Note this is Menlo Park west of I-10, one of Tucson’s oldest neighborhoods. In fact it’s the original “barrio,” the banks of the Santa Cruz having been continuously inhabited for over 4,000 years. It’s a great neighborhood with a mix of historic, traditional and the up & coming. The street Casa Linda is on is quiet and friendly, filled with traditional multi-generational blue-color families and young professionals.
You`re steps way from one of the best taquerias in town (Sonoran Delights with the fabled Sonoran Hotdog, authentic tacos and dinners, Raspados and Escamoches!), as well as Pat`s Chili Dogs down Grande Ave in Barrio Hollywood, the Mercado San Augustine & MSA Annex with restaurants and stores, and with the street car a block away you`re connected to all that`s cool about Tucson. Also nearby is the Santa Cruz River Walk or `Loop` stretching from south of town all the way north (great for biking, jogging, scooter rides), bike rentals (on Bonito just north), the Garden of Gesthemene sculptures and lots more...

Tucson’s free Trolley service just a couple blocks away, connecting the nearby Mercado District with Downtown, 4th Ave., and the University area. Close access to I-10, downtown and the 210, and Silverbell on the West, make it easy to access most of Tucson, quickly.

About the host

Hosted by Matt Harding

Host profile image
Casa Linda is our passion project, and becoming a vacation rental has allowed us to maintain and improve this historic home for future generations to enjoy. We are constantly updating and refreshing the home and furnishings. We love to visit, and hope you enjoy our little Tucson get-a-way.

Why they chose this property

I purchased Casa Linda in 2003 while living in Tucson. At that time everything south of Congress Blvd was a giant dirt lot. It's amazing to have witnessed the trolley and Mercado move in and breathe new life into Menlo Park.

What makes this property unique

A historic home, with mature native landscaping, an awesome front porch, local art & history throughout the home, and terrific amenities to enjoy the outside.
