Mountain View’s from backyard and couch were wonderful. The home was very clean and equipped for all our needs - including toiletries, blankets in living area, kitchen supplies, and pet friendly for our dog. The host was very responsive to our messages, including allowing an early check-in. Highly recommended for stays in Tucson!
We had a great stay at this rental. The home was clean, comfortable, and well equipped with everything we needed. The location was convenient and quiet, and communication with the host was easy and responsive. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!
This is a nicely-furnished house in a quiet neighborhood in the Catalina foothills. Beautiful view of the mountains and lots of birds and other wildlife. We were impressed with how well stocked the home was, no need to bring any spices or condiments! My friends and I spent three very enjoyable weeks here in the warm January weather. The hosts were welcoming and easy to communicate with. We had a dog with us and it's just minutes from the dog park and easy for dog walking in the neighborhood.
We were in town for our daughter’s wedding and couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to stay. The house was spotless and well appointed. Ideal for our family of 7. Thank you.
This home is a great place to stay. It is in a quiet neighborhood, with restaurants and shopping nearby. The home is clean and pleasant. The wi-fi can accommodate a houseful of phones, tablets, and laptops.
Thank you for a lovely stay.
the home is beautiful in a nice neighborhood. There were some special things throughout the home that made our stay even more enjoyable.The outdoor space was incredible with the sunset views of the Arizona mountains.The hosts were incredibly and Albert came to the rescue immediately when I inadvertently locked us out
House was beautiful with amazing views of the mountains and sunset. Kitchen was extremely well equipped. Convenient to Mount Lemon and Saguaro National Park. This was among the nicest rental houses we have stayed at.

Thanks for reviewing us!! We’re happy to have you back anytime!!
Great location, beautiful home, exceptionally well stocked kitchen
Beautiful home in a nice residential neighborhood. The kitchen was the best stocked kitchen I have ever had in a Vrbo. The back yard had a nice grill and a fire pit with wood/starter fluid supplied. Beds were comfortable. Strongly recommend for your family stay in Tucson!
Very well-appointed house with everything you could need. Owners were very helpful and went out of their way to be helpful and make suggestions. Property is everything advertised and more.
The hosts were incredibly helpful and always responded quickly. The house was very clean and offered streaming tv services, microwave, toaster oven, coffee pot, all appliances were new and everything worked. Would definitely recommend staying here

We’re so happy you enjoyed your stay. We’re happy to have you back for your next Tucson adventure. :)
We had a great stay at this property. The house layout was ideal. Morning coffee on the patio was very relaxing. The kitchen was well equiped and it was a breeze to cook our meals. The washer/dryer was a good addition for our stay. Our request for additional ammenities was handled promply and with respect for our privacy.
The property was amazing and they had something for everyone. Fully stocked kitchen for the chef and beautiful views. Board games and upgraded everything! Our hosts were helpful and we hope to return in the future. You must not pass up this gem!
First, we needed space for our little pups to play and they had a blast in the expansive back yard. Next was a comfy living area, complete kitchen and super beds/bedrooms with tvs in two. The master was sublime complete with a bidet toilet seat and outside patio area. We ate on every available space (3) and took advantage of the fire pit which was a real treat.
I could live in this home! It has everything you can think of and is on a quiet street with great views. The layout is perfect for family, work, or whatever you have planned. The finishings are great and the extra care taken by the owners makes all the difference. I will be back!
The property is a great location, quiet and serene. The upgrades done in the house are absolutely beautiful. Everything we needed was available and thoughtful, so I did not need to contact the owners. Lovely short holiday.
Fabulous house, location, and hosts. We’ve stayed in many VRBOs and this was the best-ever. Super clean and absolutely everything you could possibly need. Great place for a family and we snowbirds used it for an entire month and had everything we needed. Beautiful backyard with mountain views and a variety of wildlife. We give this property an A plus plus!
