About Laney Nelson

My husband and I grew up on opposite sides of the country - he in Washington and myself in Massachusetts. We're both Huskies, he Washington State and me, UCONN. Together, we have four sons and 3 grandchildren. We have a permanent home in California but travel to Scottsdale as often as we can. We plan to retire in Scottsdale someday but until then, we enjoy sharing our home with others.

Laney Nelson purchased this house in 2006
Why Laney Nelson chose Scottsdale North

We chose to live in Terravita because it is a gated community with a championship golf course, Health Club, pool, community facilities and activities, and on-site access to shopping, restaurants, etc. We looked many homes in Terravita but chose this one because of its single story open floor plan. location on the golf course, sunset views and easy access in/out of side gate,

What makes this house unique

This home was vacant when we bought it with a newly updated kitchen. It afforded me a great opportunity to put my decorating skills to work and create the home I always wanted from scratch. We bought everything new. We landscaped the yard, put in a spool and built in BBQ area, and repainted the entire home, inside and out. It's beautiful! It's our home, not an income property.

I wish I were there...

Submitted: January 7, 2013 Stayed: September 2012
This has been by far the best holiday we've ever had!

The house was spectacular! Laney and John have done an amazing job with the decor and the maintenance of the house (they are very proud of their house and it shows). Laney was very personable and answered all of our questions. The house is in a gated community and there is lots of shopping near by.

My husband, my two year old twins and my parents in-law stayed in this beautiful house in October 2012. My in-laws stayed in La Casita during their stay (it was nice that at the end of the day I could wear comfortable clothing in the main house - La Casita provided lots of privacy for both families).

The kitchen is fully equipped (napkins, plates, cups - glass and plastic -, wine opener, wine fridge, toaster, zip lock bags, saran wrap, and everything else that you could think of), it has a two car garage, a huge master bedroom and a large size spare bedroom (linens, towels, etc. were provided too!), an office / den space, formal dining room, TV room, and a beautiful living room with a fireplace.

The entire family fell in love with the patio. It was so comfortable and relaxing. Everyday we had breakfast, lunch and dinner in the patio (we are from Canada and we don't get to do this very often). The backyard was large enough for our twins to play, it was beautifully landscaped, and the heated spool was to die for (our kids learned how to 'swim' there).

We would definitely stay here again and we would highly recommend this house to anyone that wants to have a relaxing and memorable holiday.

Thanks Laney and John!

Fantastic Home! Stunning Location!

5 of 5
Submitted: August 19, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
We had a fantastic month in your home mid June-July, thank you. We loved the light, airy and spacious feel of your house and garden. Although the garden backs onto the golf course, it's elevated position ensures privacy with a lovely open feeling and sunsets. We absolutely loved the spot. The photographs do not do justice ....we were more impressed when there. Writing this comment I wish I was there now!

The house is tastefully, carefully and thoughtfully equipped to a very high standard. We had excellent communication with you for any question or request which was immediately dealt with....new sun loungers delivered.

I feel you are most interested and concerned that anyone staying in your house is happy....we would recommend your house.

We enjoy desert life and my 24yr old son also enjoyed the facities of the club. People we met there were very friendly.

We enjoyed several restaurants in the area including Uncle Louie's which is a 2min drive. For us we mainly BBQ'd and ate outside, lighting the torches or gas fire for extra effect !

We are longing to be back and just hope that one day this will be possible.

Winter Retreat

5 of 5
Submitted: May 21, 2012 Stayed: January 2012
What a lovely home - we were very happy here for 4 winter months. The house is everything the web site promises and more. It is tastefully furnished, comfortable and clean. Every detail is considered down to lovely napkin rings and candles for the table. We did not need to purchase anything other than the standard disposables as we have needed to do in previous rental houses. A few days of even the disposables were provided so we did not have to go shopping immediately upon arrival.
The owners were immediately responsive to any concerns and could not have been more helpful.
The house is in a very nice gated community with a nice pool, tennis courts and golf. Lots of good restaurants are within a short drive, movie theaters are only 15 minutes away and all of the Scottsdale and Phoenix activities are within easy driving distance. The homeowner provided copies of Phoenix Magazine and brochures about everything there is to offer in the area.
We had lovely views in the backyard and my kids visited and were very happy in the heated spool.
The casita was very comfortable and my 18 year old grandson visited for Presidents Weekend as was very happy to have the privacy of his own space and little refrigerator. We had several other guests during our stay and everyone raved about the house.
I can't think of anything that was not provided that we needed. The master bed room is large with a great king size bed and lovely chaise that is a great place to relax with a good book.
Both my husband and I had work to do and the office was complete down to the last paperclip, printer and file drawers.
Whether you are taking a short vacation or looking to stay for several weeks you will be very pleased with this house, it's even better in person than the pictures show.

Great House

Submitted: May 7, 2011 Stayed: December 2010
Our stay for four months was delightful. The house is beautiful and decorated to perfection. The dishes, the silverware, coffeemaker, glassware and accessories are a plus. Everything is upgraded, and nothing is lacking. Being on the golf course is a pleasure with the backyard providing hours for good entertaining..
All we can say, is that everyone that came over said "what a lovely home" and were so impressed, as were we..We felt very fortunate to have stayed here...
