2025 Scottsdale Golf Trip
Overall, the house was nice. Perfect location for our golfing group. The biggest complaint is that the thermostat upstairs defaulted to a high setting during the night and the upstairs temperature would rise to 84 degrees. We woke up every night around 2:00 am sweating. I called the management group for it to be reset or asked for the code so that I could reset the thermostat. The problem was never corrected. Also, there was no ironing board. I called the management group and they said the house included an iron but not an ironing board. Also, there were no garage door opener. When entering the house, someone would have to get out of the car, go through the front door, go through the house, and open the garage door from the inside. When leaving the house, we would have to pull out of the garage, someone would have to remain in the garage, push the garage door button, and then run out of the garage. I also notified the management group and nothing was done.

Beautiful home and great management
The home is wonderful and well kept. With the living room being at the center of the home, the layout is great for large groups looking to enjoy an open floorplan and lots of natural light. We had full access to the 3 car garage which was useful . The driveway is narrow and not too practical for anyone traveling with trailers. The neighborhood is peaceful with the exception of one easily irritated neighbor behind the propert. The management team is professional and easy to work with. They are very responsive and thorough. Overall it was a pleasant experience.cargarage which was extremely
