Property details

Enjoy five acres of private paradise at this incredible sun-kissed oasis. Surrounded by stunning mountain views, your retreat boasts amazing outdoor space with a private pool, attached pool spa, large sundeck, and an outdoor half bath for convenience. Relax and unwind poolside, watching birds nest, and visit the expansive succulent garden featuring dozens of giant saguaros, ocotillos, and other desert flora. Gather around the firepit and watch the sunset cast spectacular colors across the desert sky. Or grill out and dine alfresco on the covered patio. You'll love being located near Sky Valley Resort, the natural hot mineral water pools and spas offer a rejuvenating experience.

We had a very large group for the Stagecoach Music festival this year and this house was exactly what we needed. the Casita was perfect for the girls, the bunkhouse and game room was perfect for the boys. We had a blast with all of the activities. We only wish we had more time!
