Great stay!

We had a wonderful stay at this charming bungalow. Came for family weekend for our son at U of A and brought our 14 year old; the place was great for the two of us and our kiddo. Not far from campus, but also had a nice home feel rather than hotel. Huge backyard. Super cute spot. Would stay again.

Great time in Tucson

This casita is clean with a nice relaxing backyard and front porch. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. The owners communicated well and were responsive to our inquiries. It is close to downtown Tucson and the University of Arizona. There are many restaurants and entertainment venues nearby as well as the Tucson Museum of Art. Also the property is close to hiking trails in the Western Saguaro National Park.
