Stepping out to the pool deck, a large 8-seater teak dining table provides for poolside feasting, with a nearby built-in gas barbecue grill able to contribute to the menu. The pool and spa features that classic kidney shape with six sun loungers and four umbrellas providing the optimum environment for soaking up that desert sun with a little shade, all in complete privacy.

Beyond the pool, the first class facilities continue with a large fire pit with comfortable seating for six, a full-size tennis and pickleball court, plus shuffleboard court, all with magnificent mountain views. Yes, with so much to do, start thinking about extending your stay!

Meanwhile on the east side of the house, a second outdoor dining area provides the perfect place for breakfast as you bask in the rising morning sun.
