A Sophisticated Desert Contemporary with Iconic Mountain Views

This stunning, newly renovated desert retreat is designed to impress at every turn. Casa Montana blends elevated design with effortless comfort, all set against the breathtaking backdrop of the surrounding mountains.

From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by a light-filled, open-concept living space where a soft neutral palette and high-end finishes create a calm, sophisticated feel. Expansive sliding glass doors perfectly frame the beauty of Sereno Canyon and open wide to create seamless indoor-outdoor living—one of the home’s most unforgettable features.

Step outside to your private resort-style patio, thoughtfully designed for both relaxation and entertaining. Enjoy a sparkling pool, built-in BBQ with bar seating, outdoor fireplace, and separate firepit, along with multiple dining and lounge areas. Whether you’re starting your morning with coffee or ending the day with a glass of wine, the surrounding desert and mountain views are truly spectacular from every angle.

For those who love the outdoors, Casa Montana offers easy access to some of Scottsdale’s best hiking and biking trails, including the nearby Tom’s Thumb Trailhead, as well as world-class golf courses just minutes away. Some favorite courses nearby include Troon North, Grayhawk, TPC Scottsdale and The Boulders to name a few.

Inside, the home features 4 beautifully appointed bedrooms—one king suite and three queen suites—each with its own ensuite bathroom. One bathroom is a Jack-and-Jill layout with a shared shower and toilet area, while each bedroom maintains its own private vanity space. A powder room is conveniently located off the main living area. All bathrooms feature designer tile, fixtures, and lighting, and every bed is outfitted with luxurious 660+ thread count hotel-quality linens for a restful stay.

The gourmet kitchen is a dream for any chef, fully equipped with professional-grade appliances including a gas range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and two dishwashers. You’ll also find a full suite of small appliances—coffee maker with starter coffee and tea, Keurig, blender, toaster, mixer, food processor, and more—everything you need to cook, entertain, or simply enjoy.

Additional highlights include three gas fireplaces throughout the home, a cozy side patio for quiet moments, and high-speed WiFi for work or streaming.

Whether you’re here to explore, relax, or entertain, Casa Montana offers a refined desert experience in one of Scottsdale’s most beautiful natural settings.

POOL HEATING: We recommend that the pool be heated between Oct 1st and Jun 10th in order to be a comfortable swimming temperature. Pool heating is optional and available for $75/day. There is a minimum of three (3) consecutive days, and pool heating may only be scheduled for the full duration of the reservation - not for select days. Definitely let us know before your arrival if you want to enjoy swimming during your visit without a wetsuit! (Hint: an unheated pool stays just above the low temps of the night.)

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home was comfortable, well appointed, and pretty modern. Keep in mind 3 of the bedrooms essentially share a single bath. Beautiful kitchen with a Viking range and two ovens, good knives, and a well-stocked kitchen. This home is a bit of a drive into town, but very quiet- it was perfect for our retreat.

Wonderful Home

What a lovely home with beautiful views. Quite street and natural surroundings. We enjoyed walking early morning in neighborhood and sitting around 5 different sitting areas outside in the cool of the evenings. Inside of home was absolutely beautiful and spacious. Our favorite place was in the kitchen and family area with the views out the window of the mountains. Only thing that could be improved was beds in the smaller bedrooms. Very small (full size) would have better if all were queen size in other bedrooms besides master.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful time on our AZ vacation! This home is in a great location for hiking, going out to dinners, hitting the shopping or just laying by the pool! It has a great lay out and the kitchen is well stocked! We were able to check in early and the management company was great to work with! We would have given it a 5 star rating but the home/bedding/towels all need an update! It needs a deep clean and a bit of a face lift! Once it gets freshened up it will definitely be a 5 star rental!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Truly a 10 out of 10 stay. If I could rate it 10 stars I would do so. The place is immaculate inside and out. The location, which is key for us, had the big views and the property was private with lots of room between other properties. Once we find the right place we keep going back and that is what we will do with Casa Montana. Jamie and CJ are on top of all of the details. We own a luxury short term stay property on the beach and know how much effort it takes to run things at a true 5 star level. Jamie and CJ are doing it. 100%. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

The Perfect Get Away!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Casa Montana house and property turned out to be the PERFECT property for our family vacation/ reunion. The large, spacious floor plan offered plenty of room for everyone to gather together or to find a quiet corner to “catch up” with each other.Everyones’s favorite #1 spot was the kitchen! The Mountain View, from the large kitchen windows, is absolutely amazing! Lots of table seating, counter space and open floor plan to TV room. The kitchen is perfectly appointed with everything we needed to cook and entertain. Everything from beautiful serving pieces to plastic glasses and plates for the pool! Totally making meal prepping stress free!The pool was the highlight for the kids and there are so many places for adults to lounge poolside making it easy to keep an eye on things. Happy hour was always along side the gorgeous fire pit or fire place - your choice!Hiking was part of our overall plan, so the “rural” location was great for us. Located near the Tom Thumb trail head, it was easy to find lots of hiking options near by. And AJ’s food store was only 15 min away, although I ordered our main grocery list from Costco (Instacart) and food was delivered the same day! I can’t say enough about Casa Montana! It will always hold a special place in our heart and I hope we get back there some day! I
