About this property
Cozy Casita w/ Mtn View + Pool & Hot Tub Access
Experience the beauty of Arizona when you stay at this cozy 1-bed, 1-bath Carefree vacation rental! Situated on 1.8 acres of private land, this townhome provides a secluded area to relax, unwind, and create unforgettable memories with your loved ones. Spend your days splashing around in the heated pool, firing up the grill and enjoying a delicious BBQ, or relaxing on the balcony and admiring the panoramic views of the desert. End the night by the fire pit, roasting marshmallows under the stars!
-- THE PROPERTY --
Bedroom 1: Queen Bed | Living Room: Queen Murphy Bed | Additional Sleeping: Full Air Mattress (Upon Request)
This beautiful Carefree casita is situated on a 1.8-acre private estate, offering all the comforts of home in a stunning desert location. When you need a break from the southwestern sun, head into the spacious living room and relax on the comfy sectional. As you stream an Arizona classic like 'Stagecoach' on the flat-screen Smart TV, you'll have gorgeous desert views out the large glass doors.
Don't feel like going out to dinner? Whip up a snack in the kitchenette and enjoy a cozy night in.
Find respite from the chilly desert evenings in front of the electric fireplace or around your private patio's fire pit before retreating inside for the evening.
As your friends drift to sleep in the queen Murphy bed, head up the spiral staircase to the bedroom suite. Complete with a Queen bed, panoramic views, and a flat-screen Smart TV, this lofted space feels truly 5-star.
After a morning cup o' Joe on the furnished balcony, take advantage of the property's Oasis pool. Sitting just steps from the casita, the pool area will transport you to an all-inclusive tropical resort.
If you're traveling with a larger group and require additional sleeping accommodations, see Evolve listing 404966, a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom vacation rental townhome casita that sleeps 5 and accommodates up to 6.
-- THE LOCATION --
When stomachs start to rumble, just walk down the road to the Townsquare in Downtown Carefree or head 2 miles down the road to Cave Creek and send your taste buds to heaven. Housing top-notch eateries like Carefree Bistro and fun hot spots like Buffalo Chip Saloon and Steakhouse, there is something for everyone in this small Arizona town.
Grab your golf clubs and spend a day hitting the links at one of the area's many award-winning courses. As you lounge in your cozy casita, you'll be just 3 minutes from Boulder's Resort, 10 miles from Troon North and close to Rancho Manana and Carefree Resort.
Can't seem to beat the heat? Take a short 40-minute drive to Bartlett Lake and take a quick dip. This gorgeous lake, surrounded by surrounded by gorgeous desert vegetation, is a great place to fish, boat, swim, and picnic.
Looking for some night life and entertainment?…..just head on into Old Town Scottsdale or Phoenix for your choice of venue and entertainment. Feel like dropping some money in the Casinos? No problem! They are just a jump away for those looking to empty their pockets of extra change.
Like to visit the Grand Canyon? It's a perfect stop on the way to/from the Grand Canyon, or for guests who may attending weddings and events at nearby resorts, or visiting artists displays at local festivals. Hiking, horse-back riding, shopping, and other activities abound!
In order to fully appreciate the unique Arizona topography, you'll need to hike some of the area's gorgeous trails. You'll never forget the towering cacti and unique landscapes you saw as you hiked Black Mountain and Pinnacle Peak Trails.
