About this property

Private Desert Mountain Casita on Cloud Nine! Picturesque resort setting

******* Certified WILDLIFE HABITAT *******

The Retreat on Cloud Nine just received certification from the National Wildlife Federation and Arizona Wildlife Federation as a Wildlife Habitat!

The Casita at the Resort on Cloud Nine has all of the same beautiful natural resource amenities of the nearby exclusive Miraval Resort without the resort pricing! Within Sutherland Heights, it sits high on a bluff, off a private road with easy access to unlimited hiking, biking and horseback trails. Enjoy unsurpassed dramatic mountain views during the day and at night, view spectacular Milky Way and constellation formations from your own private observation deck, floating in the pool or gathered around a camp fire.

This charming casita sleeps 2 and is comfortably furnished with a spacious living room, dining area, full kitchen, bedroom with a queen bed, newly remodeled shower and sitting area plus an oversized bathroom and walk-in closet space. Also includes a private observation deck, cozy evening seating around a fire pit and use of the pool and laundry facilities. Wi-Fi /Internet access plus TV satellite with premium channels is also provided at no additional cost.

If a peaceful, private environment with a plethora of wild life surprises is what you are looking for this is the place for you! Bunnies and quail can be seen from every window along with visits from cardinals, hawks, roadrunners, lizards and owls (a great horned owl rules the area at night). And you haven’t even left the back yard!

There is unlimited hiking in the area with access to the Coronado State forest land only a quarter of a mile away. The Fifty Year Trail, one of the area’s premier mountain biking paths is right down the road.

Another big plus, although you are in an amazing private environment, civilization is close by. You are within 5 minutes to a grocery store, 20 minutes to a shopping cinema complex with not only good Mexican cuisine but some of the best Indian, Chinese and steakhouse eateries in the Tucson / Oro Valley area. Travel another 15 minutes and you will find yourself in the upscale foothills area with La Encantada shopping and more restaurants. Or head in the other direction to experience the newly renovated Tucson downtown area providing a thriving music and night time scene complete with a new streetcar line.

Enjoy the resort atmosphere and a little slice of heaven when you stay at the Casita on Cloud Nine. We are looking forward to your visit!

Comfortable desert retreat
Lovely spot- we enjoyed our stay immensely. Plenty of room, and the roof deck was special for viewing the stars. Lots of spring flowers in bloom, and nice hiking opportunities nearby.

Comfortable get-away in beautiful setting
This is a well-decorated, peaceful home and property and the host is welcoming and accommodating. It rained three of our five days (in Tucson??), but we found the home a comfortable retreat. When it didn't rain there was hiking out the door and down the road at Catalina State Park. It was a bit of a drive to the city but it was a pleasure to return to this natural setting with fabulous views.

The perfect end to our trip
We had a great stay at Carol’s Casita. Her property is beautiful and quiet with great nooks and crannies to sit, eat, and relax. Carol added thoughtful touches like bath robes, yoga mats, and coffee. It truly felt like a home. Plus the neighborhood is quiet and has great access to walking trails as well as stores down the hill.

We were looking for something out of the ordinary condo setting and found it here. It had everything we had hoped for and more. Such a wonderful hostess, providing so many extras.
