Cave Creek and Carefree pickups, and the drive home

Scottsdale Sprinters is a Scottsdale chauffeured transportation company serving metro Phoenix. Cave Creek and Carefree sit at the top of the metro, past the North Scottsdale edge, and they are a different kind of job: long desert roads, a saloon strip in Historic Cave Creek that nobody should drive home from, and desert resort guests who want the same vehicle for the whole stay.

How we work in Cave Creek

The drive up here is the whole argument for a chauffeur. Historic Cave Creek is a compact strip of bars and restaurants with a dark, winding drive back toward the Valley at the end of the night. Groups book one vehicle that waits through the evening rather than gambling on a ride that will not come this far out at closing time.

Where we pick up in Cave Creek

We pick up along the Historic Cave Creek saloon strip, across Carefree, and at the desert resorts on both sides of the town line. The Pinnacle Peak corridor is a short run south, so North Scottsdale groups often start or finish here.

What a booking costs in Cave Creek

The fleet seats 6 to 56. Below are the Sprinters first, then the group end, each with the rate, the minimum, what that minimum comes to and the per-person figure the pricing page publishes for the same vehicle, on the same basis. The full grid is on the pricing page, and it is the same grid in Cave Creek as everywhere else we serve.

An hourly charter carries a 4-hour minimum on every listed vehicle, and a 5-hour minimum on the 56-Passenger Motorcoach. A point-to-point transfer has no hourly minimum at all: it is flat within 15 road miles from pickup to drop-off, and a longer transfer is priced from the drive with the empty return included, with the basis shown on the quote.

What you pay at checkout depends on the method you choose. Some methods take a 50% deposit and charge the balance to that same method no earlier than 48 hours before pickup; others settle in full at checkout and leave nothing due before the ride. Checkout says which applies to yours before you confirm.

Cancellation is decided by the date first. An ordinary date refunds in full 14 or more days ahead; a reservation of 20 or more passengers or 2 or more vehicles refunds in full 30 or more days ahead, with the deposit kept from there in to 14 days; and a major-event date overrides both — its deposit is not refundable and the balance returns only 60 or more days ahead.

Added at the end: 8% Arizona tax, and nothing else — no booking fee and no fuel fee. A promotion code is capped at 10%. Gratuity is optional and is never added for you. Taking the return leg together with the outbound takes 20% off the return leg. An added stop is $50 on a transfer or a round trip and is complimentary on an hourly charter.

Frequently asked questions

Will a vehicle come this far north?

Yes. Cave Creek and Carefree are inside the normal service area, at the same published hourly rates as the rest of the metro. Late pickups from the Historic Cave Creek strip are routine work for us.

Can you hold the vehicle through a night out on the strip?

Yes — that is the usual booking here. The vehicle is yours for the hours you reserve, so it waits between stops and takes the group home at the end rather than leaving you to find a ride at closing.

Do you serve the Carefree and Cave Creek resorts?

Yes. Resort guests commonly hold one vehicle across a stay for dinners, golf and the airport run, which is cheaper than booking each leg separately.

How long is the run to the airports?

Cave Creek and Carefree are the far north of the service area, so airport runs are longer than a central pickup. Give the reservations team your flight and they will set the pickup time against it.
