2 Bedroom House in Tortolita, Tucson

Please note that due to local regulations the property is generally only available for 30 days or more. Please contact me for shorter stays.
This 10 acre property is located in the uplands of the Sonoran Desert. It is surrounded with majestic saguaros, ironwood trees and cactus abound. The property is in a pocket of natural desert yet just 5 minutes to I10 (Twin Peaks interchange). The guesthouse sits on its own private area and can barely see the main house. You may watch Harris and Redtail Hawks flying overhead, catch a glimpse of a great western owl or a bobcat and see the roadrunner and coyotes scampering the grounds. The hummingbirds winter here as well and if you supply the nectar in the feeders they will grace your presence. The roads are dirt however we are only approx. 1/4 mile to the nearest paved road. The area has horse ranches and you are likely to see the equestrians and cowboys strolling the roads along with a mule drawn cart on occasion. It is excellent for hiking and mountain biking. There are numerous golf courses nearby from the Ritz Carlton at Dove Mtn (along with the Gallery and Heritage Highlands) - to the local county course at Arthur Pack.
The guesthouse has a master bedroom with a king bed as well as a television. The second bedroom has a twin(w/ pop up trundle). All luxury linens are included. The greatroom/kitchen offers comfort to watch a smart 55 inch television. You can stream many channels. We offer fast WiFi - 200mbps download and 40 mbps upload speeds There is a fireplace in the greatroom. The living room and dining room are in the Arizona Room - a room that is glass on all three sides. This room is wonderful for reading and for watching the hummingbirds and desert wildlife coming and going. The main area of the guest house has bamboo flooring and the Arizona room is all Mexican Saltillo tile. Outside you will find 2 large covered porches, a flagstone patio and lighted ramada along with a BBQ grill. This house also has an oversized carport with a large laundry and outdoor storage room attached.
We are minutes to the U of A, downtown (Trolley) and less than 1.5 hrs to Sky Harbor airport in Phoenix. The Tucson airport is approx. 20 minutes away. Come relax and enjoy the dry warmth of the desert. Summers offer spectacular lightning events and wonderful sunsets. The heat is dry and the temps can drop 25 degrees in 15 minutes after a shower - which rarely lasts over 20 minutes.
Of course our winters are the 'high' season and what better place to escape the cold, damp weather. Late January - February will bring us the Tucson Gem Show (world’s largest) . We have several golf tournaments in February as well as the Tucson Rodeo Parade- the world's largest non motorized parade before the rodeo. El Tour de Tucson - Bicycle race in November is a world class event.
My husband and I live on the property and have been in Tucson for almost 40 years enjoying the southwest deserts. We are avid hikers and when not in Tucson you will find us escaping to the cool rivers of the western states or perhaps to the beaches of Mexico. We enjoy cooking, sharing recipes, tales of travels over a glass of wine. We can be quietly friendly or here to help you enjoy and plan your stay in the Tucson Desert.
Tucson is a great place to enjoy the out of doors and the multicultural heritage of the area.

Summary: What a beautiful, tranquil, and peaceful location! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was cozy, comfortable and inviting. The views were breath taking from the front and back porches. Our hosts were very friendly and made us feel right at home.

Summary: My wife and I stayed at Totolita for the month of January this year and had a wonderful time. It is a guesthouse that was very well appointed and had plenty of space for us as well as a great outdoor space. The privacy was fantastic. We were in the middle of a saguaro desert with few, hardly visible, neighbors, plus we saw plenty of wildlife. Our hosts were great to us and responded very quickly to any questions we had. We would stay there again in a minute.

Summary: The Casita was fabulously outfitted and the hosts are very gracious, helpful and friendly! We loved our stay in this very "remote" feeling of northern Tuscon with 25 minute access to downtown and 15-20 minute access to foothill hiking and biking on paved trails. The place is definately for people who want to get away from the hustle and bustle of a busy city yet close to everything! We will definitely be staying there again and again!

Summary: This guesthouse was a wonderful place to stay while exploring Tucson and taking a break from the weather in Minnesota. It has a newly remodeled kitchen and comes fully equipped. The house was very clean and well maintained. The owners could not have been better hosts. They care about their guests and the property. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Summary: My stay at this lovely guest house was my best experience ever with a VRBO property - and with the owners. The house is lovely - lots of glass, light, comfortable space - felt totally at home. The house is immaculate and well equipped, with a wonderful sun room and outdoor seating and BBQ area. It is 10 minutes away from great shopping - food as well as a terrific outlet mall. The "ranch" is full of amazing wildlife - hummingbirds, huge rabbits, coyotes and even a javalina - all wonderful to watch and photograph. The grounds, neighborhood and views of the mountains are breathtaking. And I cannot say enough about the owners . They are delightful, fascinating, respectful of privacy, but included me in a number of their activities and parties - which was greatly appreciated. I consider them new friends. So again - 5 stars across the board. Without question.

Summary: I just spent two months in this wonderful rental, and hope to return. Clean, comfortable, easy to live in, with great hosts who live next door. I liked the location, it was easy to get to almost everywhere while being a little removed from the busyness of the city. Hummingbirds, roadrunners, hawks, horses, cattle are just a few of the things that I saw most days on my walks, along with classic Sanoran Desert botany. A well-appointed kitchen made it easy to cook, and the bed was great - something that's important to me. Good grocery shopping close by, with easy access to I-10 to get into the city quickly. I can't say enough good things about Patty and Jim - they gave me the privacy that I wanted while quietly making sure that I had everything I needed and socializing when time permitted. They went out of their way to make my stay enjoyable, including small details like making sure I had a hot water kettle and my favorite cookware. They are excellent hosts, I couldn't have asked for better, experienced landlords who care about the comfort of their guests. And really nice folks. I highly recommend this rental for a variety of reasons - location, nature, cleanliness, comfort, privacy, and caring owners. Five stars all the way!

Summary: In the more rural sand-roads of northwestern Tucson, this guest-cottage/home is part of the owners adjacent 10-acre property but is completely private. Patty and Jim are perfect hosts. They are kind, helpful, responsive and friendly but not intrusive. Startup package of tea, coffee, fruits, flowers and candles etc is a delightful touch. Good grocery shopping within ten minutes but more plentiful retail therapy is 30-40 minutes away. The unit is professionally equipped without being cluttered. Spotlessly clean. Great WiFi and two TVs. It's as quiet as you could want. An attractive open plan, an Arizona room, WD, BBQ, FP, Queen bed and a (very firm) sofa bed in the den complete the picture of a great vacation spot for two. Loved it!
