Charming Southwest-Style Home with Pool, Birds & Wildlife plus Mountain Views

Spacious 1455 sq. ft. southwest-style guesthouse located on 3+ acres. Nestled amongst majestic saguaro and other desert plants and cacti, which affords plenty of privacy from the owners property next door.
Situated close to the Tucson Mountains and just minutes from I-10 freeway for easy day trips to Phoenix and Norgales, Mexico, plus 20 minutes to downtown Tucson. Private yet close to shopping (5 mins drive), golfing, and bird watching.
Approximately 3 miles from Saguaro National Park West for hiking, scenic drives, picnic areas and camping.

Amazing Desert Vistas and Bird Watching
The pics online don't do justice to the location and surroundings of this amazing place. Close to Saguaro National Park, we enjoyed the easy access and afterward spent a lot of time on the outside patio watching wild birds feeding and soaking in the peace and tranquility.

Graduation Trip
We traveled to Tucson for a UA graduation. The property was ideal. Close to I-10 for access and out away for peaceful desert nights. Communication was prompt and requests for a family get together were accommodated. We were there for 12 nights, felt like home after one. Couldn’t be happier with our stay.

Spring Birding and Hiking Trip
Lovely area in the spring if you love the desert and birding! Cooked all our meals and enjoyed the porch in morning and pool in heat of the day. Visited the National Park, Desert Museum and Sabino Canyon! We hope to return a third time! Towels, linens and bedding all very nice.

Perfect Tucson Base for Hiking
This is a nice home in a beautiful setting, close to Saguaro National Park. Kitchen was well-stocked, and there were even hiking poles in the closet for guest use. Carella was a great host and communication was excellent. Would definitely recommend.

Great place to stay
We enjoyed our visit to Tuscon. We loved bird watching in the backyard every morning. Various birds, quail and even hummingbirds. The house is so close to Saguaro national park, which was an excellent place to go hike for the day. The pictures don’t do this place justice, it really is beautiful, the views every morning were stunning!

Amazing stay in the desert
Beautiful 3 bdm 2 bath home in the desert. The kitchen has everything you need from spices to equipment. This is beautiful property on acreage but minutes to groceries and a Costco. The property owner is located in the house next door and available if needed, but otherwise we didn’t see her at all.

Hummingbirds, quails and doves! oh my!
We truly enjoyed our stay. The hostess was lovely as well as the property. We loved relaxing on the patio and watching the different types of birds. It was located in a quiet area surrounded by beautiful cacti and other AZ plants. Yet it wasn’t far from shopping and where we needed to go to watch a synchronized swim competition, Thank you for a lovely stay.

This large spacious home is secluded and peaceful, in addition to being clean and well appointed. It’s very close to many hikes and has a lovely outdoor space. Four adults were very comfortable. Instructions and communication were clear. If I could rate it a 6, I would.

Well maintained guest house
We enjoyed our stay in this guest house. It had everything we needed and more! It is in a great location and it was nice to be able to park our rental car in the garage. We enjoyed sitting on the back patio watching the wildlife. There were lots of birds and rabbits, and we even saw a javelina!
