Pleasurable stay in the Catalina Foothills
Our stay was very enjoyable. The property was just perfect for the 5 of us. We made very good use of the large and well stocked kitchen. The outside covered patio provided shade for a perfectly placed pool to cool off from the AZ sun. The hosts were very responsible and pleasant. If the opportunity presents itself again, we will not hesitate to stay here again.
