Carefree Crest

If it's the quintessential Arizona you're looking for then you've found your next vacation spot here at Carefree Crest, a warm yet expansive property perched amongst the desert hills and surrounded on all sides by majestic saguaros and panoramic desert landscapes. The views here are legendary, so picture-perfect that perhaps that's why world-renowned golf course designer Pete Dye once chose to make this property home. From sun up to sundown, you'll find a room with a view and a place to enjoy your morning coffee or evening nightcap. A multi-generational home, the property offers plenty of options for gathering large families or groups of friends, ensuring everyone has a place to gather and also a place to call their own . Bonus: There is an Xbox Available for Use
The main home boasts a master suite and two expansive guest bedrooms plus a lower-level movie room, perfect for kids and adults alike to enjoy some downtime.

Top floor living optimizes the incredible views of Black Mountain and surrounding areas. The updated chefs' kitchen is top-notch, a dream for the most seasoned cook. Plenty of patios to choose from on this level, and every inch of the home is perfectly planned to optimize guest enjoyment and relaxation. Directly off the main living room, you'll see the pool and deck access to the guest casitas.

Three bedrooms and a pull-out couch offer ample space for your guests.
The master is fit for royalty, with a king bed, chaise lounge, and circular windows that enhance the desert vistas. Off the master is a second living room, featuring a pool table for endless hours of entertainment. Bathed in natural light via the wall-to-wall windows, this room is the highlight of the home!
Guest bedrooms are spacious yet cozy, located off the main living area, and share a bath via the third bedroom.

Nice home in a quiet and beautiful neighborhood
Great spot for multiple couples to stay. Nice to have spacious common areas but also have privacy with separation of bedrooms and casitas. Some of the house can use some updates. Needs new furniture around the pool.

Property was very Nice. Cassista needs updating. No trash cans, Upstairs Kitchen not functionable. (Note says "do not use") Maybe a Micro-wave would be better. No Shower Water Pressure if another plumbing fixture being used. Upstairs Bathroom Sink Drains very slow. Watching toothpaste floating as you wash-up. Called twice and they said it was fixed. Just lived with it after that. Main House. False Vrbo Advertisement for Bath for each Bedroom. Main House 3rd Bedroom Bathroom was downstairs in Movie Room and not near 3rd Bedroom upstairs. Tuff for Peron with knee problems going up and down. Pool very nice and clean. A Hand Railing is needed for getting in and out of the Pool. Tuff for Seniors. Cleaning fees were too much for not getting any type of Housekeeping during the week. Overall, we enjoyed Location and Quiet Neighborhood. Views were fantastic. Thanks for letting us stay at The Carefree Crest. Cumor Group.

Great family get together!
Wonderful home with all the amenities. We had 10 people and everyone had their own space from sleeping to bathrooms! Plenty of space to gather at mealtimes too! Our only suggestions would be non-stick cookware, more kitchen towels and black out shades in the bedrooms. The water pressure is still not great when someone is doing the dishes or two people are showering at the same time, but it all worked out fine! Cave Creek is a really fun little town! We will definitely stay again!

Pros---- Beautiful house and location. Working with Stay Porter went smoothly. Cons--- If you are going to continue renting this house out you REALLY need to do something about the water pressure. If more than 1 person takes a shower at the same time the water pressure is bad, especially in the front bedroom. Had been mentioned in prior reviews, was hoping the issue had been resolved by the time of our stay.

Worth the drive
Truly a wonderful home and experience. I only wish we had stayed longer. The views especially at sunset were amazing and the interior exceeded expectations. While it was only two of us, we certainly could and will think about bringing friends next time.
