About this property

SUMMER DISCOUNT for Sonoran Harmony

Nestled in the heart of the Catalina Foothills, one of Tucson, AZ's most cherished and safest neighborhoods, is a delightful, two-story, two bedroom, fully furnished house available for rent. This residence, packed with charm and character, offers a rare peek into comfortable, modern living combined with the serene vibe of a peaceful nature sanctuary. Its high ceilings, light-filled interior, artistic decor, recently remodeled kitchen and cozy furnishings make it a treat for those who appreciate a blend of southwestern aesthetics and contemporary convenience.

The house features two bedrooms, each designed to be a welcoming retreat after an adventure in the city, or time spent exploring the vast network of national parks and open spaces that surround this neighborhood. The downstairs master bedroom has a comfortable, king-sized bed, dresser, bed stands, a large closet and a private, full bathroom with double sink. The second bedroom has a comfortable queen sized bed, a walk-in closet, nightstands and dresser, a computer work station, and a private bathroom with combined shower and tub.

Other key features include an in-house washer and dryer, a guest half bathroom downstairs, and a community hot tub and pool.

The high ceilings in the living room and dining area provide a beacon of light and homey elegance. The living room's inviting couch and recliner affords relaxation and the large screen, smart TV offers entertainment including You Tube TV, Apple TV, Netflix, and Amazon Prime. Other streaming services are available through your personal subscriptions. A bookshelf brimming with books ready for your perusal enhances the entertainment options downstairs. The open floor plan includes a dining area equipped with a table and six chairs.

The remodeled kitchen, with its' white quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances, is an ode to modernity. It is equipped with a toaster, electric kettle, coffee maker, blender and a full suite of cookware offering culinary exploration with ease.

Beyond the home's interior lies a very private, peaceful, backyard garden. Comfortable outdoor furniture supports enjoyment of the mountain views and spectacular sunsets. A lovely Mesquite tree shades and cools the patio on warm days, and an adjacent grove of Cottonwood trees lines an intermittent stream (known as a "wash" in these parts) providing a refreshing oasis in the desert. You can simply walk right from the house down into the wash and meander for miles!

This home is also located within walking distance from grocery stores, restaurants, galleries and shops. It is about a 20 minute drive to the University of Arizona and a little further to downtown Tucson with even more opportunities to experience Tucson's lively, creative culture. The majestic "Sabino Canyon Recreation Area" is less than a mile away offering world class hiking trails, bicycling and a shuttle into this unique and incredibly beautiful Sonoran Desert oasis. Ventana Canyon Resort and Golf Course is also less than a mile away.

This property isn't just a house; it's a gateway to life's simple pleasures, and Tucson's vibrant community spirit.. A minimum 30 days is required for booking.

Perfect Home Away From Home

We highly recommend staying at this property! This was our first experience with VRBO and it exceeded our expectations. Melaney is fabulous, the property is beautiful.... spacious, perfect layout(split floor plan) gorgeous views. It was a great home away from home....it has everything you need. Check-in and check-out process was very easy. The location was perfect....quiet but close to anything you need (shopping, restaurants, hiking, etc...). Definitely would rent again!

Copper Canyon

This property was very nice. It was quiet and access to shopping was easy. You could take a hike at Sabino State Park right down the road. Lots of wild life to see and enjoy!

Thumbs up for Oasis Desert Home

The Copper Canyon community is a nice size, clean and well kept up. There is a nice community pool and hot tub. Neighbors were all welcoming and helpful. Good location to grocery stores, restaurants and Sabino Canyon. The home was comfortable and had everything we desired. The kitchen had a good selection of pots, pans and utensils. Stocked with spices, cooking oils and other basic needs. Bedrooms and bathrooms meet our needs. Comfortable living room to gather to visit or watch TV. Nice backyard patio. It was also nice to have access to the garage for parking. Melaney was easy to reach and communicate with throughout the whole process of reserving the home to answering questions during the stay. We located the Morris K Udall Park and Recreation center which offered senior activities for a reasonable price. Sabino Canyon was less then a mile away and offered great hiking and activities. Tucson offers over 50 miles of great dedicated bike trails. There are a lot of things to see and do in Tucson. I would recommend a stay in the Oasis Desert Home.

It’s a lovely home set up to have everything for ease of living. Close to the mountains and a beautiful wash with owls and hummingbirds, you couldn’t have a nicer neighborhood!

Great getaway!

This was a perfect place for us - close to town but secluded and quiet. Very comfortable home not lacking for any amenities. The patio backs up to Ventana Wash, adding to the quiet and shade from the huge cottonwood, mesquite and palo verde trees. Community saltwater pool is a great spot to wind up the day! Several good restaurants within walking distance. Sabino Canyon and Ventana Canyon both about a mile away for some great hiking. We'd be happy to stay here again if we get the chance. Thanks, Melanie!

Comfortable, wonderful patio area, everything we needed

We had a very comfortable stay in Melaney's town home. There is a wonderful patio where you relax and enjoy terrific views and it's very peaceful and quiet. We enjoyed the community pool and the whole house was very well stocked and everything was in great working order. The community is very peaceful and very convenient to grocery stores, hiking and other shopping.

Nice house in great location for hiking, running, cycling & relaxing.

The house was a nice size with comfortable furnishings. The owner provided many of the comforts of home including spices, laundry detergent, Bounce, etc. Really great for cooking without having to spend money for everything to make the meal just right & to get your dirty clothes clean. The location near Sabino Canyon made for easy access to some great hiking, trail running & cycling or a nice walk after dinner. Internet access worked well as did Dish Network on the big flat screen TV. Would definitely stay here again!

Comfortable, Quiet and a great location for cycling in Tucson

I really enjoy my stay in Melaney's place. It was quiet and very comfortable. There is a beautiful patio over looking a wash with mountain views. The place is a great location for cycling with easy access to popular Tucson road rides ... no need to drive. The beds are comfortable. The house is well used and does show some wear and tear, hence my choice for 4 stars. But for a great location and a comfortable stay in Tucson you won't be disappointed. Mike

Desert Sanctuary

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Melaney's lovely home. Her home is clean, quiet, and very comfortable. We spent most of our time out on her patio enjoying the many birds and beautiful mountain view. Melaney has created a special place where travelers can truly relax and enjoy a peaceful stay.

Quiet patio relates to natural Ventana Wash, great location for many activities, wonderful house!

We selected this property because we thought it might be close to hiking options and several golf courses. We were right and the property was better than we expected. Coming from a vacation rental in Phoenix that had many short comings this house was a dream. The patio overlooks the Ventana wash. You feel like you have a private over look into a wild and natural area. The complex is quiet and not so large. The house is nearly at the end of the longest street in the complex giving it a feeling of privacy. We liked that very much. The location in Tucson is great. You are about a mile from several good trail heads for hiking. Ventana Golf Club is about a mile away as well several good courses if you are a golfer. Shopping is walkable for groceries. Restaurants too. The house itself is clean and very well appointed. I cook and I felt I had what I needed in the kitchen. I brought my own knives but I used the ones in the house. We ran out of gas for the grill and the owner was very quick to provide the refilled gas. She was very responsive to any concerns we had which were very few. The community pool is not heated so if you are there in the winter it will be very cold. There is a hot tub that we used a few times over our month stay. We really liked this house and would be happy to come back again.

Great place to relax!

The property was just what we were looking for. Up in the foothills, away from busy downtown, very quiet. Courtyard was amazing- a place of tranquility. Very clean and well maintained.

Outstanding Home

My wife and I have used VRBO numerous times in the past few years, this is by far the best one yet. The unit is well cared for, spotlessly clean and comfortable. Well, and I mean really well stocked kitchen with all the utensils, dishes, spices, etc one needs. The unit is very quiet, no traffic noise, and a great patio to relax on in the afternoons or to sip your morning coffee. Melaney, the owner is very accommodating and helpful.

Great property, excellent location

We have been going to Tucson in January for several years, renting a house each time. We feel that this property is the best rental we have had in Tucson. The townhouse is obviously well maintained and clean. A master bedroom on the main floor and a guest bedroom and sitting room upstairs was an ideal arrangement for us. This is the first time we have stayed that far north and east, in the Sabino Canyon area, and it turned out to be an excellent location for us. We have friends in that part of town, and there is plenty to do there, including the Ventana Canyon trail, which we hiked for the first time. The unit is also well placed within the complex, near the end, so it was very quiet and there was little traffic outside. The owner had obviously gone to great lengths to provide nearly everything we would need in terms of bathroom and cleaning supplies, and the kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots and pans, utensils, spices, etc. The patio was beautiful, a lovely place to spend quiet time outdoors, and it was enclosed so that it was safe for our dog. The rental was advertised accurately, lived up to our expectations, and was offered at a fair price. That's about all we renters can ask for.

About the host

Hosted by Melaney Seacat

Host profile image
I am semi retired and work part-time in private practice as a trauma therapist. My home in Tucson is my sanctuary 9 months out of the year. Other times I travel and visit family and friends in California. I have had a great experience renting to people on VRBO during times when I am not at home. That said, I stopped renting for the past few years so my listing is probably not showing any reviews. I love hiking, yoga, meditation and cooking!

Why they chose this property

Proximity to the best Tucson has to offer in outdoor recreation, shopping, and dining. Lovely, quiet, friendly neighborhood. Peaceful atmosphere - feels like a nature or artists retreat. The serene atmosphere, comfortable furnishings, livable outdoor patio with lots of shade; and being less than a mile from Sabino Canyon with perennial streams and world class hiking trails are some of the key attributes that makes this property a gem.

What makes this property unique

Other unique benefits include proximity to Tanque Verde Guest Ranch with horseback riding. An internationally renowned health resort, spa and golf course just up the street. We are also close to the scenic drive up to spectacular Mount Lemon.
