Scottsdale with kids

A family base where the pool, the playground and the parking are all thirty steps away

Three bedrooms upstairs, a sleeper sofa (full-size luxury comfort mattress) for the teenager who wants the TV, a Pack ’n Play and high chair waiting, a kitchen for breakfast at home, and a playground on the lawn outside. This is the Scottsdale family rental that does not require a car for every outing.

Why families keep coming back to this layout

A guest with young kids wrote that the carport was a huge plus because loading in and out was easy and the car stayed cool. That is the practical genius of the place: you park under cover directly behind the patio, walk gear straight into the kitchen, and the pool and playground are across the greenbelt, close enough to hear the kids and far enough for a quiet coffee.

Bedrooms are all upstairs. The primary suite has a king bed and a bathroom with a tub; the two queen bedrooms each have a smart TV for a kids’ movie night while adults sit on the patio. A full-size refrigerator, a five-burner range and a dishwasher mean breakfast and lunch at home are easy, which is where the savings on a family trip actually come from.

Family questions

Kids, cribs, tubs and the pool

Is the home good for children?

Yes. A Pack ’n Play and a high chair are provided at no charge (bring your own Pack ’n Play sheets), there is a community playground on the lawn outside, and the carport makes loading kids and gear easy. Additional baby equipment can be rented through GoodNight Stay’s partner as an add-on. Note that the bedrooms are upstairs.

How many people can stay, and what are the beds?

Hideaway sleeps eight: a king bed in the primary suite, queen beds in bedrooms two and three, and a full-size sleeper sofa with a luxury comfort mattress in the living room. All three bedrooms are upstairs and each has its own smart TV. The city limits short-term rentals to six unrelated adults, not counting children.

Is the home suitable for guests with limited mobility?

Partly. The living room, kitchen, dining area, half bath and patio are on the main level, but all three bedrooms and both full bathrooms are upstairs. There is no elevator, so the home is not suitable for guests who cannot use stairs. If you have specific questions about doorways or the shower, ask us before booking.

Is the community pool fenced and is there a lifeguard?

The pool is a community pool under HOA rules and there is no lifeguard. Children must be supervised by an adult at all times, and the pool closes at 10 PM.

Is there a bathtub for small children?

Yes, the primary bathroom has a bathtub as well as a walk-in shower. The second full bath has a walk-in shower only.
