Great place, great hosts

Staying in BJ and Brian’s casita was an ideal time away from home. It had all the extra touches and is located in a wonderful neighborhood. The hosts were great. I can’t say enough about our excellent experience.

Great Casita in a beautiful area of Tucson

This place has everything you could ever want when traveling away from home. The decor was beautiful and comfortable. If your into cooking, the kitchen will put a gleam in your eye and well furnished, all kinds of cooking utensils etc and they all appear new and unused. All in all you will not find a better place when vacationing.

I really appreciated the flexible scheduling! Much of Oro Valley is a 30 day minimum but BJ is more flexible. The guest house was well stocked with coffee, creamer and seasonings. Great location in a quiet neighborhood.

Amazing stay

We had an amazing stay at the casita. It was welcoming, clean, and our hosts were so accomodating. They had things stocked for us, and the back yard was perfect for our dog. Odin loved running around and enjoying the sunshine and was definitely not ready to return to c9ld Michigan. We hope to stay again! I can see why they are always booked- they have everything you need, are extremely nice, and the place is a gem. Centrally located to so many hikes, biking trails, and restaurants. Safe neighborhood and the casita feels like "home away from home"

Excellent Property and well worth the $$

Very comfortable and clean property and was like home. Had a walking trail right outside the neighborhood. Nice 1.5 mile walk out and back to start the morning. Area to sit outside with our pet was a plus. Wish all properties were this nice. Lot of value for the price. Was a ways north of Tucson but still easy to get places of interest. Would recommend to others!!

Just right

This location worked well for us. The unit was very well supplied. One suggestion...every reachable cupboard was loaded with all the dishes/glasses/cooking supplies anyone would need. That was great, accept there was no room to store food. Maybe designate a couple cupboards as pantry.

Wonderful Casita- Above and beyond expectations!

This was the first time we rented a house - in a city we’d never been to, and for a month. It was with some trepidation we arrived at the Casita. It was like walking into a posh hotel suite. We felt immediately at home. It was super clean and no detail was overlooked by the hosts. The bed and living room furniture were extremely comfortable and the decor was very inviting. BJ and Brian were always responsive immediately to any questions we had. The neighborhood is quiet and convenient to all necessities. We were so happy with it, we’ve already booked again for next March. Thank you BJ and Brian for a lovely stay! Linda and Rob Benton, March 2022

Wonderful Find In Oro Valley

I had been in AZ for 2 months. I had to find new lodging. I went through the VRBO listing and came across this wonderful location! The neighborhood was quite and neat and clean. The apartment was so clean and decorated tastefully. The appliances, plates, drinking glasses etc. in excellent condition. The backyard area is very nice and quite. My allergies bothered me during the summer months. When I did have some relief and sat in the back it was so relaxing. BJ and Brian provided all in the apartment. They were wonderful hosts. BJ responded in a timely fashion and took care of any requests I asked for. I felt safe and comfortable during my stay there. I would strongly suggest that you consider this location.

Mountain View was missing

Well managed property. Very well appointed - host provided everything we could have wanted. The provided garage was appreciated (a bit of a tight fit but workable). We found the house claustrophobic. The only Mountain View available was through 8 foot high windows and we could see the peaks only. Otherwise the view was of the stucco of the main house or an 8 foot high wall. Sitting outside on the fenced in patio/side yard provided almost no sun, except for minimal times of day, and NO views. I hate being negative about this as I don’t see any solution - but it made me feel imprisoned. The neighborhood was mostly quiet with the exception of barking dogs. To my horror, the worst offenders were the hosts 3 dogs. It wasn’t constant or long lasting but sometimes it was early morning, or later in the day when we had our windows open. We love dogs, but barking dogs are not enjoyable to be around. Very nice hosts, very nicely kept - but not scenic or conducive to outdoor living.

Everything You Need

The Casita is all that is advertised. Couldn't be happier with it - very nice inside (didn't use outside as we were away all of the days mountain biking). BJ and Brian are wonderful and I actually bought a house with BJ as my Realtor. Can't be any better review that this.

A Perfect Stay

This property was perfect for our two-week stay in Oro Valley. It's well located in a very nice neighborhood, convenient to Tucson and the surroundings. The casita is clean, open, and comfortable. It is beautifully decorated, and is full of amenities. The kitchen is well equipped, nice extras. There are many little touches throughout that made it feel like home. Having the garage was a real plus for us. BJ and Brian are great hosts, very responsive and helpful when we had questions. This casita has our highest recommendations, and we would certainly want to stay there again.

Restful stay in wonderful setting

This property was absolutely immaculate. I was initially concerned about being connected to the main house, but it was not an issue whatsoever. BJ and Brian were incredible hosts and we didn't here a peep from next door unless we sent a text with a question and it was answered almost immediately. The neighborhood is super quiet, upscale and has great places to walk with beautiful mountains all around . Very convenient to state parks that had numerous options for great hikes. Close to shopping, restaurants. We brought our dog with us and he loved it too! Cleanest VRBO with everything you could possibly need. Felt much more like a home away from home than a VRBO. Will definitely stay here again!
