Convenient Desert Ridge
The property is exactly as described. Although it would certainly accommodate a larger group, it was well-suited to my wife and my needs. The backyard is compact but there is lots of outdoor furniture and a very nice pool and hot tub. We would certainly rent again if the house is available.

Wow- just perfect! 5 stars!
This house did not disappoint! Everything was perfect-- the house is beautiful and super clean. It was the best stocked property we have ever stayed in and was not lacking for anything! The house is also super family friendly. We stayed with our kids, ranging from ages 2-10. Dana provided multiple pack n plays, crib sheets, baby blankets, a high chair, and a booster seat. The house was also stocked with children's books, coloring books, and plenty of games and puzzles (kids had a blast). The neighborhood is quiet and safe and in a great location for convenience. There were multiple playgrounds within walking distance, and a 5 minute drive to a large mall and any other store needed to grab last minute items (Target, CVS, etc.). Lastly, Dana was very easy to communicate with-- she often responded to messages immediately and checked in multiple times throughout the trip to ensure that everything was "perfect," stressing that no issue is too big or too small. But, we never even had to call her- since no issues ever came up! Definitely recommend! We already miss our home away from home!

Home away from home!
We felt very at home, comfortable, safe, good location! We will be visiting a couple times a year with our son now living in Phoenix and I feel we have found our home away from home ❤️ Beds were comfortable with plenty of blankets and nice pillows. Pool area is a fabulous hang out area. Kitchen is fully stocked, even had extras that we have previously had to purchase on other trips. Loft area is super cozy to hang out in and watch tv. Very pleased with our stay and accommodations!

A great house for a multi-generational gathering!
This house is something special. It was perfect for my husband and me, our son and daughter-in-law, and two grandchildren while we were in Phoenix to celebrate a wedding. We appreciated having spaces where we could all gather and spaces where we could separate a little. The kids especially enjoyed the upstairs sitting area for play and TV watching. The pool and spa were also big hits. The safety locks on the sliding doors out to the patio were actually what decided me on this house; it gave me peace of mind to know that the children couldn’t wander out unsupervised. The house was immaculate when we arrived. It’s beautifully decorated and welcoming and equipped with everything that we needed, particularly in the kitchen. The beds were very comfortable. We appreciated the clear instructions for check-in and check-out and the excellent communication with Bonnie, the property concierge.

Bigger than expected
This place fit six adults and a baby perfectly. The dedicated office was a must for people working remote during our vacation. Kids amenities are available which was nice and saved us room in our luggage. Communication was very clear. Only downside was parking in the neighborhood - you must be able to fit all cars in the garage. The no overnight street parking rule is enforced.

Best VRBO we have ever used
My 4 adult daughters and I enjoyed a week at Desert Ridge as we remembered the life of their Dad on the aniversity of his death last year. It was perfect for the 5 of us, each with our own beds. The house is stocked with everything we needed and was perfectly located near shoping and things to see and do. Since we live across the U.S. it was easy for all of us to get to.

About the host

Hosted by Dana Thornton

Host profile image
Born and raised in a small town in Texas, I spent summers fishing, sailing, and riding my horse. I came to visit Scottsdale in 1990, fell in love with the city and the beautiful desert and decided to make it my home. I met my husband Greg in 1992, and we have been inseparable ever since. We own a technology marketing company together. I am also a 3rd generation designer, and my passions are real estate, architecture and design. We own several residential rental properties, as well as 2 commercial properties and 3 properties in beautiful Belize.

Why they chose this property

The sanctuary backyard includes private pool, private spa and several seating areas, from outdoor dining, deep cushion seating areas and chaise lounges. The kitchen was specifically appointed for the gourmet chef, with Henkel knives, and quality pots, pans, caserole dishes, ample rubbermade storage containers, bowls, crock pot, rice cooker, blender, toaster, electric wine opener, and 2 large drawers full of all of small utensils you could possibly need. Pizza cutter, garlic press, lime juicer, etc. And a large walk-in pantry gives you more food and beverage storage than you could possibly need. And for the grillmaster, there's a barbeque grill outside. Top quality mattresses, plush soft towels and sheets. These are touches you don't often find all together in other rentals.

What makes this property unique

I am a stickler for cleanliness, soft beds and luxurious linens. I am a Marriott girl and I expect them when I travel, and I do not skimp on them for my guests. And CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN!!! Bright white quilts, duvet covers and soft white linens you can SEE are super clean. Add in some feather pillows, and the most expensive, fluffy towels you can buy at Bed Bath and Beyond, and the little slice of heaven is complete. Call me and book it today!
