Nature preserve on the NE edge of town
Gorgeous, well equipped, private casita with spacious shaded patio overlooking the Rincon Mountains. Serenaded in the evening by resident Great Horned Owls, and gently awakened by quail, and doves. Hosts live on site and were generous and attentive to our needs. Would return again and again.

The casita is in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood and has a nice patio to enjoy the scenery. The casita itself is very comfortable and had all supplies we needed. Wayne and Marilyn made sure we had everything and are wonderful hosts. We enjoyed our stay there!

Another great stay at the Casita
This is our second stay at the Casita and it was as enjoyable as the first. I like to bike and it is close to mt bike trails and safe road rides around Mt Lemon and Saguaro National Park. The hosts are great. Our favorite part of the property is the outside patio where we can grill and enjoy an adult beverage.

Dessert in the Desert
The Casita is everything and more than what is stated in the description. We used to live about 3 miles from this location. It was exactly what we needed - the beautiful sunrises, evening stars, sunsets - close to family, relaxing, quiet - and - I cannot think of anything we needed that wasn't provided. We 'might' be back for a wedding in February of 204

Casita
We loved the casita, wish we had stayed longer. 7 nights were not enough. Our hosts were friendly, even brought me a second bag of bird food when I ran low. We saw a couple birds we have never seen before. The bed was comfortable, having a kitchen let us cook.

Peace & Quiet
My wife and I were visiting our daughter at University of Arizona. We decided to go early so we booked this place for a little over a week. We were very happy with the location, the accommodations and its relative closeness to U of A. The Casita is situated on the hill and has good views of the mountains to the east. I brought my mountain bike and was able to ride right from the Casita up to and around Mount Lemmon. Wayne and Marilyn are very good hosts and this will be a regular stop on our journey to Tucson.

Late April in Casita Naranja
Place was exactly as described. Everything we needed (and then some) was right there. From early morning coffee while watching the sun rise to relaxing after a day of exploring the desert, this place was wonderful. Very comfortable even when the outside temperature was in the 90's. Quiet neighborhood, but close to restaurants, grocery stores, etc. A short drive to all outdoor activities. Our hosts, Wayne and Marilyn were the best. Never intrusive, but always available. Wayne shared videos of bobcat cubs that grew up on the property. Definately a place I'd like to return to. Highly recommended.

Fantastic location for Mt. Lemmon activities
I picked Casita Naranja for my week-long climbing trip because of its location to the Catalina Highway and Mt Lemmon, and I couldn’t have been more pleased. Close enough to Mt Lemmon to get quickly to the areas at which I wanted to climb but near enough to shopping and dining for great convenience. Very quiet and the hosts were fantastic. I’ll stay again without any hesitation.

Relaxing Getaway
We had a marvelous, relaxing week at Casita Naranja, a clean, comfortable, cool (temperature) and well-appointed guesthouse that is on the edge of Tuscon but offers a welcome sense of remoteness. Our hosts, Marilyn and Wayne, were cordial and generous. They were able to accommodate our early arrival, and brought us fresh flowers and cheese and crackers during our stay. We spent much of our free time enjoying our patio seating that overlooks the beautiful desert hills, watching and listening to the birds and soaking in the scenery. The casita is in a quiet walkable neighborhood and also provides easy access to hiking an other recreation at Mt. Lemmon, Saguaro NP, and Sabino Canyon. Highly recommended!

Great location; Lots of nature
This was our second stay at Casita Naranja and we love it! We are birders and nature lovers and we get our fill each time we've stayed. Marilyn and Wayne keep the bird feeders full and they attract a great variety of feathered friends! We even had a pair of nesting Great Horned Owls in the palm trees nearby. We also found a great group to play Pickleball with just a few miles away, so it was the perfect stay and respite from the cold midwest!

Sun rise friendly
Looking over our toes each morning the sun rose warm and bright. A complete kitchen would have allowed us to make more than breakfast, but the suggested restaurant list made cooking unnecessary. The owners were as attentive to our needs as we were to the Quail, Humming and many assorted birds at the feeder. Living in a desert forest close to town added to the real feel of being in Tucson.
