Central Tucson

The guest house was conveniently located and very private. Would have given 5 stars, and this is picky, but the pillows were really uncomfortable. Otherwise it was a great stay.

Wonderful guest house centrally located

Liz is a great host who responded to all of our needs. The guest casita was charming and in a great location. We were able to go downtown and to the Catalina Mountains within minutes. The guest house was very spacious and had all of the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. We will definitely return for a visit.

About the host

Hosted by Liz Fletcher and Aria Fletcher-Ratcliff

Host profile image
Came to Tucson from Ashland, Or. 35 years ago and can't leave! I've lived along the Pacific NW coast, Saskatchewan, Arizona White Mountains, Costa Rica, and Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Musician and massage therapist by trade. Our home had lots of extra space from now converted to hosting, we've now had many hundreds of stays over 5 years.
My goal as a host is to provide a comfortable, very clean and private stay in Tucson! Tucson is a fantastic town with an endless variety of things to see and do.

Why they chose this property

My favorite area of town, we are located blocks from the Rillito Wash, near the UA, and a short drive to most anything. In 2015 we began re-purposing unused space for hosting
. Along the way the yard was overhauled for water harvesting and solar panels..
Hosting has been an unexpected adventure! This neighborhood was a ranch, incorporated in 1938 after which the city grew around it. The neighborhood has retained generous half acre lots and low density with foresight. A wildlife corridor arroyo through the neighborhood brings javelina, bobcats, owls, coyotes, and the like. Our wide quiet streets are enjoyed by neighborhood dog walkers and cyclists.

What makes this property unique

Central yet peaceful and private. Old neighborhood with great neighbors!
Walking distance to a few restaurants and groceries. Excellent walking, jogging, and biking access from the house to the 100 mile non-motorized "Loop", or bike path which surrounds the city.
The UA, Tucson Racquet Club, JCC, Sat. Farmer's Market and Sun. artisan market, and Trader Joe's are all minutes away.
