Property Description

The area surrounding Carefree, Arizona, epitomizes the best of the Old West. For centuries, this storied locale has attracted Native Americans, cowboys, and miners ? and still casts an entrancing spell on travelers today. The town itself, however, was conceived in the mid-1940s as a master planned community with an emphasis was on leisure - with street names such as Easy Street, Tranquil Trail, and Ho and Hum Roads - and the town's motto became "Home of cowboys and caviar, where the Old West meets the new." Pay tribute to the vision of these trailblazing pioneers, and treat yourself to magnificent desert and mountain views, unparalleled luxury, and thrilling recreation at Carefree Resort & Villas.
