2 Bedroom House in Carefree

This home is conveniently located in Carefree/Cave Creek AZ, surrounded by 20 acres of land preserve. Painted Carefree is very private. No close neighbors. Wonderful views of the mountains and its surroundings. We are Dog Friendly!
We do accept Dogs. Well trained, well mannered Pets. There is a fee. We clean extra each and every time there has been a pet. One would never know that a pooch has visited!
Painted Carefree is an easy walk to many restaurants and attractions both in Carefree and in Cave Creek. Of course you need a car, but in reality you have a very easy walk to town and could go without. This is a single private house, not a villa or condo.
Painted Carefree is very clean and tidy. We take pride in providing many amenities. The house has everything for cooking, for enjoying. Just bring your food and beverages, most everything else is provided. We launder both mattress pads, pillow protectors and blankets after each and every stay. My home is bright and airy and in great condition. It is comfortable and "user friendly". I love this place and I make sure that it is up to my standards and ready for me, move in ready!
Our outdoor living is the very best, cannot be more pleasant. We keep a gorgeous flower garden growing 90% of the year. Petunias, Snapdragons, Sweet Peas, Geraniums, and more are planted annually. Rosemary and Lavender adorn the premiss. Orange, lime and lemon trees grow for you to enjoy the fresh citrus. Jasmine surrounds the home. In the front entr,y we plant Arizona wild flowers. It is so pretty!!
On the back patio we have the greatest wood burning Bee Hive fireplace with a living room set up. So resort like!
Viewed from our back patio are, javalina, quail, coyote, bobcats, desert fox, road runners, jack rabbits and mule deer, all are seen regularly at our watering hole or frolicking in Galloway wash. A mountain lion has been seen as well. (Wish there was a photograph). There is a 360 degree of Mountain views and the very best Arizona sunsets. We always have our bird feeders full and a bird block. These amenities ensure an incredible array of birds. Cardinals, doves, hawks, eagles, Says Phoebe, Woodpeckers, Hummingbirds, Cactus Wren, Phainopepla and so so many more!
The home is located in the heart of Carefree, but one feels like they are way out in the desert because of being surrounded by 20 acres of land trust. The house is situated on 2+ acres with a privacy wall that surrounds the pool and outdoor living area that can be enjoyed day or night.
I am very proud of my home and keep it immaculate , organized and personal. There is a Living room / dining area / TV room and well equipped kitchen. Master bedroom has king sized bed, master bath, walk in closet and a private bedroom patio. The mattress is foam. Guest room has a king sized bed and private bath. The Guest room is well separated from Master bedroom with an entry door to back patio.
Enjoy romantic, starry Arizona nights from the pool, patio or around the outside bee hive fireplace. Great outside dining area. Most enjoyable. Wonderful for entertaining. Wonderful for relaxing. Wonderful for private sunbathing.
Enjoy golf, horseback riding, biking, spring baseball training, hiking, and the Musical Instrument Museum, all are within close proximity . The Boulder Resort is just down the road. Bartlett Lake is 20 miles east with all kinds of boat rentals. Tonto National forest is 5 miles away, meaning you are in the desert without population or development. Great area for bike riding. Hiking at Spur Cross,
Browns Ranch or right outside the back in Galloway Wash is fantastic. We suggest MTM ranch for horseback riding!
We are located in the north end of the Valley of the Sun, anything that Phoenix or Scottsdale has to offer is no further than an hour away or less. Sedona Az. is a good hour north. Tonto National Forest, Bartlett Lake 15-30 minutes east. A great location for city access and real desert living and exploring. Great hikes to indian ruins and parks (Spur Cross, Tonto National Park, Browns Ranch, Sears Kay). All very close. Within walking distance is the post office, grocery store, farmers market, very fine dining, cowboy dining, wine bars, shops and local live music.
Just a Gem! You won't go wrong! And we will make every effort to make sure you are happy. Every Effort!!
During off season, mid may till mid September our cancelation fees are flexible. Please inquire!

Written by a former guest! The Carefree Life The thermometer read just fifty two
And my wife, who’s not a moaner,
Said “Take me away to somewhere warm,
I’ve never been to Arizona.”
So I searched the Net for several hours,
You have to tread warily, see?
But in the end I found us a place,
And its name was Painted Carefree.
There was no doubt, we had to go
And explore the state of Arizona.
A couple of emails, and we’re already friends
With Susan, the property owner.
Four days in Flagstaff to acclimatize
Then we drove down the I 17,
Finding the house was easy because
It’s the most colorful house to be seen.
The painted house was cool, I mean cool(!),
Full of art and rugs and treasures
And so was the pool, in a watery way,
We could splash around there at our leisure.
We were keen to film the wildlife,
And there, just over the wall
Were Mr. and Mrs. Javelina,
With their baby, all stripey and small.
Then came a wily coyote
Strolling along by the wash
It was all so terribly exciting,
What else would we see, oh my gosh!
But later that day, close up to the lens
Was the prettiest thing you could look at,
Taking a drink, with its whiskers all wet.
Was a shy and magnificent bobcat!
We’ve had our fun, enjoyed the sun
There’s been so much to attract us
We loved the hills and critters too
And the amazing saguaro cactus.
The time has come to pack our bags
With a feeling of deflation,
But it’s been just great, a memorable time
What a wonderful vacation!

Summary: Teri was great and the property was very nice
Karen G. May 2, 2025 03:19:50 AM
Summary: Susan's house is a dream! We felt like we were staying at a our little private resort. I wish I could give 10 stars in each category! The home was extremely comfortable and anything we needed was in reach. In fact, anything we needed and didn't know we needed was in reach! The garden/pool area were magical. We are absolutely looking forward to future stays :)!

Summary: Spectacular home surrounded by preserved land with phenomenal views of mountains and desert. Home is beautifully appointed and reflects the touch and care of the owner. The house, patio, pool and spa were immaculately clean. The colorful flower beds, bird feeders, and nightly howls of coyotes gave the house a magical feel. Carefree and the neighboring town of Cave Creek still possess the character of the old west. There are several wonderful restaurants in town; many within walking distance. Nearby attractions include Spur Cross for hiking, biking and horseback riding, the Musical Instrument Museum, Native American Indian ruins dating back centuries and much more. This house is perfect for a couple, friends or family vacation. We will definitely be back.

Summary: What a great stay! Property was as described, comfortable, fully equipped, and ready to enjoy! Teri was the most helpful host and always available for questions. The eclectic style of the casita inside in addition to the wonderful opportunity to experience nature outdoors makes this such a perfect place to get away. I will be back for sure!!
