Why the Owner Chose Terravita
We fell in love with the the natural desert beauty of this area, with views of The Boulders, Black Mountain and the mountains of the Tonto National Forest as a backdrop. The higher elevation (2,500 feet) keeps this area cooler then Phoenix making it pleasant here year round. We also enjoy having the charming towns of Carefree and Cave Creek just minutes away!
The Unique Benefits at this House
We immediately liked the community of Terravita with it's resort style amenities, walking paths, golf course and beautifully landscaped community spaces. The location of our home is such that we are able to walk to the Club House and swimming pool. Plus we are also walking distance to the Terravita Market place and el Pedregal shopping center with a grocery store, restaurants, and many unique shops. El Pedregal hosts a series of outdoor concerts and wine tasting events in the winter.

We have stayed at this Terravita location several times over the past few years and as recently as this past January. We love the comfortableBfeel of the location, well decorated and supplied. Having the golf cart available one can use it or take a short walk to grocery/coffee and other shops nearby. The cart is also a great way to get to the clubhouse/pool area. Short drives take us to Cave Creek, The boulders and nearby Scottsdale locations. Very responsive owners. Always have a fun, delicious time here.
Recommended for:Adventure seekers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, tourists without a car, age 55+, girls getaway.

This is one of the best vacation rentals I have ever stayed in. It is furnished beautifully and in a great location. I can walk to breakfast, coffee, groceries and many other amenities, plus the pool and golf course. If you have not stayed here you are missing out on one of the nicest places in the Boulders. I will stay there again as much as time permits.
