It's a perfect base for a Tucson vacation.

What a great place to stay! The atmosphere of the amazing yard along with all the amenities made it feel I was at home not on vacation. The attention to detail paid by owner made our stay very relaxing and stress-free, we had everything we could possibly need to enjoy a comfortable stay in Tuscan. We were also close to stores and restaurants as well as downtown which made it convenient. We will definitely be back.

Loved the home, location, backyard. Love to come back and stay again.

The home was exactly as advertised, The owners of the property are so easy to communicate with, and are clearly very nice people who care a lot about their property. We would definitely love to stay in this home again when we travel back to the area. It’s easy to get around to anywhere you wish to go within Tucson and surrounding areas from this location.

Backyard Bliss

Perfect home base to explore Tucson. Located in the foothills near shopping, restaurants, but also plenty of nature. Our favorite part of the stay was starting and ending our day on the back patio. Relaxing, comfortable space to take in the scenery and the local wildlife.

Wonderful home in the Catalina Foothills

Wonderful home in the Catalina Foothills - convenient to almost everything - shopping, dining, outdoor activities… The backyard is full of wildlife - birds, rabbits, lizards, bobcats and javelinas. The home is clean, the owners are friendly with easy communication. I would highly recommend this home.

Foothills Gem

We absolutely loved staying at this home! It was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The back yard and patio were perfect for relaxing and soaking in some sun, nature and peace and quiet. We enjoyed the many species of birds, squirrels and rabbits on the property as well as the bobcats that walked through the property on their daily treks. We would definitely love to come back!

What a beautiful place!

I felt so close to the desert and to the mountains in the back yard. I liked to sit on the farther patio and watch sunrise, and listen to bird sounds. The feeders brought in so many birds, it was great to see them all. The house was well organized. The owners thought of everything, including some holiday touches since we were there over Christmas. The owners are responsive and accessible. We were very pleased overall and highly recommend this place.

Beautiful Foothills home!

Beautiful home, very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. Close to everything, nice views, landscaping, covered porches front and back and use of garage very helpful. Only downside is the neighbor across the street, keeps their outside lights on all night, which shine directly into the front bedrooms. Not an issue if windows and drapes are closed, but we were there in April and at night we preferred to open the windows for fresh air.

An oasis in the foothills

From the moment we arrived, the location proved to be incredibly convenient. Whether you're in the mood for a great meal, shopping, or exploring nature, everything is just a short drive away. There are numerous hiking trails nearby, making it an ideal spot for anyone looking to enjoy the great outdoors. The real gem, though, is the backyard. It's nothing short of an oasis. The landscaping is stunning,, and thoughtfully placed seating areas that invite you to unwind and enjoy the serene surroundings. The views of the mountains are absolutely breathtaking, offering the perfect backdrop for a morning coffee or evening relaxation. It’s easy to spend hours simply sitting by the windows, letting the natural beauty wash over you. Inside the home, the attention to detail is remarkable. The woodwork art, throughout the house is truly a highlight.The house is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, making it easy to settle in and feel right at home. One of the most memorable parts of our stay was the wildlife we were fortunate enough to see in the back and front yards. From rabbits and javelinas to a coyote and a wide variety of beautiful birds, the backyard felt like a living nature documentary. It was an incredible experience to just sit back and enjoy!
