PERFECTLY LOCATED SCOTTSDALE HOUSE W/ PRIVATE POOL, FENCED YARD AND 2 CAR GARAGE
Minutes to Talking Stick Fields, Giants Stadium, Westworld, Golf, Shopping & Dining! 30 day minimum stay.
Enjoy the best of Scottsdale, without the crowds! This party-free, single level home is a separate house, not a condo or townhouse. The spacious split floor plan maximizes privacy for two couples or four friends. A comfortable leather sleeper sofa in the living room is the perfect place you enjoy a quiet evening at home with a view of your own private pool. A modern entertainment center and bar with a 60" smart TV give you plenty of entertainment options. A desk and chair are also nearby if you need to take care of some business during your stay.
In the light filled kitchen you will find granite counters and stainless appliances and everything you need to enjoy your stay, including an ice maker, a warming drawer, a microwave, washer and dryer, Keurig and drip coffee makers, toaster, blender and plenty of dishes. Wish so many amazing restaurants and happy hours nearby, you might only use the kitchen for your leftovers!
In each of the two large bedrooms you will find plush mattresses with high end linens to ensure a great nights sleep after a day of playing in the sun. In the master suite, a King size bed, private ensuite and his and hers closets welcome you to your own retreat. Step outside the French doors to your covered poolside patio. In the guest bedroom, you will find a Queen size bed, desk and comfortable leather arm chair and a French door access to the covered poolside patio. A 3 piece washroom with bathtub are conveniently located just outside your door, down a private hall.
The back yard features a sparkling new pebble tec pool and a fully fenced yard. The covered patio with gas grill has plenty of poolside seating including a dining table and loungers by the pool. There are plenty of pool towels and noodles if you fancy a dip and some tan time. You also have a 2 car attached garage for your convenience.
This well appointed Scottsdale home is located in a quiet residential neighborhood within 10 minutes of West World, Spring Training baseball fields, Mayo Clinic, Keirland, Scottsdale Quarter and only 15 minutes from Old Town Scottsdale. Within 2 miles you will find hundreds of restaurants like Pei Wei, Twin Peaks, several great local breweries, Best Buy, Sam's Club, TPC golf, spas and the deliciously fun Senora Village Luxury Cinemas.
Double pane glass French doors and tinted windows fill this home with lots of light and quiet inside. A new roof, insulation and also add to the feeling of a tranquil oasis. A new HVAC unit with electrostatic air filter and air scrubber with UV light and ozone ensure fresh clean air inside too!
If you have looked at a map and noticed this home is close to the freeway you are probably wondering if it is noisy. While searching for your perfect, quiet serene Scottsdale vacation home, the map doesn't always tell the whole story. When this portion of the Loop 101 was built, it was part of a pilot program, which installed a 1 inch think rubber/asphalt layer over the concrete to help mitigate noise. Next they installed a thick textured acoustic wall which absorbs, blocks and bounces the sound over Villa Lamar. That means being within 100 feet of the wall is actually one of the quietest places to be! Walk the neighborhood and you will be surprised to see the noise a few blocks away is louder than it is by the pool at Villa Lamar! With the double pane French doors, you will be surprised at how quiet the home actually is inside, and you won't have to raise your voice to talk in the back yard either. Guests who return every year, say that freeway walls makes Villa Lamar one of the best kept secret deals in Scottsdale!
We have all seen those TV ads where happy vacationing families lounge around their own private pool without a care in the world. If the idea of walking a mile from the parking lot to a cramped hotel room where the neighbors party all night, the maids wake you up at 7am, the pool is full of screaming kids and restaurant meals are an expensive requirement, then you have probably discovered that renting a condo or townhouse is not much different than staying in a hotel. If you want to avoid all of the resort drama and have the kind of vacation those juicy TV ads promise, then choosing a house for your next trip is probably the answer.

The host was extremely accommodating and prompt when responding to our questions. The house was just what we were looking for, very clean and well furnished with everything we needed! The pool area is beautiful, with several chairs and chaise loungers! The location of the house is near numerous restaurants, stores, gas stations, and golf courses. We would definitely recommend this property for anyone staying in the Scottsdale area!

We enjoyed our time here. The property is in a quiet neighborhood that is very walkable. We had everything we needed for our stay. The kitchen was well stocked and the bathrooms had plenty of towels/washcloths. Our dog loved the fenced in backyard. Would definitely stay here again.
Heidi is great to work with and Is always available to answer questions.
The property location is ideal for getting around Phoenix and enjoying the sunshine.
With two bedrooms and two baths on opposite sides of the house there is great privacy for couples or families, Great for a get-a-way in Arizona’s beautiful winter sunshine !

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
host and location were excellent. there were cleanliness issues, too many decorative pillows, not enough waste cans, and master bath needs another towel rack by sink. The barbeque pit was not clean. there should be a bin for recycling items in the kitchen. the pots and pans were not clean, and the cooktop dials unreadable.

Hello Peggy and Rod,
I appreciate your feedback and I'm so sorry you were not happy with some of the things at the house. I wish you had told me so i could have fixed things while you were there! I wish you both and your beautiful dog Brady all the best, wherever your travels take you!
Villa Lamar was as advertised and more. Heidi is very responsive and accommodating. We needed a comfortable house for us and our pets while relocating to Scottsdale and this was perfect. Comfortable, safe and centrally located to dining, shopping and everything we needed. The pool was refreshing in the summer heat and the years perfect for our dogs. Highly recommend a stay at Villa Lamar!

Great place to stay. House is clean, well kept and comfortable. The location is in a quiet neighborhood yet only 5 mins to grocery stores, restaurants and shopping centers. Heidi was quick to reply to messages and is very friendly and kind. No doubt that we will book with Heidi again.

Thank you, Christopher! You and your lovely family are welcome anytime!
We stayed here for five weeks, although we did not spend a lot of time on the property. It met our needs. It was well-equipped with towels, cleaning supplies, dishes, etc.
This is a lovely house in a quiet neighborhood. We stay here whenever we attend a horse show at West world. It is well stocked with cooking supplies, the beds are comfortable and our dog loves the yard. It's close to everything and there is a nice park nearby. The wifi works great. we didn't watch tv so don't know how that works. Already have bookings for future stays!

Thank you so much for continuing to make Villa Lamar your Scottsdale home away from home. We are looking forward to your May visit. We just installed a massage chair so you can untie all those equestrian knots at the end of your long show days!
This was a great house and a great location. The house is well equipped and the owner was very accessible and helpful. The only issue was the highway which is literally backs to the property. The noise was not awful but it is not quiet either. We joked that the ocean was on the other side of the wall and got used to.

Hello Laura, I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. I know the weather was not the best during you stay, but it sounds like you made the most of it! When we lived in the house we used to imagine the sound was the ocean too. You are right, within a few days, it starts to sound like the muffled roar of surf..
Hope to see you again, in warmer weather!

Great place!
The house is located with easy access to Hwy 101 which makes it very easy to navigate. Owner is very responsive! Had a minor problem that could have waited until we left but fixed that night. I took my parents (85 & 87) the floor plan was great with 2 separate bedroom areas. Doors to the pool from both bedrooms and the living area. Very comfortable accommodations. Would return!

Thanks so much Teresa. I am glad you enjoyed your stay. We repainted and installed new lights and a new grill this week. I hope you will come back to see us soon!
My family and I stayed at Heidi’s house for a month during a recent procedure at Mayo clinic. What a great house with a split floor plan, we had my parents staying with us and it was nice that they had their own space with their own bathroom. We also enjoyed the backyard pool and fenced in area for the dog to play. We took many walks to the local park where our son played, and I could sit in the sun and read a book. Heidi was fantastic to work with and provided good communication and quickly answered any and all of our questions. Thank you for a great stay.

Home away from home!
We stayed at Villa Lamar for 2 months during our home remodel. It was perfect for our family of 3 + 2 dogs. Beautiful pool, though we did not use it, we enjoyed spending time outside. The house is well equipped with everything you need and in a nice quiet neighborhood. Garage parking definitely a plus!! It is very nicely decorated and has plenty of extra linens! Heidi was such a pleasure to work with and checked in on us often to make sure all was good. I would highly recommend this home to anyone traveling to Scottsdale!

Thanks so much! You and your family are welcome anytime, though now that your house is perfect, I am sure you won't want to leave it again for a looking time... Happy Holidays in your "new" home!
Stayed there in December 2020. Very pretty pool and wish we could have used it! Kitchen has everything we needed, and the walking in the neighborhood was nice and also safe. Good location for outdoor activities and grocery shopping. Very communicative owner who wanted to be sure things went right for us. This is an older house that has been remodeled in part. It is near the 101, but there is a large wall constructed by ADOT that keeps the noise to a minimum.

Very comfortable home in a great location, close to highways, restaurants and shopping.
My wife and I and our 2 dogs spent 2 weeks in Heidi’s home in North Scottsdale. The home was a older home but was in great shape with very comfortable furniture and beds. We really enjoyed the back yard with the pool and grassy area where the dogs could exercise a bit. Laying by the pool in the AZ sunshine was so relaxing!
The neighborhood was very quiet and safe. We had a small issue with the thermostat initially but Heidi corrected it immediately.
All in all, a very good place to relax and feel “at home away from home”.

Thanks Bob. You guys are welcome to come back anytime!
We have stayed here before and try to book it whenever we are in town for a horse show at Westworld. We travel with our dog, so the door to the yard off the master is a plus. There are plenty of cooking supplies and some olive oil and basic spices. We know everything works and the location is so convenient! Easy to get to Westworld, the freeway, shopping, FedEx, Post Office, you name it it's right there. There were some upgrades since our last visit, a sofa bed in the living room and an additional desk. There's plenty of dishes, drinkware, etc. We only used the pool occasionally but it was very refreshing. will definitely be back!

Thank you for the lovely review. You covered so many great points, that will help potential guests picture what life at Villa Lamar will be like. We are proud to be your Scottsdale home and look forward to seeing again you in March and May!
This is a 2BR 2 BA home with a small yard and pool. My daughter and I came to show at a horse show at West Word and brought our dog. We had stayed here before and it worked out well. It is easy to get to, in a quiet neighborhood and we felt very safe. The front door has a code but keys are provided that will unlock the back doors should the code fail. There are 2 garage remotes available once inside. There is a mailbox key in case you have something delivered (we did). The pool was very clean and we used it several times as the temps were over 100. The AC worked great. The kitchen is well appointed and has spices, oil sugar etc. available. There is a binder inside with lots of information including trash and recycle pickup. Would definitely stay again

We have stayed at this property many times. It is a 2BR 2 BA home with a pool and a yard. There are cooking supplies and all appliances work. It is close to everything but in a quiet neighborhood. The beds are comfortable. Our first choice for Scottsdale trips!
Heidi was absolutely amazing. She was available to answer all questions and gave helpful advice on what to do around town. The perfect setting for a family vacation.
We came to stay for a horse sow at Westworld. The location was perfect, close to the venue and shopping was easy. Our dogs enjoyed the backyard. The kitchen was well stocked, there was coffee for the keurig and coffee beans for the coffee pot (I never looked to see if there was a bean grinder as I brought my own coffee). We couldn't open the front door and declined Heidi's offer to fix it right away as we used the garage and the opener provided. We couldn't get the living room TV to work but both bedroom tvs worked great. We don't watch much tv anyway. The kitchen was pretty well stocked, salt and pepper, some spices, trash bags and dishwasher pods, cookware, a crockpot etc (no fry pan). Two keys were provided which was a plus and they work the back doors too. There was info on trash and recycling pick up so we didn't have to mimic neighbors. Have booked or fall horse show!
Heidi was phenomenal. The home is very comfortable and the pool is a great amenity. Convenient to everything in North Scottsdale.

About the host
Hosted by Heidi Lamar
As the retired owner of Scottsdale's largest freestanding resort-style spa, customer service is my passion. One day, one of our seasonal spa guests said they were having trouble finding an affordable furnished home for their Scottsdale visits. They needed a home, without stairs, that would allow their beloved, well behaved family dog. They didn't want a noisy condo or a shared pool. In short, they wanted a private home at a condo price. I realized, they were describing my own house, and since I wanted to move to a larger home anyway, I decided to move and rent them mine. It was one of the best decisions I ever made. I have made some really great friends, including many guests who return each year!
Why they chose this property
In a word, value and location. Okay, that was two words! We looked at tons of places and, I thought the only way I could afford vaulted ceilings, granite counters, travertine floors, a mountain view, a two car garage and a pool was in a condo, but I had gotten used to the privacy of a single family home. I didn't want to listen to neighbors fighting and kids screaming in the pool! I was a little concerned with how close the house was to the 101 but as soon as I shut the doors, I forgot all about the freeway! The double pane windows keep it quiet and cool and the extra tall wall makes the yard and pool extra quiet. Arizona was the first place to use a 1 inch layer of rubber on the freeways to make them quieter and it really works! http://asa.scitation.org/doi/10.1121/1.4780322
I got everything on my wish list and I didn't have to pay thousands a year in HOA dues! Over the years, I completed upgrades like replacing the carpets, with stone floors, resurfacing the pool with pebble tec, putting in a new turf lawn, new roof, new double pane windows and AC with air scrubbers until the home was just right. Now renters love the same things I did about the home: It has all the benefits of a freestanding home for the price of a condo. And without condo fees, I can pass the savings along to the guests. Judging by the number of return guests each year, Loop 101 is actually a pretty good neighbor!
What makes this property unique
Ask about discounted summer rates No stairs, pet friendly, minutes to everything, private pool & yard, quiet well maintained neighborhood with very little traffic. There is not a single window that looks into your neighbors windows so it feels VERY private and secure.
