About this property

Quiet Luxury: Heated Pool, Putting/Chipping Greens, Kiva, & Views! Golf close!

(A minimum of 3 nights with 2 days between stays please.)

This 4,000 sq. ft. custom-built luxury home is located on 1.25 acres of land in the foothills of the Tonto National Forest. The quiet setting has breathtaking views and perfect for incredible biking, hiking and horseback riding. Enjoy a peaceful, private setting and still maintain a close proximity to shopping, dining and some of the best golf the area has to offer. The area offers Instacart, Uber & UberEats, GrubHub and Lyft. Many businesses offer delivery options as well!

Enter the property through the professionally landscaped courtyard past the trickling water fountain, blooming cacti and mountain views. The large cedar door opens into the Foyer and Formal Dining Room with dramatic 30-foot ceilings and large iron chandeliers. While this space is expansive it is still cozy with oak furnishings and plantation shutters. As you work your way through the home, the Den is furnished with a large club chair and ottoman to cozy up with a good book or keep up on world affairs behind the large, rustic desk with wireless WiFi and printer/scanner/copier. Walk on into the Great Room with high ceilings adorned with rustic white cedar beams. You’ll find this room is calling for you to sit down in front of the gas fireplace and watch a good movie. The Great Room flows right into the Kitchen Dining Area with enough room to seat eight people! Cooking for a big group is effortless in the large kitchen equipped with all stainless steel appliances, high-end stainless cookware, forged knives, cooking utensils, Kitchen Aide free-standing mixer, several slow cookers and place settings for 16. Plus so much more!

There is a space for everyone to socialize or get away from it all! Head up the open staircase with wrought iron railings to the Bar Loft/Man Cave. This is a great space to enjoy a sports event or movie on the 65-inch flat screen SmartTV while making drinks behind the granite wet bar with stainless steel mini-frig. Get in a quick workout on the Smooth Fitness elliptical. Right off this room you can enjoy the balcony in the morning with the cup of coffee watching the sun rise over Four Peaks or in the evening sipping on a glass of wine watching the sun set behind Pinnacle Peak. This balcony also looks over the pool and putting/chipping greens. It’s a spectacular site at night with the professional landscape lighting.

After a long day retire in the Luxury Master Suite looking out the large windows enjoying the mountain views or out on the adjacent balcony with private access. The en suite features a spa-like experience with His & Hers vanities, Jacuzzi tub, large walk-in multi-head shower and a huge custom closet. Guests will also enjoy the other three fully furnished bedrooms with queen beds and baths with all the linens provided. Two of three bedrooms have shared access to another balcony with mountain views.

The large outdoor living space spans the whole back of the home with comfortable lounge seating and dining while enjoying the pool, waterfall or waiting for your meal to cook on the gas BBQ grill. Don’t worry if it is a little warm because the multiple ceiling fans help cool the area! On cool nights, gather around the gas kiva/fireplace to keep warm. Didn’t have time during the day to practice on the putting or chipping greens? Not to worry as there is a spot light so you can practice anytime! Within this walled area, you can enjoy the Arizona mountain views and weather all year round with secure privacy.

The property is protected with an “unmonitored” (meaning no company on call) security system. This system is used to protect the property from potential break-ins and theft. There are 2 cameras located at the top of the home, front and back, one monitoring the front door, one monitoring the back patio doors and one in the garage to monitor the garage doors.

Long-term stays are also available.

Luxury in the Desert
LuAnn's house is a great place to stay in the North Scottsdale area. Large house with great amenities. All well stocked with up to date features. Great areas to chill. Large living and dining rooms and a great den upstairs with bar. TV'S everywhere. Access to 2 car garage. The other is filled with some other great adult toys which aren't available. Great outdoor areas. The pool was heated more than adequately but the weather didn't give us much chance to use it. The fourth bathroom is on the main floor and since we chose this property mainly because we wanted 4 bdrms and 4 bathrooms this was a minor issue. Access to this property is also a mile along a dirt road amd 30 minutes from anything. For us playing golf at Troon and the Boulders mainly, that was not an issue. Overall, a great place for golfers or a large family.

Fabulous Home!
My husband and I spent 10 days at this wonderful home. Everything about this property was top notch: comfortable bed, great linens, clean, incredible kitchen, warm pool, fabulous yard (we spent time each day putting and chipping) and very helpful and responsive owners. We chose the location in Rio Verde because it was close to the Four Seasons where we attended the wedding of a close friend’s son during the time that we were there. We were thrilled to discover that the area is jam-packed with incredible places to hike and wonderful golf courses, while maintaining a distinctly non-urban, natural desert feel. We will be back!

Not my expectations
First just wanted to say LuAnn tried but price value was poor. She even credit me back and thought it was more than should have been. Start with pool not heating,LuAnn tried but 2days later was good. Inside lots of stains carpet cob webs as they said no one could come clean ok, but full garbage can , mouse dead on porch by back door, stain on carpet everywhere, dust had to clean everything including bending. Curtains dishevaled. Came front door leaves and dented everywhere. Would have expected bett. Even blankets where piled in closet and had to wash as weren't sure if they had been used. All I can say as roof over our head that's about it. REALLY DISAPPOINTED as was special occasion and quite honestly was embarrassed with accomodations.

What a beautiful home. It was far out enough from the city for the peace and quiet but close enough to enjoy anything in town as well. I highly recommend this home to anyone. LuAnn was amazing in taking care of all our needs, she got back with us super fast. The pool was amazing and the back yard has so much to do. You need to stay here if you are in Scottsdale! We will be back.

A Wonderful Place to Stay in a Difficult Circumstance
Our family had to be in town for a funeral service and were looking at a place to be near our extended family and the church. We have vacationed together regularly for the last 15 years and, while this wasn't a vacation, this property actually offered more than most of the other places we've ever stayed at. The property promises to be as turnkey as possible and they did not overstate this. It was not only beautiful and well-maintained but well appointed to get us a head start on our time in town. The pool was a welcome relief and we very much appreciated the attention to detail to support our stay. The owner even stocked us with extra Kleenex (much needed unfortunately) and it was greatly appreciated. We would definitely stay again and our extended family members are actually going to look at it as a future option for another reunion.

Great Home for Rest, Relaxation and family
We were looking for a modern home in a quiet area with privacy (space between houses), a pool, and could accommodate up to 10 people. This house checked all the boxes. The owners were very accommodating and any questions we had, they were quick to answer. We didn’t encounter any problems during our stay. Overall this is a fantastic house for those looking for a relaxing home in a quiet neighborhood to relax with family/friends

Quick Girls Trip
The house is beautiful and LuAnn is a great host. We enjoyed all aspects of the property, from the outdoor living spaces to the indoor spaces. The rooms were beautifully furnished. I think what would make experience from great to good would be toiletries in the bathrooms such as body soap. Other than that minor thing, we had a great time and would definitely come back again.

This house is gorgeous and the views are amazing. LuAnn was amazing and so nice especially since I had endless questions. She never seemed frustrated to answer them. The house is amazing, you pretty much never have to leave it, if you did not want to. From the rooms, to the views, and the pool it was a great stay for a vacation that was much needed.

Great Property; cleanliness an issue
Great property; inviting, great vistas and room to relax. Disappointed with the overall cleanliness of the place. We had to wipe down all surfaces once we checked in to get the grime off everything. The check-out procedures reminded us to make sure we scraped the grill, but the grill was greasy when we checked in and our food caught on fire from the grease on the grill plate. Filthy. Even though LuAnn told us they were waiting for parts for the pool heater, the fact that we couldn't use it was really disappointing and by the time we heard, it was too late to rent something in that area that was comparable. She refunded the heating fee they charged us for this inconvenience but also charged us a heating fee which makes us break-even for not being able to use the pool. Really confusing and disappointing. Even when we wanted to use the pool, the fool surface was covered with leaves/seeds, even though we could see the skimmer. It simply wasn't working properly. The many surveillance cameras on the property were really disconcerting and put us all on edge,

Excellent Home
The space is great, wifi and direct tv made it nice for some background noise. Pool heater was broke, parts on back order, that was really sad as the water temp was really cold and put a huge damper on things. We were notified about a week prior to our arrival, so there were no other properties in the area since it was spring break. If we had to do it all over again, probably would have went out of the area and found a place that had a heater that worked

Great place to get away
The property is fantastic to get away from the crowds. While it is a bit off the beaten path, that was what we were looking for and with all that is available in the area such as hiking, golf and other recreation, you don't need to be closer to town. Grocery is about 15-20 minutes away so if you don't want to venture out once you arrive, stop before arriving. The pool is great and heated. Be mindful that at night during this time of year it was cold out so you will need to heat it up in the morning. The house was well stocked with spices and other things you may need for cooking and more than enough cooking utensils. Grill was great and worked well for steaks and burgers. There is a putting/chipping green that is a lot of fun and the kids enjoyed it. The only issue we encountered was a problem with Direct TV that didn't work due to a dish issue that was out of the owners control but I called the owners and that was handled as expeditiously as possible. We really enjoyed the property.

Great stay and great property owners! We enjoyed the amazing pool and needed the relaxation! The house had way more space than the 6 of us could possibly use and I loved the open concept of kitchen/dining/living room, which flowed right outside to the eating/lounging/pool area. We kept it simple and had groceries delivered by Safeway a couple of times. Much easier than driving in to go shopping. Thank you for sharing your house!

Beautiful home with plenty of room to spread out. Well stocked kitchen we used a lot.
Large charming home with a nice pool and a great place to relax. We ate most of our meals at home and the kitchen had plenty of pots/pans/utensils for our needs. It's a bit off the beaten path, not near restaurants or services but peaceful and quiet. There was plenty of room for the 6 of us to spread out.

About the host

Hosted by LuAnn

Host profile image
We are from the Midwest and in the agriculture industry.

Why they chose this property

We were visiting friends and family in the area and fell in love! Close enough to things to do/places to go but still quiet and rural for us.

What makes this property unique

While groceries and night life are not just a 5 minute drive, the peace and quiet at night viewing the stars and sunrises in the morning over Four Peaks while drinking our coffee are worth it! Hiking and UTV trails are so close and abundant!
