly recommend for a family or group.

This house was perfect for our long-weekend reunion of 6 friends. Lots of places to hang out, including a fantastic rooftop deck that was wonderful for stargazing. The kitchen is well appointed and all beds were comfy. The host and the concierge staff were very accommodating.
4.0 / 10.0
The house was 45 minutes from the airport and 35 minutes from Fashion Square Mall, farther away from everything we wanted and a bit remote. Still, we could have made it work if other things had gone well. Our primary reason for booking a private home with a private pool was to use the pool, including at night. However, the pool lights were broken. So, while it was too hot during the day to use the pool, we also couldn’t enjoy it at night. When I mentioned to the concierge that it was disappointing that we couldn’t use the pool at night, she said “I hear you,” which wasn’t satisfying. Also, we were told by Liah not to use the waterfall for more than an hour because it would break the pool. One of the pool umbrellas was broken or had been stuck in a position that the Liah didn’t even try to fix. Next, the rooftop deck was a selling point for us, but it was too hot to use during the day (no umbrella) and has no lights at night.
A owner should give us a partial refund.
The ice maker in the fridge was broken and we needed to use ice cubes. Although we were told to remove perishables at checkout, there were lots of old condiments in the fridge when we arrived which were offered to us for our use. We declined. Liah didn’t know how to use the TVs, didn’t know how to lock the doors, and couldn’t tell us anything about the area that wasn’t written in the guest binder. When we told her that we’d really like to know how to actually lock the doors, she said there was no crime in the area. This response wasn’t comforting. We figured it out. Be careful with the slider because, although it is difficult to lock from inside, it locked easily when we went to the patio for coffee one morning and locked us out of the house (there’s a keypad on the side garage door they we used to get in). There’s more but space doesn’t permit. Overall, this house was greatly overpriced for what we were able to use, and our stay was disappointing.

Spectacular Experience
From start to finish our stay was perfection. The property and the home are beautiful, well cared for, and comfortable. The environment is inviting and relaxing--from rooftop star viewing to days playing poolside. The bedrooms are comfortable, the kitchen is beautifully stocked, and there is plenty of entertainment on property. The concierge, Maureen, was available and helpful--absolutely wonderful. We were so happy that we booked our next stay at the property while we were still there! Exceptional!

Stayed June 2022
We had a great time! We enjoyed the waterfall and pool. The great room upstairs by bedrooms 2&3 was great! Very quiet, my kids enjoyed all the games and DVDs provided. Rooftop was amazing. One thing we didn’t notice until our last day was the grocery discount cards on the welcome. table. Lol that would of been nice to have. Kitchen was fully stocked, bedrooms we’re comfortable! This was our 2nd trip to Arizona and we will definitely be back. This house was beautiful! Can’t wait to come back!
