Review submitted: October 18, 2012   Date of arrival: October 13, 2012

Four of us shared this house while we spent a week working here. Although we were unable to take in the sights of the city and the surrounding area we did not feel cheated because this delightful little property made it seem like a vacation. We especially loved spending time on the porch admiring the garden while we drank coffee in the morning or ate dinner in the evening. The house is cozy and the furnishings are eclectic and fun. It felt like we were reliving our lives when we were children in the 1950s and 60s. Tom, the property manager, was very helpful and friendly and the homeowners made us feel welcomed. We would definitely stay here again.

How much do we enjoy this property? Let me count the ways . . .

It’s centrally located and easily accessed from all sides of town. The gated off-street entrance and high-wall fencing provide a great sense of security and privacy. This home is a single, sprawling level; the bedrooms are all very private, each with a separate entrance. The beds in every room are superbly comfortable with very nice linens. Quietly nestled behind the main house is the separate cottage with its own full kitchen.

The large grounds of the property are wonderfully landscaped with lovely paths. There are several fun and comfy seating areas. Bonus: the owners thoughtfully provide birdseed!
If you remember to put it out in the evening, you will be treated with a morning parade of quail, dove, finches and other delightful little birds, all singing and hopping about in the cactuses, paloverde and other bushes. Coffee on the patio here is breakfast and a show!

The interior of the home is tastefully decorated with art and furnishings, all very interesting and inspiring. The kitchen is loaded with all the gadgets for cooking on the gas range, or take advantage of the full size barbecue grill outside. There is a large flat screen tv in the guest cottage and another flat screen tv and entertainment system in the main house living area.

Without a doubt, the grounds and the pool area are the most remarkable aspect of this property.
The beautiful pool and jacuzzi are safely gated with a beautiful wrought iron fence, so you can enjoy your surroundings while around the pool. The pool is very clean and just the right size for swimming laps or playing. The amazing views of sunrise and sunset are wide open – huge views! Our family voted their favorite as evening swimming and soaking under the crystal clear night skies. The stars are endless!

Although we were on business, it was truly a pleasure to stay in the home with our family. The property management is very accommodating and attentive. The few issues we had were addressed promptly. We recommend this property highly and without hesitation. It is an excellent value and a memorable experience.

Tucson is paradise and this home is the best place to enjoy it!

My family and I (8 total) really enjoyed our stay at this home. The house is well maintained, clean, comfortable and in a safe neighborhood. Everything worked fine, and we slept well in the plush beds. Close to the University of Arizona. The owners are easy to work with and made us feel very welcome. No hesitation in recommending this home to future guests.
