About the host
Hosted by Maryann Wolf
We’re Maryann and Ralph Wolf, the owners behind Wolf Retreats. What started with one vacation home has grown—somewhat unexpectedly!—into a collection of four distinctive Arizona properties that we personally own and operate.
We didn’t originally set out to build a vacation rental business. Along the way, we discovered that we genuinely enjoy creating homes where people can gather, relax and make memories. Maryann brings a background in healthcare technology and a love of design, details and the guest experience, while Ralph is the hands-on half of the team, helping manage, maintain and continually improve our properties.
One home led to another as we learned what guests value and kept asking ourselves, “What could we do to make this even better?” Our collection grew to include our Tempe home, two Scottsdale homes—Cottage Oasis and Pool House—and most recently, our mountain retreat in Flagstaff. Together, they became Wolf Retreats.
Each home has its own personality and experience. We don’t believe in creating cookie-cutter vacation rentals. Instead, we work to make each property fit its setting while providing the comfort, thoughtful amenities and little extras we would want when traveling ourselves.
Double Retreat came about in a particularly unusual way: Cottage Oasis and Pool House are located directly across the street from one another. Offering them together allows larger families and groups to vacation together while still enjoying the space and privacy of two complete homes.
Although our portfolio has grown, our approach hasn’t changed. These aren’t anonymous properties managed from afar. We remain personally involved in our homes and are always adding, improving and fine-tuning.
We hope our guests can feel that difference—and, most importantly, have a wonderful place to reconnect with the people who matter to them.
Welcome to Wolf Retreats.
— Maryann & Ralph
Why they chose this property
We love this neighborhood because it offers something that's increasingly difficult to find in Scottsdale: a peaceful residential setting with incredible access to everything that makes Scottsdale and the surrounding Valley such a great destination.
The Scottsdale Greenbelt is just a couple of blocks away, offering miles of paths for walking, running and biking. Nearby Chaparral Park and Lake provide even more outdoor recreation, with golf, tennis and pickleball all close by.
Scottsdale is a golfer's paradise, with an incredible selection of courses throughout the area. For those who prefer the trails, some of the Valley's best hiking and desert scenery are within easy reach, including Camelback Mountain, the McDowell Sonoran Preserve and Papago Park.
Old Town Scottsdale and Scottsdale Fashion Square are just minutes away, with an amazing selection of restaurants, shopping, nightlife, galleries and entertainment. You'll also be conveniently located for Spring Training, Talking Stick, Topgolf, OdySea Aquarium, Butterfly Wonderland and many of Scottsdale's most popular attractions.
Our central location also makes it easy to explore beyond Scottsdale. With convenient access to the Loop 101 and major Valley routes, you can easily reach Phoenix, Tempe, Mesa and other parts of the Valley—whether you're heading to a sporting event, concert, hiking trail, golf course, airport or another Arizona adventure.
What we especially love is being able to enjoy all of this without staying in the middle of a busy tourist district. The neighborhood is established and residential, with mature landscaping, real yards and nearby parks. At the end of the day, you can come home to your own private pools, grassy backyards and patios and simply relax.
What makes this property unique
Pool House Scottsdale by Wolf Retreats is designed to make the house itself part of the vacation. With a private pool offering optional heating, a large real-grass backyard, multiple outdoor gathering areas, games, and a dedicated Media Room, there’s plenty to do without ever leaving home.
What really sets the property apart is how well it works for families and groups. Two separate living areas let everyone gather together or enjoy different activities at the same time. The Media Room features a 55-inch 4K Smart TV, Xbox One Digital, twin sleeper ottoman, privacy screen, and two powered recliners that recline nearly flat. Additional portable beds and flexible spaces give groups more options for sleeping and privacy beyond the home’s 3 traditional bedrooms.
Outdoors, the private block-walled backyard offers a lush green lawn that’s increasingly hard to find in Scottsdale, along with the pool, covered 40-foot patio, outdoor dining, lounge seating, BBQ, pool basketball, toys and floats. A doggy door leading to the secure yard makes the home especially convenient for guests traveling with approved dogs.
Inside, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen, three dining areas, two dedicated workspaces, fast 1 Gig fiber Wi-Fi, three Smart TVs, games, and thoughtful amenities for both short visits and longer stays.
And then there’s the location: a quiet residential neighborhood approximately 1 mile from Old Town Scottsdale and Fashion Square, close to the Scottsdale Greenbelt, Chaparral Park, golf, Spring Training, Talking Stick, restaurants and entertainment.
It’s a home where you can swim, play, work, gather, spread out, bring the dog, or simply relax in the Arizona sunshine—while having Scottsdale right outside your door.
