Welcome to Green Valley and a slower paced life style
Enjoy the sunsets, beauty and serenity of the Sonoran Desert. Everything you need is here in this southwestern Casita filled with charm and comfort.
Within a senior adult community, “mi Casita” (my small house) is a Green Valley Resort Home located in friendly Green Valley. Just steps away are the private tenant only pool and Jacuzzi; across the street from GVR West Center tennis courts, fitness and recreation center with its own pool and jacuzzi; and just steps from the Continental Shopping Plaza for groceries, shopping and dining.
This one bedroom, one bath unit has ceramic tile throughout. The bedroom has a King size bed, a full size chest of drawers, end tables and large 6 foot closet. While we used to have a "second" bed hidden in the pull out couch, that couch has been replaced with much newer and nicer couch which sits higher, is more comfortable and boasts 2 recliner chairs that almost go flat if one so desires, although one could not call it a bed !
Enjoy a 44: HD flat screen TV in the large recliner or comfortable sofa bed or lay in bed and watch a new 30: flat screen TV mounted on the wall. Wireless high-speed internet service keeps you in touch with the snowy, cold world you left behind. The kitchen is furnished with dishes, silverware, cooking utensils, pots & pans, coffee maker and toaster and a small dining area for four. The skylights in the bathroom and living area provide natural light in the entire living area; all towels and linens for bedroom, bath and kitchen are included and a washer/dryer to keep them and your clothes clean.
Green Valley Recreation facilities are available for a one-time nominal fee. Enjoy access to any one of 13 recreation centers and their pools, most which have fitness centers and provide for a wide variety of social activities. The Baja Sporting Club features 2 coed senior softball leagues from January through March at the newly built fields at Catino Park, off Whitehouse Canyon road on the way to the Madera Canyon, a world renowned birding area. And realize you are only 38 miles from Mexico, day trips are easy so bring your passport and visit Nogales, Mexico !!
Don't forget your golf clubs! Green Valley has 7 golf courses; 5 public and 2 private, in the GV area with additional courses in Tubac, Tucson and Nogales. Hiking and biking is within an easy drive or ride.
This is an age-restricted resort community. At least one resident must be 55 or older.

This townhouse is located directly next door to a shopping center, grocery, hardware, restaurants, etc.Very nice floor plan, easy, all you need.Will absolutely be staying here once per month!
Overall a good stay. The unit met our needs and was comfortable while visiting GV. Other than a discrepancy between what we paid and what was the per night rate listed later on the VRBO web site it was a pleasant and comfortable stay.
The home was in a perfect spot for us and neighbors were very friendly, also having a pool and hot tub was a plus as well. We were there for a funeral and coming back to the Casita felt like home. The owners were awesome. Will be back again!
Clean and tastefully decorated. Loved the common space outside the unit.

About the host
Hosted by Philip Stacy Michaels
An active couple, the wife loves pickle ball and the husband softball. Sandy has played pickle ball right through the Green Valley summer in 106 degree heat .... is she dedicated, you bet. Stacy has played senior softball for almost 20 years and is currently rehabbing a total hip replacement and total shoulder replacement, both occurring in 2016 and currently manages two softball teams. We slash and burn on the golf course but enjoy being outside and socializing with our partners. We enjoy our wine and our hot tub, not necessarily at the same time. We love to cook and entertain.
Why they chose this property
So close to soooo many amenities, it is difficult to not find anything you desire.
What makes this property unique
The primary GVR property is right across the street from the casita and it has many classes, courts, pools, work out rooms etc. You still have your own private pool and jacuzzi on the casita's property. GVR Racquetball courts are close by as are tennis courts. The 19th hole, right down the street, is a great sports bar showing many bowl games etc. and has very good food. And did I mention you can wear shorts all year long !
