This is our second stay and we loved it as much as the first. The home is very clean and comfortable with an open spacious layout for visiting family. The Sonoran sunrise and sunset were spectacular from the patio. Look for javalinas and road runners! Thank you again Mike.

Check in was very easy, house was well set up for the stay & had just about everything needed, easy to communicate with owner when a problem arose. Only complaint might be instructions on how to navigate the TV remotes for each TV because they don't replicate each other, & the wifi connection to the TV in the small room off the kitchen seems to have a weak signal because it took forever to make a connection between the TV & server & when it finally did the picture "tiled" a lot so it was difficult following a movie because it was constantly pausing & then picking up the program/movie however long the pause lasted.

House review

The house was great, and had everything we needed for a short stay. The owner reached out a couple times before and during our stay and was very easy to deal with. The house was only about a fifteen to twenty minute drive into Tucson, depending where your going.

Fabulous view and tons of space for gathering

This place exceeded our expectations. It is much bigger than it looks in pictures. We were visiting family and had plenty of space to have them over to our place to eat and hang out. The patio has a spectacular view and was great for hanging out also. Mike was very attentive to our needs and checking in and out was easy.

Week at Quail Crossing

Met / exceeded expectations. Roomy, clean, good digital communications with owner. No hassles whatsoever. Stargazed and watched hawks and woodpeckers on the saguaros and quail in the underbrush. No javalinas but did get serenaded by coyotes.

Winter in the desert

Nice home base for our family to explore Tucson and southeastern Arizona. Plenty of room to unwind and spread out. Well set up kitchen was a plus. Enjoyed being away from the traffic and noise of the city. Only shortcoming was the beds were rather firmer than most of our party prefers.

Great location for nature enthusiasts

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay of several weeks at this well appointed home. From colorful sunrises and sunsets the views of the Catalinas and Twin Peaks were magnificent. From the back patio we saw coyotes, jackrabbits, javalinas and several species of birds in the Sonoran desert landscape. We really liked our ability to go for a hike or cycle without needing to drive, but Catalina State Park, Saguaro West NP, Tortolita Preserve, Honeybee Canyon were all a short drive away. You're also not far from Oro Valley and Tucson restaurants but the nearby Whole Foods, Traders Joes and Frys made dining in easy. Mike was a wonderful host and we would stay here again.

Great location for cyclists

Nice house in a very nice neighborhood. Pleased to have a garage to safely store our bikes. Loved that the house backed up to undeveloped desert. Nearby walking trail was well maintained. Saw lots of wildlife...quail, owls, hawks, javalina, coyotes...very fun. Close to trails for riding and just a few minutes' drive to Dove Mountain brewery with yummy beer and food. Communications with the owner were excellent. A few minor things in need of repair but owner was responsive to taking care of them...nothing that detracted from our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Mike Quatsoe

Host profile image
We live in Washington State, and we love enjoying the natural setting of our house in Marana. Great views and animals roaming in the preserve.

We bought this house as we enjoy hiking and biking - and there are tons of trails nearby. The world class golf courses nearby are also a treat.

Why they chose this property

The neighborhood is quiet with many long-term residents. Our house has a view of a natural preserve from the patio which has amazing sunsets and wild animals who live right behind us.

We see javelinas, coyotes, birds, owls, and many other critters from the safety of our patio

What makes this property unique

Our house is new, and we decorated it to be comfortable as well as not cluttered. The patio's view is lovely, so we spent time adding comfortable outdoor furniture and small propane gas pit for winter months.
