We have designed this vacation home experience to be unforgettable for you. We are avid travelers ourselves, so we know firsthand the central importance that a beautiful and unique home can play in making your vacation a resounding success.

This high-end desert retreat, situated on a one-acre lot in the quiet drama of the outdoors, provides access to the best Scottsdale has to offer. The three-tiered pavered back patio with view fence grants you unhindered views of majestic Four Peaks as it broods over the Superstition Mountains. You may very well observe wildlife from the patio, or witness the pitchy howls of roving coyotes (don't worry, you're all safe, including your pets)!

The home experiences very little traffic noise, yet it is close to Dynamite Rd. Beautiful mature landscaping, built-in BBQ, a fire pit for fun evenings, a shaded patio, and comfortable furniture means you can enjoy a meal in the beautiful outdoors, day or night. Like we said - unforgettable!

The private courtyard features a fountain and desert garden with furniture: perfect for sunbathing (with or without tan lines!), reading and relaxing.

GRAND PLAYER PIANO with a large range of discs, from classical to show tunes, jazz to the Beatles!

Full gourmet kitchen (650 square feet), office (4th bedroom with blow-up bed if needed), spacious living room with bar, plush master quarters, and very relaxing bedrooms make for a delightful living experience. All mattresses are extremely comfortable. Hi-speed internet access, games, books, movie selection, HDTVs with Blue Ray means you'll enjoy your stay.

Rest assured that for this home, the reality is -better- than the pictures. We've received this comment a number of times from guests, though the photos were professionally done.

We are so proud of all there is to see and do in our part of Scottsdale! Make sure to zoom out on the map when you reach the "Location" portion of this listing to see some of the nearby attractions. The Tom's Thumb, Pemberton, Fraesfield or Pinnacle Peak hikes are all within ten minutes of the home and offer the best walking experiences that Scottsdale has to offer. There are golf courses nearby such as Troon North, as well as horseback riding (ask about free golf brochure).

Optional Amenity: Village Health Club Access (extra fee varies with length of stay and number of occupants). 17 minutes from the home (but nearby to other attractions and restaurants), gain access to Arizona's most exclusive fitness club: the Village at DC Ranch. This magnificent 81,000 square foot club provides all the fitness and sports amenities you desire, including two temperature controlled pools. The club also features a full-service day spa and hair salon, a separate wing for children which includes a junior basketball court, kid's club, nursery and outdoor play area, mountain biking featuring organized rides throughout the area, a member's business office and private meeting rooms, award-winning cafe and pro shop boutique. This club is one of the best things going in all of Scottsdale! We definitely recommend it, particularly if pool access is important.

So there you have it: create a get-away for you and your loved ones that is simply intense. If you have any questions about our home or the area, drop us a line or call us. Don't be a stranger - we're here to help! We're glad to serve you any way we can, and we hope that you choose our home for your stay in Scottsdale.

Seeking serenity? Look no further.
The home with the blue door is comfortable and nicely decorated (even a player piano), but the real appeal, for us, was the location. It is out in horse country, east of north Scottsdale, away from city traffic, on winding red dirt roads and close enough to the trails on the McDowell Preserve to be mountain bike heaven. This is a nice home base if your interest is logging miles on your bikes and digging starry skies and sunrise views over Four Peaks. Owners were responsive and helpful.

This deserves 10 stars!
We escaped the east coast cold and chose our accommodations very carefully since we were staying a month. After experiencing this home, yard and view we wish we had planned to stay at least two months. Adam and Lindsay were amazing hosts. The home was immaculate, decor beautiful and relaxing, and the house had everything we needed. Bed was so comfortable! We love mountain biking, hiking and consider ourselves foodies so this area was perfect. We loved watching the birds and gambel’s quails. We’ve never seen sunrises and sunsets that spectacular. All in all, we can’t wait to return to this property next winter and will definitely stay longer. Thank you again Adam and Lindsay!

Quaint, quiet, clean... the compliments are endless. This was one of the best places we've stayed!
You feel like you're in your own private oasis in the desert. Peaceful, relaxing, zen-like atmosphere surrounds you. The house and hosts are fabulous. Don't miss this one!

About the host

Hosted by Adam or Lindsay Zingg

Host profile image
We greatly enjoy the beauty of Arizona, and have many family members in the nearby town of Fountain Hills that also draws us to the area. We have found ourselves moving around quite a bit for work and further education during the last several years, yet have been able to spend a good bit of time in Scottsdale as well. We consider ourselves food and wine enthusiasts, excited to try cuisine from most any country. We also enjoy the outdoors, and manage to do a lot of camping in Arizona's mountains, or nearby California, Utah or Colorado.

Why they chose this property

Our property is very unique in that it is extraordinarily peaceful, with its mountain views, and large expanses of open land, all within 15-25 minutes off all that North Scottsdale, Carefree, and CaveCreek have to offer. We are the original owners and fell in love with the luxury of the home, combined with its practicality and spaciousness.

What makes this property unique

While looking for our home in Arizona, we were primarily attracted to the peacefulness and quiet drama of the desert. We have enjoyeded many nights of grilling surf and turf, turning on our player piano, and sitting outdoors with a glass of wine under the bright stars. Our area of the desert is at a slightly higher elevation than the rest of the valley, and so we also loved that the temperatures can be up to 10 degrees cooler than most of Phoenix! In the summer, this means cooler nights, where you can still enjoy the outdoors.
