Beautiful house
the place is an amazing home with a mid-century modern style. Greatly enjoyed the desert environment. The amenities are nice - good to be able to use the grill. The shower is also very nice. Only criticism is booking on vrbo entailed paying a booking fee on vrbo and vacasa, the company that manages the property. Book directly through vacasa to avoid this.

Desert Escape
For the most part we enjoyed our 2-week stay at 2850 Sunrock Lane. The neighborhood offers privacy and relief from city traffic while still having easy access to Tucson. There are several desert hiking areas within a 10-minute drive; Old Tucson and the superb Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum are less than 20 minutes away. A pleasant patio looks out onto a “backyard” of natural desert vegetation and occasional wildlife. The scenic views from the home, especially of the Catalina Mountains to the northeast, are beautiful! However, viewing from inside the home is marred by dingy windows.
The home heating system and available appliances are adequate except for the electric oven, which did not work. (The cooktop is fine.) The toaster and coffeemaker are exceptionally good. The bed and pillows in the master bedroom are comfortable.
The home has a couple of annoying quirks. Frequent structural noises (daily expansion and contraction?) were infrequently loud enough to wake us at night. (These were not sounds coming from the HVAC system, which were not bothersome at all.) Also, adult males will find the water level in the toilet to be annoyingly high.
