Revisiting Tucson

Our family was returning to Tucson after 15 years. We were thrilled that we chose this property. The location was perfect-with outstanding views of the Catalina mountains, the gorgeous sunsets and view of the Tucson lights, close to Sabino Canyon for hiking, and easy access to stores and restaurants. The house has many amenities that made it great for a wide age range of our family. The pool table, spa, pool, theater seats with Tv and even the puzzles provided much for our crew to do when we were not out seeing the sights. The owner communicated with me promptly each time I had a question I’d definitely stay here again!

Excellent Experience

The property was simply perfect for our family gathering. We stayed for five days to celebrate our daughter’s graduation from the University of Arizona. The house provided ample space, great amenities, and a perfect location to take in Tucson and all it has to offer. The hosts were responsive and welcoming and the trip could not have been better. Thank you for the great space…we’ll be back in a few years when our son graduates from UofA!

Winter in Tucson!

This is a lovely property. The large open spaces were perfect for our group of seven. The view is spectacular both from the front patio as well as the back deck. We used the gas grill on the patio and thoroughly enjoyed the covered deck. To our delight, the kitchen was fully equipped for our group of discerning cooks. We had occasion to contact the owner a couple of times to which he responded promptly, graciously and effectively. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

The Perfect Place for Family and Dogs

Our group was in town for U of A graduation and included age ranges from 22-90 plus 2 dogs. This home had everything to make everyone comfortable. It was clean, very well stocked (even had a collapsible pen for the dogs), had comfortable beds and plenty of space indoors and out. We really enjoyed sitting outside on the covered patio and around the pool - beautiful views. Didn't get to use the hot tub or pool, but both were clean. It's not easy finding nice homes that accommodate dogs, but this is a great one. It is managed by the owners who provided detailed information and were very easy to communicate with. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend.

Beautiful and comfortable home

This is a lovely high end home which has been tastefully renovated in a beautiful neighborhood. The hosts have put a lot of thought into what their guests will need which is above and beyond many VRBOs I've stayed in. For example, there is a collection of spices and pantry items in the kitchen and shampoo/conditioner in the showers. The space was perfect to accommodate our large and varied family group and allowed privacy between parties. The only minor issue I had was that I'm pretty sure the listing showed 3 king beds and 1 queen when I booked it but there are 2 king beds and 2 queen beds. Not a big deal at all. I highly recommend this property.

Nice house

Great neighborhood layout of home is excellent. Weakness is the AC needs rebalancing the master bedroom is too warm and if the AC is turned up the bedroom across is too cold. Pool needs a child proof lock system my six year old Walked right up and opened the pool Gate also that gate doe not close automatically. The device to do that is only $79 on Amazon owners should buy and install.

Gorgeous, Comfortable Property

Located in a quiet Catalina Foothills neighborhood, this property provides outstanding views from its large picture windows. We enjoyed the lights of Tucson while playing pool, and mountain views from the dining table. Not only is the property updated and beautiful, it's really homey and comfortable, from the outside sitting areas, to the inside furniture, to the bed. If you are a birder, you'll love this property! The neighbors have feeders, so we were able to watch many species of desert birds from the patio, where we spent the majority of our time. The property is dog friendly, but not fenced, so plan on keeping your dog restrained when outside (the aforementioned birds are quite a doggy distraction!). Although not listed as an amenity, there is a large new gas grill. Check-in and out is uncomplicated. Unlike many properties, the hosts do not have a long list of "thou shall nots", which is refreshing. At this price point, we appreciate being trusted to take care of things. The hosts were available when needed, but not intrusive. We would definitely rent this property again!

Fabulous Hom

My husband and I spent a wonderful week in Tucson for vacation and really enjoyed this lovely and well-appointed home. With the pool and patios, it was like having our own private resort! It was just the two of us this trip, and we loved having all the extra space, but we can see how the home would also be perfect for a larger group or family. The views are stunning, with the Catalina mountains on one side and city views on the other. We loved sitting outside in the evening and seeing all the city lights come on amidst the brilliant pink sunsets. The bedroom was very comfortable for sleeping, as it’s a quiet and serene setting, yet near all the shopping and restaurants you could ever need. The desert landscaping is very pretty all around the home, and we saw lots of quail, hummingbirds, and even a fox in the distance one evening. This home is a true gem.

Wonderful home and property!

From the check-in process to departure, everything was seamless. The home was perfect for our family gathering. We came to town for my son's graduation from the University of Arizona. The open floor plan was perfect for our family dinners. The owner pre-heated the pool for us. The home was also nice and air-conditioned when we walked in. The back yard was perfect for eating breakfast outside and the front porch was perfect for watching the sunsets. The home is pre-stocked with bathroom tissue, bathroom soap, shower soap and paper towels, which saved us the headache of having to buy all these necessities for such a short stay. Communicating with the owner was easy - she was very responsive. They allowed us to check out an hour after our original check out time, since our flight was in the afternoon. The mattresses on the beds were super comfortable – how refreshing to rent a home with a bed that you can actually sleep on and not wake up with a sore back. We rent homes frequently and this is certainly among the top properties that we have rented. I highly recommend this home!

We are Tucson locals and had our family fly in from out of town for a staycation at this VRBO home. We all had an absolutely wonderful time! Great layout and fabulous pool.

Great Home for Families

We had a fantastic stay at Michale and Sarah’s home in the foothills. The house was awesome, totally stocked with everything you would need in a vacation home (pool towels, shampoo, quality bedding, etc). We went with our 4 small kids and in-laws and the split plan layout was perfect so Grandma and Grandpa could have their privacy. We picked this house because of the gated pool for the little ones which was perfect for piece of mind. The owners also purchased a really nice pack and play for the baby which was key to our trip. This house would also be perfect for traveling without kids. The views of the mountains and city are breathtaking and the area is so quiet and peaceful. The beds were very comfortable and there were so many different areas of the home to relax and have a glass of wine and just enjoy nature. Craycroft is the best street to get into town and this home is right around the corner from Sunrise /Cray so we were able yo get to midtown in 10-15 min and the airport in 30. You cant beat the area! We will definitely be back, we had a great time and the house was ideal for our family apring break.

In Town for a Family Wedding

We have family in Tucson, so this was our 5th or 6th vrbo rental we have used over the years, and by far, the BEST. This is a super clean, well organized and appointed home. Our group of 7 adults, 2 kids had plenty of space for sleeping, relaxing, eating, and playing. Keyless entry made it easy for all to come and go (and not drive home with the keys- happened once at another place). Nice touches like quality toilet paper, plenty of tissues and paper towel, light switches labeled. The owners are the property managers and obviously take good care of their own home. Communication with them was comfortable and easy. When the hot tub needed maintenance, someone was there in under 30" and quickly resolved the issue. The location is in our favorite area of Tucson. The home has incredible views from every seating area, inside and out. Other homes are nearby, but it took us days to finally notice them - seriously! No road noise, just Gambel's Quail calling "qua-el" and an owl hooting. We are already looking forward to when we might be able to go back. Thank you so much, Mike and Sarah, for allowing our family of four generations to fully enjoy ourselves during our daughter's wedding.
