Location, location, location.Mine is on the edge of Scottsdale in North Phoenix, with king & queen beds, 5 bed 3 bath, pool, pets allowed, views of the mountains, safe neighborhood and easy drive to where the Superbowl is being played, the TPC where the golf tournament is, near spring training, near hospitals so families can have a place to stay when grandpa is having a splinter removed from his buttocks, near old town Scottsdale and near where everything is happening.

Long Pond, Lake Mascuppic, dont forget not to far from there about an hour to hour/half you have NH - Lake Winnipesauke and surrounding lakes which is a Summer and Winter attraction due to the Summer lodging, boating, Jetski's and the Annual Huge Ice Fishing tournament.

Should you find opportunity there, you might look into setting up your property to accommodate bass fisherman, especially tournament guys.
