The house and grounds are unbelievable ; with beautiful views of Catalina mountains from every window in the house. We stay in a lot of Vrbo’s but this one was our absolute favorite! Hiking trails to petroglyphs right out the door, bonfires at night,suppers on covered porch. We will be back!

A little piece of paradise
Neil and Jenny were the nicest kindest people ever. So helpful on directions and even recommendations on places to eat that were very delicious. The home was magical and very comfortable. You have zero stress with the comfort of the home, the outside sitting and walking paths, the pool/hot tub, and the sound of nature you see from multiple different levels of various sitting areas. As long as Neil is sharing his home, we will only stay here. Coming back with our grown children soon!!!

We have booked for next year
I think the title of this review says it all. This was our seventh year of renting a property in Tucson and this property is our favorite by far. Everything in the description is true. As hikers we loved the close proximity to Catalina State park and that it is possible to also hike right from the house and access trails going to Catalina park through the Coronado forest. Our favorite room was the living room with its incredible fireplace, beautiful views of the mountains beyond the backyard pool and beautiful wood beams which are not merely decorative but truly structural. As the major cook I really enjoyed the kitchen. The knives are actually sharp! Unfortunately all five of us got a cold and/or Covid!(Typical of family gatherings). So we needed to isolate for a while and we all felt very comfortable here and enjoyed the privacy and seclusion of this amazing house. There are special little areas all around the house to just sit and enjoy the quiet, listening and looking for local birds. And though you have a feeling of isolation, groceries, gas, and traffic are less than 10 minutes away. We met Neil and were impressed at how much he wanted us to really enjoy his property and would do everything he could to make sure anything that needed attention was taken care of as soon as possible while always being very respectful of our privacy. To be clear, everything did work while we were there or was quickly repaired or replaced. We’re excited that we’ll be back next year!

Staying here feels like you're in another world
Anyone who owns a home knows that every now and then it seems a lot of things go wrong at once and a few things did go wrong while we were staying but Neil was always quick to have somebody come and fix whatever it was. A big one was the heating/ cooling system for the house. Another was the heating system for the pool. Both were taken care of within a few days and we all had a very enjoyable stay. The views from the house are beautiful and the ambiance of the house itself, especially the great room make just staying home a pleasure. The kitchen is easy to use. I found the induction stove to be especially wonderful for cooking. There's a great collection of pans, though a large pot for steaming or spaghetti would be a good addition. The grill is excellent

Beautiful house with great views
Loved the place. Very private. Views are incredible. I knew it was mountain views but WOW....they are in your face mountains that impress you every time you look up. Loved the hikes out the door and nearby 20-40 min drive to other longer hikes. Neal was great to work with as well!

Magnificent Mountain View
Extraordinary home and property with breathtaking views of the Santa Catalina Mountains. Be sure to drive to the top of Mount Lemmon and also visit the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. Loved the pool and hot tub. Neil was a great host and explained the history of the home and area and provided many ideas for places to visit. Not enough time to do them all. Plan to return soon.

Fantastic house with pool and scenery
Absolutely would come back to this beautiful place! House has dramatic architecture and the decor is comfortable and inviting. Pool is a joy day or night with fountains and fire pits. Place is very private with large grounds and gorgeous mountain views. Neil is very accommodating and lives here part-time. Apparently we were the first guests of the season and not everything was ready when we arrived. This was slightly inconvenient but Neil added a day to our stay at no charge as compensation. Gravel road was not an issue, even after a heavy rain. Restaurants, stores and a state park are nearby.

A True Gem!
This property far exceeded our expectations! Neil could not be more kind or accommodating. It is a gift that he shares this property. It was clean, comfortable, spacious, and special. Indoor and outdoor kitchen gathering areas are the best for friends to let the hours pass by. And the pool, oh my goodness, the pool! It’s spectacular! Most hours that weren’t spent golfing were spent in this amazing pool. Also, the rooftop views must be mentioned.. especially the sunsets. :) We are only hopeful that Neil will have us back!!

Oasis in the desert
We spent a week at this amazing house during record breaking heat. The house, pool, view and location are all spectacular! We were looking for a private retreat and this house was it. The architecture and decor are remarkable. Neil was there to welcome us and went out of his way to help make the week rememberable by allowing my daughter time with his horse. The last mile to the house is a dirt road. We were happy to have rented an SUV.

Beautiful location. Remote enough but not too far from town. Keep in mind you do need to take a 10 minute dirt road to get there but that’s what makes it special. . Property is clean, well equipped, beds are comfortable and. pool features are stunning. Neil takes great pride in his home. We enjoyed our stay immensely.

Beautiful property and so relaxing!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Neil’s house. The home is beautifully decorated, very spacious, all the kitchen utensils you need, and a wonderful gas grill to make dinners. The pool was heated and sparkling as well as easy to open and close with just a switch of a button. The waterfall and fire features are super easy to turn on and off with the use of an app.
We always travel with our two large Weimaraner’s and the property was perfect for the city dogs to act like farm dogs! The llamas next-door and the jack rabbits were a treat for our two dogs.
Neil was a wonderful host and readily available to help us find restaurants, golf courses, and just to chat.
Overall we had an extremely relaxing and enjoyable time and we will definitely be back.

Week in the dessert
The property was gorgeous both inside and the outside pool. There were hiking trails from the property with a variety of dessert plants, llamas, rabbits and cows! The kitchen was stocked with an abundance of cookware, dishes, spices and staples. The location was great to tour the Sonora Desert Museum, Tucson and Catalina State Park. Both couples and two dogs had a wonderful time.

Beautiful place in the foothills
Perfectly relaxing, nestled back in the foothills of the Catalinas and surrounded by mesquite trees, we couldn't have asked for a better place to get out of the city. It's just over 5 minutes from the grocery, and there's plenty of other food options within a short drive. The place itself is incredible. Fantastic architecture, private locale, great kitchen, and a big, lighted pool. Hopefully we'll find our way back here!

Wow!
This house surpasses the description, and Neil was perhaps the kindest and most responsive host in our vrbo experience. Super responsive, detailed and informative. Star gazing from the hot tub or from the hidden upper deck with lights down was amazing. Saltwater pool is really nice. Super private but 5 minutes from Bashas market, tennis, hiking, horseback riding, and world class mountain biking in the Chutes out the back door. Great for a family stay....we will be back.
Thank you Neil!!!!

Beautiful house in beautiful location
Beautiful setting and a beautiful house which is, for once, nicer than the photos . Light everywhere and distinctive furnishings . Sizeable pool and lovely deck area.
Neil the owner could not be more responsive and helpful. We had an issue with pool heating and he had someone come over the next morning.
One thing to be awere of is that only the master has an ensuite bathroom and the whole layout is quite open even for the master. So this is a place for connection, not a place for privacy, though there is an entirely separate media room if you do need a break!
Definitely recommend strongly and would love to stay here again

Desert Oasis
I have to start by making two points: (1) my family and I are well-traveled vacationers, and our favorite type of vacation is renting a nice home in a picturesque location; and (2) I don't write reviews...never. My thinking had always been that since we typically stay at highly-rated homes--already with many reviews--my feedback would be lost in the noise of many other favorable reviews.
That said, it would be an absolute shame not to share my feedback on what was my family's favorite vacation to date. Truly, this home has everything and more that someone could want out of a vacation, from the pool (heated, well maintained, and with all of the amenities), to the mountain and desert views (second to none), to the location (the genuine feeling of being remote and off the grid, yet only a five minute drive to a very nice grocery store and a Starbucks, 15 minutes to any other kind of shopping you could want, 45 minutes to the airport, at the base of Mount Lemmon, bordering a tremendous state park, and surrounded by hiking and biking trails). However, what makes all of this even more compelling is the owner, who greeted my family and me to provide a tour of the home and an introduction to his horses. On top of that, he was incredibly helpful at all hours of the day and night with our questions and had fantastic recommendations about restaurants, activities, and the area in general.
The pictures don't do the home or the location justice, as it is a home that has to be seen and experienced to be appreciated, and it is one we hope to appreciate again!
