My family of 7 spent a week in this beautiful house. We especially loved all of the different places to congregate (pool area, upstairs patio, front yard fireplace, movie room, and family room) and the incredible backyard. Everything inside and outside of the house was clean and in perfect condition. We will definitely be back!

April 2026

Really liked this home for our group of 7 (all adults) — spacious, comfortable bedrooms, well-equipped kitchen and very nice outdoor spaces. Spent a lot of time in the pool, grilling meals, fire pits in the evenings. Quiet Scottsdale neighborhood, remote from central PHX (20-25 mins to Old Town, 30 to downtown PHX). Only a few issues — most important, the plumbing is quirky. Took some work with Travli and the owner to get hot water to all bathrooms and kitchen, some patience is required. Hol tub also, not consistently hot. Small things — bedroom doors need a hit of WD-40 to kill loud squeaking. Living room/kitchen level kinda empty, could use more furniture and maybe a rug or two. Cannot say enough positive about the management company for the home, Travli. Communication was outstanding, from pre-booking questions to adding experiences, to instructions and help with operating certain features. Travli responded literally within 1-2 minutes every time, no matter what time of day
