He's finally starting to learn how to swim We've had them at goldfish, swim school and had a private instructor. Come to my mother-in-law's house to try to teach him to swim with. Absolutely no progress. I heard about Kim Courtney through a patient of mine. And I am so glad she told me about Kim, Courtney's Swim School. Are used to competitively swim in high school and it's frustrating to me that I can't teach my own child how to swim. I'm glad there's a place like this that exists, and I hope to keep him enrolled for years to come. And I hope he has a love for swim just like I did. Thank you so much for all you guys do! Jameson & Grayson are so awesome with him. These negative reviews are ridiculous. Any swim school you take him to the instructors are going to be high school or college kids that teach the class. They are usually either on a swim team or used to compete.

My 2 year old would sink to the bottom two weeks ago. He is now in his second session and is kicking and using his arms to cross the pool, holding his breathe and diving for rings. These teachers are true professionals. They know how to handle your children, teach them proper techniques and muscle memory, and teach your toddlers to swim. They deal with tough toddlers each day and handle them wonderfully. My kid was very hesitant on day one and loves it now. A+ quality here. Please ignore the bad reviews. These parents don't understand what it takes to teach these kids how to swim and potentially save their lives. Very professional!

There are stays that feel transactional, and then there are stays that feel intentional. Rancho…read moreMañana, a Hilton resort tucked into Cave Creek, falls squarely into the latter. My girlfriends and I stayed here recently, and from the moment we arrived, the property set the tone. Surrounded by sweeping golf views and true desert beauty, it felt peaceful and grounded. We even had the unexpected joy of seeing javelinas wander through the area--one of those moments that reminds you you're truly away from the noise. The amenities are simple and thoughtfully curated: a pool and a hot tub that invite you to slow down. There isn't an overload of extras, and honestly, that works in its favor. The real differentiator is the suites--they are absolute perfection. Spacious, well-appointed, and designed in a way that makes you feel at home rather than "checked in." We especially appreciated being able to cook for ourselves, which added a layer of comfort and ease to the stay. There's also a restaurant on-site for those who prefer dining out, though we didn't visit it this time. All in all, Rancho Mañana delivers a refined, restful experience. It's the kind of place that understands its lane--quiet luxury, natural beauty, and space to breathe--and executes it exceptionally well.

After reviewing the job the owner contacted me immediately. John came out the next day and was not happy with the job and committed to re-doing a portion of the deck. We were busy with company and had to delay the correction. Upon rescheduling we had more delays due to weather. In the mean time the supervisor came to our home and instead of redoing a number of sections Arrowhead Deck did our whole deck over again. I can't believe the difference. The quality is outstanding and looks the way I had hope it would turn out. The drains were cut in smoothly, the new 4" drain was cut in making it look nicely finished. I do commend Arrowhead's Decks crew that redid our deck and their commitment to quality work. Our deck now looks like new ready for our upcoming summer heat. We chose Reflector-Shield sealer to provide the coolest surface. Hats off to the crew that just finished the job they really did a fine job. Extra thanks to John the owner and Chris for taking time to monitor the job and committing to quality work. My neighbor was looking for a recommendation for his home so Chris stopped by to see him today. Keep up the good work and thank you for your response with my concerns. J.J.

After reading reviews we decided to pay the premium dollar with Arrowhead Deck & Pool to get the…read moreservice and look promised by our sales person. Part of our request was to have an English speaking person on site during the process and that never happened. Generally the crew was 4 or 5 non English speaking gentlemen and was a major contributor to our problems. Our first issue was electrical. It seemed like every hour I was resetting a circuit breaker or a GFCI circuit. I tried to get the workers to use a dedicated circuit but got the shoulder shrug. I stopped resetting circuits and the crew ran out of plugs and finally pointed for electricity and I showed them the best location. I made a complaint to the Project Coordinator in the office and she told me the workers do not have to clear electrical plug usage with the customer. In the process they unplug security systems, wifi extenders controlling pool equipment etc. They damaged GFCI outlets causing all of our landscape lighting and pool lighting to be without power After 40+ days the company finally dispatched a worker to replace the GFCI plugs and other damaged lighting. I believe the work was performed by a non certified electrician because the workmanship did not comply to NEC code compliance general practices and still is not completed. He managed to shock himself 3 times since he said he can work on live electricity. I was very worried with his statement saying "good for the heart". I was very worried about a lawsuit if he died onsite. We paid a premium to have a "marbled look" surface and v-joints removed and blended to match so the surface for a more consistent appearance. Surface is complete but the v-joints are white and very obvious that make the decking look like a football field. At least our old joints matched our decking but the sales person said we should get rid of the ugly v-joints probably to raise the price. Don't believe the pictures the sales person shows you since the outcome will be different. We tried to discuss the issues with the Arrowhead owner to find a mutually beneficial conclusion but that has not been successful. Arrowhead is great on promises but totally lacking on delivery. Over 50 days and no follow up. Think twice before you may make a decision you may regret.

We were fortunate to have James at Blue Dot Pools recommended to us when we were searching for a…read morecompany to assist with our pool and hardscape remodel. James met with us and came across as extremely knowledgeable and creative regarding our project. He very specifically outlined every aspect of the plan which included a resurfacing of the interior of the pool as well as installing a travertine patio and updating our built-in Barbecue Grill and Firepit. We have built and updated our pool and yard at previous residences using other contractors and I would say that our experience with Blue Dot and James was by far the best. They made it very easy to select materials to use for the pool and hardscape and made wonderful suggestions as to what would work and inventive ideas to make our backyard space look perfect. In addition, James and his team placed an emphasis on safety as we updated not only our pool, but also our BBQ Grill and Firepit. The different crews who worked on this project were all professional and hardworking. Scheduling of each phase was precise and there were no delays - our renovation was actually completed earlier then projected. James has been a great resource to us even after all construction was concluded. He is always available to answer questions we have had and is a fantastic person to work with and to know.

I didn't need to be sold, I needed a partner, collaborator and someone that can bring renderings to life.

Every single one of the tradesman were beyond amazing. Absolute professionals at what they do. I would watch (without trying to pry) every day and was just blown away with the level of craftsmanship. Value - the ol' "If it's too good to be true...." does NOT apply here. I felt like we were left with an end product that far outshined our modest budget. However even with that modest budget we were treated absolutely no different than someone spending 10x. The same care was applied. It's just who they naturally are as people.
