  • Michelle S
    "Large residential lots, beautiful scenery and no HOA. Love the small town atmosphere with residents riding their horses to restaurants, impromptu tractor parades and art festivals. Very eclectic "

    "Wild West Days and Cave Creek Wicked and Taste of Cave Creek are three community events we look forward to every autumn. "
  • Wolfman
    "It's paradise for dogs as long as they are large enough to deter coyotes. Small dogs need constant supervision and leashes. "
  • Wolfman

  • Wolfman

  • John S.
    "Only 90 homes, very quiet community. The HOA throws a few block parties a year. There is also a group of “Women Who Wine”. "
  • Blwdvm
    "This island of county offers quiet country living with horse amenities within minutes of world class shopping, dining and entertainment."
  • psdavies11
    "This area is so beautiful. The golf course community is gated and off the beaten path. This is such an active area for the arts, golf, hiking and other outdoor adventures. The schools are well supported and lead the valley in performance. "
  • psdavies11
    "As a frequent visitor I had come to love this area and love the people in Rancho Manana. The golf course is amazing and with all of the arts and crafts in the area there is always something to do and see. The homes in the Rancho Manana development are nothing but luxury and blend beautifully into the mountains and golf course."
  • A737
    "Main street off Cave Creek pretty ratty (broken asphalt) and other streets super rough rock chip seal. Many overgrown trees and foliage in neighborhood. Spotty home quality as you head east and south. Some nice places nestled in with some not-so-nice (Steel buildings and old junky horse lots...) Whole area gives sense of "over grown" or "needing love.""
  • Janet M. M.
    "Great Area! Close to shopping, yet rural feel."
