We really enjoyed this property. The owners are wonderful people, and our dogs enjoyed their new dog friends.
The property is located off the beaten path yet close enough to all there is to see in Scottsdale/Phoenix area. Lots of room and beautiful surroundings!
This is a casita sharing beautify courtyard with pool area with the hosts in main house. We still had plenty of privacy and they were very friendly. We enjoyed being in the countryside in Arizona horse country with fabulous mountain views and starry sky at night!
We enjoyed our stay at this casita. The location was ideal, far removed from the Phoenix/Scottsdale ratrace. The view of the Four Peaks was beautiful and the quiet and solitude was very relaxing. The casita is close to a number of excellent hiking trails in the Sonoran Desert Preserve and if you like mountain biking, horse back riding., or golfing you're in the right place.
Landlords respected our privacy, but were always available to answer any questions we might have. The scenery was spectacular, and our Great Grandson was thrilled by the horses.
Simply stated the casita was wonderful! Away from the crowds of Scottsdale & Phoenix but close enough for easy access if you want to go there. Sunrise and sunsets were amazing. The owners gave us our privacy but were immediately available to answer any questions. We made a stop at the grocery on the way in and cooked most of our meals in the kitchen, which was adequately supplied with pots, pans, dishes, utensils, etc. I have no doubt we will be back at some time in the future.

Arizona Country side
May be the first time for these folks-seemed a little casual, dogs used the front lawn for pooping, the road sign as well as the road itself to the location was a challenge even for country folks like us. The semi existent street sign(for this property)is illegible, especially at night (we thought we had the wrong dirt road.) On the other hand, the location is wonderful as is the view.
The view of Four Peaks Mountain is so beautiful. We fell in love with the whole area. Very remote and away from traffic. The only downside was that it took about 30 minutes or more to get to anything in Scottsdale or Fountain Hills. The pool was too cool to use, but we enjoyed the hot tub. The lawn and area around the casita is well taken care of and manicured. The owners are a friendly couple who responded quickly to any issues we may have had, and even patched a tire that a screw had run though. They offered great ideas of activities to do in the area. The Sonoran Desert Preserve is nearby and has lots of trails with great views. Also, the McDowell Regional Park is nearby and both of these hiking areas are very well managed.
Casita wasn’t in very good shape. Pictures didn’t represent the condition of the property. There was no key issued so I couldn’t leave my personal items in the casita when I went into town. There was no soap provided in the shower. The condition of the pool and hot tub was in bad shape and didn’t offer privacy. The driveway resembled a junk yard with multiple out of commission vehicles. Overall it wasn’t the worst place I’ve ever stayed in, but it was the worst place I’ve stayed in for the money.
We loved it here. The best thing was the relaxed environment with a terrific view of 4 Peaks and the desert environment from the patio area. I cooked quite a bit and the kitchen accommodations were reasonbly good. There is a good coffee maker but it doesn't take pods. There were only two of us (can accommodate 5) but we utilized both beds which were quite comfortable. The main bed is elevated to the degree that it wasn't easy for my short, older and somewhat physically challenged wife to get into. But we managed fine. The hosts live on the property and were kind, respectful and very helpful. We are personable people and greatly enjoyed interacting with them. On one occasion the host went way beyond expectations to help me with a car rental issue.They have 5 dogs and it was a delight for us to interact with them daily as well. This added greatly to the enjoyment of our visit. The location is terrific for many, excellent hiking facilities which we took advantage of. We were also here for spring training games which aren't convenient, certainly, to this location but, still, it worked out reasonably well. Time slows down dramatically here which was a huge blessing for us. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. We rented this property only because, being late to rent and wanting 2 weeks, this was the only property available. We're so delighted how it turned out in the end.
Great place to stay for 3-4 people. Very quiet and beautiful location. Easy check in and great communication throughout our stay. The last 2-3 miles of drive are unpaved but still easy to navigate. This is a great casita and I will be back. Thanks!
Terrific. Amply room for 4 adults. Kitchen was wonderful to cook large meals. Access to patio, pool, fire place, BBQ, cornhole made for a terrific venue to host a 12 person birthday party. Beautiful mountain view. Steve had extra patio tables, chairs. Steve and his family were friendly and helpful.
Beautiful little guest house on a small ranch outside Phx/Rio Verde. Nice views of the Superstitious mtns. Great stars at night. Short section of gravel to get there but no big deal.
Owners are welcoming and very accommodating; Pool is great for all ages. We thoroughly enjoyed all 5 of their dogs, and our Great Grandson was thrilled when one of the owners took him to see the horses and their colts. Views are spectacular, and the peace and quiet are wonderful. We look forward to returning next year.
Had a wonderful 3 weeks at the casita! As described in the listing, the home is on rural roads which we appreciated being away from the traffic in other parts of Scottsdale. The home is close to many great hiking areas and has amazing views. Home owners were friendly and easy to work with.
Robin’s Rio Verde Foothills casita was just perfect
Steve and Robin’s Rio Verde Foothills casita was just perfect for our needs, as two semi-retired couples. It was quiet (2 miles from the paved main road), with great views and comfortable places to hang out, both inside and out. Not only were they welcoming and responsive to any needs, but their well-behaved dogs also made us feel right at home. We’ll miss those daily sunrise views and doggies. Other outside features that we enjoyed were the nice hot tub, gas fire ring, and gas grill.
Staying there took a bit of planning, since grocery stores were 20-30 minutes away, but there were some really nice hiking trails nearby in McDowell Sonoran Reserve (Tom’s Thumb and Granite Mountain were our favorites).
The casita is in a great location - very remote and close to lots of hiking trails. The primary negative is that it is on a 2.2 mile dirt road! Very annoying! Nevertheless, Steve and Robin were wonderful hosts. Their four dogs were a delight. And we enjoyed our stay tremendously!
We selected this property to be near hiking areas yet sought quiet private location not a hotel experience. Turned out everything was wonderful, excellent hosts, simple process for in and out, and the casita was roomy, clean and comfortable.
