Tucked neatly in the north corner of Maricopa County, Carefree is just a few miles away from Scottsdale and Phoenix, but a world away from the bustle of the city. If you’re craving art museums, festivals, great shopping, professional sports or a lively nightlife, just jump in the car and drive five miles down the road to Scottsdale, but if you are in the mood to relax at the spa, walk the historic “old west” trails or explore the Sonoran Desert on a jeep tour, unwind at the renowned Carefree Resort and Villas. The town of Carefree may be small, but its personality is immense. Commonly known as where “cowboys meet caviar,” this area of Arizona has an alluring folklore, serene sandy dunes and relaxing, tranquil surroundings. A visit to Carefree will whisper the stories of a history-rich, “old west” folklore while you take in magnificent desert-scapes and allow the meditative surroundings to replenish your spirit.

And with venues such as Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, Tucson International Airport, and Scottsdale Municipal Airport, experiencing all that Arizona has to offer is quick and easy. The rich, Native American culture, and history of famous Arizonans such as renowned architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, makes for an entertaining, yet educational experience. Southern Arizona offers a rich history of the “Old West,” with its western towns, guest ranches, and stunning sights such as Karchner Caverns. Sports fans will delight in watching a live game of the 2001 World Champion Arizona Diamondbacks, or the NBA Phoenix Suns.
