About this property
Park Setting with Pool! Old Town Scottsdale, ASU, PHX, Papago Park, Zoo, DBG
My home is part of an enclave of patio homes in a well maintained community (+pool) that is centrally located, and across from a beautiful park that makes you feel like you're away from it all!.
It's a single story 2 bed 2 bath townhome with a beautiful park/preserve across the street and a saltwater pool just steps away. The kitchen and bath have been remodeled with new cabinets, appliances, shower. The home is located a few minutes from Old Town Scottsdale, ASU, Papago Park, Desert Botanical Garden, many golf courses, and the airport.
What makes my home special is that it was actually my home! It's not another cookie cutter rental by a faceless company. I have lived in this community for over 20 years and it still feels as unique as it did when I first moved here. The pool is beautiful and barely used, and the large park system across the street offers desert adventure. You can take a walk through the park to the lookout over the zoo and see the bighorn sheep, giraffes, lions, and usually a beautiful sunset. The back patio is unique with a natural wash running behind it where you'll often see quail, rabbits, and even the occasional coyote!
WE DON"T HAVE ANY CAMERAS, EXTRA FEES, OR CRAZY CLEANING REQUIREMENT. Enjoy YOUR stay!
You have access to the entire house and a 2 car, enclosed garage.
It's a special area located in South Scottsdale/North Tempe that is close to all of the activities and attractions of the area, yet when you return home it will be a quiet, enjoyable, and peaceful home. We are always responsive to any needs or questions and will do all we can to ensure you have very enjoyable stay.
*The salt water pool has just been refurbished (10/22) and is better than ever!

About the host
Hosted by Sandra Conner

We do enjoy making our guests stay a special experience. Whether that's making sure the place is immaculately clean; or providing holiday decorations, a birthday/graduation gift, or supporting a guest during their Ironman competition. We enjoy hosting good people and love it when they enjoy our place, our location, and the abundance of activities available :)
Why they chose this property
It's close to everything in the East Valley that you would want to do, and a great home base if you are venturing further to the Grand Canyon and Sedona. Many of our guests are return visitors so see for yourself and we'll likely see you for years to come :)
What makes this property unique
Besides being a charming house with all the amenities you would want; the closest house across the street is about 100 yards away. The back patio does not look directly at another house, but instead a natural wash that actually has running water during a winter storm or a summer monsoon. You will often see doves, quail, rabbits, and the occasional coyote (most likely at dusk or dawn). Not to worry, there is a fence! :) The pool is visible from the driveway and about 50 yards away. It's a beautiful salt water pool and it is very likely you will have the pool all to yourself. I think it's way better than a backyard pool since you don't have to deal with pump noise, cleaning, and chemicals - let the pool maintenance crew deal with that. The park system and pond across the street is amazing! The pond is great for fishing (trout, bass, catfish, bluegill, and carp) or bird watching. There are herons, egrets, ducks, hawks, the occasional bald eagle! And keep and eye out for the resident turtles :) Further into the park you have Hunts Tomb and Hole in the Rock, both favorite sunset/sunrise locations. And from these points you'll be looking over the zoo with giraffes and the big horn sheep roaming freely up on the red rock buttes! You'll be a 5-10 minute drive from: Old Town Scottsdale, Downtown Tempe, ASU, Tempe Town Lake, Papago and Rolling Hills golf courses (and more), Desert Botanical Gardens (a must do), airport, 5 grocery stores ... And yes the list could go on! It really is a unique property in a unique location. We love the area and hopefully you will have the chance to enjoy it on your next visit to Phoenix. We are new to VRBO, but we have many reviews on a well known competitor's website; see all our 5-Star reviews. The last unique feature is that we are 100% dedicated to our guest's enjoyment. We manage ONE property - the one you will staying in! We live nearby so if there is something you want we will respond with a smile and in a jiffy!
