Scottsdale Retreat | Pool, Putt & More
Guest rating: 4.9 / 5
Overview
Scottsdale Retreat | Pool, Putt & More (also referenced as “The Fillmore”) is a refreshed, private 4-bedroom Scottsdale-area home designed for group stays. A key highlight is the backyard setup: a heated plunge pool plus a custom 5-hole putting green for low-key competition and hangouts. The property is smoke-free and operates under a strict no-party policy with local noise-ordinance enforcement in mind.
Layout & Sleeping Setup
The home sleeps larger groups with a mix of 1 King and 3 Queen beds across four bedrooms, including two suite-style setups. A newly converted garage adds a second primary suite featuring a king bedroom and a spa-style en-suite bath for extra privacy. Indoors, an open-concept living area with a large wrap-around sectional and Smart TV connects easily to the dining area and kitchen.
Kitchen & In-Home Conveniences
A modern kitchen with island seating includes an oven/stove, microwave, and other standard cooking basics for meals at home. Practical amenities include air conditioning and heating, free Wi‑Fi, cable TV, a washer, and an ironing board. Outdoor living extends to a covered patio, balcony/patio areas, a fireplace, and an outdoor grill for cookouts.
Outdoor Amenities & Recreation
The backyard is set up as a private retreat with a heated plunge pool (heating is complimentary but may be inconsistent during colder winter months) and a custom putting green. Guests can use outdoor dining seating (noted as seating six) and a lounge-style outdoor living area for evenings outside. A pool use and safety waiver is required prior to check-in.
Location & Nearby Access
The property sits within easy reach of Old Town Scottsdale (about a 10-minute drive), Tempe, and the Loop 101 freeway for convenient access around the metro area. Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport is roughly 8.6 km away (about a 15-minute drive per the host), with Mesa Gateway Airport about 29.6 km away. Several bus stops are nearby, including Bridalwreath & McKellips Rd (Flag Zone) (~337 m), Scottsdale Rd & Fillmore St (~415 m), and Roosevelt St & 74th St (~541 m), and there are multiple casual dining options in the surrounding area.
Best for
This home is best for families and friend groups who want an activity-forward backyard, thanks to the heated plunge pool, outdoor dining patio, grill, and 5-hole putting green. It also suits multi-couple trips because it includes a king setup plus three queens, with an added second primary suite and spa-style en-suite for extra privacy. Travelers who want easy access to Old Town Scottsdale, Tempe, and Sky Harbor will appreciate the quick-drive location near the Loop 101.
Travel tips
Plan on driving or rideshare: Old Town Scottsdale is about 10 minutes away, and the Loop 101 provides quick access across Scottsdale and the greater Phoenix area. If you plan to use transit, there are bus stops within roughly a 5–10 minute walk (about 337–541 m away). Pool heating is complimentary but can fluctuate in colder winter months—expect it to warm better during the day than at night.
