It feels absolutely as solid as the day it was built. The parcel could not be any more beautiful with natural plant species, views in every direction, and privacy.

Beautiful location. We’re birding in Arizona and your home provided an excellent opportunity to bird. The coyote singing at night and the javelina added to the experience.
Beautiful, quiet, unique hideaway. The setting, in a well cared for ranch home, was perfect. Incredibly clean, and furnished with appropriate old south west furnishings. Truly a gem. Will certainly stay at Lazy S Ranch again when we come south next year.
Really enjoyed this house and location. The house is spacious, clean, well equipped and on a beautiful, private, very quiet, large property in the foothills of Tucson on the west side. There is a small fenced in area for med to large size dogs (small ones might get through the wire) and the roof deck was an added bonus for watching both sunrises and sunsets. We saw several animals and birds at the small water feature in the yard. The new property managers were communicative when needed. Definitely would recommend this property.
Loved the rooftop deck for morning coffee and evening serenading by coyotes! The house was comfortable and the beds were super comfortable. The close proximity to great hiking trails was nice. Only bummer is that the internet wasn’t working, and I didn’t get great cell service so had to drive somewhere to get enough reception for a work meeting which I had hoped I could do at the house. Other than that it was a good experience, and for the setting and the abundant wildlife I would comeback.
The stay was overall lovely! Communication with the property management was minimal to none, it was very hard to get a hold of them for anything. Management changed between when we booked the house and when our stay occurred and the new company didn’t reach out to me until the day before our stay after I called 4 different numbers and finally got a call back from one. It would have been nice to have some sort of communication between booking the house and the day before the stay. The house itself was very nice, the beds were comfortable, and we loved the rooftop deck. We saw a coyote, lots of birds, and lots of toads during our stay. The little fenced in yard attached to the house was very handy when it came to taking our dogs out at night!
Clean, private, and central to good hiking and restaurants.Love it. Great yard to enjoy. All a Mainer needs.

Perfect Desert Getaway!
We used to live in Tucson, we absolutely loved everything this property has to offer. Incredible views, sunsets and sunrises. We could not have stayed at a better place. Truly recommend staying here when you are looking for a desert getaway!
My husband and I enjoyed this unique spot, especially watching the sunrise on the rooftop deck in the mornings. We chose it because of the location to Sweetwater Preserve which was a wonderful biking and hiking spot.
Perfect getaway even if you already live in AZ. It was peaceful and quaint. The house was so clean and comfortable and had everything you need. Enjoyed a fire under the desert stars. We would definitely come again!

Lazy C Ranch is Wonderful
We had a very comfortable, quiet and peaceful stay! Wildlife is abundant, and we saw a kestrel, rabbits and walking past the living room window we also saw some javelinas and a coyote. Beautiful location, surrounded by stunning desert and mountain views.

Amazing house in a great location
We loved staying here! The location is perfect-you’re surrounded by the desert and it feels like you’re in the national park. Sunsets and sunrises from the house were breathtaking. The bedrooms are nicely separated and comfortable, and the kitchen has everything you need. But the location is really the best part: a 10 minute drive to great hiking and a 20 minute drive to Saguaro NP. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

Beautiful views and wildlife
The house was just what we were seeking- a desert getaway with a beautiful views and access to wildlife. Roadrunner, quail and javalina were some of the highlights of the visit. The house was very comfortable and had modern fixtures while at the same time giving the feel of stepping into the past. Thank you for a fantastic place to bring my family
This rental was perfect in all respects. Location was ideal for exploring the Tucson region and what it has to offer. Restaurants & shopping were within 5 miles, but the property feels secluded and private and quiet. The house itself had everything we needed, including washer and dryer; good wifi and tv streaming; was clean and comfortable. Saw coyotes, quail, & deer visit the backyard watering hole too....
This is an amazing experience just outside of Tuscon. The town has a much, much different feeling when you are not confined to downtown. Day and night this property is amazing. The amenities are too notch, and the yard landscaping is out of this world. Would stay again.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We loved sitting on the back porch and rooftop for morning coffee and happy hour. It feels like the home is in a cactus botanical garden. We were also treated to a family of javelinas that wondered by on several occasions. The home was very clean and comfortable. We would definitely recommend. We look forward to staying again the next time we are in Tucson
