Super clean, comfortable, and appointed with everything we could have possibly needed. My two young kids loved the toys, books, games, and especially the pool. So much space for our whole family to spread out. Beautiful scenic location with views of the mountains. Close to Sabino Canyon—our favorite spot we explored.
Beautiful home in a great location. Mountain Views with convenient access to grocery and shopping. Home is well equipped with everything you need. Also a great home base for bike riding around the scenic areas of Tucson.

Thank you for visiting! So happy you enjoyed your stay. I have to agree, it is a great location. Feels like you're out of the city, but everything you need is still nearby!
We had a great stay with our young kids! Beautiful views and lots of space! The house was well stocked with everything we needed including games, toys and books for the kids to enjoy. We loved that the pool was fenced for safety and heated!
Very well furnished, nice view, wonderful pool area, peaceful, clean, spacious. We were impressed with how much we liked this place. It was nice to have a garage also. This felt a lot more like home than most VRBO’s, I think due to all the furnishings - cleaning supplies, trash bags, dishes, utensils, Kleenex, paper products. Pool was warm, and plenty of toys for kids. Could’ve used a cleaning on bottom, but didn’t bother the kids or I. Overall super nice place we’d be happy to stay again if ever in the area.

Thank you! So glad you enjoyed your stay!
Sorry about the pool. We've been having a little trouble with it over the last few weeks and the pool company realized that the adjustable release on the chemical dispenser had been closed completely (maybe a previous guest adjusted it?). Between that and the spring blossoms on the trees, it's been tricky to keep it clear, but I'm glad you were able to enjoy it anyways!

Simply a stunning location, house is quite large (we needed it for family) and incredibly quiet. Owner was highly engaged and responsive.
The home was well appointed and roomy with all the kitchen tools and dishware needed for a Thanksgiving meal.We appreciated that we were able to bring our dog.My son also brought his astronomy set up and was able to capture the heart nebula from the backyard.

Thank you! I always love when guests can host family gatherings in the home. Thank you so much for staying with us!
We really enjoyed our stay! Andrea is a wonderful host and quick to respond to any questions and/or requests we had. The house was super clean, organized, well furnished, and the kitchen had everything we needed to prep our own meals. The kids loved the pool and neighborhood is really nice and private. We make an annual trip to Tuscon and look forward to staying here again!

Thank you for the enthusiastic review! I'm glad the toys and books were put to use. It's a great space for the kids, but my guests tend to mostly be adults, so it's always fun to have some younger ones for a visit. We'd gladly welcome you back, if you're ever in the area again!
We had a great stay, and the property was perfect. We had no issues, and the property had all the amenities and supplies we needed. The location is great for sightseeing and hiking, with easy access to other areas of the city.

Thank you for visiting and for your great review! We’d love to have you back!
We had a great stay at this property! Andrea was a good host and accommodated all of our needs. The back patio / pool area is fantastic, and you can’t beat the Mountain Views. The location was great for quick access to several great hiking spots. We loved visiting Catalina State park.

I love it when you come visit! Thank you for another wonderful review and we hope to welcome you back soon.
Family flew into Tucson to attend a University of Arizona graduation and this listing was perfect! Andrea was easy to communicate with and the house was spacious enough for us all and had so many fun amenities - we loved bird watching. If you’re thinking of booking it, do it! You won’t regret it
