We loved this quiet home set in the desert. Regular wild animal sightings and lovely views into the desert. The game arcade was a fun bonus for the hot afternoons. The house was very comfortable and had everything needed for a lovely stay. The host was responsive and helpful. It was our favorite VRBO on our Arizona trip. Was close to lots of good hiking and the park. Perfect!

Desert hideaway in Tucson mountains

The house is comfortable roomy and open to views of mountains, wildlife with fresh air throughout. The location is private and quiet, conveniently located for hiking in the Saguaro NP West as well as Tucson Mountain Park and touring the AZ-Sonora Desert Museum. The kitchen is well equipped, bright and sunny for meal prep and eating as well as the house being the same with lots of natural light.A great plus that the host was readily accessible to questions regarding the accommodations. A 2-wk stay went by all too quickly!

Hiking and Sunsets

We enjoy spending part of winter at this home at the edge of the Saguaro Desert close to hiking trails. It is about 30 minutes from the city and the amenities of city life which is why we choose this site…we get to the Farmer’s Markets and restaurants and grocery stores by planning our trips into the city. The home has the amenities we want and is well stocked. The internet access was super this year which we need since we tend to do some virtual work while here. We will stay again!

Hiking in Saguaro Park

This property is an excellent location for hiking in the park, only minutes away from many hikes and only 30 minutes from Tucson. The property has a wonderful master bedroom that is large and has a desk from which I could work while there. The kitchen is well equipped. We only used the master bedroom and the bed there was great. There are two other bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with two twin beds. There is a double garage, outdoor gas grill and outdoor table and chairs from which we watched the sunset each evening with saguaro cacti in the foreground and mountains in the background. We had excellent, prompt responses from the owner. We have stayed two years now and hope to come back.

Beautiful and quiet!

The house is lovely, perfect size for family of six. Location was so peaceful and close to all the places we wanted to visit. Unfortunately the memory foam mattresses was not our style, so sleeping was uncomfortable. My hubby sweat so much that he ended up on the floor on the available air mattress. Kids loved it. Toys for my five year old. Nice outside area fenced in. No neighbors around. It was all about the location. Desert museum, Old Tucson, and the Saguaro National Park are all in that area. Kids loved it all. Shopping for groceries in Tucson is 30 minutes away. But drive careful on that road, very narrow and unsafe.

Nice home...but needs some upgrades

Great location.,quiet...dark..isolated. Home is located in a very rural area of Tucson. Home is a nice place to stay for 2 people..as long as you don’t need any Internet,,,service there is poor at best. By no means is this a 5 star property just for this severe shortcoming. Kitchen has antiquated furnishings and kitchenware. Some scratched up,,,other dirty. Appliances just average. Bedrooms are furnished adequately but poorly lit. Furnishings dated but clean. 1 tv in this home that sleeps 6. Living room is ok but also marginally lit. Direct tv service there is fully on the cheap.. just broadcast channels and the QVC. Forget CNN CNBC Golf Fox etc. Owner very cheap in this ...fitting other aspects of this house. Other properties in the area are a better value. I won’t rent here again. I complied with all property rules..paid full amounts. Left the house in fine shape,
