Fountain Hills is a town east of Scottsdale, set against the McDowell Mountains with McDowell Mountain Regional Park along its northern side. Its name comes from the large fountain in Fountain Park, a 64-acre park with a lake and a paved walking path at the center of town. Because the town climbs into the foothills, many homes for sale in Fountain Hills sit on sloped lots with views across the valley toward the Four Peaks and the surrounding ranges. Housing includes custom hillside homes, golf community properties and townhomes. The Fountain Hills community guide covers the town further.
