About this property

Historic Adobe Casita - Private Fully Fenced Yard

Authentic 1940s adobe refreshed for modern comfort: all‑new tile floors, a sleek new kitchen, updated bath, dining nook, and two restful bedrooms with closets.

Vintage charm, fresh finishes, and plenty of outdoor space all in one inviting home.

Lovely Stay at the Adobe House

There was an ease with the whole process: booking, access, communication. The house was the perfect size, close to whatever you would need/want in the Tucson area. And it has a great enclosed back yard! Highly recommended!

Bright, welcoming little house in a charming neighborhood

The natural light and bright southwest colors make this house feel spacious. The walled backyard has both sun and shade at all times of the day; our mini-schnauzers had a wonderful vacation too. We enjoyed the neighbors we chatted with when we walked the dogs. The location, east of downtown and the university,,meant that everything we wanted was quite close. Be sure to go to Barrio Bread.

About the host

Hosted by Taylor Bard

Host profile image
Taylor - I'm originally from Oxford Pennsylvania though Arizona has been my home since 1997 and I absolutely love it! Cooking, gardening and reading are just a few of my favorite things to do in my spare time. I love to travel and am very friendly and personable and enjoy meeting new people from all over the United States and beyond. With that said, hosting is something I enjoy very much :)

Motto: " Live for today, Plan for tomorrow, and Learn from Yesterday"


Yuko - Born and raised in Japan until Junior High, went to High school and college in Tucson Az. Just started my apt in Fukuoka as rental , for I plan on returning to Arizona here in the near future, though Fukuoka will always be "home". Keeping my place there keeps me connected for when I return, Which will be 2-3 times annually. Very much a people person, and this Vacation Rental has been rather fun..:)

Together - We make a great team and We look forward to meeting more people via VRBO
