About this property
Desert Movie House | Pool, Shuffleboard & Bikes
Summary:
Ride a beach cruiser home from Old Town dinner, start a movie with fresh popcorn, then finish the night by the fire pit!
• Walk or bike to Old Town
• Private movie theater
• Pool table & shuffleboard
• Private pool & fire pit
• 4 beach cruisers included
• Dogs & little ones welcome
• Family Friendly - Pack n Play & High Chair
The Space:
Popcorn in the theater, a shuffleboard rematch under the "Cocktails and Cactus" neon, and a poolside nightcap once the desert air cools off. That's a pretty perfect evening at A Desert Dream, our desert-modern 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath home tucked just west of Old Town Scottsdale. Restaurants and nightlife are an easy walk away, and even closer on a bike!
Where everyone sleeps:
• Bedroom 1 (upstairs): King bed, private bath with walk-in shower and freestanding tub, plus a workspace
• Bedroom 3 (upstairs): King canopy bed, Jack & Jill bath shared with Bedroom 4
• Bedroom 4 (upstairs): King bed, Jack & Jill bath shared with Bedroom 3
• Bedroom 5 (main floor): Two full beds, private ensuite bath
• Half bath on the main floor
Inside: Sunlight pours through big windows into the vaulted living room, where a huge cloud-style couch and a 70" TV face the open kitchen and dining area. Cook up a feast with stainless appliances and tons of counter space, or shake up drinks with the bar tools. Then head to the game room for pool and shuffleboard, which opens straight out to the yard. Movie night comes with theater seats, a big projector, and a popcorn machine!
Outside: Stretch out on a poolside lounger, fire up the grill, and gather around the fire pit. There's cornhole, giant Jenga, and Yardzee for the competitive crowd, plus a painted cactus mural for your group photo.
Also here: washer and dryer, pack 'n play, high chair, dog bowls, and parking for two cars.
This home works well for families, friend trips, and multi-generational groups. Four of the five bedrooms are up a flight of stairs, so the main-floor Bedroom 5 is a great pick for anyone who'd rather skip them.
Our local team is just around the corner during your stay, so all you have to plan is where to ride for dinner!
SPECTACULAR RESORT-STYLE BACKYARD & POOL:
• Private pool (+$125/night) For September to May!
• Poolside Loungers
• Outdoor Fire Pit
• BBQ Grill
• Painted Cactus and Succulent Mural
• Tons of Outdoor Seating
Guest Access:
The whole home, backyard, and pool are yours with easy keypad entry. The owner's closets and the detached garage apartment are locked and not part of the rental.
The Neighborhood:
You'll stay on a peaceful residential street on the edge of Old Town Scottsdale, close to all the action and quiet enough for a good night's sleep.
Food & drink: Old Town's patios, cafes, cocktail bars, and late-night spots are about a 10 to 15 minute walk, or a few minutes by bike.
Shopping & art: Galleries, boutiques, and Western-themed shops are a short ride away, and Scottsdale's big upscale mall is just a few minutes further.
Outdoors: Red rock trails at Papago Park and the famous Camelback Mountain hikes are about 10 to 20 minutes by car. Golfers have dozens of courses within an easy drive, and in spring you can walk to a spring training game!
Uber and Lyft are quick and easy to find all over the area.
Getting Around:
Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport is about a 15 to 20 minute drive. Once you're settled, the beach cruisers handle most trips into Old Town. The driveway holds two cars, and street parking is fine too as long as you avoid the spots in front of neighbors' homes.

Thanks for the review! We're glad the location worked well for you and made Old Town easy to explore. Hope to welcome you back next time you're in town. —Jeff & Bridget
We celebrated my wife’s 32nd birthday and absolutely loved our experience. Kelly the host was very kind and helpful with our stay. The house itself is beautiful, clean, spacious and trendy. My wife and I loved all the amenities and also appreciated the proximity to many amazing restaurants in the Scottsdale area. We had a great time swimming with our family there and felt the pool lighting definitely added to the ambience in the evening. I would definitely recommend this home for anyone looking for an amazing place to stay!

I hosted a bachelorette stay for my best friend and some of our friends and wanted to give them the vacation of their dreams. This house was a total hit and exceeded expectations.
Great house, Great location. Big bedrooms with private bathrooms. We had a party of 6. We all had own bathrooms. Plenty of onsite entertainment if you want to chill at the house. Walking distance to Old Town. We will definitely Vrbo this house again!
We stayed for one week. Our family of four loved the property and location. It was easy to walk into town. The home had everything we needed. We enjoyed the pool, pool table and shuffle board table. There is everything needed to cook a nice meal. They provided shampoo, conditioner and body wash in every bathroom. We will definitely be back! Great house! Host was very responsive!
This stay was absolutely wonderful! Kelly was a gem of a host. She was very easy to communicate with and very responsive and helpful during our trip. The house had many amenities and honestly looked even better than the pictures in real life which is saying something! It was a great stay at an incredible price. The house is stunning with beautiful decor and furniture and there was not a single issue that we had. Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay here again if we visit Scottsdale another time! Thank you Kelly!
