The studio is located on the road to Mount Lemmon, a popular cyclists route. A ride by car or bike to the mountain top village of Summerhaven reveals some of the most breathtaking vistas in the country. In Summerhaven, the elevation = 7,700 ft. and it is about 30º cooler! You will find running streams and ponds along hiking trails throughout the forested sky island, as well as great eateries. Mount Lemmon Ski Valley is nearby.

Hike nearby Sabino Canyon or take the new tram passed swimming holes and streams running most of the year.

Redington Pass has spectacular views along a trail that goes down to the falls, and the San Pedro River.

Colossal Cave Mountain Park is nearby, and offers several levels of guided tours through the natural wonder.

The San Javier Mission is a worthwhile visit. Then, take a desert-highway ride south, back in history, to the artisan village of Tubac, and the mission at Tumacácori.

Head north of the city to Biosphere 2, for a tour of their research in earth sciences, and on to the ruins of the Hohokum palace in Casa Grande.

Visit the amazing Pima Air and Space Museum, Kitt Peak National Observatory, Madera Canyon or Patagonia, The Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, Tucson Museum of Art (and many others).

Experience desert wilderness in the Saguaro National Parks -- visit Gates Pass for spectacular sunsets. For cyclists, there are miles of paths surrounding the city, or the challenging Mount Lemmon!

Save a day for Tombstone, and the historic mining town of Bisbee.

The Old Pueblo is as relaxing or exciting as you make it. The restored mansions of El Precidio Historic District, and charming adobe row houses of Barrio Historico are within walking distance to downtown, famous for its eateries, shopping and entertainment.

Tucson is a gastronomic star, with a lively local music scene, national and international music and theater. You'll find elegant casinos on the Pascua Yaqui, and Tohono O'odham Nations lands.

There are seasonal attractions like The Tucson Gem and Mineral Show - largest in the world, fairs and the rodeo.

Getaway in the desert

We found the property to be in a great area of Tucson away from the congestion of the city but close to restaurants and stores. It is also just a few minutes from the major natural attractions in the eastern, quite part of the city including Sabina Canyon, the My. Lemon highway , and the eastern section of the National park. The rental was immaculately clean and well ordered and the owner responsive and helpful. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the Casita to any party wishing to visit Tucson and wanting to avoid the hotel experience particularly if you want to experience the desert parks on the east side of the city.

Clean & Comfortable Close to Cycling Routes

We enjoyed our stay! We are retired and wanted to check out the cycling in Tucson. The condo is on the route to Mount Lemon and close to the 100-mile bike path. There are lots of good restaurants and other things to do. We will go back again and stay longer.

Very nice stay

Very private, cozy and convenient to outdoor activities such as Sabino Canyon, Saguaro NP and Mt Lemmon. Very close to stores and restaurants. We hope to stay here again in the future. Only downside is it can be hard to find the property, especially at night.

About the host

Hosted by Wanda Lauerman

Dear Travelers, We're from New Jersey, and enjoyed all things good about being located in between Manhattan, Philadelphia and the Jersey shore. I am a graduate of The Newark School of Fine and Industrial Arts. The arts, writing and music have been my life's passions. Many career path changes and finally a decision to head west have led me to Tucson, where my family and I are loving desert life.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because it is very private, surrounded by the natural, verdant desert and mountains on the east side of town. We see and hear a lot of wildlife. Coyotes, roadrunners, quail, javelina, bob cats, deer, rabbits, and an amazing variety of birds thrive in the Sonoran desert. We even have a camel in our neighborhood! We are on the road to Catalina Mountain! If you are a cyclist, love to hike, ski or just want to have lunch after taking in some of the most breathtaking vistas in the US, Summerhaven on Catalina Mountain is for you. It is 7,700 feet above sea level, and 20-30 degrees cooler than the desert.

What makes this property unique

Our pueblo-style house is very private. There are acres between neighbors here. The studio is comfortable and welcoming. There is plenty of space in the garage for our guests' car, and more available outside. Stunning mountain and cactus garden views can be seen from every window. Nights are darker here and the shooting stars are amazing! It only takes about 20 minutes to get to the center of town, for all that the Old Pueblo can offer including a notable culinary scene, fine local breweries, museums, galleries, shops, music and theater. There are really good restaurants nearby, too.
