Expensive but well worth it.

Everything was comfortable and well taken care of. The only two things that I would like to mention, the two steps from the dining room to the living room or relatively hard to see, especially at night. I have put a large bag on the step just to visually remind me of the steps. One other small item is the toilet bowls are very low. Other than those items, everything else was very good. Thanks for asking.

Exceptional Home!

We have stayed at many VRBO homes and this property is exceptional. The home is very clean and well stocked with everyday items. The layout of the home feels large with 2 master bedrooms that have extremely comfortable beds, large shower and large closets. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, but located close enough to anything you want to do with a short walk or drive. The property owners are fantastic and really care about the guest experience. We wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Scottsdale!

Best of Scottsdale

This property was perfect in every way for our trip to Scottsdale. It is spacious and relaxing and has a wonderful location. We used the community fitness center and pool, and loved the ease of walking and biking on the greenway paths. The home itself is an oasis of relaxation , especially the patio which we utilized every day of our stay. The owners are responsive and kind, and the home had everything we needed.

Beautiful house

The 4 of us had a wonderful stay in this very comfortable home. The home is very clean and well equipped. The only thing I would mention is beware of the step into the living room and there are no handicapped bars in the shower and by toilets — would be appreciated. We had a wonderful stay and loved the outdoor patio area.

Lovely stay in McCormack Ranch

The property was comfortable and well appointed. It was perfect for our family of four. The bedrooms and living area were good sized and we enjoyed the heated back patio. The kitchen was well stocked. Only constructive suggestion would be to get a new coffee maker as we weren’t able to make the pods work. Also, unfortunately, the community hot tub and pool broke down during our stay (no heating) and we weren’t able to fully enjoy that amenity. Not the owners’ fault but disappointing nonetheless. Overall, though, it was a very nice stay in a convenient location, and very comfortable for a family of four.

Lovely McCormick Ranch rental

We had a fabulous stay at this McCormick Ranch two bedroom rental. The location is terrific, a few minutes from the green belt and walking path that goes for miles. The home is beautifully updates with all the comforts of home. The patio is wonderful with several different seating areas, beautiful plantings, lighting, a fire table and heater. The host was very responsive. We would definitely rent again.

A Great 3 Week Stay!

This patio home is in a McCormick Ranck development, centrally and conveniently located in Scottsdale. The property has a beautiful big outside patio and the area is very quiet. Also a very nice community pool and fitness center that's never busy. The pool has a great view over the golf course and the mountains to the West. The owners live nearby and are very responsive to any questions or issues that might arise. The home was well stocked and the check in and check out process couldn't have been easier.

Wonderful property

Carolyn and Aric’s home was perfect for our 9-day stay in Scottsdale. The location is central to everything - restaurants, shops, golf, walking paths. We had warm temps a few days and were able to enjoy one of the pools as well. The home itself has all the amenities so it’s like home away from home. The backyard is amazing and includes multiple seating areas with a fire table and outdoor heater which was great to have on the cooler evenings. The check in/check out process was so easy and the we felt welcomed and comfortable! We highly recommend booking and staying at this property!

Great stay!

The patio home was perfect. Check in and communication with Carolyn and Aric was easy and immediate. The location next to the bike path was so fun. The home comes with 4 bikes, so we used them often. Even biked into Old Town for lunch. We really loved the central location - easy drive to Old Town and North for hiking and golf. The home was immaculate and up to date. Both mattresses and bedding were very comfortable. Very clean with new furniture, accessories and kitchen items. The patio is amazing with lots of seating, easy to use fire pit and a heater. We would definitely stay again.

Very lovely stay at the Santa Fe property, plenty of sunshine, golf, biking.

We had a very lovely stay at the Santa Fe property: the house is gorgeous, clean, nicely appointed and conveniently located near biking and walking trails, golf courses, restaurants and one of the most desirable areas of Scottsdale. The property comes also with access to a spa and swimming pool. The patio is very enjoyable, private and quiet: we had breakfast and a few meals in the privacy of the backyard. The only minor issue is that we were not able to operate the patio gas fire pit, the hot tub and other amenities but it was not a big deal as we had plenty of other enjoyable activities. We exchanged text messages with the owners who seem very nice; they left a bottle of wine and water for us upon our arrival, which was a very nice touch.

The location in this neighborhood was excellent. Easy access to restaurants and walking/biking paths

Our experience was excellent and we would highly recommend this for anyone looking for a get away. Pedal bikes are included for use and this is a wonderful perk. The paths (easily accessible from the front door) allow you to walk/bike/run in complete safety and you’re never concerned about the busy traffic.

One of the best in Santa Fe at Mcormick Ranch!

We regularly visit friends in Scottsdale and always stay in Santa Fe homes so we have seen a few different designs and layouts. This was by far, one of the nicest and well appointed of any we have stayed. Kitchen is beautiful and well appointed, living room very comfortable and the bedrooms spacious with comfortable beds. (I cannot say that about all past Santa Fe units!) And you cannot beat the location, so close to shops, restaurants and activities! Carolyn was the perfect hostess and made us feel very welcome! We will be watching her calendar for open dates and be back!

Why they chose this property

Santa Fe I and 11 are well established subdivisions that were built in the highly desirable McCormick Ranch development in Scottsdale in approximately 1978. It has an excellent HOA that meticiously maintains the properties and grounds at all times. Continuous maitenace schedules refresh the paint, landscaping and streets on an ongoing basis. Most owners are longtime residents that cherish the area and appreciate a quiet and safe environment. Many enjoy the multitude of immediate amenities such as the greenbelt, walking and biking paths, and the very close proximity of golf restrauants, shopping, sports and entertainment.

We believe in the property and the area so much, we fully intend on keeping the house for years to come.

What makes this property unique

The property speaks for itself. it is a very well done renovation in an excellent stable location that is private yet open, light and brite, and exhudes an air of comfortable sophistication.

The spaces in the house and outdoors are are confortable and quiet. The back patio and yard are an absolute oasis, perfect for reading or relaxing. The materials, fit and finish are on par with a custom home (as that is what we build). Carolyn's degree and experience in interior design is evident in the furnishings, accessories, and necessities that try and keep in mind your needs. We live 10 minutes away, and are available during your stay to address needs that may arise in a timely and efficient manner.

The location and area are the crowning touch! Scottsdale in mid winter offers an almost immeasurable variety of events, shopping, restrauants, sports and golf in an upscale yet laid back environment. The city is tailored to the needs of the casual and business traveler.
