We had the best time at this sweet spot in Tucson! Close to downtown and trails, the house was spotless and had all the necessary amenities including a secluded back yard and an open concept kitchen and dining room for meals and spending quality time. The host was very communicative and accessible, and entry/exit instructions were clear and easy to follow. We loved it! Would recommend…5/5 stars!

This rental property is in great shape. The rooms were very clean and well appointed. We made breakfast one morning and were able to find all the cookware and cooking utensils we needed. We also had the option of a K-pod or traditionally brewed coffee. There were too many mosquitos to enjoy the lovely outdoor patio due to all the rain, but hopefully we can get outside next time if we get to go back during a dry spell. The host is also very hospitable and communicative - all around an enjoyable experience.

great visit with daughter

The visit to Tucson went very well. It was a short trip, but we had a lot of fun. We enjoy visiting Tucson to see my daughter at UA. The fire pit in the backyard was a great treat and a way for her to bring her friends over and enjoy smores. The house is pretty close and convenient to the UA campus and also had a grocery store super close to get supplies. We would definitely stay here again.

Clean, Quiet and Comfortable

My pickleball partner and I were in town for a tournament. The house was conveniently located near the airport and downtown. The house was perfect for our needs - clean, quiet and comfortable. Kitchen was stocked with salt, pepper, sugar, oil. Host provided ample coffee and creamers. Washer/dryer onsite. A/C worked great in the near 100 degree days. Water pressure strong. Hot water was hot. Off-street parking in driveway. Host was excellent communicator.

Truly Enjoyable

All points of interest were easily accessible from the house. It was large and comfortable enough for our whole family inside and in the garden. Communication with the host was pleasant and requests and questions were handeled or answered immediately. The house was well stocked with towels, kitchen utensils and condiments etc. Our stay was truly enjoyable.

Visiting for Thanksgiving

This property is perfect if you would like to be near campus. It's an easy walk or short drive. Being close to a Safeway grocery store was a bonus for us. The layout of the house was nice with the bedrooms being on one side of the house and all the shared living space on the other. The backyard was comfortable and made for another nice space to relax. Everything was as it said it would be. We would definitely stay here again.
