Lovely home in a beautiful historic neighborhood.
10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2025
Erica was an excellent host in all aspects of our stay including communication, answering questions and providing very useful info. She was very responsive to all of our needs in terms of using the property. It is clear and obvious that she works hard and takes great pride in her property. We could not have asked for anything more.
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2025
Check in and check out we’re seamless. One minor operator error with the heat system but the host was super “on it” and came over immediately. Plenty of towels, every kitchen appliance and piece of cooking equipment you could possibly need. Full spice cabinet, LOTS of travel artifacts, books and games. She thought of everything! Arrived to a sweet note, water, snacks, bottle of wine, lights on. Beautiful cozy place to stay with ole Thank you of outdoor space for morning coffee or a nice meal!
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2025
The home is ideally located in the heart of Tucson, blocks from the U of A campus. Our host, Erica, was very gracious, welcoming and offered recommendations on key points of interest and cultural events. The historic home has charm and character, without being pretentious. The outdoor courtyard and patio areas provided for pleasant relaxation in a garden sanctuary. Exceeded our expectations.
