We plan to become snowbird when we retire, until then we thought we would share our home with you to take advantage of staying in a home as if it were your own. We live in British Columbia, Canada. Where we live in Canada, we don't get snow (if we do it is a few flakes) but we still want to be "Snowbirds" We have found the people in Maricopa friendly and welcoming. Good friends of ours had us stay with them in Maricopa a couple times and we loved it so much we ended up buying. Now we would like to pay it forward for others to enjoy. Thanks to our wonderful friends who introduced us to the Maricopa. We love it!! We are sure you will as well
