I had a wonderful stay at the Carefree Resort & Villas. It is nice sometimes to drive the 30 min. to carefree and feel like you are out of town on vacation. It is that much of a departure from busy city life.
The resort is beautiful. From the instant you walk in you are swept in to a southwest retreat. The sitting area in the lobby is stunning with a fireplace and nice couches/chairs to relax. Great rooms, we stayed in the Sonoran Villas. They are decorated in traditional southwest style. I did not have a chance to go to the pool, it was nice, but I've seen better.
There was a bar setup near the pool, which was convenient. We tried the Red Horse Saloon restaurant located in the resort. The decor was nice, again keeping theme with the southwest style. I was very pleased with the food here and good drinks.
Next time we need a quick getaway I will be sure to book a weekend stay here.
