Finding Christmas Magic in Scottsdale, Arizona

Alli Talley

February 26, 2020

What we’re about to say may be controversial, but after a long weekend in Scottsdale, Arizona, we’re now convinced this is true. Are you ready for it?

Not every holiday getaway needs to have snow.

There, we said it. While sure, a “white Christmas” is dreamy and all, there is something equally magical about Scottsdale during the holiday season. This desert town comes alive in the prettiest (and oftentimes quirkiest ways), and it absolutely stole our hearts. No gloves or snowboots required!

Here’s our Scottsdale Holiday Hit List that’s bound to have you already planning your 2020 holiday vacation.

COACH HOUSE TAVERN

Not only is Coach House Tavern known for being Scottsdale’s oldest tavern, but they’re also known for taking Christmas lights REALLY seriously. Like, you can’t believe your eyes seriously. Our mouths were dropped from the moment we approached the tavern, and exploring the inside made us even more impressed. Every square inch is decorated with colorful Christmas lights - it’s truly something to witness. Order a drink (or two) at the bar, pull up a stool, and make some friends. See ya there next year?

The coolest Christmas bar we’ve EVER seen!

CHRISTMAS AT THE PRINCESS

You can’t visit Scottsdale during the holiday season without a visit to Christmas At The Princess, the iconic Christmas experience at the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess. The spacious and stunning resort is transformed into a winter wonderland, complete with light shows, ice skating, festive rides, treats, characters, and SO much more! There’s even an area called “S’mores Land”, complete with s’mores making kits and cozy campfires. It’s a Christmas lovers dream!

CHRISTMAS TOUR WITH JOYRIDESAZ

What better way to admire Scottsdale’s Christmas decor and holiday charm than by a guided golf cart tour? The friendly folks at JoyRidesAZ make every single tour unique and so much fun. Interested in wine tasting? They’ll take you to the best tasting rooms in Old Town! Fascinated by the history of Scottsdale? They’ll take you to some must-see landmarks. Looking for that perfect backdrop for your next Instagram post? They know the best photo spots (and are amazing photographers too)! We had a blast adventuring through town with them, and some of our favorite pictures from our trip were taken by the JoyRidesAZ crew. It’s absolutely a must-do!

We loved seeing Scottsdale by golf cart!

JoyRidesAZ took us to all the best spots!

MCCORMICK STILLMAN RAILROAD PARK

One of the most quintessential holiday experiences in Scottsdale is the Holiday Lights train ride at the quaint McCormick Stillman Railroad Park. Riders of all ages can take in a joyous array of lights, music, and dazzling displays… and for only $5 per person, it’s quite a steal! After the train ride, make sure to check out their on-site Scottsdale Railroad Museum, which brings the history of railroads to life!

SHOPPING IN OLD TOWN SCOTTSDALE

Old Town Scottsdale is charming no matter the time of year, but it’s truly something special at Christmastime. The streets are strung with colorful lights, the shops are decorated with charming displays, and everyone’s abuzz with holiday cheer. We recommend walking the streets in the late afternoon, with a cup of hot cocoa or a peppermint mocha in-hand. Then, grab an early dinner at one of the many delicious restaurants nearby.

Maybe we should make this an annual holiday tradition?

The holidays may be over, but that doesn’t mean it’s too early to start planning for Christmas 2020. (And if you’re anything like us, anticipating your next holiday getaway is part of the fun!) We can’t recommend Scottsdale enough, and we can’t wait to return next year… with our little one in tow!

With the new year comes new opportunities for weekend escapes. We’re always on the hunt for fun, quick, and easy getaways - and since our holiday trip to Scottsdale back in early December, it’s moved up to the top of our travel list. Scottsdale has it all - sprawling hotels and resorts, a booming culinary scene, picture-perfect scenery, world-class shopping, outdoor adventures… and did we mention a booming culinary scene? We’d go back to Scottsdale just for the food!

Scottsdale is understatedly cool, and that’s exactly why we like it. Plan a trip during the summer – their off-season (May-September) – and you’ll find slamming deals on hotels. (We’re talking 60% off peak season rates!) Need we say more?

Oh ya, and here’s where WE think you should stay, eat, and explore if you just need a quick 48-hour retreat...

STAY:

Andaz Scottsdale Resort and Bungalows

Overlooking Camelback Mountain, this modern and welcoming oasis couldn’t be more picturesque - or more luxurious! The bungalow style rooms are spacious and filled with amenities, from complimentary drinks and snacks to cozy robes and a shower that’s bigger than our entire bathroom at home!

The property itself is stunning, with perfectly maintained courtyards, a jaw-dropping pool area, and an inviting lobby that’s thoughtfully decorated with local art. In fact, all of the rooms have artwork from local artists - and you can even go on a free art tour of the property during your stay!

Sally loved exploring the property, but loved naps even more…

Colorful grounds of the Andaz Scottsdale

AFTERNOON:

After you’re all checked in and settled, spend the rest of the day shopping and meandering around Old Town Scottsdale. From charming boutiques to trendy coffee shops to family-owned wine tasting rooms, there’s something for everyone - and enough to keep one entertained for hours! Some of our favorite spots include:

Cricket and Ruby: It’s no secret we’re in full on “baby mode” over here, so we were thrilled to find this adorable little children's boutique. They even have some cute bohemian-chic “Mamma and Me” sets that Alli was eyeing… she could have easily bought the entire store!

Cartel Coffee Lab: We sometimes plan our Arizona adventures around this trendy and downright delicious coffee shop. Their baristas are friendly and knowledgeable, and their coffee is strong and full of flavor - it’s the perfect afternoon pick me up!

The Plant Store: Finally a shop the two of us could agree on! This perfectly Iinstagrammable and airy space is filled with beautifully curated cacti, succulents, and house plants, and there’s even an area where you can pot your own!

Leela Market: Filled to the brim with playful gifts, Arizona-themed accessories and decor, and even some stylish women’s wear, this is THE place to souvenir shop. It’s “Desert Luxe” at its finest!

EVENING:

End the night at The Mission, a modern Latin restaurant that’s bursting with flavor and sophistication. The atmosphere is stylish and elegant, and yet casual and inviting all in one… and the food. Oh, we could write a whole blog about the many mind-blowing dishes at The Mission. They’re incredible.

From the tableside guacamole (we both agree it’s the best guacamole we’ve ever had - and we’ve had a LOT of guacamole), to the crispy pork belly with a cola lime glaze, to the tacos made on hand-pressed corn tortillas, to the mouthwatering desserts… you’ll be tempted to order one of everything. We did, and we had zero regrets.

Oh and of course, no trip to The Mission is complete without a margarita (or two). You can’t go wrong with The Mission Margarita (add grand marnier for a real treat), and if you’re feeling adventurous, we highly recommend the Aguacate. It’s an avocado margarita that will have you wondering why you hadn’t thought of this combination sooner.

Make a reservation in advance, as they are known to fill up quick. And most importantly, COME HUNGRY.

MORNING:

We can’t think of a better way to work off your big dinner than a sunrise hike at the Gateway Loop Trailhead in the McDowell Sonoran Preserve. We suggest arranging a guide with REI Co-op Experiences, who will not only take you to and from the preserve, but will also lead you along the trail, sharing fascinating facts about the plants and wildlife you encounter, and give an insightful look into Arizona’s rich history. This guided experience was one of the highlights of our trip, hands down!

If you’re anything like us, at this point you’ve worked up an appetite. Farm & Craft serves healthy and sustainable food, with a seasonal wellness menu, kombucha on tap, and all ingredients are gluten free, hormone free, and organic. Their breakfast menu is as hearty as it is healthy, with some of our favorites being the Egg White Scramble and The Breakfast Sandwich. If you’re feeling like something sweet, try their Acai Bowl!

Planning our route on the Sonoran Preserve Trails!

AFTERNOON:

There’s no lack of activities in Scottsdale, but one of our favorite things to do when we’re there is to set aside some time to relax and enjoy the hotel amenities. So we suggest doing exactly that.

If the weather is nice (which it most likely will be), spend the afternoon at The Andaz’s spacious and alluring pool. If you find yourselves hungry for a light bite, dine at their on-site restaurant Weft and Warp. Or cozy up in your private bungalow and take a nap on the feathery-bed… Hey, nothing says “vacation” like doing nothing!

EVENING:

If you’re beginning to notice a “foodie theme” to this itinerary, you’ve caught us. The culinary scene in Scottsdale is so advanced and wide-spread, we can’t help but revolve a good chunk of this getaway around dining!

That being said, book a reservation at Toro Scottsdale, where Pan-Latin cuisine takes the stage, bringing together inspiration from Latin America, Japanese, and Peruvian-Chinese influences. It’s a melting pot of flavor that’s unlike anything we’ve had before… and it blew us away. (Where else can you order empanadas and sushi?!) They also have the Valley’s largest selection of rums - over 111, and their skilled bartenders make a daiquiri that will have even the most skeptical drinkers singing its praises.

MORNING:

You can’t visit Scottsdale without an indulgent (and creative) breakfast at Hash Kitchen. It’s a must. We realized we were in for a treat the moment we walked in and saw the build-your-own bloody mary bar (Arizona’s largest) and heard the people in the booth next to us raving about the Cannoli Donuts. While the HK Hashes are their specialty, you can’t go wrong with anything on their extensive menu - try their Cereal Shooter Flight for breakfast cocktails like you’ve never had before!

After you’re fed and happy, take an Instagrammable (and educational) golf cart tour around Scottsdale with our friends Kirk and Monica from JoyRridesAZ! They’ll customize your tour based on your interests, and make plenty of stops for photos, exploration, and even wine tasting! After a few hours with this dynamic husband and wife duo, we were convinced that the best way to see Scottsdale is by golf cart… and we have a feeling you’ll be hooked too! (Plus, they’re expert photo takers - some of our favorite pictures from the trip were taken by Monica!)

Too much good stuff in this photo… we loved Hash Kitchen!

Loved finding the best photo spots in Scottsdale!

Monica from JoyRidesAZ knew all the angles :)

AFTERNOON:

Stop for lunch at Hula’s Modern Tiki, an urban twist on the classic tiki bars of the 50’s and 60’s, right in the heart of Old Town Scottsdale. Sip on mai tais, snack on their famous Crispy Coconut Shrimp Rolls, and pig out (literally) on Duke’s Luau Pork Plate. It’s a taste of Hawaii in the desert, and it’s fun for the whole ohana!

Just half a mile down the road is the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art, a visually compelling and uniquely curated collection of art, architecture, and design. Many of the compelling exhibits are interactive, and all of them will inevitably cause you to see the world a little differently.

Hula’s had amazing food and tasty drinks!

Enjoying the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art

EVENING:

It’s your last night in Scottsdale, so why not go all out? The Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort & Spa offers a Wine Me, Dine Me dinner at SWB, their southwest bistro. This culinary experience has guests dining on an exclusive, made to order, four-course dinner prepared by Chef Joe and his incredibly talented team. They have nightly seatings at 6:00 and 8:00pm, and paired with the menu are specialty glasses of tequila and wine. Guests sit at a bar overlooking the open kitchen, and get a first-hand look as each course is created. If you consider yourself a “foodie”, this experience is a must!

Wine Me, Dine Me will bring out the foodie in you! Enjoy!

MORNING:

End your Scottsdale getaway with coffee and a light breakfast at one of our favorite local spots, Maverick Coffee. Located in an unassuming strip mall, you’ll wonder why we sent you here… until you step inside and see that this place is buzzing (both literally and figuratively) and that the food and coffee is top-notch. Try their avocado toast or breakfast burrito, and wash it down with the Kyoto Cold Brew or their Bullet Proof Coffee!

48 HOURS IN CARSON VALLEY

Alli Talley

February 25, 2020

Nevada, Weekenders, USA

There’s nothing we love more than discovering cities and towns that intrigue and inspire us. Last year we spent two nights in Carson Valley, Nevada with our pup Sally (you can read more about it here), and we couldn’t get enough. We decided we needed to return to Carson Valley at least one more time before the baby comes, and we’re SO glad we did. It’s the kind of place that feels remote, but is surprisingly easy to get to. It’s 20 minutes from Tahoe (SO close to the slopes!), 45 minutes from Reno, and Carson City is an easy 15 minutes away. Yet Carson Valley feels refreshingly off-the-map… and that’s exactly why we like it.

Here’s what we did this time around, and what we think you should do too (especially if you only have 48 hours to spare).

AFTERNOON

Check into the Carson Valley Inn :: Located in the heart of Minden, The Carson Valley Inn and Casino is the perfect home base for all of your Carson Valley adventures. They have everything - from spacious rooms, to nightly entertainment, a luxe indoor pool and spa, restaurants, and of course… a state of the art casino! Spend your afternoon leisurely exploring and enjoying the facilities, and why not try your hand at blackjack?

EVENING

Dinner at Khristopher’s Cafe :: This cozy Italian eatery is a favorite among Carson Valley locals, and with one bite of their homemade spaghetti, it’s easy to see why! Khristopher’s Cafe has a menu that is extensive and delectably hearty, with daily specials and a killer happy hour that’s not to be missed! (Save room for tiramisu!)

Kristopher’s Cafe sits in beautiful downtown Minden!

MORNING

Early Morning Coffee at DST Coffee :: Pop into one of our favorite coffee shops in the valley, DST Coffee, for an early morning oat milk latte or a refreshing cold brew… and if you’re hungry, try one of their delicious breakfast burritos!

Birding with JT Humphrey :: Ask anyone in Carson Valley if they’ve heard the name JT Humphrey, and chances are they have. This guy is a local legend when it comes to spotting, photographing, and protecting the wildlife in the area. He’s a horse whisperer and an expert bald eagle spotter - so spending a morning with him is an absolute must! JT took us on a quest to see bald eagles, golden eagles, barn owls, blue herons, numerous kinds of hawks, and many, many others. On our last trip to Carson Valley, we spent a morning viewing wild horses (read about it here). JT knows wildlife! You can contact JT here to arrange a tour!

AFTERNOON

Lunch at Cafe Girasole :: Open only for lunch, Cafe Girasole is the place to go for handcrafted sandwiches, soups, salads, paninis, and more. Their menu is loaded with fresh and healthy options, including the infamous “Iron Mike”! It’s a protein-rich veggie sandwich that features a surprising twist… peanut butter! And it’s REALLY GOOD.

Tour the Dangberg Home Ranch Historic park :: One of the most influential and iconic families in Carson Valley’s history was the Dangberg’s. Arriving in the 1850s, the family was not only crucial in growing the ranching and agriculture business in Carson Valley, but they also founded the town of Minden! Touring the Dangberg Home Ranch Historic Park is like walking through a time capsule, with many personal belongings and items that have been passed down generation after generation! To learn more and schedule a tour, visit here.

There’s peanut butter in there. And it’s delicious!

Fascinated by this 19th century passport!

EVENING

Cooking class at Sierra Chef :: Roll up your sleeves and get ready for a culinary adventure that you won’t soon forget - the cooking classes at Genoa’s Sierra Chef are a must-do! We suggest calling ahead of time and arranging a private class, where you can learn how to make anything from Asian stir-fry dishes to homemade pasta! (We highly recommend pasta-making, it was phenomenal!) See the 2020 class calendar here.

Late Night Dip at Walley’s Hot Springs Resort :: After your cooking lesson, enjoy a relaxing and peaceful evening at the nearby Walley’s Hot Springs Resort. These historic hot springs are not only soothing and healing, but they boast some incredible mountain views as well. There’s also eucalyptus steam rooms, saunas, locker rooms, and a pool for guests enjoyment as well!

After pasta making, a hot spring soak is ideal…

MORNING

Breakfast at Cowboy’s Cafe :: If you’ve ever wondered what a cowboy eats for breakfast, come to Cowboy’s Cafe and see for yourself! Known for their hearty chicken fried steak and finger-lickin’ biscuits and gravy, this is the kind of place where diets go out the window. And for good reason - it’s all delicious! (And you might need a nap after!)

Bently Distillery Tour :: Gin, vodka, and whiskey lovers, this is the place for you! We’re such big fans of Carson Valley’s Bently Distillery that we dedicated an entire blog to it (read more here), but regardless, their one-hour distillery tour is fantastic. You’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at their stills, bottling line, and barreling room - and you’ll even get to sample their premium spirits in their stunning new tasting room! Tours run Thursday-Sunday, and you can sign up for them here.

Of course Bobby got the Chicken Fried Steak and gravy…

Fascinating distillery tour! Can’t wait for the whisky!

AFTERNOON

Lunch at Cook’d :: After your tour, head on over to Cook’d for lunch, where they serve everything from tacos to burgers to mouth watering pizzas! Their menu is fresh and made to order, and we love the fun and casual atmosphere. Order a “Frozen Tumbleweed” for a real Cook’d treat!

Antique shopping :: Maybe it’s Carson Valley’s rich history, or maybe it’s their creative and eclectic residents, but whatever the reason, the antiquing here is next level. There are countless shops filled with vintage collectables, furniture, and decor, but two of our favorites are Cheshire Antiques and Red Barn Antiques. One can easily spend an entire afternoon browsing and exploring these two spots… and that’s exactly what we think you should do!

We love doing a little antique treasure hunting…

EVENING

Dinner at CV Steak :: What better way to end your trip than with a fancy steak dinner at CV Steak, Carson Valley Inn’s stunning steakhouse? From their signature table-side tossed salad, to their famous au gratin style potatoes, to their tantalizing steaks and chops… it’s undoubtedly one of the best meals in the valley. We’re drooling just thinking about it!

Did we miss any of your Carson Valley favorites? Leave a comment and let us know!

WHY BENTLY RANCH AND DISTILLERY SHOULD BE ON YOUR RADAR

Alli Talley

February 25, 2020

Nevada, USA, Foodies

Beneath the Sierra Nevada Mountains is a 50,000 acre ranch unlike any other. A ranch that’s full of thriving natural resources, innovation, technology, and promise. It’s a ranch that’s sure to put Carson Valley on the map, and we’re excited to say that you heard it here first.

Just a couple weeks ago we had the honor of touring Bently Ranch and Distillery, and we were completely blown away by what these folks are up to. Here’s what we discovered:

THE RANCH

Bently Ranch was founded in 1997 by Donald and Christopher Bently, a father-son duo with a passion for grass-fed beef and sustainable farming. Their love for the environment runs deep, and their commitment to running a business as green as possible, runs deeper. Christopher is now the president and director, and his goal of creating a fully organic ranching practice has truly come to life.

When it comes to cattle ranching, Bently Ranch excels. Their cattle are raised and cared for by ranchers that incorporate old traditions with new, and they take great pride in the legacy that they’re creating. We couldn’t have been more impressed as we toured and learned more about the ranch, the measures they take to be sustainable and eco-friendly, and the family environment they’ve fostered… It's beyond impressive. And for all you meat lovers out there, their beef is certified natural, Gap Step 4, hormone free, and GMO free.

And it’s downright delicious. (Order some here and see for yourself!)

THE DISTILLERY

For years Christopher Bently has been fascinated and inspired by the old world whisky distilleries of Scotland. Being the dreamer and entrepreneur that he is, it only made sense that they build their own… right in the heart of Carson Valley. Using only their grains - winter rye, wheat, oats, and barley (all grown on Bently ranch), their goal is to set a new standard for sustainable production. Besides the imported Oloroso sherry oak casks, everything is sourced and created from their land. Everything. How cool is that?!

The distillery itself is state-of-the-art, with the best equipment and an innovative team of expert distillers paving the way. They specialize in gin, vodka, and whisky (which is currently being aged). While the whisky won’t be ready for a few years, they’ve been making waves with their unique Source One Vodkas. Their Source One Vodka finished in the sherry casks is an absolute must-try. It’s the first vodka I (Bobby) have ever wanted to sip on like a whisky - it’s smooth, complex, and easy to drink. We of course bought a bottle and brought it home.

State of the art facilities at Bently Distillery. This is the malting room!

WHEN TO VISIT

Open to the public Thursdays-Sundays, the Bently Heritage Distillery Tour is not to be missed. Guests get an insider look into the incredible lengths they go to, to instill that their production is as sustainable as possible, and see the distillery in action! Tours are an hour long and end with a spirit tasting… our favorite part! ;)

The Bently Heritage “Public House”, or tasting room, is also open Thursdays-Sundays, for specialty cocktails and light bites. Set in a one-hundred-year-old historic flour mill (that once again is processing grains), the ambiance is as unique as it is mesmerizing. The entire cocktail menu does, of course, feature products solely made in-house, and features weekly drink specials. We’d be there weekly if we lived in Carson Valley!

Discovering Bently Ranch and Distillery was one of the highlights from our trip to Carson Valley - and we can’t wait to see how they continue to grow and set new standards for excellence in both cattle ranching and distilling.

We have a feeling this is just the beginning. And Bobby’s counting down the days their whisky becomes available.

Pacific Grove :: California's Best Kept Secret

Alli Talley

February 19, 2020

California, USA, Babymoon

We’ve been making the trek to Carmel and Monterey for years (see a list of our favorite spots here), and every time we discover something new. New restaurants, new hiking spots, new scenic drives… But this year we discovered a quaint little town that we had no idea existed. Pacific Grove (or “PG” as the locals like to call it) sits right between Carmel and Monterey, and it perfectly embodies the charm and rugged character of both. It’s just “off the map” enough that it feels like a local secret, with an untouched coastline, cozy restaurants, quaint B&B’s, and so much more.

By the end of a few short days in Pacific Grove, we were officially hooked. And after you see the spots we visited, we have a feeling you will be too...

ASILOMAR STATE BEACH

The name of this beach means “A Refuge By The Sea”, and that’s exactly what it is. There’s over 105 acres of forest, sand dunes, walking trails, and stunning ocean landscapes. It’s a haven for wildlife, as we saw several whales, sea otters, dolphins, and several different kinds of birds. Come at sunset, and you’re almost guaranteed a neon show… and the best part about it all? Asilomar State Beach is free to the public!

Sunsets are FIRE at Asilomar State Beach!

THE MONARCH BUTTERFLY SANCTUARY

If you happen to visit Pacific Grove between October-February, a stop at their beloved Monarch Butterfly Sanctuary is a must. Starting in October, thousands of Monarch butterflies call this Eucalyptus grove home, as they seek a warmer climate. The sanctuary is free, and visitors of all ages are invited to explore, admire, and photograph these stunning creatures… but don’t touch! (Tampering with a Monarch butterfly will result in a $1,000 fine!)

Take a stroll through the butterfly sanctuary! It’s beautiful!

CREMA

We’re big breakfast people, so when we discovered this homey cafe that proudly serves brunch all-day, we knew we’d be fans. Crema’s brunch menu is as extensive as their ingredients are fresh, with specialties such as chicken and waffles, eggs benedict, avocado toast, and their signature Bacon Cheddar Biscuits & Tamie’s Slightly Spicy Sausage Gravy (A must according to Bobby!). Plus, they offer bottomless mimosas for only $17 - yes please!

WILD FISH

Pacific Grove’s culinary scene has a lot to offer, especially when it comes to fresh seafood. While you truly can’t go wrong with the many seafood options, we think Wild Fish just may be one of the best. Everything they serve is 100% local and organic, with an ever-rotating menu that is sourced several times a week from local farmers, fishermen, and foragers. It’s as fresh and “farm to table” as you can get, and that’s exactly why we like it! Make a reservation in advance, and ask for a window seat - our favorite spot to sit!

LOVERS POINT PARK AND BEACH

Maybe it’s the hopeless romantics in us, but we absolutely adore this scenic park and beach. In the warmer months it’s a popular spot for swimming, surfing, and boating, and even in the cool of January we enjoyed exploring and picnicking in this stunning location. Plus, its unique East-facing location makes Lovers Point Park and Beach one of the only places on the West Coast where you can watch the sun RISE over the water!

Picturesque views all over Lovers Point Park.

THE SEVEN GABLES INN

While we already did a full review of our stay at The Seven Gables Inn (you can find it here), we couldn’t help but include it here too. Set in a historic home that dates back to 1886, not only is the architecture and ambiance of the property a marvel in and of itself, its prime oceanfront location is the real star of the show. Every room (there are 25) has an ocean view, and every room has a distinct personality and charm. When it comes to accommodations, it doesn’t get more idyllic (or romantic) than the Seven Gables Inn.

Could the location of the Seven Gables Inn be any better?

Next time you’re planning a trip up the California Coast, spend a few days exploring Pacific Grove. From the beaches, to the restaurants, to The Seven Gables Inn, we know you’ll love it. We’re absolutely sure of it.
