Summary:
Worth the Wait Ranch is a relic of AZ history that lives like a modern resort. This ranch was built in 1918, making it the oldest home in N. Phoenix. Then, in 2021 it was transformed by renowned designer, Anthony W Design, into his personal sanctuary. This architectural masterpiece sits on 1.3 acres, has a huge backyard & endless amenities (ie indoor Pickle Ball!). The pool area is shared with the Casitas (available to rent separately) & has a mini golf course, fire pit, billiards & more!

The Space:
Bedrooms 1 & 2 are a "dual-suite," meaning they are technically 2 bedrooms in one. There are 2 separate sleeping quarters (both with King size beds) that share a large bathroom and living room (with a TV). This suite is perfect for a family or maybe a couple who prefer separate beds. The suite also features a bidet and a private outdoor tub and shower. The secondary room has an additional sink, vanity, closet, and a full bookshelf! Note- the shared bathroom is an open-concept, however the toilet room has a door and the shower has a privacy screen.

Bedroom 3 has bunk beds with a Queen on the bottom and a Twin XL on top, and an ensuite bathroom.

Bedroom 4 has bunk beds with a Queen on the bottom and a Twin XL on top, and a Jack & Jill bathroom shared with bedroom 5. This bedroom has a changing table and the bathroom has a tub, making it the ideal room for a family with a baby.

Bedroom 5 has bunk beds with a Queen on the bottom and a Twin XL on top, and a Jack & Jill bathroom shared with bedroom 4. This bedroom can also be used as a separate living room and/or gym! This large room can completely open up to the kitchen and features lounge seating, a 75" TV, Peloton Treadmill , Peloton Bike, an 8x10 exercise mat, and more!

Bedroom 6 is a mother-in-law suite that has a King bed, bathroom (with Bidet), dining table, TV, kitchenette and a private entrance into the garage.

There are 3 additional air mattresses with bedding available.

The Living Room has a huge built in leather sectional and an 85” TV.

The separate Family Room has another large sectional that sits next to the ping-pong table in front of a wall of floor to ceiling windows.

The Dining Table is 13 feet long and sits in front of a wall of glass that opens up to the backyard. The table sits 14, and there is also a separate kitchen table that seats another 4.

The outdoor kitchen has a 36” charcoal grill, beverage fridge, sink, and a 6 foot dining table.

The private backyard is large, almost entirely grass and perfect for Bocci Ball or Cornhole.

Beyond the private backyard is the Pool area. This area is shared with two casitas that are on the other side of the property (available to rent separately). It features a miniature golf course, fire pit, outdoor living room, outdoor dining, and outdoor billiards table. All of this sits under a canopy of lights making functional all the time.

The Garage is a finished space (soon to get AC) with 24 foot ceilings and a canopy of lights making it perfect for events. There's also Pickle Ball net (there aren’t any lines as it is not quite long enough to be a full size court). *No parking in the garage without prior approval.

For safety and neighborhood compliance, the property includes exterior cameras and privacy-safe noise sensors (no audio recording).

A short-form rental agreement is required to complete your stay. This agreement restates the house rules, liability terms, and local compliance requirements. Guests who decline to sign may have their reservation subject to cancellation at the host’s discretion.

Please contact prior to booking for any events, gatherings or commercial use, as additional fees apply.

This home is for registered guests only. Unauthorized gatherings, parties, or excessive noise may result in immediate termination of the stay without refund and additional charges.

There are 3 rentable spaces at Worth the Wait Ranch. In addition to The Manor, there are 2 additional Casitas. The first (TeeBox) is a 3bed/3bath with a max occupancy of 5 guests. The second is Smurf Haus and it's a 4 bed/2bath with a max occupancy of 7. This is important to note since the pool area is shared with the casitas. If you prefer exclusive use of the pool area, please inquire about the fee to block the casita rentals during the duration of your stay (subject to availability).

There is a large parking lot that services all areas of the property, but each space is completely enclosed ensuring privacy for all guests.

There is a landscape company that uses the parking lot to store their trucks. They come everyday (besides Sunday) at 7am to pick up their trucks and return them in the afternoon.

Landscapers typically perform lawn care on the entire property on Tuesday afternoons, and pool care is performed on Friday mornings, however these times are subject to change. If this is a concern, please contact prior to your check-in date.

The property is equipped with privacy-safe noise and occupancy sensors (Minut/NoiseAware) located in common indoor areas and/or outdoor spaces. These devices do not record sound or conversations; they only measure decibel levels and motion to help prevent parties and protect the property.

The owner lives on-site in a separate third casita located on the same property. The guest spaces are entirely private, and the owner doesn't interact with guests unless requested or required (for maintenance, deliveries, or emergencies).

A short-form rental agreement is required to complete your stay. This agreement restates the house rules, liability terms, and local compliance requirements. Guests who decline to sign may have their reservation subject to cancellation at the host’s discretion.

Interaction with Guests:
Beyond the pool area there are 3 casitas. Two of them are available to rent separately and the owner lives in the third. The owner is often available if assistance is needed, otherwise he gives guests total privacy.
