Amazing Vacation

My entire family so enjoyed staying in this beautiful home. It was perfect for our family vacation. There were 15 of us ranging from grandkids to grandparents and parents in between. This house is amazing, because it is someone's home. The owners take great care not only of their home but also their guests. Everything about it was perfect for our family - from the layout of the house to the area where the house was located to the amenities. We look forward to visiting again!

Fabulous Home

Guest: War Eagle (Atlanta, Ga)
Date of Stay: 01/05/11 Review Submitted: 01/15/11

Fabulous home with great amenities. Owner was very helpful, greeting us at the start of the week and available for any assistance. Kitchen was user friendly with basic necessities available for use. We used condiments and purchased replacements. Furnishings modern and up-to-date with very comfortable bedding. Home is not in the commercial or crowded residential area with a true Arizona desert atmosphere. Great walking area. Local restaurants and grocery stores close by with travel to Scottsdale less than 40 minutes away. Easy access to major golf courses - TPC, Troon North, and Boulders. A group of Auburn Tiger fans celebrating the victorious BCS week. War Eagle

Auburn BCS Week - January 10, 2011

Guest: War Eagle (Atlanta, Ga)
Date of Stay: 01/05/11 Review Submitted: 01/15/11

The house was fabulous and met all of our expectations. The furnishings were great, up-to-date and the bedding was very comfortable. The owner greeted us, gave us a tour of the home, and was available at anytime we needed him. The house was in a perfect location in North Scottsdale. A true Arizona experience in the desert, isolated and away from the commercial areas. Travel to Scottsdale was convenient, being in the mainstream in less than 40 minutes. Easy access to all major golf courses - Boulders, TPC, Troon North, and We-ko-pa. Fabulous local restaurants close by. A group of Auburn college friends had a great week in the house celebrating the Auburn Tigers national championship. War Eagle.

Amazing

Guest: Peter (Minneapolis)
Date of Stay: 11/20/10 Review Submitted: 05/26/11

We stayed in the house during Thanksgiving week of 2010. The house is absolutely amazing - the pictures do not do it justice. We had three generations in the house (8 adults and 5 kids ranging in age from 6 months to 6 years) and had room to spare. Beautiful setting on Black Mountain, close to trails for hiking, steps from the great restaurants in Cave Creek. We will be back for sure.

This home is a work of art!! Better than photos show!

Guest: Liz & Leo (Ladera Ranch, California)
Date of Stay: 10/02/10 Review Submitted: 10/27/10

We stayed here for a family gather with folks coming from all parts of the country for our celebration! Everyone fell in love with the house and Barney, the owner could not have been nicer to us if we were family. The decor is perfect. The kitchen had everything you would need! I won't bring so much next time! Shopping and restaurants are close by. We were close to McDonald Ranch where we went horse back riding. The home was immaculate, which is very important to me! The sunrise over the mountains each morning is breath taking. We have been to Sonoma and Napa many times and been in some nice wine rooms. The wine room in this home would fit right in. The steam room was great to relax in. I didn't find the griddle on the stove until close to the end of our stay which saved me a lot of time when I made pancakes for our grandsons. We can't wait to go back for our 33rd anniversary, grandson's 3rd birthday and our newest grandson who was born in the Scotsdale hospital the day before we departed the house, will turn 1 next year!! Thank you Barney for allowing us to stay in your vacation home! We really felt at home!

Fantastic vacation

The place is exactly how the description and pictures depict it. The rental company as well as the home owners are great, and extremely helpful with various recommendations. All rooms are of a good size (especially that master bedroom) and even with our large group, we never felt crowded in any way. I would highly recommend this rental.

Girl's trip 2010

Guest: none (phoenix, arizona)
Date of Stay: 09/09/10 Review Submitted: 09/14/10

We were 11 women (between ages of 42-48) on an annual girl's trip and we had a fabulous time!!! there was plenty of room and very comfortable accomodations. The bathrooms are huge! lot's of counter space and lots of mirrors...perfect for women. We spent most our time during the day by the pool...shade comes around by about 3pm....just in time for happy hour!!. One day we spent at the Boulders resort Golden Door Spa which is less than a mile away. We also had a private chef come one night and make a fabulous dinner with 4 courses and wine pairing (Carrie Jeffries from Bistro-a-go-go)...she was amazing!! we started with our first course, appetizers and wine in the wine room....great ambiance! I highly recommend this property!!

As Advertised

Date of Stay: 05/12/10 Review Submitted: 05/19/10

I, along with 7 golfing friends, just returned from a stay at this property. It was exactly as advertised. All the amenities that one could want or imagine. Beautiful home and well maintained. It was clean and only 1 mile from The Boulders Golf Resort. Just a few minutes from Scottsdale. The owner was extremely kind and answered all our questions. If we choose Scottsdale for golf next year, this would be a definite for our accomodations. Highly recommended.

We had a great time in Scottsdale, good golf, good weather was only complimented by a fantastic place. Barney was most helpful in getting us settled. We will definitely consider this place when we do Scottsdale in the future and STRONGLY recommended to any of our friends/contacts contemplating a vacation in Scottsdale to rent this location. Pictures don't do justice to how good this place really is.
