About the host
Your host
We are from Tucson, AZ but live in the Phoenix metro area and we love going to Sonoita and especially to our little house on the prairie. It is set on 40 acres in a gated community and is perched on a hill with 360* views of the Santa Rita Mountains to the west and Whetstone, Mustang, and as far as the Chiricahua Mountains to the east. We love to light the fire in the fireplace and get comfortable while enjoying the scenery, sunset, wildlife, and cool high prairie weather. Sonoita, AZ is a hidden treasure and we are excited to share it with our guests.
Why they chose this property
We love this property because it is a great get-a-way from the hustle bustle of the city, and yet not too far from the city. Tucson and Sierra Vista are only about 45 minutes away and Sonoita is just 10 minutes down the road. White tail deer and prong horn sheep roam the surrounding hills and this is destination for birders from around the world . Did I mention the stunning sunsets? They do not disappoint! Hiking, visiting the burgeoning wine and brewery tasting rooms, the gourmet pizza kitchen, biking, spelunking, fishing and touring the countryside are just a few of the activities in the area. In fact, our property borders Gardner Canyon to the south, so hiking is literally right outside our back door.
What makes this property unique
Our hope is that our guests will enjoy not only the beautiful amenities/finishes inside our home, but also the grand views and big skies that surround it. The wrap around porch offers shade during the day and is a great place to sit in the evening to watch the magnificent sunsets. We have attended to all details to create a unique atmosphere with top of the line finishes for ourselves and our guests including personal art and interior furnishings, comfortable Adirondack porch chairs, a handsome freestanding slate fireplace, granite counter tops, custom bathrooms with cherry cabinets, and beautiful wood/travertine floors. Friends and guests all comment on how wonderful and restful it is and can't believe it is really in Arizona!
