Nice, quiet, secluded home in beautiful surroundings. House was spacious and well appointed. Comfortable beds. Kitchen has everything you would need. Views of the mountains spectacular. Road to the house was a bit rough so it was good we had a 4x4. Overall a great stay.

We stayed in Anna’s home over the Xmas Holiday. Anna was super responsive and very informative, proving clear directions for the house and check-in. (Follow her directions, not Waze). We wanted a fairly remote location with desert views and space and this house was perfect! The views of the desert and mountains are gorgeous (my dream view) & the house was clean and tidy. Anna has managed to create the perfect balance of a comfortable home with all the conveniences and supplies you would need with not feeling like you are a stranger in someone else’s home. The master bed was super comfy, the rooftop terrace had literal 360 degree views, and the hot tub was clean, working, and a fantastic amenity after hiking/biking. The location is about 20-30 min to groceries/gas/food. I would stay in this home again and again.
Thank you Anna for such a perfect stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 20 night stay at this beautiful property, in the northeast area of Scottsdale! Anna was a wonderful, attentive host and provided lots of details and information to help us make the most of our stay.
The spacious house has lovely furnishings and all the amenities needed for a very comfortable visit. The wide open mountain & desert views from the patio are spectacular and the 360 degree views from the rooftop patio are equally spectacular… especially at sunset! It was a unique experience to occasionally hear coyote and wolf sounds from the nearby wildlife rehab center (the sounds always subsided within a few minutes). On two occasions we observed a coyote quietly pass through the back of the property. Hummingbirds and woodpeckers repeatedly visited the feeder beside the patio. We missed seeing the bobcat that Anna mentioned visits on occasion.
The location is very private, quiet, a short drive down an unpaved road and surrounded by countryside homes and horse farms.
We are hikers and this house is situated very close to some of our favourite trails: Granite Mountain, Browns Ranch, Tom's Thumb, Pinnacle Peak are all within about a 10 minute drive. It was always a treat to return to the house after each day's hike and relax in the large comfortable hot tub with the incredible views. Other hiking areas we enjoy within a 30-45 minute drive include Spur Cross Ranch, Cave Creek Regional Park, Lake Pleasant Regional Park, Adero trailhead in Fountain Hills and Butcher Jones at Saguaro Lake. You can access the Pemberton Trail in McDowell Mountain Regional Park via bike or walking from the house. Anne provides bikes that can be used. It is an hour drive to enjoy the Superstition Mountain hiking options along the famous Apache Trail (don't miss the novel dining experience at Tortilla Flats saloon). Another plus is that most of these trails have free access or some have a nominal fee of about $5.
There is an incredible array of good restaurant and grocery store choices all within a 20 minute drive ... no freeway driving required to reach these establishments which we appreciated to help maintain our relaxed mood.
Thank you Anna for sharing your special place with us and we look forward to a return visit!

Great trip, great house! What really set it apart was the property manager though, top notch, anything we needed Anna was there to answer our call. Thx!

5.0 / 5.0
Wonderful property. All the amenities that you could possibly need for a relaxed stay. My only suggestion would be to give guests a heads-up on grocery store locations. They are located a significant distance from the home, but could easily be accessed on the way. Highly recommended!

Anna was wonderful to work with! Thank you for providing an amazing serene property for a spring break desert getaway! Gorgeous grounds including rooftop ramada views) were peaceful as a retreat. Indoor comfort with southwest style was delightful for our family trip. We’d love to go back!

Spent a wonderful month at this property. If peace and tranquility and nearby horses are your thing, Anna’s place will suit. Desert preserve a 10 minute walk and Anna has bikes so you can explore. Hot tub a plus after mountain biking in the desert or star gazing at night. Wifi good. Photos show level of appointment accurately. This was a special place with hard to replicate views of Four Peaks.

My husband and I went with another couple to explore around Scottsdale area and play golf. Anna was fantastic and very accommodating since we got there a day early to avoid getting snowed in. We loved how quiet and peaceful the property was and the views. Layout of the house was perfect for us as well. Wished it had been warmer to enjoy the courtyard and patio more in the evenings. We will definitely be back and loved staying there.
5.0 / 5.0
The location is off the beaten path and slightly away from the city, which is our preference. We were there 4 nights and thoroughly enjoyed the property. Anna was super about getting in touch with us prior to check in. Loved the open kitchen for lots of cooking and visiting. We would definitely stay again.

House is very clean and comfortable. Outdoor space is very private and relaxing. We really enjoyed soaking in the hot tub at night looking at the stars and listening to the coyotes in the distance. We will definitely return.

Anna is a delightful and attentive host! My husband and teenage son and I stayed at her beautiful home with my mother and brother, and there was plenty of room for us all. We especially enjoyed the amazing views and listening to the coyotes howl at the full moon! You can sit in the enormous hot tub and count the jack rabbits in the back yard. Our day trip to Sedona was a hi,t and cooking family meals in the large kitchen was a joy. Anna was easily reachable and made sure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend her lovely home!

From day one working with Anna was a breeze. We received prompt responses and details. The house was as advertised and we enjoyed both the indoor and outdoor amenities. We will be back.

Anna was great to interact with-the house has beautiful views during the day and complete darkness at night. Close to golf--well maintained home.

We enjoyed our stay so much. We celebrated Thanksgiving and enjoyed a wedding as well. It was so nice to have the space and room to roam for our family of 5 with a very active little 3 year old boy!

From the time we arrived we were impressed with this gorgeous property. We took our family pictures here and we got some incredible shots. The views on this property were breathtaking.
Traveling with a six month old we were happy to find a high chair for us to use. My wife and I were pleased with the home as well as the amenities that were there for us to use including mountain bikes!
The property owner Ann was great during our stay, she was quick to respond to our questions even before we arrived she had some great advice for our family trip.
We will stay here again for sure!

2.0 / 5.0
The views were beautiful and the weather gorgeous however the location is quite far from everything. The furnishings look a little tired but adequate. I would advise anyone staying here to arrive before dark as it is very difficult to find after dark. Anna's directions were good it was just very dark.

No problem at all..

Great house with all of the amenities, close enough to town, yet far enough away to have Mountain View’s and lots of nature to enjoy.
2.5 / 5.0
This was a very clean 4 bedroom with a wonderful wild peaceful environment. We loved having coffee on the patio in the morning and awaiting coyote howl at 7.00. It was also close to the golf course we played each day. Also, Anna is way cool!
2.5 / 5.0
3 of us wanted to get away on a golf trip. This property is very outstanding and nice, plenty of room to stretch out away from people. Outside is so quiet you can hear the coyotes at a distance no cars or city noise. The views are outstanding. We stayed 3 nights and 4 days and had golf scheduled for 4 days. After seeing the property in person I wished we had more time to enjoy it. The owner Anna was very quick to respond. The instructions are very clear and detailed on how the operate everything, you have to be a dummy if you can't follow the instructions. I hope to come back next year.
2.5 / 5.0
We were presently surprised by the space and amenities that the listing photos couldn’t capture. This home had great spaces for relaxing and gathering. The home is well stocked and the host was readily available to address any questions. This home is tucked away for great privacy but still within a short drive to dining and recreation. I would absolutely recommend this property and would bring my family back in the future.
