Great location!!! It was close to everything we wanted to do while there. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking to visit Scottsdale!” - Erica

“The home had everything we wanted and more. Seemed like each room was better than the prior one which was a pleasant surprise. Nicely decorated with comfortable beds and seemed very new. The kitchen had everything we needed and the backyard was amazing...pool table, hammock and games, etc. We spent most of our time out there - great atmosphere and place to hang out with friends. Close to airport and anything you might want to do in Scottsdale. Highly recommend and we'll stay there again for sure!” - Randy
