Out in the far northeast corner of Scottsdale, the houses spread out, the saguaros take over, and plenty of neighbors keep horses of their own. Fallbrook fits right in. The home sits on an expansive desert property with open views in every direction and its own private horse stables, something you won't find on many vacation rentals.
Four bedrooms and three bathrooms sleep up to 12 guests, so a couple of families or a big group of friends can share the trip without anyone feeling squeezed. There's room inside to gather and room outside to wander off with a coffee and have the desert to yourself for a while.
Evenings are the main event. The mountains sit right on the horizon, and as the sun goes down they turn gold, then rose, then a deep blue while the desert goes quiet around you. Pull a chair outside and plan on staying there until the first stars show up.
Tonto National Forest starts just east of the property. The Verde River at Box Bar is roughly a 15-minute drive, with riverside trails, shady cottonwoods, and a spot to cool your feet in the water. Bartlett Lake is a little farther out for a day of boating or paddling. Head the other direction and you'll reach Brown's Ranch in the McDowell Sonoran Preserve, one of the best trail networks in the Valley for hiking and mountain biking, along with Pinnacle Peak and the courses at Troon North.
When the group wants a slower day, the resort spas of north Scottsdale are about 20 minutes away and make an easy case for a massage and a long afternoon by the pool. Carefree, Cave Creek, and Fountain Hills are all within a half hour, and Old Town Scottsdale is close enough for a night out whenever you want the city back.
Then it's home to Fallbrook, where the sky does the rest.

Scottsdale, Arizona is best known as a world-class spa and golf destination. While that reputation is well-deserved, it also has an excellent art and food scene, as well as a laid-back vibe that attracts travelers near and far. When visitors aren't playing golf, which truly is incredible here, they can enjoy year-round sunshine, hiking in the Sonoran Desert, kayaking on the Lower Salt River, and touring the Bradshaw Mountains on ATVs. Scottsdale is the place to be if you're looking for a warm getaway that's perfect for both adventure seekers and relaxation lovers.
