[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Scottsdale is so overrated. This is the new bachelorette/bachelor party hot spot so if you like that scene, go for it. The resorts and their amenities are nice but in OPs case, they're not in town to enjoy a resort, they are in town for a wedding for a few short days.

Scottsdale is a suburb of Phoenix. I don't get the hype why people travel across the country to come to a suburb. Resorts, fine dining (which I'm not personally a fan of but to each their own) sure but there's not much else. Shopping at the Fashion Square? Those stores are everywhere and there's this new thing called 'online shopping.' lol.

I absolutely second the Boyce Thompson Arboretum. There are some great hiking trails there - actual trails where you'll need proper hiking shoes - and it's beautiful.

The nature and the weather are the best right now up until maybe early May-ish. Get out on the trails and I dont mean Camelback. Over in the east valley, you'll find some absolutely amazing hikes. [/quote]

This sounds dated. Nobody goes to Fashion Square. Everyone’s at Kierland and the Quarter. And the line between Phoenix and Scottsdale is pretty blurred. Phoenix barely rates as a city large enough to have a suburb. It’s all just sprawl.[/quote]
