I came to Carefree for the tea today, not the tee. ☕
Though really, I came for the company, a slow afternoon with my mother-in-law and her dear friend.
And the sweetest surprise? The tea room was honoring Dolly Parton today. Her whole songbook, all instrumental, playing softly over the china and the roses. Dolly, in a proper English tea room. Iconic. 🤠🫖
But sitting there, it hit me. This little pocket of the Valley is home to some of the most beautiful golf communities in the country. The Boulders is right up the road. Terravita, Tonto Verde, and Tatum Ranch are all a short drive.
Some of my clients dream about waking up on a championship course. Others just want to live near the charm, the tea rooms, the trails, the small-town Carefree feel, and play a round when the mood strikes. Both lifestyles are right here.
So whether you're fairway-front or near-the-charm, ask me anything about living out here: the golf, the neighborhoods, or where to get the best pot of Earl Grey. 🫖
👇 Which one are you: on the course, or near the charm?
