You will think you are at a luxury hotel...Relax and have a glass of wine with good friends, family and guests by the warmth of the outdoor Kiva Fireplace which is surrounded by a lovely Travertine terraced area. Or slip into, and enjoy your heated Pebble-Tec pool complete with a rock ''Waterfall'' feature. When it is time to really relax, take a spot by the pool on your chaise lounge chair and allow the tranquility inducing sound of the rock ''water feature'' to take you away to a serene babbling brook. If you need a more robust water-fall sound, just raise the flow rate - you decide how you want to relax!
While in your home for your extended stay, you will enjoy an impeccably maintained and very clean property that is almost 3,000 sq ft of living space and all on one floor. The 4 Bedroom, 2 1/2 Bath home is an open floor plan between the Kitchen, Family room and Breakfast area. CLICK ON 'AMENITIES' TO READ MORE
The Master Bedroom, which has a private entrance to the pool area, is tastefully decorated in a South Western theme and has a bathroom that is typically found only in luxury hotels.

Your Rental Home is situated in the much desired section of Northeast Scottsdale, better known as Troon (Troon North and Troon Village). The area is renowned for it's uniqueness of topography, beautiful vistas, great golf, fun, and easy resort living.
When relaxing by the pool area or Kiva Fire Place, you will notice your own private Saguaro Cactus-bed complete with prickly pear cactus and other Sonoran desert indigenous plantings. The landscaping is artfully completed and is only surpassed by the all-encompassing views: Look straight ahead and you are looking at the beginning of the beautiful McDowell Mountain range. When you look to your right you will find yourself awestruck and perplexed by the unusual mountain and rock formation that is truly a work of nature. We 'locals'' simply know it better as, Troon Mountain.
When you are tired of just relaxing, then it is time to enjoy the many outdoor activities inherent to the area. The hiking in the area is phenomenal. Take a 1 hour (up and back) walk from the base of Pinnacle Peak to the observation area to take in the outstanding views. Pinnacle Peak is 'Family Friendly' and easy for all.
Or indulge your need for varying degrees of challenge and exercise by taking a more rigorous hike on one of the many trails in the McDowell Mountain Regional Park. The biking is great in the area as well!
If it is golf you are looking for then you have found the place with some of the best golfing anywhere. Each year, Troon North Golf course's Monument and Pinnacle courses rank number 1 and 2 for best public courses in Arizona and it is only a 4 minute drive away! Within a 30 minute's drive you will find scores of excellent courses from the much acclaimed TPC Scottsdale to the incredible views of We-Ko-Pa. You will be challenged, but you will never be bored playing the many great desert courses that the area has to offer.
Scottsdale is known for it's eclectic, casual and fine dining.
ABOUT THE OWNER:
Hi! My name is Chris and I am the co-owner of the property that you are considering for your rental in beautiful Scottsdale, Arizona. I want to tell you a little about me to help you become familiar with the person that you will be trusting do deliver a great vacation home and family memories, all at a great price.
My wife and I, and our two adult children live in Southeastern Pennsylvania.
I am an avid golfer, hiker and runner. In addition, I like to relax in the warmth of the Sonoran desert when it is time to unwind from my busy Wealth Management practice in which I am a partner.
As a long-time fan of the desert southwest, my family and I have been traveling to the Phoenix / Scottsdale area twice per year for the last 14 years. We fell in love with North Scottsdale 12 years ago. The hiking in Phoenix, Scottsdale and Cave Creek are wonderful as well as some of the scenic views that you take in while running in the area.
The shopping and great restaurants keep me and the family busy when we are not relaxing by the pool or taking in the nature of the High Sonoran desert. We often will do a day trip (north, to Red Rock / Sedona or west to Prescott or south to Tucson). Either direction affords us a change of scenery all within a two hour drive. We have even done a long weekend in Las Vegas via driving (including seeing the Hoover dam!)
Our long-term goal is to eventually live in Scottsdale from January through April to escape the cold of the Northeast. Until that time arises, you will have the opportunity to enjoy our lovely getaway destination.
