Scottsdale Desert Oasis

3 Bedrooms 2 Bathrooms Sleeps 6 Scottsdale

Combining city convenience and lush seclusion, Scottsdale Desert Oasis lives up to its name, and then some. Find three bedrooms, two baths, and a breezy, open layout with vaulted ceilings, skylights and outdoor access from multiple rooms - open the glass doors for seamless indoor/outdoor living. (There’s central air, too, of course!)

Perfect for re-locators seeking their “forever home” in the area, or as an adventure basecamp, a snowbirds' nest, or a relaxing retreat for families. Whatever brings you to Scottsdale, be sure to take a quiet moment to sprawl out on our hammock under the leafy shade of mature trees and breathe in the citrus-scented air.

Speaking of “sprawl”...you may have heard Phoenix/Scottsdale has a lot of that. Opinions are mixed, but it’s undeniable that our north-central location makes the most of Scottsdale’s continued growth. Everything you need and want is nearby, with easy access on and off the freeways:

• Scottsdale resorts/spas: 5 minutes
• 101/105 Freeways: 5 minutes
• ASU: 30 minutes
• Restaurants: 5 minutes
• Groceries: 5 minutes
• Airport: 30 minutes
• Hiking trails: 10 to 20 minutes
• Downtown Phoenix: 20 minutes
• Central Uptown: 15 minutes
• North Scottsdale/Troon/Pinnacle Peak: 15 minutes
• The Arizona Biltmore: 15 minutes
• Desert Ridge: 15 minutes
• Bike path/Hayden Greenbelt: 5 minutes
• Camelback Shopping District: 15 minutes
• Old Town Scottsdale: 15 minutes
. Westworld: 15 minutes

Despite the bustle all around, your home base is located a residential neighborhood, nestled between Gainey Ranch and Paradise Valley, where you can “live like a local” for as long as you’re here. The house’s large, corner lot only adds to the quiet, and is one of the reasons I didn’t sell the house after spending 13 years living here! 

Guests say the fully equipped kitchen is a lot of fun to cook in, and we’ve stocked it well for that purpose. Feel free to select from our herb garden in the yard and citrus fruits from the trees (when in season) to enhance your meals. Serve your meal at an 8-person farmhouse table. Or dine al fresco in the yard. There are also gas and charcoal grills for you to use.

After dinner, retreat to the den with its wood-burning fireplace and a large flat-screen with Dish network cable TV and Starz. Or grab a bottle of wine gather around the outdoor fire pit.

Don’t leave your dog at home; we’re pet-friendly (for an additional fee). They'll love the yard, too!

Bed and Bath

Desert Oasis has three bedrooms: one master suite and two guest bedrooms that share a bath. 

The master features a queen bed, flat-screen TV, sliding glass doors to the yard, and an arched entry to the en-suite bath, which has a tiled shower/floors and glass block windows for both daylight and privacy. 

The guest bedrooms have a queen bed and a full bed, respectively, and their shared bath across the hall has a tub/shower combo and travertine tile.

A separate office space is ideal for getting work done.

If there is anything we can do to help you plan your trip to Scottsdale, please let us know! We spent many years here and know it well.

New induction range with air fryer capabilities Oct 2025.

Pets with additional fee.

Ring Video Doorbell and two exterior cameras onsite.

Great time in Scottsdale

by Kit Fordham
We had a wonderful time at the Scottsdale-Desert Oasis again this year. The home is in a great location, close to everything and well maintained. We were comfortable and enjoyed our stay very much. We'll be back!

All-Around Great Stay!

by Steve Nichols
The home was nearly perfect for our two-week stay. The house was very clean and everything we needed was at our fingertips. The walled-in grass back yard was perfect for our two dogs. The location is ideal -- quiet neighborhood, wide sidewalks on both sides of the streets, easy one mile access to the 101 Loop, minutes from golf courses, and plenty of shopping nearby. Our host was very nice about responding to questions and concerns. In spite of the crummy weather we experienced during our stay, this would definitely be our go-to house on our next extended stay in the Phoenix area.

Great Scottsdale Retreat

by Mary Schulte
We were so happy in our weekend, Scottsdale VRBO. The location was perfect - right between the northern golf courses and Old Town Scottsdale. We had access to everything. And the neighborhood was quiet and safe.
The house was perfect. Two living spaces gave everyone room to spread out and relax. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable and everything was clean and tidy. The back yard was perfect for cocktail time, and the citrus trees were an added bonus.
Thanks to Splashy Ventures for all of their thoughtful communication and preparation. We will definitely come again.

Great Vacation rental in a great location!

by julia desmond
This vacation rental was perfect for us over New Year's! Clean and cozy. The kitchen and dining room were redone and overlook the backyard with doors opening up to it. The backyard was great for our dogs, and we had a great time! Perfect location to explore all of what Scottsdale to offer.

Comfort and Convenience in Scottsdale

by Karen McClure
My husband and I found this home very comfortable, clean, and in a convenient quiet location. The bed was very comfortable, the kitchen was very well equipped, and there is a pleasant fenced back yard with furniture for lounging and grass for our dog. We appreciated the bicycles in the garage for use on the off-road paved trails very close to this neighborhood. We would highly recommend this property in north Scottsdale.

Perfect Home Away From Home

by Lynne Whitcomb
We stayed here for 5 months during our home remodel and it was the perfect place to stay. The house had everything we needed for our family of four and was in a great location. The owner Beth was very responsive whenever I had a question and took care of everything we needed right away. When the AC stopped working in 110 degree heat, Beth had a repairman fix it extremely quickly before it ever had a chance to heat up. Also, the neighbors are all very nice and friendly and the house is located in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. We really enjoyed our stay here and couldn’ t have found a better place to stay while we waited for our own home to be ready.
We were glad to be your home base during your remodel!

My husband and I have stayed in this home for 4 seasons and have really enjoyed our time there. The home is well situated for groceries, hiking, cycling and restaurants. Our host Beth has always been very responsive and easy to work with. We would recommend this property.
Thank you both.

This is a wonderful home located in a quiet community. Room enough for 3 couples and also ideal for a family. It has 2 living rooms so there's plenty of room to spread out.

Don't pass this one by you'll love it!

A perfect place to stay

by Darci Palmer
We've been renting this home for the past six years and haven't even looked at other properties because it's just perfect for us. It's less than 30 minutes from the airport. It's a spacious with 2 separate living rooms a great big kitchen that overlooks a beautiful backyard with citrus trees and plenty of privacy. The neighborhood is quiet. It's close to the freeways, 5 minutes to the supermarket, CVS and
a number of great resturants. It has a great kitchen the owner has provided everything you need. Plus it overlooks a beautiful backyard that is well maintained and even has has some citrus trees. We play a lot of golf while we're in Arizona and this Desert Oasis is a perfect place to come home to. Try it you won't be disappointed!
We love having you stay.

The Perfect April Getaway

by Anne Fowler
I am writing this review for my parents as they were the ones who stayed in the home. They stayed for two weeks while visiting their grandchildren. They were extremely happy with their experience. It had everything they would need to cook. You have a beautiful view of the backyard from the kitchen, making it easy to watch the grandkids running around in the large backyard. For small kids it is ideal because there isn't a pool that you would need to worry about. There is also plenty of shade and a hammock for lounging. My parents really enjoy relaxing as there was a large television in the main living room, family room, and the master bedroom. There are unique skylights the noticed while being in the home that had them thinking about placing the same kind in their home. The rooms were a nice size and the master bedroom has french doors that open to the backyard which is really nice. Beth was amazing with them. They called her a couple of times because of a water leak in the master bathroom. She had someone out in less than 2 hours. My mother had difficulty drying some of the clothes and Beth had someone out to replace the dryer within 24 hours. The response is key for rentals such as this because it is a house. The fact that she was very responsive and kind made a huge difference in their stay. It is difficult for my parents to stay anywhere but a hotel. This is the first time they stayed in a rental vacation home and they absolutely loved it. When they come back for longer stays I will always check to see if this home is available. The neighborhood is quite, garage is nice to have, and the location is so close to the highway/stores. Perfect spot! Beth keeps it very honest in her approach with her home. Would definitely recommend and will have my parents stay here again. Thanks Beth!
Thanks so much!

A great winter getaway!

by Diana Basciano
My husband and I spent 3 months in this lovely home. The kitchen had absolutely everything we needed for meal making. We loved sitting out on either the front patio or in the backyard watching the hummingbirds, butterflies and garden come to life with blooms. We enjoyed riding the bikes that were available for our use, riding the nearby Indian Bend Wash path. Great location for restaurants and hiking too.
The house is well represented by the photos. Beth was a pleasure to work with.
Liked it so much we'll be back next year!
Thank you!

Desert Oasis

by Darci Palmer
Once again, we enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood in the heart of Scottsdale. Beth, the owner has thought of absolutely everything you need to feel right at home. The location is perfect, you're very close to the Gainey Village shops which has a good Italian restaurant, a great Thai restaurant and a pub.Plus, you can hop on the 101 & 202 loop in minutes. The kitchen has everything you need. And with 2 living rooms you can spread out. Great for a family. The backyard is very private surrounded by citrus trees as well as a manicured lawn a rare find! It truly is an oasis in the desert. This was our fourth time staying here and it feels like home!
I love it that Darci is learning her way around like a local! And learning all the great restaurants and navigation secrets!...
