Downtown Tempe Maple-Ash Patio Home Steps from ASU

I am a scientist by education and sales representative by trade. My wife and I chose hosting travelers because of our passion for hospitality and love of Tempe!

Our son became a Sun Devil in the fall of 2021. Since then, we fell in love with Tempe and wanted to a place to visit when we leave Southern California for the beautiful Arizona desert.

Maple-Ash dates back to 1935. The neighborhood is made up of cozy homes, abundant trees that grace the neighborhood such as: cork oak, plane tree, orchid tree, ash tree, Aleppo pine and Chinese pistachio. These trees of Historic Maple-Ash District are home to a variety of beautiful birds. While being nestled in the peace of Maple-Ash, you are so close to the nightlife of Mill Ave. As you walk to get coffee from Cartel’s in the morning, you will hear the birds chirping in the trees that shade your walk. When you walk at night, you will see those same trees lit by string lights that brighten the neighborhood. ASU is a few blocks from this neighborhood which also gives this place an energetic and positive place to be!
