Perfect for Families
This property is perfect for a family, especially if another adult is joining you as a guest. The two master suites are ideal for keeping the family on one side and creating a separate space for another adult. There are plenty of beds and room to spread out. My teenage boys enjoyed the game room and playing bags outside. The neighborhood is safe and quiet with pretty views of the mountains. There's always lots of driving when you are getting around Tucson, but this property is located in a good spot for enjoying the mountains and the city. The communication was timely and responsive and we would stay here again.

Perfectly comfortable
We felt just like at home. The house is well furnished, with attention to all the little details for a superior experience. We enjoyed the coffee and espresso machine, blender, and kitchen equipment, the white noise machines in the room, and the plentiful towels.I was with a group of cyclists, and the large lobby made it easy to get in and out with a few bikes.Communication with the owner was quick and easy. Laurel made sure we had enough supplies.My only tiny little bummer was that the pool isn't heated, but as the temperature rose, it wasn't an issue.Will book again, thank you !

Perfect Family Getaway
The house is an amazing retreat for family reunions. The bedrooms coupled with en suite bathrooms allow for privacy, but the outdoor public space provides ample opportunity for lounging by the pool and sipping a drink around the fire pit in the evening. The grandkids enjoyed air hockey and sand shuffleboard and the many games provided. Laurel was an hospitable hostess and patiently answered all my questions!

Tucson family vacation
The house was perfect for our family vacation and exceeded our expectations. It is well located for all of the outdoor activities that we had planned, and is an easy ride to downtown and major highways. We also appreciated the convenient access to a grocery store and several restaurants. Mountain views and sunsets from the patio are amazing!

Everything about our stay was incredible - the property itself is immaculate and just as pictured in the listing photos. The house is warm and welcoming, and there are so many small details that have been included that it truly feels like you’re staying at a spa. Laurel, the host, was particularly kind and accommodating when we made a last minute mistake with our booking. We couldn’t have had a better week here.

Perfect Home Base for a Soccer Tournament Weekend!
We recently stayed at this VRBO in Tucson for a soccer tournament—a group of three dads and our daughters—and it was fantastic! The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. The host was incredibly friendly and helpful, providing us with great recommendations and ensuring we had everything we needed.
What stood out most was the abundance of information about local activities and attractions, making exploring the area between games easy. The location was beautiful, with amazing views, and the space was perfect for our group to unwind after a busy day.
I highly recommend this VRBO for anyone visiting Tucson—whether for a tournament or just a getaway. It was a great home base for our trip!

A great setting for our family
The house was clean, modern and spacious. The host has lots of little touches that made the stay so comfortable - robes, phone chargers, coffee. The beds and linens were good quality. The location was good for hiking east saguaro park and bear canyon. The pool was a little chilly but we managed a few very quick dips. It was perfect for our extended family gathering of 6 adults and 1 teenager.

Wonderful Family Stay
Our extended family gathered here to celebrate a birthday and have some time together during the school February break. The short summary is that we had a great time and would highly recommend.
The house was immaculately clean and well organized - even house instructions (lights, pool, etc.) and local recommendations are presented as wall art, nicely formatted and presented. Kitchen is fully-equipped; with coffee any way you want to make it, new appliances, and even an XL dutch oven (which we used to make carnitas).
Beds were comfy, and each bedroom with own bathroom. Air hockey and shuffleboard were fun indoor activities, and large dining room table for feasting/playing games.
Outdoor spaces were spacious and clean - plenty of great spots to sit outside and read or relax. Pool is cold (about 60 degrees during out stay) in February but we swam anyway. Hot tub is a nice touch. Grill area was lovely, with tiled countertops and a full sink.
Able to see lots of stars right from the backyard, and the wildlife is right outside the fence. We took a couple of walks along the wash which runs behind the property and saw javelinas, coyotes, hummingbirds, a roadrunner and heard a great horned owl. Really, really cool.
Plenty to do in Tucson only a few minutes away - we recommend the Desert Museum and the Pistoleros show.
Tucson/Sonoran Desert is a unique place in the world, and this is a great place to stay to experience it.
