Ideal northwest Tucson location...7 miles East of Interstate 10; just east of Dove Mountain & Ritz Carlton, 20 minutes from airport. No neighbors nearby, but you are minutes from wonderful shopping, movies, restaurants, etc. Fry's (Kroger) Superstore/marketplace 1 mile. Chinese restaurant in same center.

Enjoy our wraparound, covered patio with great views, gas BBQ and patio set. ).
Hear the coyotes howl, see bobcats, big eared jack rabbits, gambel quail, road runners, cactus wrens, soaring red tail & harris hawks.... maybe even some nocturnal javalenas(pecary...looks like small wild pig).

Fantastic stay
We had an outstanding stay in a wonderful property. The tennis court was such a bonus for little tyker play area. The hosts are exceptional and the house was spotless, well equipped and super fun. The amazing birds at the feeder were so great to watch. The location is close to hikes, stores and parks.

Casa del Sol -- great for hiking
We enjoyed our stay at Casa del Sol so very much! It's fairly equidistant to Saguaro West and Tucson Mountain Park vs. The Catalina Road up toward Mt. Lemmon and Sabino Canyon, then you've got Dove Mountain literally in the back yard and Romero Canyon fairly close -- so much to enjoy, and virtually everything in the house that you could need!! Larry and Claire are close at hand if you need anything, but not obtrusive. In short, an ideal paradise to call home for a couple weeks or more!!

Peaceful and Beautiful Location
Casita Del Sol is a beautiful place to stay! We were surrounded by nature and close to several great hiking trails. We also attended our niece’s wedding in downtown Tucson just minutes away. Larry and Claire have made their Casita very comfortable with all the amenities you could possibly need. We are photography enthusiasts and birders and loved seeing an abundance of wildlife during our stay. We did not want to leave and expect to return again someday!

lovely casita
The property was lovely, felt like we were out in the wilderness despite being off a main road. We loved watching the mountains change color throughout the day. An easy short hike thru the desert is close by. Property owners responded promptly to a battery request and checked on us during our stay, nice people. The house was immaculate. We would absolutely stay here again.

Absolutely Amazing!
We had an amazing stay! This property is gorgeous and had everything we needed. We saw beautiful sunsets and had an interesting experience with a javelina the first night! It was super exciting. Larry and Claire were so nice and friendly. We will definitely stay here again on future trips.

About the host

Hosted by Claire & Larry Klingler

Host profile image
Casita Del Sol was built on our 10 acres, with it's garage and our home's garage facing each other for maximum privacy. Each home is on at least 5 acres. We are the owners, Larry & Claire Klingler. We love to travel around the world and also meet new people here at home. We hope you will come see us soon. We have a very unique setting, and private security gate(you will be given a remote for the gate and the garage).

Why they chose this property

We are at the base of the Tortolita Mountains on the far Northwest side of Tucson. Shopping centers are be minutes from us, but our only views, from high on a plateau, are of the Catalina & Tortolita Mountains, plus the gorgeous saguaro forest(cactus giants of our special Sonoran desert).

What makes this property unique

Because our property is on 10 acres and there are not many homes in our area, we get a tremendous amount of birds/wildlife. Javelina(pecaries), bobcats, fox, deer, jackrabbits, rock, roundtail and the antelope squirrels, coyote, roadrunners, and more....you may see gambel quail with their babies, or the flowering cacti if you are here at the right time of year. Our winter weather is savored by everyone, worldwide and our spring and fall seasons are fabulous. Contact us with any questions you may have. We are very friendly and easy to talk to.
