Older more traditional resort hotel in a delightful location in Carefree, Az. The town of Careful has a unique West character and well worth a visit..

Great hotel in the middle of nowhere
This hotel is really far out of the way so if you're looking for a vacation away from the city (and I mean really far away from the city), this is the place. There are a few restaurants close by but not much. The pool is fun, the rooms facing the pool are quite large but it needs a little updating. Nice restaurant and bar, good food. But not sure if I'd stay there again because of the location.

RUN ... RUN FAR AND FAST
My experience was 100% horrible and I am not a drama queen. This hotel RUINED my vacation. I arrived, to get a room on the back side; overlooking the parking lot and it was in desperate need of updating. Water leak stains on the ceiling. dark and dingy and very depressing. The next morning I realized the toilet wasn't working. An engineer came & something was stuck and a full removal was in need. So, we called the front desk and they couldn't move me - they were booked. I agreed to leave the room (for 5 to 6 hours) so they could do their work. As the engineer left, he dragged the tools that were just in the toilet along the carpet. Are you kidding? Do you know where that has been? Now, I fear human waste has just been dragged along the carpet. I also ask to have the carpet cleaned. I leave to come back to realize nothing had been done. So, I start from scratch calling the front desk, again. No one seems to know of my problem. I explain that there is likely feces on the carpet and I insist on being moved. I had packed my bags and was sitting outside in a chair. Somehow after arguing they finally found another room for me. Why should I have to argue about this? The next evening I called, Teri and front desk manager to complain and the above situation and that by 5:30pm the cleaning crew hadn't come to clean the new room. Teri sent the cleaning crew and apologized that they were late but the general manager never called me. This is totally unacceptable. It was absolutely 100% awful. Motel 6 would have been better. Really, a clean room with a functional toilet isn't too much to ask.

Large room small pillows.
I enjoyed the very large room and balcony. The king size bed was nice too but the little airplane size pillows gave me a stiff neck for the next 2 days. The open shower design with no door or curtain was cool to look at, but left me shivering underneath the water saving shower head. I wish the room had an iPod docking radio, alarm clock. This is something I see quite often in Hotel rooms and I couldn't listen to my tunes. The atmosphere of the restaurant and grounds were very relaxing.

Long walk from hotel
If you stay here you should dine at the Carefree Station and sit outside in the garden. Drive to this location, don't walk.
