An Arizona vacation is destined to be one that claims a permanent place in your heart offering a glimpse of the old west with a generous view of the modern and beautiful but even the hardiest of travelers may feel that an Arizona vacation is best saved for the winter months. We at Stay Porter can completely understand your concern over high temperatures and if you do decide to try it anyway, we offer a beautiful selection of homes and condos in the desert! All are air-conditioned and most feature a crystal clear pool for extra cooling options, but we also offer another way to enjoy our wild west home state with our newest selection of homes located in sunny and cool Flagstaff! This town in the pines rarely reaches temps higher than the mid-80s and at night, as the mercury drops, you may find yourself eagerly turning to the fireplaces that are in many of our Flagstaff vacation rentals, enjoying the romance, cheer, and additional warmth they provide!
Choose Stay Porter
As you begin your planning for your stay in our favorite mountain town, you may feel a bit overwhelmed at your housing options but just as we provide the best and most luxurious homes in the Phoenix Metropolitan area, our properties in Flagstaff are destined to impress! Choose Stay Porter and discover how we combine luxury, charm, and a friendly welcoming that makes every night the best one! Every property is different, styled according to the whims and interests of the homeowner, but all invite you to step inside, leave your troubles at the door, and fall into the comfort that you will never want to leave. Living rooms with plush furnishings and state-of-the-art televisions are the ideal spaces for impromptu naps, movie nights with the kids, or quiet moments best enjoyed with a good book, a great Arizona wine, and a fire roaring merrily.
The dining areas of our Flagstaff retreats are where families and friends will come together to laugh over dad jokes as they devour food prepared in the fully equipped kitchens located just steps away. These are the spaces where games will be played, plans will be made, and conversations will be had. In the kitchen, modern conveniences bring back the joy in cooking, and traditional charm and cheer ensure, that just as in your home, these rooms will be where everyone wants to hang out, snack, and perhaps share secrets and dreams that they feel uncomfortable doing in their busy real life at home.
Patios, decks, and balconies may look out onto the mountains that stand guard over our town, acres of pine trees, or in some instances, reveal the charm and beauty of the village that surrounds you. Barbecue grills are popular every season of the year, but in the summer months, the aromatic scents of the catch of the day (perhaps the ones you caught yourself during a fishing expedition to Upper Lake Mary) will have everyone salivating and gathering around the grill asking, “is it ready yet?”
The bedrooms of our Flagstaff homes are built for comfort, offering plush bedding topped with the softest of linens, some providing Smart TVs that will allow guests to fall asleep to their favorite streaming shows every night. If the one you choose does not have a tv, why not open the windows a bit and let the sounds of nighttime in Flagstaff lull you into a peaceful sleep? Perhaps a soak in a deep tub in the bathroom, accompanied by wine and a really good book is all you need for a night of sweet oblivion, or maybe your favorite Stay Porter Arizona escape will have a hot tub on the deck, letting guests simmer in the bubbles as they share secrets under an inky black sky dotted with the twinkling of a billion stars!
Your New Favorite Playground
Flagstaff is a college town that offers adventures of every kind. Winter visitors will surely thrill to spend their days on the slopes of Snowbowl (yes, we ski in Arizona) and summer visitors will fall in love with the ideal temperatures and beautiful landscape! Reach for the stars at Lowell Observatory or keep your feet firmly on terra firma as you sip wine from local wineries at FLG Terroir: Wine Bar & Bistro. Enjoy road trips to the mystical town of Sedona, located just 27 miles North of our favorite mountain town, or go exploring and step back into the far past with a visit to Montezuma Castle National Monument and learn all there is to know about the Sinagua people who made their homes in the cliffs for hundreds of years and then simply vanished without a trace. There is so much to see and do during your fabulous Flagstaff getaway and you will enjoy it, even more, when you come home to Stay Porter at the end of every day. Reserve your favorite today!
If you are interested in investing in real estate here in the Phoenix Valley, you cannot go wrong by choosing to purchase in Scottsdale. The Phoenix Valley’s market has never been better with the value of homes going up in the area. Many temporary residents of Scottsdale own a vacation property here in the city to get away from the cold and enjoy the warm weather of Arizona. Owning a vacation property when you do not live nearby can be difficult if you do not know who to trust for upkeep. This is where Porter comes in with our incredible property management services that will make it a breeze for you. Take a look at why it is now the perfect time to invest in Scottsdale real estate:
Property Management Services
As mentioned, it can be difficult handling any kind of upkeep for a vacation property if you do not live in the area. No one wants their homes to feel abandoned and attract dust inside. Instead, let our property management services help manage your property while you are away. This includes frequent cleaning of the property so it is ready to host you or any vacation guests at a moment’s notice. Our cleaning team makes sure the property is picked up from top to bottom, so you have nothing to worry about. Our property management services also include yard maintenance.

As you venture into the world of vacation rental ownership, you may be starting to feel a little overwhelmed at how long your “owner-do” list is becoming. You more than likely have a full-time job, a family, and would love to have a life you can enjoy, but all the little things your property needs are getting in the way of any fun you might be having! Fortunately, you found your way here to our Porter property management page, perhaps seeking a respite while still being able to enjoy the fruits of your investment, and we want to welcome you to the next stage in your life—you know, the one where we do the hard work and you sit back and relax? This guide to how our vacation rental property management team takes care of your biggest investment will help give you a peek into your carefree but still moneymaking future!
From the Beginning
The hard work starts almost from the moment you sign on the dotted line, and we at Porter will be right there, picking up the scrub brush and getting it done! Very few investment properties are in turnkey shape—that is how you got such a bargain on your Scottsdale home—and we know what needs to be done! After an intensive review of the space, we determine what needs to be cleaned, repaired, or simply thrown out and replaced by something new, so in most case it is our maintenance workers that will be the first team to get to work! Their job is simple: They make sure that air conditioners cool, that dishwashers wash, and those windows, roofs, and doors keep what is supposed to be outside out and what needs to stay indoors in! Perhaps the dingy walls can use a touch-up or maybe the that crumbling stucco needs to be repaired; whatever the problem, our maintenance team is going to find it, fix it, and field any questions you may have!
As If It Were Our Own
Now that the construction and maintenance part of our services have been completed, it is time to clean! Our initial cleaning services ensure that when the first tenants open the door, they will come into a home that is sparkling clean and sanitized to please even the pickiest of travelers. Treating your property as if it were our own and as if our mothers-in-law were about to visit, we follow all the latest CDC guidelines for sanitizing and disinfecting, much to the relief of your renters, and when the first guests start flocking to your doors, we continue our services between each visit. This clean as you go method keeps guests happy, clients satisfied, and your investment property in tip-top condition!
Sleep Like a Baby
The worst part of vacation home ownership is arguably the middle of the night phone calls. No matter how much we take care of your property, if something does break, spring a leak, stops making water hot, inevitably it is going to happen in the middle of the night. And when the phone calls begin, unless its of dire importance, you can continue to sleep peacefully while we take care of 2 AM emergency! Whatever happens, however, we will keep you in the loop.
Not Your Favorite Uncle
No matter how hard you try, there is no way to avoid the hand Uncle Sam is holding out, demanding his piece of your pie, and although we cannot keep you from paying your part, we can help with the process. Our experience as property manages means that we know our way around the forms that can actually be considered more painful than the assault on your bank account, and when you hire Porter for your property management needs, tax paperwork is just another part of our job! We know their importance, we understand their legalese, and we enjoy doing whatever we can to help make you a success.
Every Step of the Way
There are a million little details involved in creating a successful vacation rental, but choosing Porter is the first and more than likely most important step. We work hard to help make your Scottsdale investment property the most successful on the market, and even as you decide that you need to do some things on your own, we are behind you, the property owner, every step of the way. Your day-to-day life can be overwhelming as you try to cram too many activities in too few seconds, minutes, and hours, and while we can’t help you with angry bosses or school events, we can take off some of the pressure involved with your investment.
