Come to Cave Creek for an unforgettable vacation at this incredible home! This humble abode is conveniently placed in the perfect location for many outdoor activities, such as the Carefree Desert Gardens just a mile away, where you can take a carefree stroll through the botanical gardens and enjoy the gorgeous desert flora of Arizona. Get a taste of the wild west through Frontier Town, a recreation of old times, and shop through the many stores available for knick-knacks and artifacts!
Head on back to your vacation rental after a fun-filled day out on the town and walk in through the front door to find an incredibly spacious and welcoming living space with a sectional couch big enough for you and your friends to relax on and a large smart TV to stream all your favorite movies/TV shows from. Step into the stunning full kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances for you to cook up a homemade meal for everyone in the evening, followed swiftly by drinks at the dinner table and good company. If you're feeling up to some games, hop on the shuffleboard and challenge a friend to a couple of rounds, or jump into a bathing suit and dip your feet into the lovely pool as you gaze at the breathtaking view. Fire up the gas grill and prepare a delicious burger as the sun sets behind the backdrop of the mountains, then head back inside and snuggle up by the fireplace. Gather everyone around the outdoor fire table when evening falls to enjoy nice cups of cocoa under a breathtaking canopy of starlight.

This home was beautiful, spacious and felt like home. We really loved staying in a private home as opposed to a hotel. The neighborhood was quiet and gorgeous. The home was beautifully furnished and very comfortable. This location is one of our favorites in AZ.

We meet amazing life long friends there for a long weekend in the beautiful Cave Creek area. We have spent much time in the area but have never stayed in a home like this one - plenty of room for 3-4 couples. Great quiet location with a beautiful breathtaking views. Wildlife is abundant. The pool (with the summer heat we spent a lot of time in the pool) and home are stunning and everything we needed for restful evenings after busy days. Would rebook in a second!! The home is close to shopping and restaurants and a short drive to Scottsdale, with great golf and hiking nearby. Easy trip and distance to Phoenix airport. We even took in a day trip to Sedona. You will not be disappointed in this gem of a home.

The property and home was very nice. The views from the backyard/pool area are stunning and mostly private. The one item which was not clear to us about the property description is the detached 4th bed room/3rd bathroom. You need to exit the main house to access this separate suite which included the 4th bedroom, 3rd bathroom - there's no interior access. That's not ideal for a family and went unused. The house was very clean, spacious, had all the necessary towels, kitchen supplies, etc for a week's stay. The pool was great! Wifi was great for working remotely. We enjoyed the neighborhood and could walk to nearby stores. We'd consider a return in the future.

The house is exactly as advertised. The furniture is comfortable, the pool is amazing, and the location is perfect. The views are spectacular and restaurants and shopping are just down the road. 10/10.

The pool area was exactly what we wanted. It is quiet and mostly secluded. The hot tub controls were not accessable, but we okay with that. The house was large (three bedroom) and a huge living room. Kitchen was supplied with everything we needed. We can't wait to go back! This house exceeded my expectations!
Getting in took a phone call to mgmnt because there is an iron gate out front which was locked. I didn't know that you could walk from the driveway to the front door to bypass the gate. Mgmnt picked up the phone at 10:15 pm. I was very surprised and thankful. Very good service!

Beautiful home and the location was spectacular. So close to bars and restaurants. When booking it says it’s a 2 king/2 queen and 2 1/2 bathroom home. Half was locked off to us so not accurate. Would book again though because it was beautiful and exactly where we wanted to stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our week in the dessert, whether staying in or returning to East Horizon Sanctuary after our day’s travels. It was a perfect base from which to head North to the Grand Canyon, South to Tucson and everywhere in between.
The home was impressive and in a quiet area of Cave Creek and convenient to all that we required, with numerous options for groceries and restaurants as near as a one minute drive.
The fit and finish of the home and soft goods was top notch, with everything necessary to make for a comfortable stay. We were glad to have brought our own music set up (Alexa Echo) as we prefer some tunes while enjoying the views. That was the only item missing from our perspective.
This is our third decade of home and villa rentals around the globe, which is our personal preference over a resort, and we both agreed that it was one of the best homes that we have enjoyed.
It is obvious that the owner’s have set this up with a consideration for their guests, and it being our first time working with VACASA, and found the process very simple with timely and ample communication, including the “heads up” when a contractor was coming to the home.
Our only regret was that we did not opt to heat the pool, thinking that the daytime temps would carry forward so if we return in the winter or spring that will be a must.
How apropos is the name because we would definitely make this our home away from home and sanctuary for our next visit to the dessert!

Expensive, but worth it.

Wonderful location. Beautiful home and responsive property manager.

great place but no sun at all in back yard where pool/ hot tub is. By the time the sun. gets around to that side of the property it is time for it to set for the period we were there Dec 26-Jan 2. So maybe later in the year the sun will be on the back deck the way the pictures of the place show on the website, but not right after Christmas

Loved the space. Perfect for a long weekend. A little far from GCU but nice area to explore.

Overall, our stay at the mountain view home was absolutely delightful. The house itself was lovely, offering three bedrooms and two baths in the main building.
One of the standout features for us was the additional fourth bedroom and third bathroom located in the Casita. This separate living space was a pleasant surprise.
The pool and hot tub were definite highlights of our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed relaxing and taking in the stunning views while soaking up the sun!
Additionally, the landscaping around the property was well-maintained and enhanced the overall aesthetic appeal.
We genuinely had a wonderful time during our stay, and we are already looking forward to returning in the future.

Had a great time there at Arizona Bikeweek. Visited Sedona with the wife and then a good friend and cousin arrived to finish the trip riding Motorcycles throughout Arizona. Great time with a great home and location.

This house was absolutely the most stunningly beautiful and the most comfortable home I have ever had the pleasure to stay in. Heated pool so relaxing although we had no luck with the weather. Can’t wait to come back, it was perfect in every way.

We were delighted with the home, its accommodation, location, retreat feel (a quiet and private place with access to local amenities), and beautiful surroundings. Everything exceeded our expectations. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Indeed a place I'd be inclined to return to.
