The bunkhouse was clean and cozy, making us feel right at home. The air conditioner worked great and kept the space at a perfect temperature. They even let us enjoy some of the ripe grapefruit and oranges from the tree outside, and told us about a nearby nest of newly hatched owlets we could watch- such a special touch!

The Bunkhouse met all our needs! It is nicely appointed, and the hosts have included lots of special touches so that we felt like we were at home. The air conditioning and outdoor pool were must haves in the unseasonably hot weather we experienced! If we are in the Tucson area again, we will definitely book the Bunkhouse!

We loved how close the house was to Saguaro National Park where we did lots of hiking. The kitchen was fully equipped for cooking but ate all of our meals out with the many Mexican food trucks in the area. Loved picking oranges & grapefruit off the trees in the yard for afternoon snacks. Lou & Oz were such welcoming, kind people & have the bunkhouse decorated so cute! The pool in their backyard was so beautiful & wonderful to relax in & by after mornings hiking. So nice of them to share that gem with their guests! Nice front porch on the bunkhouse to relax on & enjoy the sunsets!! Would highly recommend this place!!

We enjoyed our stay in the bunkhouse! We loved that it was quiet & the fresh orange & grapefruit were a bonus! Even though the pool wasn’t heated we enjoyed it during the 90 degree days. Also enjoyed hearing the owl at night. Having access to a washer & dryer was nice after all our hiking.

Everything was so clean with great amenities. It's a very warm and inviting place. Ozzy and Lou came to welcome us. They're great! Our favorite part was sitting on the deck. Very peaceful and relaxing. The location is great since it's right off the main road, however, it felt like we were far away from it with all of the space and privacy that's found on the property. Would definitely stay here again!!

The hosts are friendly and welcoming and have thought of just about everything a guest could need or want. The property is well-supplied with every necessity and there is a good selection of books, movies and even puzzles.

What a beautiful property! When we pulled in we were immediately met by the Hosts who were gracious and welcoming! The kitchen was well stocked and easy to prepare meals. The focal point of our stay was the front porch! What a Time Suck! In the morning while it's still cool(we went in July) we would have our tea and plan our day! What with the Hummingbirds flying all around and watching the rabbits and other wildlife it could take hours just to leave! Time Suck! Then in the evening, it's the sunset that does you in, because it goes on for hours! Also, this location is superb! It's not in Tucson proper, but off the beaten path

Paradise in Picture Rocks

Lou and Ozzie are fabulous hosts. They go out of their way to make your stay at, (The Bunkhouse) an amazing experience. They also give you your space on the property. Their attention to detail is spot on, as far as what they include in The Bunkhouse for your stay. The area is rural and quiet but you are not far from Marana or Tucson. I have yet to meet hosts that are as accepting as these two. 10 out of 10.

Prime location to Saguaro National Park West!

The best thing about The Bunkhouse is the location. Many different trails in the National park can be accessed within only a 4 to 14 minute drive. I think we hiked or ran them all! WE LOVED Saguaro West and were happy to see the saguaros in bloom! This mobile home was a good size for 2, with one of us using the bedroom and the other using the living room . Apparently (according to my 24 year old daughter) the pull out bed from the couch was not very comfortable, as one might expect, so I wouldn’t want to sleep on it for more than a week. The bed in the bedroom was great, though. Nice to be able to use the owner’s pool area, and to have easy parking. We never even tried turning on the tv’s. We felt very safe and welcome here. Oh, be sure to stop for groceries at the first WalMart you see after leaving the airport because shopping near The Bunkhouse is very limited. If you’re looking for a peaceful, no-frills and affordable place to stay that is near the national park… The Bunkhouse is it! P.S. No need to set a morning alarm. The goofy birds (hooded orioles?) will wake you up by frantically pecking on all your windows EVERY morning during the hour of sunrise!

Mountain Bunkhouse

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our months’ stay in Picture Rocks, near Saguaro National Park!, Sonoran Desert Museum and Old Tucson! The hosts were very welcoming and helpful during our stay, the bunkhouse came very well equipped and the owners even gave us fresh oranges from their orange trees. The property is very beautiful and well maintained, The owners have a pool behind their home (directly across from Bunkhouse) which they are happy to share, along with allowing guests to use their washer and dryer! Tucson and area is about a 20-30 minute drive. The internet is sometimes slow, but that’s to be expected up in the mountains. Overall, the setting is beautifully quiet with easy access to hiking.the mountains!
