About the host

Hosted by John Bigelow

Host profile image
We built this estate in 2006 with the vision of creating a place where family and friends could gather, relax, and enjoy the best of the Arizona lifestyle. It has since become a truly special retreat for our family, and we are pleased to share it with our guests.

Set on 4.5 private, gated acres, the property offers approximately 8,400 square feet of living space, combining comfort, privacy, and resort-style amenities. It is ideal for large families, group getaways, golf trips, reunions, and special celebrations, with plenty of room to come together while still enjoying personal space.

The estate is designed for entertainment without ever needing to leave. Guests can enjoy the resort-style pool, private 9-hole miniature golf course, sport court, and stunning desert surroundings, then unwind with a movie in the private theater or relax under the Arizona night sky.

More than just a place to stay, this is a private resort experience created for connection, relaxation, and lasting memories. Whether you’re here for golf, a family vacation, a reunion, or simply to enjoy the Arizona sunshine, we hope you enjoy it as much as we have over the years.
