Beautiful peaceful place.
Incredibly nice place to stay. Had my elderly parents with me that can’t get around like they use to. This place was perfect for them. No big stairs and the amenities were perfect for them. Especially that shower. We had a huge amount of family in for a wedding and the would come and visit my dad/mom and everyone was so impressed by the property. Everything was thought of! Thank you so very much!

A Real Gem!
Comfortable and clean. Quiet area, easy to walk or bike. Fun to see different desert wildlife during our stay. Even better than the pics. Will stay again when in the Tucson area.

Lovely property. Good for families with kids.
Everything went smoothly. The rental is pretty spacious.
The bathroom is quite spacious, so even though there is only one bathroom there is plenty of room for someone to be getting ready at the sink while someone else is showering (assuming you are with spouse or someone you would share a bathroom space with like that)
The outdoor space was nice, although we did not spend a lot of time in it. We were either visiting family at their place or recovering from the flu we got for Christmas.
Kitchen is pretty well stocked with basic appliances/dishes/pots/pans etc.
The bed in the master bedroom and the day bed mattresses were comfortable. The bunk bed mattresses were not as comfortable but should be just fine for smaller kids. Don't plan on putting adult sized people on them.
We expect to stay again.
