Carefree Arizona
Clinging to the base of
Black Mountain, Carefree began as a planned
community in
the 1950's. With such streets as Eazy, Wampum Way,
and Ho and Hum Streets, Carefree is a laid-back town
amid desert landscape. One of the largest sundials
in the Western Hemisphere, an impressive 90 feet in
diameter, is found off Cave Creek Road.
The desert foothills
offer unique shopping, dining and provide a
beautiful spot to reside in the high Sonoran Desert.
Old gold mines, huge boulders, spectacular sunsets
and beautiful cactus gardens cover the landscape.
Golf is a very popular activity in this upscale
area. The unique design and integration of the
courses into the desert landscape and jagged hills
makes them a popular destination of the residents
and visitors alike.
Cave Creek is
located two miles north of Carefree Highway (Hwy.
74) on Cave Creek
Road, about 25 miles north of Phoenix. The
temperature is slightly cooler with even lower
humidity. This is truly a desert environment that
supports an endless variety of outdoor activities to
include hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking,
golf & tennis. The landscape is highlighted by the
natural beauty of the crested mountains and the
contrasting open desert with all varieties of
indigenous cacti.
A true sense of the 'Old
West', things move a little slower in Cave Creek,
now a haven for people looking to get away from the
hustle and bustle of the city. With several places
to stop and meet with other enthusiasts, it is also
an area that supports the 'Weekend Warrior'
motorcycle riders. Contrary to popular belief, this
is a well-behaved influence and welcomed by Cave
Creek merchants and residents alike.
