Authentic Tucson Experience: Mud Adobe Casita Nestled in Canyon Among Wildlife

Nestled inside a boulder studded canyon this adobe casita is the perfect peaceful retreat possessing a commanding view of Tucson. With just under 4 acres to roam, the romance of the location will enchant couples. Possessing the rustic qualities of the classic Tucson adobe style, the massive 16' thick walls of the adobe casita were forged from the earth with adobe blocks made on site.  The casita appears as though it's always been there having grown out of the ground merging seamlessly with the surrounding desert. Adobe construction including passive solar design moderate temperatures in ways unmatched by other building materials providing an unsurpassed level of comfort.  

If you've never slept in an adobe home it may be your best night's sleep yet.  The natural materials of the casita were chosen to effect a calming harmony that will help relax you into a deep slumber at night as the coyotes serenade you to sleep.  Imagine waking fully restored with an energy reminiscent of your childhood.  

The casita features the conveniences of modern living:
•Update Facebook, connect with your family at home via Skype, or just catch up on a TV show you missed on HULU from any room with WIFI. 
•Catch the big game, your favorite soap, or the most popular prime-time shows on a large, flat screen, LED HDTV. 
•Cuddle with loved ones as the wood burning fireplace warms and transforms your nights into a cherished memory.
•Whip up a quick snack using the new microwave then stash the dishes in the new dishwasher. 
•Even though you'll start to miss the casita before you leave, take advantage of the new washer and dryer to pack fresh, clean clothes. 
•Start your morning with a complimentary coffee starter pack.
•The 300+ thread count, organic cotton sheets are a joy to sleep on. Additional linens provided to enhance your comfort.
•With more than 350 days of sunshine, Tucson is the sunniest city in the US. Attached covered parking protects your vehicle.
•For your convenience a hair dryer is stored in the bath vanity. 
•A naturalist library containing numerous field guides to look up your discoveries made during your foray into the surrounding desert. 
•A full kitchen is available for foodies wanting to cook for themselves.

Great place to get away from the city

Casita was great with two bedrooms and plenty of room. Property is starting to show some wear with Leaking faucets, mineral buildup around fixtures, loose tiles, etc. However, the vibe is really cool and the beds comfortable. Place was very clean when we arrived, and I believe we left it clvery clean as well.Would come back, except we like other surrounding areas better and would probably try something different to be closer to the things we like to do.

Idyllic Desert Casita

Loction! Loction! Location! When we pulled up to this casita we knew it was the perfect place for us. As we entered the home we immediately felt peaceful and at home. The home is beautifully designed, decorated, and included quality kitchen items. The casita is located just off the beaten path on a 3 area lot. You are surrounded by nature which we spent much time walking in. Tucson's city lights twinkled in the distance at night. It was perfection and peaceful for us. It truly is a perfect locoation.

Lovely casita in the Sonoran desert

Beautiful casita behind a larger house that felt secluded and great for solitary time in Sonaroan environment. House was lovely, great kitchen and we enjoyed outdoor fires in the evening. Had a question and reached out to the owners who promptly replied and were extremely hospitable. Highly recommend this lovely desert get-away.

Beautiful views!

This was a nice quite place tucked into a beautiful surrounding. Although there is a house 30-40 feet away that was unexpected. If you are on your beautiful porch and they are on there patio it would feel a bit like a close neighbor. They did have some chairs behind the house we went back to watch the sunrise. The hosts were very accommodating as they require a 5 day minimum i think it was, and we only needed 4 so that was nice! They also provided a bag of coffee and chips and salsa, that was great! They provided good directions for getting there and getting in. One thing that may have been nice is a guide with info about the property, with things like what is the little remote thing in the basket with the panic button...? if you want to hike... If you want to have a fire... If you want to grill... Is charcoal provided? We found the garbage bin with stuff, lighter fluid, matches and charcoal for grilling but later determined that the charcoal bag was empty, easy to miss as it looked full when we looked in the bin. Over all it was a great stay clean and comfortable!Thank you!

Absolute desert perfection

My adult son and I have stayed in several Tucson rentals over the past few years and this is by far our favourite. The location was rural enough to enjoy peace and tranquility but within easy reach of everything Tucson has to offer. We will definitely be back depending on availability.

Perfect Stay!

This property was PERFECT my fiancé and I were both obsessed with the location, the casita itself, decor, and the general neighborhood. I HIGHLY recommend following his instructions. The dirt and gravel roads to get to property weren’t TOO bad. We had an SUV and could have managed with a sedan, just drive very slowly due to bumps/rockiness. The beds were comfortable, views were great, kitchen was fully stocked, there was an awesome book and game selection, and amenities were good. This was our first time visiting AZ and 1000% will stay here again if we come back to Tucson.

Saguaro Sentinels guard this Charming Casita

Surrounded by stunning hills and desert beauty, the classic adobe casita offered us a welcoming and beautifully appointed home—a perfect place to enjoy an exciting and adventure-filled area. The spotless and beautifully appointed home provided us with everything we needed. The pictures do not do justice to the charm and warmth one feels during your stay. We have found a wonderful location, and we intend to return again and again. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a stunning and private retreat so near so many adventures!

Wonderful once you get there.

Fantastic once you find the property. Loved every part of my experience here except for landing after dark and trying to navigate to the house at night. Unsettling experience and had to turn around and stay at the casino for the night and wait until day time to find my way. The directions the hosts sends are fine as long as it’s light out. Again - great property once you arrive. Thanks!

Wunderschönes Haus

Das Haus ist wunderschön. Hochwertig eingerichtet. Gemütlich und sauber. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Zu beachten: für die Strasse benötigt man auf jeden Fall einen SUV. Ausserdem ist unmittelbar daneben ein zweites Haus. Wir hatten Glück das es zur Zeit nicht vermietet war. Wir hatten aufgrund der Bilder vermutet das es etwas abseits liegt. Insgesamt war es ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt

Great get-a-way property

We chose this property based on several factors: location, reviews & adventure. Very good choice for us! The Adobe is beautiful & quiet, nice linens & plenty of towels was a bonus. Washer & Dryer too. The all-you-need hot water shower/bath was really a pleasure. Also, Alexa was a very nice surprise! Views were amazing. Everything was very peaceful and relaxing. Would suggest an SUV for the roads. Very easy to drive to Safeway, Walgreens, fast food, etc,

Lovely Casita

Can't get much closer to nature than staying at the Mud Adobe Casita. The views are amazing. Lots of bird song from dawn to dusk, owls hooting in the evenings and the wash in the back yard is covered it footprints from neighborhood nighttime visitors bobcats and javelina's!. The Casita itself is warm and welcoming. Lovely interior and all the comforts of home including very comfortable beds to sleep in. Perfect size for a small family or couple. I really hope to visit again.

Gorgeous, Peaceful, Comfortable

The casita met all my expectations. It is in a gorgeous quiet setting. The king bed was very comfortable and we slept so deep and peaceful every night we were there. It is dark and quiet at night, and the adobe construction was wonderful. We enjoyed the fireplace, and all the special high quality details that this place provided, like nice sheets, towels, cookware, appliances, decor etc. There is another rental house next to the casita, but we felt like we had plenty of privacy and didn’t notice other guests.

Great family get together

Seven of us from 3 generations came from Seattle, Oberlin Ohio and New York to gather in the desert for a big birthday celebration and had both the Casa and Casita to enjoy. It was wonderful. We had stayed at both individually in the past but having both at once was a treat. Our own Tucson Family Compound. As usual, both were clean, comfortable and well equipped. Andrew also arranged for an additional bed to meet our needs. The setting and surrounding landscape is one of the special treats of staying there. So private and so beautiful. Our 11 year old participant led the climb up the "mountain" behind the Casa and Casita. Just an overall great experience.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

Even now nearly 14 years later I still remember the first time we saw the canyon like it was yesterday. It was completely by accident. One Saturday I happened to be working as a real estate agent showing a friend homes in the area. Wanting Rhonda to get to know his family better, for the 1st time in 12 years I brought her along on an appointment with me.

In an attempt to take a short cut to the next house we tried to go through the canyon. As soon as I saw the for sale sign, we stopped so I could get out. The place was completely captivating unlike any other I'd ever seen in Tucson after living here for 40 years and seeing more than a 1000 homes in my 12 year career.

After seeing so many homes it was surprising that only 5 homes or so were truly memorable. This was something that I continued to wonder about throughout my time as an agent. What made those few homes so charming?

We were fortunate to win the property from a competing buyer. Since then we've come to regard ourselves as custodians of this valuable resource including the plants and wildlife it is home to.

In 2008 during an annual family retreat when we gather together to celebrate the past year and share our visions for the coming year, one of our goals was to build a home that our family could use to carry on our tradition.

For 10 years we had been collecting ideas for our dream home largely from multi million dollar homes throughout Arizona that we wanted to somehow incorporate into our more modest budget.

During project planning once again I returned to the question of the source of indefinable charm that only 5 homes in a thousand possess. A builder friend recommended the work of architect Christopher Alexander who studied some of the most loved buildings throughout time in an effort to capture that special quality that makes these structures so appealing.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

Alexander ultimately came to describe this quality as wholeness. Wholeness guided the design of the Firelight Casita with the intent of establishing a strong connection between people, places, and nature. Ageless design elements that span the history of humanity create a sense of belonging of the home to it's surroundings.

According to Alexander there are 151 patterns that form a timeless way of building. So far we've been able to incorporate 112 of them. Hints of the pattern language are included with your welcome email. During your stay see how many you can identify.
