Pointe Hilton Squaw Peak050

The Point Hilton Squaw Peak resort offers families their choice of 563 all-suite accommodations adjacent to the 3,000-acre Phoenix Mountain Preserve in beautiful north Phoenix. Kids can float down a half-mile Lazy River or scream down the 138-foot Slippery Slide at the Hole-in-the-Wall River Ranch, a four-acre oasis of waterfalls, swimming pools, water basketball, and volleyball. Poolside games, events, crafts, and water activities are scheduled during the warmer months. Coyote Camp offers western-themed activities to kids ages four to 12. Children receive a hands-on introduction to Arizona's colorful folklore, culture, and geography through special art projects, cooking activities, games, and water play. Space is limited; reservations are required to participate. The Kids' Koncierge offers free access to books and games, a play area, and a parents' lounge. Other recreational options include an 18-hole executive miniature putting course, four lighted tennis courts, a fitness center, the Tocasierra Spa and Salon, and nearby hiking trails. Fine and casual dining is just steps away at the resort's three restaurants and snack bar. As with most Valley resorts, rates drop significantly during the summer months. Book early, as weekend dates in particular fill up quickly.
