traveler reviews for this tucson cottage rental

Perfect place to stay!

Mary (Denver)
Review submitted: January 7, 2012   Date of arrival: December 24, 2011

We recently took a trip to Tucson over the Christmas and New Year's Eve holidays, and this was the perfect place to stay. The property is very clean and well-maintained. There is a large patio on the main level and a balcony upstairs, both with beautiful views of the desert. I particularly enjoyed watching the beautiful sunset from the upstairs balcony.

The owners are very friendly and responsive and even left us a nice bottle of champagne to help us bring in the New Year. This property is very close to many Tucson attractions, including restaurants, mountain biking trails, hiking trails, and museums, yet is in a quiet area that feels very private. I highly recommend this property and plan to stay here again when I visit Tucson.

Private, beautiful, perfect

I can't emphasize enough what a great place this is. It's only a few minutes away from the main intersections of Campbell/River and Campbell/Skyline (La Encantada) so restaurants and shopping are very convenient. Yet, when you are staying there it is incredibly quiet and private. I saw all kinds of desert wildlife from my windows, and the surrounding few acres are a nearly undeveloped Sonoran desert landscape.
The landlords are wonderful and very responsive to questions that came up. The furnishings are nice, and although the kitchen is compact, I was able to make many great meals there. There is a chiminea for cold winter nights, but also a powerful heating system and good air conditioning. For its size, a fair amount of space for storage. The bathroom is modern, and there's a balcony upstairs that's a perfect place to watch the sunset.
There aren't too many rentals that I actually *miss* after I've left, but this is one of them! I'd recommend it, particularly for 1-2 people, with no hesitation.
