When Teams Need Focus, They Go Private.
Private Executive & Corporate Retreat Estate in Scottsdale
Saguaro Point is a private executive retreat house in North Scottsdale designed for leadership teams, corporate offsites, and small company retreats. Scottsdale has become one of the most popular destinations in the United States for executive retreats, leadership offsites, and corporate team gatherings. Companies come for the sunshine, golf, and desert scenery, but the most successful retreats happen in settings that allow teams to step away from daily distractions and focus on meaningful conversations. Hotels and conference venues offer meeting rooms, but smaller leadership teams often prefer private estates where discussions, meals, and collaboration can happen naturally throughout the day. Saguaro Point sits on 10 gated mountaintop acres in North Scottsdale overlooking Pinnacle Peak and the McDowell Mountains. With eight bedrooms, 13 beds, four great rooms, a 12-person dining table, and expansive indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, the estate provides an ideal environment for executive teams and leadership groups. Located in North Scottsdale near Troon North, Grayhawk, and The Boulders, the estate sits in the center of Scottsdale’s premier golf corridor while maintaining privacy and space for meaningful conversations. Many retreat groups combine strategy sessions at the estate with rounds at nearby courses. “I have never stayed at a place this special. Saguaro Point is spectacular.” —Scott, New Jersey

Why Leadership Teams Choose Private Retreat Estates
At Saguaro Point, your team gathers in a private estate designed for conversation and connection. Meetings can happen around the 12-person dining table, in one of the estate’s four great rooms, or outside overlooking the Sonoran Desert.
Instead of returning to separate hotel rooms, the group stays together in a relaxed environment where conversations continue naturally throughout the day.
Evenings often include chef dinners, sunset drinks, or private tastings in the estate’s hidden speakeasy wine cellar.
The property also offers team-building experiences such as Ryder Cup-style competitions on the 20,000 square foot private golf complex, combining simulator matches with outdoor short-game play.
This is not simply where your team stays. It is where stronger teams are built.
“Saguaro Point is simply the best all-around golf trip location… been lucky enough to take many trips, both to private club hosted accommodation and vacation home trips and this blows everything else away. The home is incredibly comfortable and spacious for a big crowd.” -Travis, Ohio
