Very nice! The casita was exactly as pictured and described. Rustic but very clean and comfortable, quiet and peaceful, close and convenient to groceries, shopping, and Saguaro National Park. The fenced yard was perfect for our dog, along with the short walk to the Tanque Verde wash. Sandy was a great host, very informative and accommodating, we had everything we needed for our stay. We're looking forward to returning next year.

Nice Tucson Getaway

The little casita was just what we needed to be close to some relatives we visited. It's a cute little spot out of town with a very western feel.

Thank you to Sandra for excellent directions, responsiveness and friendliness. The casita was comfortable and quiet. The fenced guard was a delightful surprise and perfect for my dogs.

We loved this place and will ABSOLUTELY be back. We had our privacy without hearing and road noise or even neighbors. Everyone is very respectful and kind. The pool was clean and inviting. It was nice having a full kitchen to cook and reheat some food.

El Mesqital

The guest ranch property was very nice, set in a mesquite grove. The unit I stayed in was somewhat outdated, but very clean and comfortable. Checkin was easy. I would definitely stay here again.

Hidden Gem

This property is so wonderful that I’ve extended my stay. If you want to be surrounded by nature, this is the place for you. My casita is adorable. It has everything that you could want. The property manager,Sandy, took me on a tour. She makes sure that you have everything you need.

Off the Beaten Path

The casita was very comforted. Enjoyed eating outside on the patio. Close to shopping and attractions yet a quiet and private setting. The address given is for the access road to the property not the property itself. The numbering system is out of order making the property a little tricky to find, but Sandy is very kind and gracious. We enjoyed our stay.
