Drexel Heights House | Authentic Tucson Experience: Mud Adobe Casita Nestled in Canyon Among Wildlife

2 Bedroom House in Drexel Heights, Tucson

Nestled inside a boulder studded canyon this adobe casita is the perfect peaceful retreat possessing a commanding view of Tucson. With just under 4 acres to roam, the romance of the location will enchant couples. Possessing the rustic qualities of the classic Tucson adobe style, the massive 16' thick walls of the adobe casita were forged from the earth with adobe blocks made on site. The casita appears as though it's always been there having grown out of the ground merging seamlessly with the surrounding desert.

Summary: Casita was great with two bedrooms and plenty of room. Property is starting to show some wear with Leaking faucets, mineral buildup around fixtures, loose tiles, etc. However, the vibe is really cool and the beds comfortable. Place was very clean when we arrived, and I believe we left it clvery clean as well.Would come back, except we like other surrounding areas better and would probably try something different to be closer to the things we like to do.

Summary: Loction! Loction! Location! When we pulled up to this casita we knew it was the perfect place for us. As we entered the home we immediately felt peaceful and at home. The home is beautifully designed, decorated, and included quality kitchen items. The casita is located just off the beaten path on a 3 area lot. You are surrounded by nature which we spent much time walking in. Tucson's city lights twinkled in the distance at night. It was perfection and peaceful for us. It truly is a perfect locoation.

Summary: Beautiful casita behind a larger house that felt secluded and great for solitary time in Sonaroan environment. House was lovely, great kitchen and we enjoyed outdoor fires in the evening. Had a question and reached out to the owners who promptly replied and were extremely hospitable. Highly recommend this lovely desert get-away.

Summary: This was a nice quite place tucked into a beautiful surrounding. Although there is a house 30-40 feet away that was unexpected. If you are on your beautiful porch and they are on there patio it would feel a bit like a close neighbor. They did have some chairs behind the house we went back to watch the sunrise. The hosts were very accommodating as they require a 5 day minimum i think it was, and we only needed 4 so that was nice! They also provided a bag of coffee and chips and salsa, that was great! They provided good directions for getting there and getting in. One thing that may have been nice is a guide with info about the property, with things like what is the little remote thing in the basket with the panic button...? if you want to hike... If you want to have a fire... If you want to grill... Is charcoal provided? We found the garbage bin with stuff, lighter fluid, matches and charcoal for grilling but later determined that the charcoal bag was empty, easy to miss as it looked full when we looked in the bin. Over all it was a great stay clean and comfortable!Thank you!

Summary: My adult son and I have stayed in several Tucson rentals over the past few years and this is by far our favourite. The location was rural enough to enjoy peace and tranquility but within easy reach of everything Tucson has to offer. We will definitely be back depending on availability.

Summary: This property was PERFECT my fiancé and I were both obsessed with the location, the casita itself, decor, and the general neighborhood. I HIGHLY recommend following his instructions. The dirt and gravel roads to get to property weren’t TOO bad. We had an SUV and could have managed with a sedan, just drive very slowly due to bumps/rockiness. The beds were comfortable, views were great, kitchen was fully stocked, there was an awesome book and game selection, and amenities were good. This was our first time visiting AZ and 1000% will stay here again if we come back to Tucson.

Summary: Surrounded by stunning hills and desert beauty, the classic adobe casita offered us a welcoming and beautifully appointed home—a perfect place to enjoy an exciting and adventure-filled area. The spotless and beautifully appointed home provided us with everything we needed. The pictures do not do justice to the charm and warmth one feels during your stay. We have found a wonderful location, and we intend to return again and again. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a stunning and private retreat so near so many adventures!
