- Fans of Western charm, stargazing, and fireside evenings under wide open skies

- Guests who enjoy hands-on fun like the roping dummy, cowboy tub, and backyard games

- Outdoor lovers excited about hiking, horseback riding, golf, and nearby trails

- Traveling with a dog and looking for a pet-friendly home (with fee)



This home may not be the best fit if you’re:

- Expecting a luxury resort or hotel-style experience

- Uncomfortable with a desert environment, including wildlife sounds and dusty surroundings

- Looking for a city-centered stay with walkable nightlife or shopping

- Planning parties or large events (this is a peaceful neighborhood)

- Wanting a highly polished, urban-modern aesthetic over laid-back Western style



Guest Access:

Guests have access to the entire home (except for the locked owner’s closet) and driveway parking for 3 cars.



The Neighborhood:

It’s a serene neighborhood near lots of outdoor activities like ATV, mountain biking, hiking, horseback riding, and hot-air balloon rides. Near Cave Creek National Park, Sonoran Preserve, and many top-notch golf courses. Unique shopping and restaurant experiences in Cave Creek are just a short walk from the house, and there are weekly bull riding and line dancing activities at Buffalo Chip Saloon. You’ll receive a DIGITAL GUIDEBOOK with more info and recommendations once booked!

House was very clean and exactly like pictures. Everything was well stocked in the kitchen. The location was perfect for walking to downtown Cave Creek and to hiking trails. Internet was strong which was very helpful when we had to work. Check in was easy and plenty of parking available. One of the best places we have stayed.
