Thunderbird Desert Estates House | Desert Oasis- North Scottsdale Home - Massive Backyard Gardens/Patios/Pool

4 Bedroom House in Thunderbird Desert Estates, Scottsdale

We have 4 guest bedrooms, and each bedroom sleeps two (we have recently purchased new top-of-the-line mattresses for all our guest rooms - you won't be disappointed).
This single family home could not be better located for easy access to the best that Scottsdale has to offer. It is situated between two major freeways for quick travel to the entire Phoenix and Scottsdale metropolitan areas, and it is only 2 miles from the Scottsdale Airport/Airpark area where you will find all the upscale and luxury shops and restaurants within almost walking distance. The Quarter and Kierland business and shopping centers are less than 2 miles from this home. The Westin is one mile and walking distance for those attending conferences there. Mayo Hospital and Musical Instrument Museum are each 4 miles and an easy drive.
Almost an acre is populated by many fruit trees and every citrus variety imaginable (pomegranate, apple, fig, lime, lemon, kumquat, orange, tangerine, tangelo, grapefruit), and you are encouraged to sample them all! We are passionate gardeners, so please enjoy and share the produce. See the many pictures of the gardens. Definitely use the far infrared sauna, which is set in a remote and private nook under the sumac tree!
You will find a twin-size bed with regulation mattress as well as a beautiful and comfortable leather couch on one of the patios, and if you would like (during nice weather...or when there is an awesome thunderstorm!), you can even sleep out on the patio . At least choose to enjoy your meals on the patio at one of our rustic hand carved wooden tables. It is delightful. Bring a book to enjoy in the peace and quiet of the patio and gardens and listen to the birds sing. Enjoy the silence. It is magical.
Three of the four bedrooms have a television as well as the living room and the patio. Direct TV with its many channels is installed on all five TV's.
Entry into the home and all 4 bedrooms is without steps. There is one step down into the living room from the dining room and one step from the family room into the kitchen; however, it is possible to stay in this home without navigating any of the steps, so a wheelchair is easily managed.
The pool is huge and deep! At 35,000 gallons, it is 2-3 times larger than the customary home in-ground pool. Because of its size, it is possible to swim "laps" around the circumference without ever touching the sides.
Guest access
Please enjoy all we have to offer - our fresh produce when in season, our two seat far infrared sauna, our pool, our patios. The entire home and outside space will be offered to the guests. The only restricted area is the piano. We do not allow people to play the piano.
Other things to note:
This is a home, not a hotel, so please respect the antiques and other furnishings.
Lush garden spaces create a sophisticated "urban farm" feel, and the grounds are truly spectacular. Dogs, pets, and children are permitted to allow for a whole-family experience. Please note that there is a swimming pool and that you are responsible to carefully supervise your children. The pool is gated from the outside world but not from the home. There are locks on all doors leading to the patios and backyard. Please use them to control access from young children.
Smoking is allowed outside on our three patios only and never inside the house.
We have recently begun allowing events, such as small and respectful family gatherings and dinners, birthday parties, and intimate gatherings of all kinds, as long as you clear it with us ahead of time. We understand that it is an amazing experience to share the romantic ambiance on the patios at night, but please be subdued and responsible and do not exceed the number of guests nor the type of event that we both agreed upon at the time of booking. Parties will be shut down and guests asked to leave without reimbursement for remaining days if your event is not as we agreed upon and authorized at the booking step.
Outdoor security cameras are located in the pool and patio area as well as at the front and back doors. This is for the protection of both guests and hosts.
Please be aware that our pool maintenance person comes every Thursday between 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM. He will have access to the pool from the side gate of the house and leave after he is done. No need for our guests to do anything. Please never take the pool cleaning equipment out of the pool, as it will easily be damaged.
Occasionally, you may encounter our yard maintenance man. It takes a lot of time and effort to maintain this yard, so please be understanding if he is working in the back. He is very non-obtrusive and quiet, and you probably won't even know he is there.
**Please read through our entire listing before you book with us to make sure we will be a good fit.

Summary: I had to go to Phoenix for surgery, so the Desert Oasis was truly that for my family. From the fruit trees in the back yard, the beautiful inside and how wonderful the hosts are; everything was perfect for my healing journey. Anytime I needed anything, they were patient and so wonderful with us. A zero gravity chair and an instant pot were no problem! Great people! Great experience!

Summary: The perfect house to host my parents in Arizona! It had everything we needed to cook meals, plenty of room for us to spread out, and I can't say enough about the backyard. The pool is incredible, the sauna is fun, but my dog loved roaming and exploring the fruit trees for hours. I will definitely stay again!!!

Summary: I have stayed at many VRBO properties but this rates up there as one of the best. The hosts were extremely helpful, fast to respond, and the property itself was exactly as described and portrayed in the pictures.

Summary: Plenty of space for our group of 8. The outdoor area was pretty special and very relaxing. The fruit trees, outdoor tvs, and sauna were a bonus. Would definitely stay again!

Summary: This property is definitely one of a kind and not to be missed! Inside and out, it is impeccably clean and well stocked. We had our coffee outside every morning, used the sauna every day and then again in the evening had Happy Hour outside selecting a different seating area each time! The day we arrived, it was just after dark and someone had lit the outdoors like a magical wonderland… Magnificent! Indoors is the same with seating areas absolutely everywhere, beautiful lighting and an incredible book collection. The cookbooks, novels and travel guides were amazing; we spent a good deal of time reading and relaxing. I could go on and on but you need to check this out yourself! This is a 10 STAR property we will return to! Many thanks to our great hosts Susan and David for sharing this extraordinary property!

Summary: The yard area in back makes this place an utter sanctuary, especially after a hard day at work. I've never seen anything like it and will definitely rent this place EVERY time I come down to Scottsdale to work or play!!

Summary: David & Susan have an incredible property. What a GEM of a spot! We loved the back patio, the garden which was plentiful of delicious fruit, and full of amazing succulents and various types of cacti'. Amazing! The rooms and interior were excellent as well. David & Susan were incredibly nice to offer us an early Check-In, when I detailed that we would be in the area earlier than normal. They tried their best leading up, and were able to come through. That was incredibly nice of them. In fact, they re-reached out to us to relay the good news, which tells us that the request was taken sincerely, rather than just a brush off as most people would do. I would stay at this property any time I am lucky to be in Scottsdale again, which I hope is in the very near future. A+++++ to David, Susan, and this wonderful property!
