About this house rental
I love the spaciousness of the floor plan, it is elegant while being comfortable and the best part is that it is located across from a huge desert draw with the McDowell Mountains as a backdrop. There are neighbors but is so quiet! Minutes to town. My husband and I are both artists, so the home has an abundance of art of our own and others! Have coffee on the patio and watch the sunrise over the hills and through the palm tree. Master bdrm and great room open to this artsy covered patio.
The home has space available for private interactions or great for a get together. The unique quality that we love about this home is the quiet and private location across from the large desert space with views of the McDowell Mountains. The upper portion of the lot is like our own private arboretum, with walking trails and an area for private reflection or an area to catch some rays, relaxing in the zero gravity chairs provided. We like having an afternoon cool one here and watch the sun on the mountains. We also like the floor plan and decor, classy and comfortable, with most everything one could need. We want it to feel like a guest is visiting their good friend who trusts them with their life and home. There is a spot off the patio with a 30' fence for pups to do their duty and a walking trail across the street.
All parts except a few cabinets in the garage and some of our food items are stored in a buffet and cabinet in the hallway. These will be marked for owner's use.
Unless I happen to be visiting the area. I do have a co-host/friend available that lives a few minutes away, if needed.
The neighborhood is made up of of a variety of SW architecture on the edge of Fountain Hills, just a few minutes from grocery stores, restaurants, golf courses and the lake and fountain. The topography is so interesting and diverse and in our case, our home is so private with just one neighbor visible on the west side.
Uber or Lyft or PJ's Sedan service.
If one is traveling with pets or small children, this home does not have a fenced yard. There is a walking trail for pets across the street and their is about a 100 sq ft enclosed with a 2' fence of the patio. It is advised that pets be supervised as there is wildlife in the area like coyotes, javelina, and bobcats. There is also a fantastic dog park off Saguaro, one for small dogs and one for large. I have found these to be great for our pups and us too. We like to socialize with other dog lovers!
Smoking outside please. Large parties are not allowed. Neighborhood is quiet. If you want to have large and noisy parties, best choose a different place. Please treat my home as your own and leave it tidy when departing. Keep garage door closed during the day to prevent critters from escaping the heat. If you are conscious of energy use and expense, that is appreciated. Please clean granite counters with soap and water or natural stone cleaner, sharp knives and pots and pans by hand, and tile floors with Odorban or other tile-friendly cleaner, which I provide. Let me know if something is not working or something is dirty when you check in. My house cleaner is excellent but occasionally everyone has a bad day. We aim to provide you a very clean home!

The home had everything we wanted. Location afforded access to shopping and trails. The kitchen was stocked with enough items to easily supplement our grocery shopping. We would definitely stay here again. Views of the mountains were a plus for our family. Accommodating pets also a plus. Communication with the owner was excellent!

Vicky's beautiful home in Fountain Hills was perfect for our trip to the Scottsdale area. We really appreciated the hospitality - Vicky provided a bottle of wine and snacks on the kitchen counter. We will definitely stay again on our next visit to the area.

Nature Lovers Delight
We stayed at this home for just under two months while waiting to move into our permanent residence. Fountain Hills is a dark sky community, so no street lights. The combination of the dark skies (think starry nights) and its location across the street from a nature preserve make it truly magical. The bird life was truly a surprise. Close your eyes and you will be transported to some far off place. In the evenings we were visited by coyote and javelina - always a thrill.
Vicky was a wonderfully attentive host. If there was a concern or question she responded immediately.

Great house. Great stay!!
We rented this home in Fountain Hills for a month and it was a fantastic stay. The homeowner communicated everything necessary prior to check in. A digital entry door was pre-set by the owner with the last four digits of our cell phone which was really handy. No fumbling with keys or lock boxes. The house was clean, had everything for a great stay. And Fountain Hills is wonderful. We would love to stay again.

Wonderful experience
We had a wonderful stay. We were there 4 weeks and felt at home immediately. The home was well stocked and we enjoyed breakfast on the patio every morning. The wildlife was incredible. There was ample room, it was nicely furnished and the hostess, Vicky, was fabulous. She went out of her way to ensure we were comfortable. We highly recommend this home. Fountain Hills is a wonderful location to visit.

Loved the house, neighborhood, mountains, blue skies, and warm weather!
The house and patio were great! It was wonderful to sit on the patio with a cup of coffee in the morning and see the mountains ...the neighborhood was great for taking walks up hills and view the beautiful houses in the neighborhood. We had meals using the grill on the patio which was delicious! The house was very comfortable!

Great house and location
This house was perfect for our small group. We were in town to ride our bikes for 4 days and it was exactly what we needed. House was clean and modern and in the perfect location. Vicky, the owner, was helpful and quick to respond to any questions. Watching the sunset over the mountains from the patio was very nice. We will stay here again next year.

Great comfy home.
All the comforts of home in this classic Arizona house. It was very clean and tidy with comfortable furniture and Southwest decor. Very comfy beds. The view from the patio is beautiful with a natural desert and mountains just across the street. its a short drive to the fountain and an easy 1.25 mile walk around the lake. Nice restaurants and coffee shops as well as excellent grocery stores.

Property is a wonderful place to stay.
The peace and quiet of the desert and a well equipped home makes for a wonderful vacation. We saw wildlife while walking on a desert trail such as pheasant, road runners, quail and havolinas. Actually one afternoon while sitting on the patio, a Havolina walked by, about 10 feet away. Another thing we like is to be able to spread out wherever we go on vacation, home is roomy and updated. Owner (Vicki) was responsive to all our questions and needs
