Wonderful!
The casita was just right for my husband and I! Greer was there to greet us and show us around the property when we arrived and was an awesome host. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook and the bed was very comfortable. The area is very quiet and peaceful! We can't wait to return to Greer's place next year!

Wonderful stay!
The Ranchita has a lovely desert setting and our stay in the bunkhouse was enjoyable. The property owner was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed while still giving us our privacy. The bed is quite comfortable and there is plenty of room in the large walk-in closet. The Attractions Coupon Book provided by the owner was helpful in finding places to visit and things to do at reduced admission price. Overall a wonderful stay!

Very quiet, picturesque, an oasis away from the noise and traffic of the city.
The owner lives on property and is very friendly and accommodating. The bunkhouse is away from the main house and you have total privacy. My husband and I have spent the last two winters in the bunkhouse and would definitely return.

Nice rural setting
Worked out well with having a dog. Everything you need is there. Oro Valley has a lot to offer in the area.

Great place to stay in Tucson
This was our second time renting the Bunkhouse. The fact we've stayed there twice should say a lot about the property. It provides us with the options we need (laundry, dishwasher and Internet) and is alway clean. It's also a great size for those 6 week stays. It's on the northwest side of the city and close to the highway if you want to drive up to Phoenix, or down to the border. There are 100's of restaurants to pick from and lots of hiking nearby. Greer is great at making suggestions on what what to do, and if anything goes wrong with the Bunkhouse she fixes it quickly. Of the 3 rentals we stayed in, this is the best.

You Don't Have to be a Cowboy to Enjoy the Bunkhouse
We stayed at the Bunkhouse during the month of January, 2018 and really enjoyed our time there. The location is good, close to Arthur Pack Park and the Crooked Tree golf course. Still a nice feeling of being away from it all on dead-end road. Apartment in the main house was available for our friends to visit us. Would love to stay here again. Greer is the greatest.

Wonderful Vacation Rental
We enjoyed the warm reception we received when checking into the ranchita. The ranchita is nicely decorated, clean, spacious and has everything that one could need. The ranchita is private, with a picturesque outdoor area perfect for relaxing and taking in the birds, bunnies and mountain views. Location is close to a number of hiking areas and downtown. By taking the highway we were downtown in around 20 minutes. Wi-fi is fast and consistent. The property owner Greer is warm and is available when needed, but considerate of personal space. All in all, a wonderful property with great attention to detail and would not hesitate to recommend!

Tucson Treasure
The Bunkhouse is private, well appointed, and beautiful. There is access to laundry facilities too! While the surroundings make you feel as if you are in the heart of the desert, the Bunkhouse is close to entertainment, shopping, and tourist attractions. The owner is helpful and gives you all the privacy you need. This property is also gated, which makes you feel safe and secure. I wish I never had to leave!

Quiet retreat. Close to scenic attractions and golf. Owner very responsive and hospitable.
The small private house met our needs, well furnished and comfortable with quail, other birds and rabbits to watch. Loved the hot tub and BBQ area. Hospitality was great! Tucson exceeded our expectations. So much to do and see.
