The outdoor area is gated, private and ample filled with lovely exotic plants and the best part? The salt water spa pool with jets!
But the back yard!!!! This is one of the biggest highlights of our home! With the outdoor dining on the covered porch, the cozy outdoor fireplace with seating, the tranquil sound of the fountain, the bistro area, the safe and gated salt water spa/pool with outdoor seating, this is a place to recharge as a single traveler, enjoy romantically as couple, have a blast as a family, or host a party or gathering with friends (the former owners told us once there was a party out there that housed 150 people!). There is a lovely cactus garden, outdoor bar, outdoor mini 'fridge, grill and twinkling outdoor lighting to enjoy your evenings!

Summary: My husband and I stayed here for a long weekend getaway. We were most excited for the private backyard and pool, and were disappointed to learn when we arrived that the “relaxing backyard fountain” was broken and the pool did not have functional jets- two things included in the listing description. The house is also a block from train tracks and it loudly passes by multiple times a day. The home had not been professionally cleaned when we arrived (the microwave had food splattered in it) and I had to ask the host for check in information the day of. I sent my concerns to the host and received radio silence. I’d look elsewhere.

Summary: We loved this place! Especially the outside, the back yard. Totally private even though you are in a neighborhood. We (me, husband, 2 adult sons) used the spa almost every evening when the air was cool. It was fantastic! We loved the outside table and other outside areas for meals and hanging out late afternoon after daytime Tucson adventures. None of us minded the trains! Yes you could hear them when they went by but I love trains so no big deal. The kitchen had exactly what was needed for a few light meals. The beds were fine and comfy, extra pillows in closets, but if you must count on the sofa bed, I would say it was typical of pull-out sofa beds that I have used before, meaning not really that comfy. The bathroom shower was wonderful with a cool stone floor, glass blocks and 3 shower heads. Melissa responded promptly with questions and was great to work with. I would return here if we come back to Tucson.

Summary: Loved the home and the outdoor living space is fantastic with the salt water hot tub/pool, back patio, and lovely landscaping. Great for a pet, the fenced in back yard provided ample space for outside time. The location is excellent for spending time in the heart of downtown and the U of A campus. Everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Hosts were fantastic and very easy to work with. Would definitely stay here again!

Summary: Very convenient to U of A. Loved the yard and pool. Small, but worked perfectly for the four of us. Neighborhood is a little older but we felt comfortable walking to campus, even at night. We will be back to visit our son and will definitely keep this place in mind!

Summary: The house has been updated. Great cozy kitchen with all needed appliances. Large fridge with great ice maker. Cozy couch/TV area. The bedrooms are nice size. Not all the outlets work in the bedrooms so challenge with night lights for reading. The mattresses are very soft; Too soft for me. The bathroom is nice. The shower is outstanding. Lovely outdoor area for sitting. Rustic and artsy. Covered parking was great for our stay in August. Also, dipping pool a huge plus. Loved the garden and cactus!
