The house was very nice and as advertised. Great location as it was 10 minutes to the campus and surrounded by great food options. I would stay here again.
The house was in a great central location for visiting family in both NW and SE Tucson. I loved the layout, spaciousness, and decor of the house and yard. We enjoyed our dog walks around the neighborhood meeting friendly people. Katie was a wonderful host.
Our group of friends truly enjoyed this house! The kitchen is well stocked with herbs and spices and cooking supplies. We cooked all our meals with ease. Perfect accommodation! We had a dog and the backyard was perfect for dogs!
House has a wonderful layout. Kitchen was very well equipped. Quiet residential neighborhood but easy access to everything we wanted. Hosts were extremely responsive to our one question about how some lights worked, coming by within minutes to show us how to do what we needed. And friendly too.
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property. So comfortable and beautifully decorated. A fabulous location for everything in Tucson. And Katie was so great to work with. We loved everything about this house and would love to stay there again soon!
We had a wonderful stay at Katie's property. The fully secure garage provided convenient parking, and unloading our gear into the kitchen and bedrooms was a breeze. The huge, well-equipped kitchen boasted large skylights that flooded the space with natural light. When we encountered a minor issue with the coffee maker, Katie promptly resolved it. The main bedroom impressed us with its king-size bed and spacious en-suite bathroom. On the opposite side of the house, we found the second bedroom with its queen-size bed very comfortable. Although we didn't use the third bedroom with two twin beds during this visit, it adds to the property's versatility. My wife summed up our experience perfectly, calling it "wonderful." We wholeheartedly recommend this delightful accommodation.
This property was excellent! Our friends came in from Colorado and we meant in Tucson to attend the University of Colorado game against U of A. Very spacious for the four of us. We gathered around the fire pit in the backyard and reminisced. The view is beautiful. The kitchen is the most stocked with pans, dishes, etc we have been in a vrbo. Very clean, close to restaurants and activities. The owner communicated very well with us and had no problems. We would definitely do this property again and highly recommend this house!!
Wonderfully comfortable home in a darling walkable neighborhood near Banner University Medical Center, Tucson. Not only is the house right by the Banner Hospital but is also close to restaurants and stores. Our hostess, Katie, was responsive and very helpful. The kitchen is great for cooking and eating too. We had a small dog with us who appreciated the walled in backyard. Can’t recommend this Vrbo highly enough!
What a wonderful home! So comfortable, excellent location and so much room for family gatherings! Couldn’t have picked a more perfect home to enjoy the UofA commencement ceremonies and celebrate our graduate!
Katie is a great host, explaining everything needed to us while we were there for two weeks. Comfortable, spacious and in a perfect neighborhood. We will be coming back to Tucson next winter and hopefully will stay there again!
On arrival we were greeted by the song of a Lucy's Warbler. Great opening to a great stay. Property is as described and more. We cooked at home a lot and kitchen made that easy. Only issue in kitchen: Too many choices of cookware and other supplies! Great set of steak knives were most appreciated. Beds comfortable. HVAC quiet, effective, and easy to use. Backyard was quiet and great place to read and relax. Katie was very responsive. Andy stopped by twice to address minor items (3 way light switch & cable setup). Quiet neighborhood with great access. Highly recommend.
The property was large and beautifully decorated. The large walled back yard was perfect for our little dog.. The kitchen was very well equipped and the location was very convenient to most tourist attractions and downtown.
The hosts, Katie and Andy were very friendly and went the extra mile to make sure our stay was enjoyable.
The house and host were lovely as could be! Check in and check out were a breeze, the home was beautiful and fit our needs perfectly. The host answered all our questions and made the stay worry free! Can’t recommend highly enough!
worked out perfectly for the 5 of us … clean, plenty of space and very close to Campbell and various grocery stores/food attractions. great place to stay!
The house was very nice, clean, spacious and decorated so it made you feel at home. The neighborhood was quiet. Everything is updated - master bath is amazing (updated after vrbo pics). Backyard area was perfect to enjoy an evening sitting outside. Fire pit would be great in cooler months. Kitchen was well stocked and all dishes and cooking items seemed new. We will definitely be back.
This is a perfect location. Large, remodeled kitchen and bedrooms. Close to many restaurants and downtown. Our two dogs loved the big back yard. Everything was clean and met expectations. Would definitely stay here again!
We loved the close proximity to “The Loop” for riding our bicycles, groceries, excellent restaurants, even Tucson’s downtown. All the beds are extremely comfortable, the neighborhood of Richland Heights east is quiet, and the backyard ended up being our favorite retreat. We all felt right at home.
We’ve rented many properties before, but this one tops the list. Large home with fenced backyard for our dog, and all the amenities we could ever want. Well stocked, great location, and great hosts. We’d love to rent again.
We had an amazing stay at this beautiful and spacious home! Our family of four had plenty of space to move around, and the home was well stocked with every convenience we needed. The kiddos enjoyed making s'mores in the backyard fire pit! Checking in and out was very simple. Also, location location location! The location of this home is conveniently centrally located in the city, but very very quite at night, which was great with two little kiddos (2yrs and 4yrs). Thank you Katie for a wonderful experience and allowing us to call your home our home for a couple of days in Tucson while visiting our newborn goddaughter. It was a wonderful trip, and we will be booking again for our next Tucson adventure, if available!
We have rented many VRBO properties during the last five years and have to say that staying at this Tucson home was like staying at your own home with all of its conveniences, only better! It is near shopping and restaurants (within walking distance) and downtown (within a short drive). It has a great split bedroom layout with a spacious, master bedroom suite, a big, fully equipped kitchen, laundry facilities, a garage to park your car, and nice backyard with beautiful views of the mountains. It is well maintained and the owner was available for any questions and restaurant suggestions. We hated to leave! We highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a home base while visiting Tucson.
We loved staying here. The kitchen is large and fully equipped. We had our dogs and the yard was big and dog friendly. The outside fire pit was fun at night. Bring your own laptop to stream Netflix as there is only extremely very very basic cable. Internet connection and speed is excellent. Very clean house. Comfortable beds. This house is centrally located to many restaurants and tourist areas. We will be back
