5BDR Oasis w/Waterfall Pool, Hot Tub, Desert View | Desert Cascase by AvantStay | House in Carefree

Welcome to Desert Cascade, a serene mountainside retreat surrounded by the dramatic boulders, native flora, and wide-open skies that define Carefree. This upscale desert enclave offers a rare blend of tranquility and convenience, placing you just minutes from the art galleries and dining of Cave Creek, the golf courses of North Scottsdale, and scenic trails like Black Mountain and Spur Cross. Here, sweeping views and peaceful stillness set the tone for a slow, restorative Arizona getaway.
The property unfolds across beautifully landscaped grounds, where winding stone paths, mature palms, and towering rock formations create a setting that feels both natural and sculpted. At the center is a sparkling pool with a cascading waterfall that becomes the soundtrack of your stay. A hot tub sits nearby for stargazing nights, while multiple outdoor living areas invite you to spend full days outside. A spacious covered patio offers a fireplace, a dining table for six, comfortable seating, and a built-in BBQ—ideal for grilling after a day of exploring or lingering over leisurely sunset dinners.
Inside, high ceilings, exposed beams, and expansive windows pull the desert scenery into the home. The open-concept layout is designed for effortless group living, with a large chef’s kitchen featuring stainless-steel appliances, a generous island, and plenty of space for cooking together. The dining area seats six comfortably, while a bright breakfast nook with seating for six provides a warm place for slow morning coffee. The living room centers around a cozy fireplace and offers direct views of the pool and surrounding landscape, making it a natural gathering place from sunrise to nightfall.
With five bedrooms and thoughtful separation between spaces, Desert Cascade comfortably hosts up to twelve guests. The primary bedroom features two queen beds and a private ensuite bathroom with both a shower and a tub. Two additional guest suites each offer queen beds and their own ensuite bathrooms—one with a shower/tub combination and the other with a walk-in shower. A fourth bedroom with a king bed provides additional sleeping space just steps from the main living area. For guests seeking added privacy, the detached casita offers a peaceful escape of its own, complete with a king bed and ensuite bathroom with a shower.
A half bathroom serves the main living spaces, and the home’s layout makes it easy for everyone to spread out while staying connected. Whether you’re savoring quiet desert mornings, exploring nearby towns and trails, or spending long afternoons by the waterfall pool, Desert Cascade offers a peaceful, scenic, and deeply inviting base for your Arizona stay.

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.
