Saguaro Forest at Desert Mountain is the most spectacular village. The master planned community of Desert Mountain Scottsdale consists of 32 individual villages. My favorite is the village of Saguaro Forest. It is the ONLY village in Desert Mountain with a guard gate. Homes in this village are not only protected by the main guard gated entry into the community but by their own guard gate called the Caretaker’s Cottage. All of the other villages have electronic gate access which makes this village the most exclusive and desirable.

This village is nestled into the Continental Mountains and is the farthest north of all of the villages in the community. The surroundings are absolutely beautiful with lot and lots of saguaro cactus and natural desert landscape. Homes in Saguaro Forest Scottsdale are typically on very large lots with amazing golf, mountain, city light, and sunset views. Saguaro Forest homeowners enjoy the close proximity to the Chiricahua Golf Course, Chiricahua Pro-Shop, Constantino’s Restaurant, and The Grill Restaurant.

As you know, Desert Mountain is comprised of 32 individual villages, each with its own personality. The Village of Saguaro Forest in Desert Mountain is best know for the incredible saguaro cactus that it is named after. There are so many saguaro cactus in this area it is quite jaw dropping. There is a National Forest south of Tucson called Saguaro National Park. I would have to say that Saguaro Forest in Desert Mountain is equally majestic as the Saguaro National Park. Living in Saguaro Forest Desert Mountain is like living in a national park. Every morning you wake up to views that are just unbelievable.

The Chiricahua Golf Course and Clubhouse are located in Saguaro Forest. The Clubhouse has the golf pro shop and two restaurants.

The pinnacle of the Desert Mountain dining experiences is Constantino’s restaurant in Saguaro Forest. The focal point inside Constantino’s restaurant is a two-story wine tower modeled from the original olive and grain tower of a Sardinian farmhouse. The tower holds more than 3,000 bottles of imported Italian wines, many from small vineyards that provide special selections to the club.  The focal point outside the restaurant is the spectacular view of the Chiricahua Golf Course and the twinking city lights beyond. Constantino’s has many balconies to enjoy the warm weather and breathtaking views. There is even a private balcony that can be reserved just for your party.

Within each of five dining rooms, distinctive touches, including a 900-year-old tapestry and antique chandeliers, add to the warm, romantic ambiance. The natural materials used – aged gray stone, reclaimed wood, brick, terra cotta, aged stucco, wrought iron, and copper are reminiscent of the Constantino family’s origins.

It is a place where you can bring your friends and celebrate life’s special occasions. On any given night, you will find Constantino’s full of members and their guests, happily lingering over something special and enjoying the fantastic views over the Chiricahua golf course.

Today the Desert Mountain Master Board and Management sent an email to all homeowners in Desert Mountain about certain problem properties in the community. As you may be aware, two homes in the community burned down and a few under construction were abandoned due to these economic times. The one which most members are aware of is Painted Sky, Lot 42, which is the home that burned down along the Apache Golf Course. It is most obvious due to its prime location on the golf fairway. The Desert Mountain HOA has been working to identify, monitor and remedy problem home sites in the Desert Mountain community. Each site will be handled differently based on situation.

The Desert Mountain Association filed a legal complaint against the owner of Painted Sky, Lot 42, seeking injunctive relief to either complete construction per the approved plans or to restore the lot to its original condition. Other “problem” properties have been foreclosed on and the HOA is requiring the new owners to cure defects. On a positive note, the home at Saguaro Forest, lot 178, which was destroyed by fire earlier this year while under construction (click here to see my previous blog about this home) will begin to rebuild soon.

It is great to see that the Desert Mountain Board is taking care of these situations to make sure that the community stays beautiful and remains the most prestigious community in Scottsdale. Many times in other neighborhoods these things are overlooked and could make a neighborhood look “run down”. Desert Mountain takes pride in the appearance of the neighborhood and is very serious about protecting your financial investment.
