We so enjoyed our stay, the accommodations, the location, the communication with the owner and backup person that we booked for 7 weeks 2027. The backyard and patio were large, perfect for sitting, reading and letting the dog wander to his hearts content. The front yard and rear landscape were so pleasing to the eye. Having a garage is always a positive. The neighborhood is pleasantly walkable. A coffee shop and two excellent restaurants are just a few blocks away. This rental is more than deserving of the five stars.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
I'm originally from Phoenix, but Tucson is my adopted home town. My family and I lived here for 7 years before moving abroad for work. We come back most summers for the great weather :) and to reconnect with family, friends, and tacos.

Why they chose this property

The historic Blenman-Elm neighbor is a Tucson gem. There's a strong desert vibe, but you're also close to everything. My partner and I both received our graduate degrees from the University of Arizona and were able to bike to campus.

What makes this property unique

Our outdoor space really embodies the local desert. We have outside dining and seating and gas fire pit and grill. We've enjoyed some wonderful outdoor times with our parents, our friends, or just hanging out as family.
