Day trips from our Gilbert and Mesa vacation rentals open up a world of Arizona attractions within easy driving distance. From ancient cliff dwellings to modern cultural centers, the diversity of experiences available makes our East Valley vacation homes the perfect base for exploration.

Scottsdale and Old Town

Just 30 minutes from our Gilbert properties, Old Town Scottsdale offers art galleries, boutique shopping, and some of the best dining in Arizona. Spend the morning browsing Native American art, enjoy a long lunch at a patio restaurant, and return to The Max Resort or Pieper Village refreshed and inspired.

Roosevelt Dam and Tonto Basin

Drive the scenic Bush Highway to Roosevelt Lake, one of the largest reservoirs in Arizona. The historic Roosevelt Dam is an engineering marvel, and the surrounding Tonto National Forest provides stunning desert canyon scenery. Pack a picnic from your vacation rental kitchen and make a full day of it. Discover more day trip ideas when you book at LoveYourVacationRental.com.
