Great location for a chill family vacation.Quiet neighborhood with downtown, restaurants and both Tuscon Mountain Park & Saguaro National Park (east) in just a quick drive away. Kids loved the pool. This would be a great spot for a multi-family gathering with great space inside and outside the house.
We enjoyed our stay at this well stocked house! The pool and hot tub are fabulous! The host, Steve, was very responsive to all of our questions/requests.
This is a very charming, spacious and comfortable home. The kitchen is well equipped. Everything was clean. Steve is a great host and very responsive. We just had one little issue and it was resolved immediately. I will definitely like to stay here again during a future visit to Tucson.
We stayed at Steve's property while attending a conference in Tucson, and it was perfect for our group of four. The rooms are well appointed, the kitchen/living room area are spacious and comfortable, and the outdoor area is lovely. And the neighborhood is quiet! Steve is an excellent host and was welcoming and helpful. Thank you!
We loved our stay! Super spacious and inclusive for our big family. Great indoor and outdoor spaces for relaxation, games, and family time. Steve was very accommodating and helpful!
Great, attentive host. Lots of room to spread out with 5 bedrooms. Well stocked kitchen. Fabulous back yard. Really enjoyed the hot tub as we had a cooler weather week. Lots of bath and pool towels. Great location with short drive to downtown Tucson and quick access to Tucson Mountain Park with beautiful hikes.
Host was helpful and home had everything you need from pool towels to cookware. Large home with plenty of bathrooms. 5 bedrooms room for 4 couples and a single adult. Master bedroom is the only access to back yard and pool which worked for us but might create privately issues for some. House was tuck away and was very private, but also close to main roads to parks and other activities.
The host was really easy to work with and provided a welcoming home to stay on our vacation. The home was very nice and clean. It was very accommodating for our need of space and plenty stocked with basic needs.
House was very spacious, comfortable & clean! Close to everything we needed. Owner was awesome & so easy to reach with questions! Would definitely stay here again when in town.
The host was great! He made sure everything we asked was done. He also responded quickly to questions we had. The house, yard, and jacuzzi were amazing. We totally enjoyed ourselves. The house had plenty of linens, the beds were comfortable & the kitchen was well stocked.
Steve was a great host. If you need something....just ask. Large home has plenty of room. Clean. Plenty of towels, etc. Wish memory foam was on all beds but still good. Grocery store is very close. Quiet neighborhood and private, away from inner city. But close. Hot tub was a hit. Stayed 17 days. Family did visit. Weather was perfect. Saw a lot of Arizona. Fine host and lovely home.
This house was AWESOME!!! Clean, quiet, beautiful, with plenty of towels, supplies & amenities!! Our host, Steve, was hugely accommodating & quick to respond whenever we needed anything!! Comfy beds, lovely pool & hottub & private backyard! We had 3 vehicles & parking was a bit tight, but it worked!! Pretty close to the Sonora Desert Museum, which was well worth the trip! And just 20 minutes to the airport! We highly recommend!!!
This house is absolutely amazing — the pictures don’t do it justice! The pool and jacuzzi were perfect, and Steve was an outstanding host, checking in often to make sure everything went smoothly. We’ll definitely be booking again.
Everything was amazing!!!We had a small gathering to celebrate my daughter’s 20th birthday.The house was spacious, clean and inviting.All aspects from our booking, check-in and check-out were seamless. Steve was responsive to my messages and provided everything needed for an enjoyable stay. We will definitely book again, soon!!
Great get away for our family! We were in Tucson for a graduation, we had 8 adults staying and decided we should stay together for convenience and more family time! This house was perfect! 5 bedrooms with king and queen size beds, 3 full baths, absolutely fit the bill! The house was clean and well furnished. The pool and hot tub were just the right temperature! Plenty of towels and floats. It was a quiet oasis and we enjoyed our time there immensely. Steve, our host, was a pleasure to work with. Contacting him was easy and he was quick to respond to all my questions. If we are back in Arizona we will gladly stay her again!
The photos do not do the property justice. The outdoors activities are incredible. The pool was a treat, and the hot tub was used constantly. The interior of the house is spacious, clean, well stocked. The kitchen has everything you need, except space for dry goods. There’s no pantry and the outdoor garbage bin had not been emptied and was 2/3 full when we arrived.That is something I would like to see improved. Communication with Steve was excellent. He responded within 1 to 2 hours of all my messages. He did a great job of explaining how to get to the house as well as getting in. We would love to use the house in the future. I highly recommend this rental and I would imagine that anything handled by Steve would be of similar quality.
If you’re staying in Tucson this is definitely the place to pick! Steve was an awesome host and readily answered any questions I had. The house was clean and spacious perfect for a bit of a larger group. The backyard was simply gorgeous. The pool/hot tub was awesome and Steve had many pool floats available. Definitely recommend and I would 100% select this property again.
Best Stocked VRBO we have ever stayed at. It literally has everything and anything you could need. Tons of Towels, Toys, coffee, paper towels, you name it and it was thought of. Excellent place to stay with family the backyard is great, the rooms are large, it's 1.5 away from a Safeway, close to Gates pass for hiking, 14 minutes from UofA. Driveway entrance is a little tricky and I think would be challenging to have multiple cars pulling in and out, but that in no way would detract from what a great place it is.
We booked this home for a birthday party celebration and it couldn’t have more perfect! The house was clean, organized, and very spacious. It also is a great location that offers privacy but very close to many stores/food & the freeway. I would definitely stay here again. Finally, Steve is such a considerate host, always a text away & very helpful.
Thank you Steve for letting us stay in your beautiful home!! Very cozy, self contained, very clean and spacious great location and nice private area! We had a great time at the pool kids loved it, nice warm jacuzzi, plenty of towels for our big family that’s definitely a plus. Bbq was also a plus to hang out with your family! Will recommend and definitely looking forward to come back in the future!
We had an incredible stay with our multi generation family. Our son graduated from U of A and the house was perfect for our small gathering! Very spacious and everything you would think you need is there for you. The backyard is wonderful and we did use both the pool and hot tub. Steve was very responsive to any of our questions and we wouldn’t hesitate to stay again!
My family and I wanted to do something special for our sons 40 birthday so we rented this beautiful home and had a surprise birthday gathering for him and was a very great turn out everyone had a great time place very clean with all amenities and more Steve is a very pleasant host and very quick to respond to messages We wiould love to stay again
Everything needed and more was provided. The kids loved the pool and hot tub. The large inflatable pool toys were a huge hit too! A crib and toys were supplied for the baby. The pool is gated and there is a play area. It is a great spot for a multigenerational stay. The owner was very responsive and helpful.
