COVID 19 CHANGED EVERYTHING! Carefree (PW) As the world shuts down to avoid the spread of the pandemic, our life procedures certainly changed also. Arizona Governor Doug Ducey designated Realtors as an essential service and we received requests to see property, especially our remote and secure Golden Star Ranch in Cave Creek, which had recently been featured on TV. So we donned our masks and gloves and traveled in separate cars and maintained separation at the property!

Secret Ranch showcased on Fox10s "Cool House"
Cave Creek (PW) Its a hidden ranch near Cave Creek that is so secret, that unless you are there, you can ONLY see it from an airplane! We opened the private Golden Star Ranch, for Fox10's Syleste Rodriguez and crew, who came out and featured the property lately. The Golden Star was the site of the largest mining camp in the area in the late 1800s and has been held in private ownership for decades, but is now on the market. Its heavily shown to buyers who want a safe and secure sanctuary, especially with recent global health concerns. The ranch has rare artesian wells that pump out of the ground over 11,000 gallons of clear water a day. In addition, the huge stamp mill was donated to the Cave Creek Museum where it was reconstructed over a period of 3 years with 9,000 hours of volunteer work.
Its demonstrated several times a
month and you can get the schedule from the Cave Creek Museum
website. The amazing amount of water helps grow over 50
varieties of fruit and nut trees and flowers, in a virtual Garden of
Eden. Priced at $2.9 mil See a tour here:
Quiz Answer. . .
This amazing opening scene from a sci fi movie filmed on the Golden Star Ranch, shows a walled compound where the town of Cave Creek use to be. The movie is set 1,000 years in the future and was a big-budget pilot directed by Adrian Carr who did Crocodile Dundee. Carr liked the location and used the various cliffs and mine tunnels in the shoot.

Carefree (PW) A hotel that was originally slated to go into Cave Creek, is now under construction near the Sundial, in Carefree, and town leaders expect the new Hampton Inn hotel to be a major boon to local businesses. Developers held a groundbreaking ceremony for a Hampton Inn in downtown Carefree, according to the town’s Facebook page. The 97-room hotel is expected to open in late 2020 near the town’s landmark sundial and will serve as a long-sought "anchor" property for the village. Plans call for a pool and spa, meeting rooms, a fitness center and breakfast and bar seating. Scottsdale’s ProFab Construction is the contractor for the project, and Nebraska-based CFM Realty is the developer. Mayor Les Peterson took part in the ceremony along with representatives from the companies involved. The construction site is pictured below:
