Perfect Family Friendly Retreat
We loved our stay! The house had all the amenities that made it feel like a home away from home. We appreciated all the extra kitchen appliances (instapot, crock-pot, blender), the outdoor games, and the pool floats. The backyard was our favorite part and we loved hearing all the animals howl at night! The host had excellent communication and she was very responsive. Thanks for a great experience.

Family Trip
We had a great time staying at this beautiful property. It had everything we needed for a large family with 5 kids ranging from 3 to 8. We’ll definitely look to stay there again next time we’re in town visiting family!

A great setting for our family
The house was clean, modern and spacious. The host has lots of little touches that made the stay so comfortable - robes, phone chargers, coffee. The beds and linens were good quality. The location was good for hiking east saguaro park and bear canyon. The pool was a little chilly but we managed a few very quick dips. It was perfect for our extended family gathering of 6 adults and 1 teenager.

Wonderful Family Stay
Our extended family gathered here to celebrate a birthday and have some time together during the school February break. The short summary is that we had a great time and would highly recommend. The house was immaculately clean and well organized - even house instructions (lights, pool, etc.) and local recommendations are presented as wall art, nicely formatted and presented. Kitchen is fully-equipped; with coffee any way you want to make it, new appliances, and even an XL dutch oven (which we used to make carnitas). Beds were comfy, and each bedroom with own bathroom. Air hockey and shuffleboard were fun indoor activities, and large dining room table for feasting/playing games. Outdoor spaces were spacious and clean - plenty of great spots to sit outside and read or relax. Pool is cold (about 60 degrees during out stay) in February but we swam anyway. Hot tub is a nice touch. Grill area was lovely, with tiled countertops and a full sink. Able to see lots of stars right from the backyard, and the wildlife is right outside the fence. We took a couple of walks along the wash which runs behind the property and saw javelinas, coyotes, hummingbirds, a roadrunner and heard a great horned owl. Really, really cool. Plenty to do in Tucson only a few minutes away - we recommend the Desert Museum and the Pistoleros show. Tucson/Sonoran Desert is a unique place in the world, and this is a great place to stay to experience it.

About the host

Hosted by Laurel and Brian Collins

Host profile image
We are a busy family of four. We love to travel, go hiking and and hang with friends and family. We are excited to share our property with you!

Why they chose this property

This beautiful corner of Tucson has the best of both worlds - it's convenient to restaurants and shops, but also feels "out" in a natural desert landscape and at the base of the Catalina mountains. We love how secluded it feels, even though it's in a neighborhood. And it is just SO quiet and dark at night!

What makes this property unique

We've designed the home to be both beautiful and functional with lots of spaces to relax and connect while soaking up the desert sun and views.

We love to cook and enjoy time with family and friends over a meal - the kitchen is well-stocked for your convenience.

Laurel works remote and understands the importance of having a comfortable space with high speed wi-fi; we have 3 workstations in the home.
