About this property

Tucson 3 bedrm 2 ba. home, quiet cul de sac, magnificent mountain views.

Charming 3 bedroom 2 bath 1600 sq. ft. home located on natural desert home site in central foothills close to all services but very private setting. Queen bed in master, single bed in bedroom 2, hide a bed couch in bedroom/den 3 plus hide a bed in living room. Separate formal and also informal dining. Covered patio looks onto natural desert rear yard that is very private due to backing to a desert wash with heavy vegetation. Two car garage. Stunning mountain views of the 9,000 ft Catalina's. Close by access to national forest hiking trails which our guests love.
We have just added this property to the list of VRBO available rentals. A minimum rental period has been specified in order to respect the upper end highly desirable location where the home is located. The rental rate is conservative compared competitive rates in order to attract longer term occupants. Hopefully we have provided an opportunity for winter visitor guests that is unmatched in terms of location, convenience, comfort and natural beauty. Tucson is much more comfortable during the summer than generally appreciated so we have adjusted the rate and will now offer the home during the summer months to the delight to those who choose to visit during this rare and enjoyable period of the year. If you reserve the home we will make every effort to make your visit as enjoyable as possible.

Nice, large home in a safe neighborhood

The home is large and very clean! Great place for a family to stay! The area is beautiful, safe and secluded due to the surrounding vegetation which we loved! Weather was great the whole time we were there.

Great house in a beautiful location

My husband and I stayed for a week in this house. The backyard was unique and beautiful. There was a lot of outdoor furniture so we could sit out and enjoy the birds and wildlife we saw. The inside of the house had everything we needed - a well stocked kitchen, W/D, comfortable bed, and plenty of room. Everything was clean and they even left paper towels and toilet paper. It was not a fancy house but it was perfect for our vacation and we would return without hesitation.

Great Rental

Beautiful place to stay. Very close to the mountains. We hiked the Finger Rock trail up the Santa Rita Mountains which is close to the rental and saw a group of Javelinas! Will definitely rent this again when we are visiting my parents.

Great location for a quiet visit to Tucson

Nice location in the Catalina Foothills. The home has a large living room, dining room, and eat-in kitchen area. It had everything we needed, including a wonderful AC system. The only recommendation I'd make is to update the bath towels. They are very old and need replacing. Otherwise, our family of 3 had a lovely visit and would consider staying here again.

Perfect spot for relaxing

I wasn't expecting to travel alone so was nervous about picking a good area. This place was perfect. Safe, quiet, lots of close things to see and do. Back yard is fabulous. I saw more birds and small critters here than I did in the state park. SUPER Clean. Chris replied quickly with tips around the area. Would love to stay again when I have some company.

Wonderfully quiet, foothills retreate

Very happy with this stay, though there were some quirks to the property. Had a couple initial hiccups with the internet service, but the owner was very responsive and dealt with the problem quickly. House is comfortable, spacious and very homey to anyone who grew up in the 70/80's like me. Backyard/patio area was my favorite -- great place for morning coffee with lots of birds & the sunrise.

Perfect choice for our month in Tucson

If you don't mind being off the beaten path, this property in a quiet, residential neighborhood in the Catalina Foothills is a great choice. It's an older home, but all the "important" stuff works as advertised - kitchen appliances, heating, plumbing, etc. the backyard is an absolute desert oasis, complete with an array of birds and other wildlife. The owner was great to work with. I highly recommend this property.

Wonderful Backyard

Wonderful house with a great backyard. Great wildlife and bird watching. Very nice place to relax and enjoy the desert scenery. Wifi was great. We rented the house for a week and worked remotely and also did some hiking. There is a great trail just up the street that has very scenic views. We would definitely stay here again.

Bird Watchers Paradise

We just returned from a wonderful stay at this unique property. The backyard is a jungle of desert plants that the birds just love! By jungle, I mean that in the very best sense of the word! We were mesmerized by the constant bird action that took place from sun up till sunset. We were particularly thrilled to see the beautiful Arizona Cardinals. A couple of javalinas even wandered by one morning for another thrilling experience. This property is close to many hiking areas, shopping and points of interest. This home has everything you need for a great stay in the Catalina Foothills.

Great Location, Well maintained house

We had a very nice stay at this house. The location is great -- close Sabino Canyon and other fabulous hiking spots. The house had everything we needed in it, was spotlessly clean, and very quiet. Communication was great. We particularly appreciated the patio, looking over the desert landscape, tons of wildlife to see and listen to.
