With walls of windows bringing the outside in, a spacious living area, and idyllic private patios, let the beauty of nature be the backdrop for sweet memories in our scenic and peaceful hillside haven. Our guests love the careful blending of original art and mid century style with modern comforts. Only 15 minutes from the airport, our guests love the convenient central city location. Includes free electric vehicle charging with Level 2 outlet. (Must have own cable.)

Note: a walk thru video is available when utilizing a PC /Laptop. Just click on pictures. (Will not show when in VRBO app.)
Experience Phoenix - enjoy the beautiful changing mountain views at sunset, then turn and enjoy the twinkling city lights as the day comes to a peaceful end. Relax in this spacious 1st floor separate guest retreat and enjoy the beauty of Arizona from the cozy view patio or through the many windows showcasing the amazing views. Our location is also in a perfect central phoenix location, right off Hwy 51, for heading out to enjoy the various points of interest. Our rental includes premium high speed internet, Apple TV (and Netflix, Hulu, HBO, ESPN), two private patios, new modern kitchenette, Weber grill, and your own private contactless keypad entrance. We offer a quick informational tour on arrival and are then available by messaging for any guest needs.
LOCATION - Great central city location (easy SR 51 access) in a wonderful shady walkable resort neighborhood.
*** 15 mins- Airport / downtown
*** 20 mins-ASU/ Grand Canyon Univ / Phx Zoo / Botanical Garden / Old Town Scottsdale
Blocks from entrance to miles of hiking paths in the Dreamy Draw Recreation Preserve. A quick 1/2 mile walk or bike ride to the canal entrance. Literally yards to Hilton at the Peak Resort. A short walk to several resort and neighborhood restaurants.

PRIVACY - While we reside in the upper level, guests enjoy a separate entrance, separate air conditioning and ventilation, and the entire 1st floor with private patios — a guest suite all to themselves. With no close-by neighbors, our place is an idyllic nature get away.

BIKE, RUN, WALK, WORKOUT - Enjoy a resort setting within the Hilton Pointe at Squaw Peak community with mature trees and cacti - a shady walkable community. If you enjoy walking running, or biking - our neighborhood offers a rare opportunity in the middle of the city - to enjoy without traffic. Hiking and riding trails (and the canal) are an easy walk away.
*** The resort spa & fitness, Tocasierra, offers daily passes to fitness center including access to (adults only) pool with jacuzzi. The Hilton at the Peak can be contacted directly for information regarding daily passes to the River Ranch with waterslide, lazy river, and miniature golf. Both Tocasierra and the River Ranch are only yards away from our guest suite.
*** The Arizona Canal stretches nearly 39 miles from east of Scottsdale through Phoenix and into Peoria. It’s part of the 132 miles of canals in the metropolitan area. Access to the canal is a quick 1/2 mile walk through the neighborhood (just past Sumida Park).
*** Access to the Dreamy Draw Recreation Preserve is a comfortable walk or very short drive. This preserve is an amazing natural treasure right in our neighborhood.

INTERNET/WORK SPACE - A great space for remote workers
*** Premium High Speed Internet *** - Cox Gigablast -

Includes a height adjustable sit/stand desk - positioned to take advantage of the spectacular views and a nice table for snacking or games with ample work surface and comfortable chairs to make a worker friendly table for laptops. The two private patios each have a table and comfortable chairs making great spots to work or relax -- with a view.

DINING / COOKING - Our guest suite has a new modern kitchenette - microwave, ice cold beverage fridge, dishwasher, a coffeemaker (coffee, tea, and all the fixings), convection toaster oven, single burner cooktop, and various small appliances. There is also access to a a full size refrigerator. We provide a variety of mugs, glassware, wine tools, and utensils. If you like to barbecue- our guest suite includes a Weber (with propane tank) for working your grilling magic. There are also several restaurants within walking distance and Sprouts grocery is only one mile away. You would be hard-pressed to find a prettier view patio to enjoy dining on simple fare or take-out/delivery from any of the many wonderful eateries in our city.

ACCESSIBILITY - With a no-step entrance — from parking to door— all on one floor, and a step-in shower — our place is great for those with limited mobility issues (not completely handicapped accessible inside). If entrance for wheelchair or walker is needed - please let us know in advance as we are most happy to move a car from garage for easy access. Please ask if you have other specific needs. This is an older home and is not unfortunately, completely handicapped accessible inside. We are happy to answer questions so you can determine if our place suits your needs.

SLEEP - Each bedroom features a high quality comfortable mattress and luxury linens on the queen size bed. The bedrooms each include a sound machine with optional ambient nightlight and many soothing sound options to enhance your sleep. Each bedroom has a spacious closet with luggage rack and ample room for hanging clothing. The front bedroom has a sliding door to cozy view patio. (We also have a new twin roll-away bed available on request.)

PETS - While we adore pets - our special guest suite is not set up for visiting animals and for several reasons is not pet friendly. If traveling with a service animal, we ask that you inquire before booking so we can determine if special arrangements can be made.

VIEWS- Comfortable and bright with a whole wall of windows, framing the beauty of Arizona’s timeless blue skies and cactus splendor (Saguaro, Organ Pipe, Prickly Pear, etc. ) as well as a backdrop of the Phoenix city-scape. Gaze out at one of our giant Saguaro cactus and watch up close as Arizona Cactus Wren fly in and out of their cozy (and prickly) cactus home. Note: many of the view pictures we are featuring were taken by our guests.

WILDLIFE - Keep an an eye out - and you might just get treated with spotting the occasional visiting coyote, raccoon, roadrunner, or other desert wildlife roaming past.

If you are seeking a refuge where you can relax or work, enjoy the stunning beauty of nature in a spacious and modern, private, and comfortable clean setting, in a great location central to all that Phoenix has to offer ... we think you will love our unique Heart of Phoenix Hillside Retreat!

The Views!
We had a lovely stay at this property. The views are better than the photos. Great mid-century decor. Spotlessly clean. Check-in was a breeze and hosts were very responsive to any questions. Only regret was that I didn’t have more time to spend on the beautiful patio looking at mature cacti. Highly recommend this property!

Weekend Getaway
We stayed at Nancy and Lon’s place for a long weekend with family. They were wonderful hosts, making us feel welcome and answering all of our questions very kindly and promptly. Their home is absolutely beautiful with stunning views of the city and mountains and lovely inside and outside sitting areas to take it all in. Their home is within walking distance of hiking areas, restaurants, shopping and only a short drive to other activities and the airport! We loved our time there and definitely plan on returning!!

Best Host EVER at ViewPointe
I have rented over 30 VRBO's and Nancy is the best hostess I have ever dealt with! She was readily available to answer questions and offer suggestions of things to do in the area. The views from ALL the windows were gorgeous as you can see from the pictures on the listing. Beds and bedding were high quality, mattresses on the softer side. Noise machines included in both bedrooms! Plenty of towels/sheets/blankets. The weather was rainy and cold for our stay so we utilized the cozy throw blankets she had draped over the couch and chairs. Kitchen is bare minimum but very functional. Thankfully there is a dishwasher b/c we had to do dishes every day. We made breakfast and dinner every day. There is a beverage fridge in the unit and then a full size fridge/freezer in the entryway that we could use as well. Washer/dryer is shared with the owners, who live upstairs. But we had plenty of privacy, it really was like having our own place. The driveway is steep, but like suggested, slow and easy gets you there :-) The unit is INSIDE the Hilton Squaw Peak resort complex, but it is NOT part of it. So you have to purchase a day pass if you want to utilize any of the facilities. Very quiet neighborhood, away from the bustle of downtown Phoenix, airport and Scottsdale, yet only 10-15 minutes from either. Access to highways were easy. It's a great central location (within a couple miles) for multiple trailheads (Dreamy Draw, Pietsewa Peak, Camelback). Lots of restaurants around.

Five Stars Are Not Enough
I’d give six stars if I could! Spectacular location, spotless apartment, so many thoughtful little touches, with friendly hosts who cheerfully welcomed our family (including an infant) and accommodated our special requests. They even arranged a spectacular Arizona sunset to welcome us on our first night.😊 We hope to return!

Ideal in all respects; quintessential Phoenix.
The house fit our getaway needs perfectly with the right location, level of comfort, furnishings, and of course, superb hosts, Nancy and Lon. Thank you! Add the exceptional views and the result was a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. During our visit, we gained a better understanding of what draws people to the greater Phoenix/Scottsdale area. Friendly and interesting people everywhere with an abundance of excellent restaurants, shops and bars (one neighborhood bar in particular, just ask Nancy). We hope to stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Nancy Licht

Host profile image
We are two CPA's who have lived in the Valley of the Sun for over thirty years. We love to meet new people and we love to share the wonderful panoramic views from the many vantage points on our property. Our success is reflected in our 5 star reviews and in the many returning guests we have the pleasure of hosting. We enjoy entertaining (yes, Southern hospitality reigns here), hiking, biking and pickleball and we are in a great location for all! Finally, we love people so we know you’ll be comfortable with us as your hosts (but we’ll give you all the privacy you want).

Why they chose this property

Right in the heart of Phoenix - so it’s convenient to most anything you want to see or do. Though in the middle of the city, the ViewPointe is on a sizable lot with generous spacing between the home and our neighbors - so it’s an idyllic getaway. Quite simply - we have some of the most amazing views in all of central Phoenix! We love that our property is in a resort community where it is comfortable to walk about without the noise and bother of city traffic. You would be hard pressed to find a more fitting sanctuary to experience Arizona.

What makes this property unique

Our views of Piestewa Peak Mountain are simple stunning. A central Phoenix property with a spacious lot and a wide expanse separating us from our neighbors, the ViewPointe is a rare retreat showcasing the beauty of Arizona. Bright and roomy with views from every room and two private patios, guests can enjoy every minute with a backdrop of nature. It’s a nature lovers paradise! The Hilton resort setting offers a shady/ walkable community with restaurants, bars, a spa, and conference settings within yards of our home.
