Hidden Gem

This beautiful home is tucked in a quiet little neighborhood , close to the UofA campus and several restaurants and stores. There was plenty of space and games/activities for the whole family. The pool was great, but as luck would have it, the weather was a little chillier than normal, so we didn’t get as much pool time as we had hoped! Overall wonderful stay with simple and comfortable decor.

Fantastic Property

Stay here was close to family, thus excellent choice for the 4 of us. Well stocked with coffee, tea, spices. Hard to say anything bad about it. Only 1 idea to make it even more outstanding would be to replace the mattress on the lower pull out bed of the room with the 2 beds ~ it’s too squishy. Otherwise it’s the best house I ever rented.

Overall impression of this property is outstanding. The host has gone above and beyond with considerate small touches that make a big impact on your stay. Coffee, snacks, and spices are just a few of the conveniences. The house and outdoor areas are very clean and lots of natural light. Campus is a quick 11 minute walk.

Wonderful

This is the perfect property for a stay in Tucson! We came to the area to visit the University and take in a volleyball game and a football game. The location of the house is such that it was just a quick walk to both. The house exceeded our expectations. It is decorated and furnished with such attention to detail that you feel so comfortable and taken care of. Everything you could need is provided. Coffee, bottled water and snacks were much appreciated by all members of our family. Amy was a fabulous host. She checked in with us to make sure we were all settled and asked if we needed anything. We loved the putting green and the safe neighborhood. I would recommend this property to anyone staying in Tucson. Thank you, Amy!
