History of Old Town Scottsdale
Before Scottsdale was ever Scottsdale, the area originally belonged to the Pima people. In 1888, U.S. Army Chaplain Winfield Scott purchased 640 acres in the Salt River Valley as he saw the potential of using the land for agricultural purposes. Scottsdale was named after Scott in 1894, and later became incorporated in 1951 and adopted the slogan “The West’s Most Western Town.” What was once a quiet settlement transformed into a cultural and commercial hub thanks to the growth of tourism, the development of art galleries, and Scottsdale’s reputation as a luxury destination. Today, Old Town is known for its walkable streets lined with boutique shops, eclectic art, historic architecture, and a bustling food and nightlife scene—all while still preserving its Old West heritage.
Old Town Historic Landmarks
Little Red Schoolhouse
The Little Red Schoolhouse, originally known as Scottsdale Grammar School, was built in 1909 to replace Scottsdale’s first schoolhouse, built in 1896. Little Red Schoolhouse has served as the Scottsdale City Hall and Justice Court, the Scottsdale Public Library, and the Scottsdale Chamber of Commerce. Today, Little Red Schoolhouse is known as the Scottsdale Historical Museum and takes visitors along on a journey through Scottsdale’s history with photographs, artifacts, and more.

Update Your Listing to Emphasize Scottsdale’s Winter Appeal
When choosing a vacation destination, snowbirds seek more than just a rental—they want a place that feels like a seasonal home, and your listing should reflect that. Take some time to spruce up your property description so guests can imagine themselves staying in your Scottsdale home for an extended winter stay. Use words that evoke warmth and relaxation, like “sun-soaked getaway” or “perfect for winter relaxation.” Think of your words as painting a picture, inviting guests to imagine themselves unwinding on a sunny patio with a morning coffee or lounging by a heated pool in the afternoon.
Updating your photos is another simple yet impactful way to improve your listing. In Scottsdale’s winter, the sun is softer, and the desert landscapes are vibrant, so capture and showcase that beauty. In your photo carousel, highlight outdoor areas of your property with luxury amenities, such as a private pool or hot tub, sunlit patios, and inviting backyard spaces. You could also add a photo or two of nearby hiking trails or scenic spots like Camelback Mountain or lush golf courses, noting that outdoor activities are especially enjoyable in the cooler winter weather. If you’re aiming for a big impact, investing in a professional photographer can make those first, all-important impressions even stronger!
Make Your Scottsdale Rental Snowbird-Friendly
Snowbirds and seasonal travelers tend to be older, often retired, and have the means to spend more time away from home, so it’s essential that your property is fully equipped for an extended stay. Investing in quality, comfortable furniture and adding touches like plush throws and pillows helps create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Stocking your kitchen with essentials and cookware—pots, pans, a blender, and basic spices—will allow guests to cook comfortably, a feature that all guests, not just snowbirds, will appreciate in the long run.
Accessibility is also a big plus. Snowbirds especially value features like walk-in showers and ground-level entryways, and even small additions like non-slip mats or grab bars can make your space feel more accommodating. To truly enhance the experience, consider leaving a printed guidebook filled with recommendations for dining, activities, and attractions in Scottsdale. Helping guests with local recommendations can make vacation planning more seamless and enjoyable, increasing the likelihood of repeat stays.
Highlight Amenities Offered at Your Scottsdale Vacation Rental
Amenities can truly set your property apart from the competition. Your home should already include essentials like WiFi, linens, TVs with streaming capabilities, and kitchen basics—but why stop there? Take your property further and elevate the guest experience with amenities like private heated pools, hot tubs, stunning views, and pet-friendly options. These extras not only transform your property into the perfect winter retreat but can also turn first-time guests into loyal, repeat customers.
Showcase Scottsdale’s Winter Attractions
Part of Scottsdale’s charm lies in the endless activities it offers during the winter months, so make sure to mention these in your property listing and in that handy guidebook. From world-renowned golf courses to breathtaking hiking trails, winter in Scottsdale is a dream for those who love the outdoors.

Things to Do in Scottsdale AZ for Couples
Outdoor Fun
Hiking
If you enjoy the outdoors, there are fantastic hiking trails in the Scottsdale area to explore. The moderately challenging hike up Camelback Mountain offers stunning panoramic views of the city and surrounding desert landscape. If Camelback feels too intense, consider an easier hike like Pinnacle Peak Trail for spectacular desert views without as much elevation gain. After your hike, you might want to go grab a beer at a nearby brewery (try Pinnacle Brewing near Pinnacle Peak, or OSHO Brewing near Camelback), or spend the afternoon poolside at your vacation rental, soaking up the sun and resting your muscles.
Hot Air Balloon Ride
Catch a sunrise or sunset while on a hot air balloon ride over the Sonoran Desert. Float above the desert landscape and take in the spectacular 360° views drenched in golden hour colors. GoodNight Stay has a special partnership with Rainbow Ryders, the largest and most established hot air balloon company in the Southwest – make sure to contact them for exclusive pricing on a hot air balloon adventure. The birds-eye view from a hot air balloon is a unique and romantic experience to share with your loved one while in Scottsdale.
Desert Adventures
Experience the desert landscape up close with a tour of the trails through Tonto National Forest. Step into the romance of the Old West with a horseback trail ride through the desert and meander along the scenic trails at a leisurely pace. Or if horseback riding isn’t your thing, head out on a UTV Tour, where you can fly through the dirt trails with a guide to show you all the best spots.
Stargazing
The clear Arizona skies and the desert’s lack of light pollution make stargazing a peaceful way to spend an evening with your significant other. You can likely see a fair amount of stars from your vacation rental, or you could join a guided stargazing tour at nearby dark sky areas like McDowell Mountain Regional Park, where experts will help you spot constellations and learn more about the night sky.
Relaxation
Scottsdale Couple Massages
Indulge in a day of pampering with your loved one at one of Scottsdale’s world-class spas. Luxurious day spas at The Phoenician and Fairmont Scottsdale Princess offer couples packages that include side-by-side massages, aromatherapy treatments, and access to amenities like plunge pools, saunas and steam rooms to rejuvenate you and your loved one. An IV session is another great way to relax and recover from desert activities. Check out Revitalize Mobile IV, one of GoodNight Stay’s exclusive partners for our vacation rental guests.
