This is the perfect place for a "staycation." Ugh, I hate that I just used that term, but it is the correct one to use. Firesky is a beautiful resort, nice pool, service, rooms, and all. Very nice firepits and free wine, beer and other drinks during happy hour. I live in Phoenix, so it was a nice weekend away while still being near home. If I'm coming from out of town though I may want to stay somewhere a little more modern and swanky.
It's less than a $5 cab ride from Old Town Scottsdale, so in other words it's free. Are you a teacher? If so, check out their teacher discount offers. Pretty sweet deal.
