See my reviews for how happy my visitors have been with our home! The whole house (all 6 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms) are available to my guests. I frequently chat by text with all my guests and responses come fastest via text message with any questions guests have.
My neighborhood is very quiet and friendly. Many kids on bikes and friendly neighbors can be found right outside the front door. However, please note that my neighborhood is NOT Scottsdale. My neighborhood is diverse and representative of Phoenix. If this is something you are not comfortable with, I encourage you to book a home in a suburb where the neighborhood is more homogenous.
There are three beautiful public golf courses near my house with prices as low as $18 per 9 holes. You can book these online in advance using the City of Phoenix website. Also, if you like to bike, I live right on the bike path, which connects all of central Phoenix. You can enjoy biking all the way downtown without touching a busy street.
I recommend renting a car in Phoenix as the city is very spread out, and public transportation is not great. Generally, you can get a car for $25 a day if you rent in advance and take the car from the PHX airport.
House Rules
1. No Parties. Please note that my home is for travelers from out of town ONLY and not a place for gatherings of people that live in the Phoenix area. Maximum of 4 cars at the property. I have had to ask guests to leave in the past for violating this policy.
2. Outside noise after 10pm should be kept to a minimum. My neighbor's bedroom window is across the fence from the hot tub and she has been known to complain for excessive noise at night.
3. Pool heating is absolutely FREE as long as you book 7 days or more before the check-in date.
4. There is a security system in the house monitored by Link Interactive that provides guests with security for their possessions when they are away from the home.
5. Please leave the house in as nice a shape as you find it! We are proud of our five stars ratings for cleanliness, charm, and hospitality. I expect I can also rate your group with five stars as a respectful and clean guest.
