I was sincerely shocked at how nice and peaceful my stay was at this property and I am soooooooo happy I picked a place on the edge of Tucson than in city proper (I stayed in city proper later and hated it). Each casita has its own private outdoor space, which as a traveler with dogs was so nice for the puppies. And the shared outdoor area is absolutely incredible. I got to cook dinner on the grill, sit in the sun and read, or relax in the hot tub at night when things cooled off.Plus the National Park, Sabino Canyon and the scenic drive to Summerville are all a quick 10-15 drive away. If you want to get into Tucson the foothills are right near by with tons of great dining options.The other things that was simply wonderful is having the giant nature preserve just steps away. But if you didn't want to go to the nature preserve, just walking and/or biking around the giant, well lit, safe neighborhood is just as nice. Nevermind nearby there are all kinds of cute farm animals to say hi to along the way. Despite having adjacent visitors, the properties all have great sound privacy and everyone is happy to be there and very friendly. The grounds are beautiful and have some really beautiful artwork/sculptures.THIS is the place you want to stay if you are visiting Tucson because you get the best of everything and a wonderful place to relax, unwind, take in the stars at night.

We enjoyed our stay in Casita A. It's a beautiful property and the common areas made us feel at home. We utilized outdoor dining/kitchen and sitting areas as well as hot tub. Our dog was welcomed and enjoyed the outdoor space, too.Hosts we're awesome and attentive to any concerns.

This is a lovely property. There was initially difficulty getting check in information. I needed to call the listing agent to explain my concerns. They gave me a phone number to contact the owner directly. The owner responded promptly and the instructions. All further communication was perfect. He even brought a hairdryer that was missing from the property. As for the property, it’s beautiful. As noted in the listing, it had a communal outdoor kitchen, hot and gym. This unit ( Casita A) has a private covered outdoor sitting area. Perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktail. The property was very clean, the kitchen was well stocked, the bed was comfortable and the shower was wonderful.
6 / 10Average·Mar 2023
Location and access to local stores and restaurants was good. Quiet neighborhood, easy access to walking trail. Outside sitting furniture needs cleaning and repair/replacement, hot tubs dirty and in need of updating. Kitchen, living room and bedroom lights flickered constantly, kitchen lighting dim, hard to see. Used toaster and lights dimmed. Carpet was very worn, couch dirty, sagging, needs to be replaced. Bathroom floor dirty, smelled like animal feces, the whole place had a strong animal odor. Removed mattress pad, too dirty to sleep on. Quilt was torn. WiFi and dish tv were spotty at best, worse during rain showers. No instructions on how to use tv remotes, had to call host and have her talk us through resetting system. Would not recommend for the price.
