  The pictures do not do this home justice. All the amenities we could need were provided. The surround sound system works works beautifully and made for a good time. We took a morning walk and even while being within this upscale community you feel as if you're close to nature and the views were amazing. The home feels quiet and secluded even though it's not far away from civilization at all and the bedrooms each provide excellent privacy. The master bath was amazing with the double headed walk-in shower and the jetted tub were luxurious, not to mention that the closet was big enough to be a bedroom. The pool was at a perfect temperature all times of the day. The owner was very quick to reply to my emails and more than fair with the rental rate. My friends and I look forward to possibly renting the home again in the future..

  This home was exactly as pictured and so relaxing. Once we figured out to keep the spa warmer than the pool and a few other minor things the stay was fantastic. We emailed the owner Lisa a few times and questioned were answered very quickly. I think the barbeque must not be on the cleaning groups list, but we took it apart, cleaned it, and grilled twice. That worked out great and now the barbeque is clean. Everything else was very nice. We did eat at a fantastic restaurant-The White Chocolate Grill by the intersection of the 101 and Scottsdale Blvd.

  We had a fabulous family vacation at this home in March, this home has everything you need, large bedrooms each with ensuite bath, large familyroom and kitchen. Everything you could possibly need is there, property was clean and well maintained. Lisa is awesome to deal with, this is our 2nd trip at this home and would highly recommed it. The pool was beautiful and loved the hot tub for the cool evenings. We all golf so the location to the courses we played was wonderful, longest drive was 30 minutes, beautiful golf courses. Check this home out, you won't be disappointed. Thanks Lisa for another wonderful vacation.

  We had the most wonderful family Christmas in this home. It suited our needs perfectly. Watching the sunset directly over Camelback every evening was a special treat. I am hoping we can repeat this trip sometime!

  The house was exactly as advertised. Very well decorated, quiet location, wonderful amenities. We were meet by member of the owner's family and guided to the house. We found everything in good working order. If we visit Scottsdale again I'm sure we would rebook.

  We used this home for a girls trip and it was amazing. This is no ordinary home. The decor is pure luxury and that matches the setting. Amazing views, beautiful outdoor area. We never wanted to leave. Great hiking trails and mountain vistas. The owner and her daughter were so helpful and accommodating. The property was just as described only better and immaculately clean. Thank you for letting us stay in your home!

  We just stayed at this property for 3 nights this weekend and loved it. The house was perfect for our group, and it was a lovely home, with great amenities. It was very clean, and had everything we needed. The pool was fabulous and the kids in our group spent most of their time swimming! We would recommend this property to anyone who was interested, and would return in the future.

  We are 2 couples who just stayed in this huge house on vacation. We loved it. It has everything anybody needs and more. We enjoyed the house, the pool and the spa, warm enough at this time of the year to avoid having to heat it (end of Sept.-beginning of Oct, weather between 93-107F).). Everything is as showed on the pictures. Lisa's daughter kindly introduced us to the house and to anything we needed to know, including the closest groceries and restaurants. We recommend this place for families, couples and friends because it is large enough and the bedrooms respect each one's intimacy. The kitchen/family room is large, as well as the patio. One recommendation to the owners: to have more pool chairs on the patio in case the group is large. There are only 2 plus the chairs around the table, which are OK but not relaxing like the 2 others. We managed anyway, it is just a recommendation, we're not criticizing.

  Our vacation was arranged at very short notice, literally days before we were due to arrive at the property. The owner was most accommodating and went out of her way to ensure the reservation went smoothly. This was to be a consistent theme throughout our stay. By the time we left our home in the UK every detail was in place. Although there were just the two of us we relished the space and luxury that this property provided. It suited us perfectly but would easily meet the needs of a family or group of friends looking for peace, tranquillity and luxury. We were met, as arranged, by the owner's daughter and given a tour of the property. It was way beyond our expectations, from carpets that were almost ankle-deep, (we actually left foot-prints in them), to the most modern laundry room, which even included a pet shower! The master suite is breath-taking, complemented by a fabulous bathroom and dressing room. The fittings throughout the home are top class, for example, in this bathroom the mirrors even have power sockets which are mirrored too! Every little detail was catered for, from the cool-box to the state of the art coffee maker (we’re searching UK sites for the equivalent!), every amenity is provided. We loved the illuminated built-in wine rack. Each room was beautifully furnished, decorated AND so comfortable as well as being user-friendly. The sitting room oozed opulence and whether we sat reading here, or watching the 60inch TV in the living room, it was several notches up on ‘home from home’. The kitchen is state of the art with everything to hand, a cook’s delight. The house throughout was exceptionally clean and a real pleasure to stay in. The Scottsdale heat was made more acceptable by the good-sized pool and large shaded patio. Here we watched eagles soaring above us, and on one occasion 19 quail were sitting on the fence when we emerged for an early morning coffee. Cactus wrens and woodpeckers also made regular appearances and one morning a roadrunner dropped by. An unforgettable memory is of the two of us relaxing in the hot tub under a clear night sky (in an air temperature of 90°F), drinking champagne and watching a whole series of shooting stars flash across the sky whilst listening to coyotes yipping and howling up on the mountains. The home is situated in a tranquil, secluded cul-de-sac undisturbed by passing traffic. Stunning mountain views, spectacular sunsets and a friendly owner are the icing on the cake. We can’t wait to return.

  We stayed here for a week during our summer holiday and we delighted with the home. We have stayed in other homes in Scottsdale whilst on holiday and can honestly say this was the best! The home was just as it appears in the photographs, fully decorated to a high standard, with everything needed for stay in Scottsdale. The outdoor space provided stunning views down to Scottsdale and gave a welcoming mountain breeze, which was a very pleasant change. We enjoyed the use of the bbq, and swimming pool although a few more sun loungers would have been useful. The location was ideal for all holiday needs; restaurants, shopping and sightseeing. The owner, Lisa, was delightful and was in regular contact, with nothing to much of a bother. Would recommend staying here to anyone.

  The amazing experience we had at this home started when we pulled up to the guarded, gated private community. Drove past the tennis courts and pulled into the three car garage. For a little bit more than we would have paid for a 500 square foot hotel room we were able to enjoy a 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath home with a private pool and hot tub. Do you want to walk and enjoy the community-Yes! do you want to have a place for the kids to play and swim?-Yes A place to enjoy a reunion or get together-Yes! maybe it is just a place to get away from it all, I mean isn't that why your on vacation? in our brief stay we: Sat in the hotub at night and watched the stars and the view of the city, ate healthy meals (Cooked ourselves in the fabulous kitchen) on the patio by the pool. Played cards in the nook overlooking the pool. The home was very well designed and the master bedroom alone is bigger than most hotel lobby's! Shopping, restaurants golf etc is 5-20 minutes away depending on where you are going. I will stay again and highly recommend it for anyone who is going to be in Scottsdale for a weekend or several months! Danny

  Looking for a vacation property for my family this past winter I stumbled onto the VRBO website. Being the first time that I had tried VRBO I was a bit sceptical (as with all things internet related). Thankfully I consider myself extremely fortunate that I stumbled onto Lisa's property. Everything you see on this page is true. The house is gorgeous. There is not anything that you will find regarding this home that isn't top notch. From the unbelievable feel of the backyard, to the football field sized master bedroom, you will feel like a king/queen in a castle. We all know, no matter how nice something is, service and quality of interaction with the owner will make or break a good experience. This owner and her daughter are second to none in their professionalism and the way they conduct themselves. You will never regret renting this home.
