    "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. "

    "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."

    "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.""
