Thank you, Steve! Great hosting you, come back anytime!
The host really went out of her way to make us feel at home. After learning that we played MahJongg, she secured a set for us to use during our visit. The back patio is a relaxing oasis and the property is conveniently located to a variety of hikes as well as upscale shops. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this property and it’s gracious host.

Hi Margaret, I am so thrilled you and your family enjoyed themselves on vacation. I hope that you will consider staying with us next time as well :-) thank you so much for being great guests!
This property was exactly what we needed while we were visiting extended family at a distance during the holidays - a clean, nicely equipped home, in a quiet neighborhood, close to shops and trails of North Scottsdale. The owner had great communication with us leading up to and during our stay; she was so attentive to our needs. Relaxing in the hot tub was the icing on top! We definitely recommend this property and hope to stay here again.

Perfect vacation!
Everything about the home was perfection from the great location to the home itself to the super responsiveness of the owners from the time we made our reservations until our departure. Loved the community pool and playground just a short walk from the house. Did mountain biking and hiking right out our front door. Home was best supplied VRBO we’d ever stayed in from the bedding to pool towels to the Keurig with coffee to our own hot tub. Definitely recommend!

The location was great. The property was clean. Our only comment is that it was a little pricey for what it was. It was our first VRBO. I learned a lot about the process. The hostess was great and very responsive.

Everything We Were Promised and More
We recently stayed at this fabulous home, and Rachelle delivered on everything she promised and more. Hot tub was perfect after long hours on the golf course, and the neighborhood is clean, quiet, and full of amenities. The house was clean, the toiletries were top of the line, and the beds were comfy. We will definitely make this our first choice the next time we visit Scottsdale.

Everything about this was great!
We loved Rachelle's home! It was at the end of a vacation traveling throughout Arizona having stayed at 2 other properties, and was by far the best. Rachelle was a thoughtful and gracious host who made a special effort to ensure all our needs were met. From a personalized welcome letter and flowers to the spa-like bath supplies and refrigerator stocked with beverages, breakfast foods and snacks, she thought of everything! The immaculate home was open and spacious with comfortable beds for our family of 5 adults. Located in a well-maintained neighborhood with a beautiful community center and convenient to everything we wanted to do and see. We would highly recommend! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Overall nice and comfortable, with a couple of notes
Overall comfortable, pleasant home in a quiet family neighborhood. Hot tub right out the back door is very nice. The beds were comfortable. Having access to the nearby community center is a huge plus. If you have kids, there is a nice playground there, and a pool.
The main drawback was that the kitchen was poorly equipped. So if you like to do a lot of cooking, keep that in mind. Specifically, there were no chefs knives, or even any large chopping knives of any kind - all small parking knives. There was also only one small cutting board and one baking sheet. And finally, all of the pans were non stick. so nothing heavier duty which you may want depending on your needs.
But if you keep that in mind, and plan accordingly, then you'll be all set.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 Jan, 2023
I was quite surprised by this review. The home is well equipped with kitchenware which none of my (21) 5-star reviewers have ever taken issue. If the guest had asked me for additional items I could have accommodated, but he never did.
Rather than thanking us for the full fridge of starter food and drinks we left for their party of 5, we were repaid with a full trash can left in the house rather than taken to the bin, an unflushed toilet filled with excrement, and a dirty diaper hidden under the bathroom cabinet which they claim was placed there by their baby?? Unreal. And then asked me why I gave only 1-star for cleanliness...They also didn't follow house rules by covering the hot tub when not in use, which caused ample debris and strain on the pump. Very inconsiderate to say the least.
Lovely home in a great neighborhood. We made use of the hot tub, and the community swimming pool. Close to many trails, great for hiking, birdwatching, and seeing other wildlife. We enjoyed our month long stay, and hope we can return sometime soon.

Why they chose this property
I bought this home because I love McDowell Mountain Ranch and all it has to offer. I work from home and enjoy the trails, people and nearby restaurants all day long. The paths are adorned with wildlife and like-minded people who enjoy the outdoors, animals, and being part of the Ranch. I know you will enjoy it, too!
What makes this property unique
This home is large enough to give you the space you need, yet cozy enough to feel embraced by your surroundings. The color scheme gives it personality and a uniqueness coupled with special touches in the lighting and customized fixtures we chose to make it home.
