Great location in Tucson
This was our 2nd year at Lil and Henry’s home. They make staying there easy. We used the free streetcar which was 1 mile away to go to the St Patrick’s Parade, Festival of Books, 4th Ave Street Fair, Arizona Transportation Museum and more.

Close to U of A
We had a wonderful weekend visiting our daughter, who attends the U of A. The house is about 5 minutes from campus. It has very clean, with newer furnishings. We liked that it had cable TV, not just apps, so we could watch sports, etc.. We would definitely stay here again.

Christmas in Tucson
We loved the house. The kitchen was well-supplied, allowing for a wonderful Christmas dinner. The neighborhood was quiet and beautifully decorated for the holidays with many luminaria out on Christmas Eve. The location was centrally located for many attractions and within walking distance of great dining. The male Vermillion Flycatcher that greeted us most mornings in the backyard was an unexpected delight.

Parents Weekend
Property was clean and the kitchen had almost everything we needed. There is some drainage issues with the one tub/shower that would make it challenging for more than one couple to share that bathroom. Neighborhood was great. House is super cute and we enjoyed hanging out in the backyard.

Wonderful stay for our family of 5!
This home is in a great area and had everything we needed to be very comfortable during our 4 night stay. We made our breakfast each morning, packed lunches for the day and made our dinners in the evening! Although we had a busy weekend, it felt like we were at home! Highly recommend when traveling to Tucson!

Wonderful house for visit to Tucson
Great midcentury house in historic Sam Hughes neighborhood. Walk to Flora’s Market Run. Nice private walled yard with cute lizards and spectacular bird watching. Kitchen was very well stocked. Bathrooms were great - plenty of hot water, spotless. Owners were very prompt and helpful in all communications.

Loved this cute, centrally-located gem in the Sam Hughes section of Tucson.
Really nicely furnished and the kitchen was well-equipped with everything you’d need for cooking your own meals. Weather was perfect in March and the sitting areas in the front and back yards were great. Thanks for the welcoming snacks and drinks. It’s the little touches that make it feel like home from the start.

Our fun month in Tucson
My husband and I loved the Sam Hughes neighborhood. We walked to Flora Market Run and Bob Dobb’s for lunch. So many places that we wanted to visit were only 1 - 2 miles away. Great location. The house felt like home on the first day. Lil and Henry were gracious hosts, bringing over a couple of things we needed and helping us out with getting our absentee ballots for an important election back home. We had 3 groups of family visit us during the month and we hosted Easter dinner for seven. Half way through our month we booked this house for a month next year. We can’t wait!

A perfect escape in Tucson
We had such a plesant visit in Tucson for the past 4 weeks while staying in Lilian & Henry's lovely home. All the qualities needed for a relaxing stay were included in the well furnished home. As a person who likes to cook, I found the kitchen well equipped and almost every need anticipated. The location was ideal as well with excellent restaurants within walking distance and a great fresh market at Flora's. Himmel Park with its many attractions was only a short block away. Plan to be there around noon on Sunday to listen to music by what appears to be a pick-up jam session with local musicians. How special! This was the best rental experience that we have had in Tucson! Thank you Lilian and Henry!

Great location, adorable and comfortable house
My husband, teen daughter, and I stayed in this very attractive rental for a week. We enjoyed walking around the quirky and architecturally interesting Sam Hughes neighborhood including the nearby park and appreciated the house’s central location and easy access to the university, shops & restaurants, and hiking trails (20 -30 min in any direction). The house itself is well and thoroughly furnished and equipped, including such helpful amenities as laundry detergent, cooking equipment, good lighting, etc. and we had everything we needed for a great week. Thank you so much to the helpful and welcoming hosts!
