Scottsdale begins to the east of downtown Phoenix and Sky Harbor International Airport, and continues north all the way to Cave Creek and Carefree. Annual events such as the horse-drawn Parada del Sol parade and the Phoenix Open golf tournament bring diverse crowds to the city year after year.

Hot air balloon rides, horseback tours, kayaking, and mountain climbing are all just minutes from Scottsdale. There is plenty to do here like the Desert Foothills Scenic Drive - a short drive which is marked with informative signs about the vegetation and natural features of the area.

For those who believe that the fun doesn’t have to stop when the sun goes down, Scottsdale is an after-hours mecca that begs to be explored. For dining, check out the 4th Floor Grille & Sports Lounge - a restaurant that has a separate bar for sports lovers. Enjoy a soothing spa treatment or spend a day lounging at the pool sipping cocktails, Scottsdale is sure to make you want to come back for more.
