Hotels & Resorts in Phoenix and Scottsdale

Life in Phoenix revolves around its two major influences - desert living and Native American culture. The capital of Arizona is also the capital of the American Southwest, in large part because of the magnificent nature that seems to ascend all the way to the endless sky. Experience the Arizona desert as the pioneers did - up close - by rafting or canoeing Phoenix’s rivers and lakes. For an even more laid-back feel, try fly-fishing these same waters – where the white bass in Lake Pleasant are huge, and both the Salt and Verde Rivers are stocked with rainbow trout.
