Whether your interests lie in perusing Scottsdale’s premier outdoor malls - Kierland Commons and Scottsdale Quarter, heading to the TPC - home to the WM Phoenix Open, or to WestWorld which hosts Scottsdale’s premier events including - the Barrett Jackson Car Show, the Arabian Horse Show and the Bentley Scottsdale Polo Championships, or to enjoy one of the many scenic desert hikes with breath-taking vistas, our home’s central location provides optimal access to all of it. Our home is less than 3 miles from Mayo Clinic.

Our home's impressive outdoor space wows with a resort-style pool (heated upon request for an additional fee), a private putting green, ping pong table, expansive covered patio with multiple lounge areas, a gas BBQ and a wood-fired pizza oven.

About the host
Hosted by Christie Holland
We love to travel and explore and do so any chance we get, but after an active day out and about, especially with children, coming "home" to a hotel room - with its cramped quarters and lack of privacy - got old pretty quickly. Then in 2020 as the covid pandemic hit, hotel stays took on a whole other set of challenges. With vacation rentals popping up all over the place, it became possible to have all the comforts of a home away from home, no matter what corner of the world we wanted to explore, and with that we were hooked!
Because we have chosen to make the desert our home, at least for part of the year - we think it's an amazing place to live life and raise a family - we decided to invest in our own vacation rental and offer fellow explorers the opportunity to experience all the comforts of home while exploring the beauty of the 48th State!
For anyone interested - we do have another vacation rental in Durango, CO on 17-private acres with unparalleled views of the San Juan mountain range. You'll find it right here on vrbo: Property 2018541. Check it out!

Why they chose this property
We purchased this home to be vacation rental. When renovating we challenged ourselves to provide what we felt a guest would need and enjoy, but avoiding surplus clutter so as to leave the space feeling open and airy - a place to relax and feel at home.
Indoors we created larger gathering spaces for meals, TV viewing or board game playing, as well as smaller, more intimate spaces such as the seating area in the primary bedroom by the fireplace or downstairs in the bar / sitting area, for privacy and quiet time. We knew there was a chance that in our Zoom-era that a guest might need to check in with work and attend on-line meetings, so we made sure there was a designated office space far enough removed from the main living areas to ensure adequate privacy, as well as high speed internet access. We also considered the guest who after a full day of activity might like to come home and enjoy a relaxing soak in the oversized free standing bath tub!
With so much to do in and around Scottsdale, we figured there would be days when hitting the snooze button and staying home to recharge would be the order of the day, so we made sure to think about what that might look like. The kitchen is fully equipped for all your cooking and baking needs. There is high speed internet access, more than ample for streaming shows on one of the three ROKU TVs. There is a wide selection of board games and puzzles available for some old-fashioned fun. Outdoors we imagined BBQ'ing or trying your hand at pizza-making in the wood fired pizza oven, swimming, basketball, golf or a game of corn hole as fun backyard activities, or simply chilling in the hammock under the clear blue desert sky!
All in all, we tried to recreate what we would like to have as a family exploring a new place, without compromising the comforts of home. From property location, layout, furnishings, amenities, cleanliness, to availability if you need to reach us, we tried to cover all the bases. Hopefully you'll agree!

What makes this property unique
We chose this particular home as a vacation rental because in addition to all the benefits of being located in a quiet residential neighborhood (safety being paramount), it lies smack dab in the middle of everything that is anything. Getting around is made easy because of the home's proximity to main streets and freeways. So whether your plan is to stay local and explore the myriad of activities that Scottsdale and Phoenix are famous for, all only minutes away in any direction; to head north and explore Arizona's wine country (Cornville and Cottonwood), Sedona's stunning Red Rocks, the cooler temperature of Flagstaff's high country, or perhaps take a Hot Air Balloon ride, or head south towards Tucson and visit the Biosphere 2, Kartchner Caverns, or Tombstone, it's all easily possible.
So, whether you stay at home and strike your own balance between indoor and outdoor desert living, or venture further afield, you'll be amazed at how easy and how accessible everything is from this home and this neighborhood.
