Cave Creek Arizona
Cave Creek is a former mining and ranching town just west of Carefree in northern Maricopa County. The town was incorporated in 1986; its population jumped more than 27% between 1990 and 2000, and today is put at close to 4,000. Because it is situated at an elevation of 2,500 feet, the town is generally about eight degrees cooler than locations in the Valley of Phoenix.
Cave Creek offers country/ranch living in a desert community where residents can ride horses on unpaved roads through tall saguaro cactus or share a morning walk with jackrabbits and lizards.
The 2.9 million-acre Tonto National Forest just north of the town provides spectacular views and endless recreational opportunities. Locals and tourists alike enjoy horseback riding, biking, hiking, jeep tours, balloon rides - and golf. Rancho Manaòa Golf Resort and Spa, a semi-public course in the hills of Cave Creek, blends a challenging par 71 course with spectacular high desert scenery.
Downtown Cave Creek is a half-mile stretch of shops, galleries and restaurants that reflect both the town's mining past and its artistic present. Starting in October, the town hosts a series of art festivals, rodeos and events, culminating in a spring Fiesta Days Parade.
Single-family homes in Cave Creek can start around $260,000 and go up to well over $600,000. Large lots, low-density development and breathtaking mountain views aren't hard to find. At the higher end, upscale horse properties that include a barn, dressage area and tack and feed area are priced from $850,000.
Golf course living is available at Rancho Manaòa where a resale custom home can start at about $280,000 and a custom home site can be purchased for between $90,000 and $150,000+.
