Winter Break

Beautiful home. Great communication with owner. Dave was very prompt and helpful. Recommend property without reservation. First night saw the most spectacular sunset we have ever seen any place in the world!”

Incredible sunsets.

The Sonoran Beauty was a beautiful and unique home with a perfect view of the sunset each evening. We had a wonderful stay. It’s important to note that although the address says Scottsdale it is quite a ways from Scottsdale. It’s actually in Carefree so you should plan your trip accordingly. It’s also in the beautiful but private Deseret Mountain community and you cannot play the golf courses or frequent the restaurants. ”

Thank you Dave for sharing your beautiful home with our family for Christmas. The home is spectacular. Sunset views from the patio and hot tub were stunning. We loved the hiking trails. Close to Rancho Mañana Golf and the Tonto Grill. We hope to be back again soon. ”
