Dog-friendly home w/outdoor pool & firepit, near the top of South Mountain - Desert Foothills

Enjoy breathtaking desert views from this three-bedroom Phoenix retreat, an elegant hillside home with a private outdoor pool and firepit, a dog-friendly living space, and wonderful access to nearby golf courses, hiking trails, and bike paths.
You'll find this luxury home in Ahwatukee Foothills Village, a highly desirable neighborhood up near the top of South Mountain. Spend your mornings exploring South Mountain Park's 16,000 acres of hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding trails; grab an afternoon tee time at Foothills Golf Club just two miles east; and enjoy easy access to downtown Phoenix (23 miles north), downtown Scottsdale (24 miles northeast), and Sky Harbor International Airport (19 miles north).
Whether you're a golfer, a business traveler, or a snowbird escaping winter, you'll find so much to love in the plush, air-conditioned living space. Prepare homemade breakfasts in the full kitchen (with a dishwasher), use the free WiFi to catch up on work in the office, and spend the rest of the day luxuriating in the backyard oasis. Take a refreshing dip in the private pool, sit down for dinner at the covered patio table, and gather around the firepit each evening.
You'll never forget the sun-splashed days you spend at this lovely Phoenix home - book your vacation to Arizona today!

Wonderful

We really enjoyed staying at this home! The house, the neighborhood and the backyard with its pool and its natural hillside privacy made it a very relaxing and quiet retreat. We loved how open the floor plan was and especially the spaciousness of the master BR and the family room/kitchen area. Everything was in good working order and added amenities like the patio rollout awning are a plus. The house is tastefully decorated and was thoroughly clean. It is supplied with all of the kitchen appliances, dishes, etc. that we needed. We had one tiny surprise when a battery operated lock on the owner's storage closet started chirping. Mike, with the property management firm, immediately responded and took the time to personally come to the house to fix it and charge it. All was good for the remainder of the stay. If we would have had time to extend our trip, we would have! We'd definitely try to reserve it again if/when we return to Phoenix.

Beautiful house, nice neighborhood
The house was beautifully decorated, spacious and clean. The pool was lovely as well. We enjoyed walks in the neighborhood and a grocery store and several restaurants were close by.

Privacy & Solitude, Close to Town
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. We especially liked the backyard: a beautiful pool and landscaping that truly immersed you in the area. We spent our mornings drinking coffee outside, watching the chuckwallas run across the rock face, listening to the buzz of hummingbirds, and entertaining quail that scooted through the foliage. It was peaceful, a far cry from the “packed in” feel of the valley, yet within 30 minutes of the cities. We will be back!
This is a gorgeous home in one of the quietest neighborhoods. The backyard is like being on a tropical island minus the island. It wound up just being my husband, myself and our two Yorkies. We are grateful to be able to bring our canine children to this home with us. Many thanks to the owners. Hope we can return one day. This home spoiled us.
We loved this property. It is a very quiet neighborhood, with wonderful areas for walking. We enjoyed sitting in the backyard with the rock wall, beautiful landscaping, and pool waterfall. The house was well supplied with paper products, soap, detergents, kitchen utensils, and appliances.Our only concern was the master bed. We both rolled to the center and did more cuddling than usual, could be a good thing :)We were 2.5 miles from our son and his family and we certainly hope to stay here again.
We were supposed to be in a different rental for the month of March, but that home went up for sale. We really lucked out getting this home as a replacement. From the moment we walked in, you can tell the home is well maintained. Private, quiet location. Experienced no major issues. As others have mentioned, you have to be careful to make sure the refrigerator doors are completely closed.

A true vacation
The spaciousness of the house and all the amenities exceeded my expectations. I usually stay in hotels when I travel and this was my first vrbo experience. It's a little daunting to book a place sight unseen. The landscaping, the quiet and all around beauty was so relaxing. The weather was perfect. A side note; besides all the nature we saw, there were 2 humming birds that were camped out in the cat windchime and the momma would leave and bring food back to the baby..it was so interesting to witness. I will look for this property again when I come to Phoenix as well as other places I travel to quite often. I am pleased that my first experience was such a positive one

Liked: Cleanliness
Really did love that property. Unfortunate the house has been rented to people that did not care about the property. I took pictures of the property that had stains in carpet, blinds that did not work or was missing. Supposedly the owners get money for damages or missing things were never fixed or replaced my owners that were paid by clients that did the damages. The door going out to the back had screws in the door strip that stuck out which was very dangerous for children , older or any age. There is mouse poop all over the garage. The digital lock on the front door was very difficult. We treated the property with the correct process and realize it was valuable property. We had a great time by the pool when it started to cool down from the high heat in AZ. We were there for a funeral the our best friends from the military. I still say that we had a great time to have family together.

Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Cleanliness, communication
Gorgeous property- management group failing.
Gorgeous home, gorgeous pool.
Issues we had:
Refrigerator unplugged when we arrived, pool vacuum not working- unable to use for sort of out stay (entire reason we booked this property), not enough pool towels for 4 guests, no spare hand towels to use (there for 4 days, no extra towels provided), no salt, toilet paper like sandpaper, given 1/2 a roll of paper towels for 4 days, no napkins, no salt, no coffee provided, the coffee filters that were given don’t fit the machine causing it to leak- hard to clean up with no supplies provided.
We rented a home so we could cook. There’s no Tupperware or ziplocks to store left overs in. When you travel almost 1,000 miles you expect some basics to be provided. Really disappointed in what was available. I’ve rented a few home properties before, never had a problem with not having enough supplies before. Only with this property.
This is a large home in Ahwatukee. The outside area is beautiful and peaceful. The landscaping needs a little touch up as things are a bit overgrown, but still, this is a paradise. You will see hummingbirds, butterflies, lizards, etc., outside and on the rock wall. The home is comfy and was very clean on arrival. People need to remember that this home is a short-term rental so yes there is some wear and tear. Fridge needs to be replaced or fixed. As mentioned by others the doors do not stay shut. The water dispenser fell off the door the first time we opened it to put away groceries. I did report this to Vacasa. They get back to you quickly with any issues or concerns. You find nice starter packs of hand soap, dish soap and pods, washing machine pods and toilet paper. (*Note the coffee machine takes cone filters.) We did find lots of mouse poop in the garage so opted to park in the driveway. We did bring our own pool toys, since I was told there were none. There was no umbrella to use on the patio area which would be a nice addition. There is a wonderful Baja shelf that with umbrella shade would have been so nice to sit and relax. Again, this home is in a nice, quiet, clean area of Phoenix. A very relaxing home.
I thoroughly enjoyed staying here. We enjoyed the comfy atmosphere. Swimming was wonderful and everything was easy to find. Loved that there were books and games, along with beautiful and funny artwork. Definitely recommend
