About this property

Beautifully furnished historic home with heated pool close to Downtown Tucson.

Beautiful historic two bedroom home located in Armory Park. Walking distance to downtown Tucson and local bars and restaurants! U of A is a 10 minute tram ride away. Impeccably furnished with every amenity you could need. Fully stocked kitchen ready to cook a feast! Stunning back yard with a new pool (pool can be heated for an additional fee -contact host for details). Plenty of patio space to lounge in the sun or relax in the shade. Peaceful and beautiful gardens with olive, grapefruit and lemon trees. A jewel in the desert. One of our first renters wrote. "...The house is great! The most well-stocked rental we've ever rented. The kitchen and its utensils and dishes are wonderful. And the backyard...fantastic!" T Schreiner

Amazing Spot

We had a perfect vacation here. The house is so comfortable and it really just feels like you’re staying in a friend’s home. The backyard and pool are STUNNING and we spent so much magical time out there. It’s walking distance to so many wonderful coffee shops and the brewery nearby was great. I recommend this 100% - you will not regret it.

Perfect Tucson getaway

We are two couples in our sixties who spent a month in this cozy and comfortable home! Highlights for us were lounging by the pool, cooking in the well stocked kitchen, and exploring Tucson from this central location. The two comfortable bedrooms with private baths were a huge plus. Jennifer is a great communicator and awesome host! We highly recommend and are already booked for next year!

Great Location

The location of this home was perfect for our weekend stay in Tucson. It was extremely close to the Tucson Convention Center and downtown restaurants while being only a 25-minute drive to Saguaro National Park. Jennifer was excellent at quickly responding to any questions we had. Also- the beds were very comfortable, so we slept great!

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Smith

Host profile image
I am so happy to introduce myself! I've lived in Tucson for over 35 years and absolutely love the Sonora desert. I have raised my five children here and am so happy to wake up every morning to the beautiful sun and mountains. I love hiking Tucson's varied hiking trails and have just started mountain biking. There is so much history here with wonderful restaurants and plenty to do outdoors.

Why they chose this property

This is a beautiful and unique property. This home was built in 1902 and has so much charm. When you enter the backyard you are transported to your own private resort. Lovely gardens and a beautiful heated black bottom pool. Lounge chairs and seating areas to relax or entertain your friends and family. The inside of the house is lovingly decorated to feel like a peaceful home where you can relax and enjoy the Old Pueblo.

What makes this property unique

I love the location of this home. You are 0.7 miles from downtown bars and restaurants and 0.5 miles from the tram that can take you to U of A. The historic neighborhood of Armory Park is a beautiful place to take an evening stroll and enjoy all of the old homes in the neighborhood. It is a quiet and peaceful area to be in.
