Ranch Casita: views, views, views!

Our beautiful 1 bedroom/1 bath guest casita is nestled on a 3 acre ranch at the base of Mt. Lemmon in Tucson, Arizona. The casita’s open floor plan and high ceilings offers visitors a roomy and comfortable getaway just outside of Tucson city limits, but within minutes of everything!

This clean, furnished home includes a cozy living area with a large picture window of the Catalina Mountains, a beehive fireplace, and a flat screen TV with firestick. The full size kitchen includes a dining table for four, a full size fridge/freezer with icemaker, electric stove/oven, microwave, a Keurig brewing system and traditional coffee pot, blender, and all other utensils and dish ware to feel at home. The bedroom offers a comfortable queen size bed that guests love, an armoire and nightstands, and a large walk-in closet with a full-sized washer and dryer. The bathroom has a shower and large vanity with plenty of counter space, and drawers for storage. Our linens are replaced regularly to ensure cleanliness and comfort!

Outside, you can enjoy the breathtaking patio views of the Catalina and Rincon mountains as well as the beautiful sunsets of Southern Arizona. You can grill on the propane BBQ or just relax with a glass of wine from the neighboring vineyards in Sonoita and Elgin. We are minutes away from numerous outdoor activities to keep visitors entertained year-round: Pristine golf courses such as Arizona National Golf Club (1 mile) and Forty-Niners Country Club (3 miles) offer tee-times throughout the entire year. Great hiking/site seeing/and animal watching locations such as Saguaro National Monument East or Sabino Canyon are a short drive away. Various bike paths surround the Tanque Verde Valley for cycling enthusiasts, as well as Catalina Highway’s bike path that leads to Summerheaven and look out points. For those cyclists who chose to stay off the main roads, Tucson has to offer over 100 miles of 'The Loop.' Please check it out online.

Grocery stores, shopping, and restaurants are all within a five minute drive from the Casita. You can visit all locally owned Sentinel Peak Brewery, Lindy's, and Bear Canyon Pizza, see live bands play in the evenings, or sit down for dinner at any of the additional 10 neighboring restaurants within a three mile radius.

In addition, our property includes wireless internet for guests.

(FOR MORE AVAILABILITY: PLEASE SEE OUR main home on the property; Cozy Ranch Home property # 2111043)

The casita is about 150 feet from the main house on the property, but feels much further away with vegetation that separates the two.

Lovely Location

We enjoyed our stay in the Tanque Verde / Catalina Foothills area of Tucson. Our accommodations were very comfortable and clean. The views of the mountains were spectacular. Our host Stevie was very responsive and helpful in going out of her way to connect us with tv service so that we could view the Super Bowl. In a word she was SUPER!

Quiet spot in a great location

We’ve visited Tucson quite a bit and really love this northern area. Very close to anything you need and hiking right around the corner. We also did relaxing strolls down the road in the mornings and evening. House had what you’d need and even managed to cook a small thanksgiving dinner. We were low key and didn’t communicate with the host at all but knew she was there if we needed. The main house is close but you don’t notice at all if you are on the back patio relaxing. Had quite a bit of birds visiting as the host provided us with some seed. Great week long stay

Stevie was very responsive, I loved how quiet this place was, especially compared to Sedona and Scottsdale. Every morning I was on the front porch with my coffee watching the sun rise on the mountains. This was very clean and offered everything we needed. Perfect for my wife and myself.

Great for birding! Beautiful. Clean

We enjoyed 20 amazing days at this Casita in the foothills of the Catalina Mountains. We saw over 30 species of birds from the shaded patio. This property is immaculate and well equipped for cooking. The bed was so comfortable. Good Wi-Fi Great tasting water. You couldn’t find a better VRBO in the Tucson area. Hope to return to this property again.

Your Own Private Idaho

This cute little casita in the middle of the Sonoran Desert is surprisingly spacious inside. Though refreshingly minimalist, the cabinets are stocked with anything you might need, while the bathroom and all appliances are modern and streamlined. One of the most relaxing, peaceful and comfortable rentals I've ever booked. And Stevie is very responsive and accommodating. A great experience all around.

Private paradise!

My husband and I stayed briefly while in town for a family wedding. I wish we had spent more time on site, but as expected we spent a lot of time out and about with family. Everything was immaculately clean, fully stocked with essential items ….even a clean new toothbrush just in case! Everything was also labeled in the kitchen and on all the light switches ….which was so thoughtful. We sat each morning for a few hours on the front porch just watching the little lizards run around the driveway. We watched the mountain and had beautiful birds as well. Thank you Stevie for such a wonderful stay!
