Remote yet Close to town
My friends and I stayed here for 10 days. The place was perfect for our group. We spent some beautiful nights around the chimnea on the back private patio, nightly use of the hot tub was great. It was too cold to use the pool, but a few of the boys took a VERY quick dip...lol. The host Tony was very responsive to all inquiries. I highly recommend this place. I'm sure we will be back at some time in the future. Diane

Great stay
This house met our needs. We came in for a week of hiking, so other than evenings, we were on the go. The house is in a small neighborhood, but Tony’s place sits back off the street so feels quite secluded. The fish pond was a highlight of our time at the house. Tony has chairs set up around the pond and the fish trained to swim up close anytime you sit outside. If you have allergies or sensitive to strong smells, this house may not be for you. There is a strong “fireplace” smell throughout the house. It did not bother us, and we quickly became nose-blind. But working in pulmonology, I could see it affecting some. Ask Tony for restaurant suggestions. Amazing!!! Tony was very easy to get in touch with - always with a quick reply. We would rent with Tony again if returning to the Tucson area. Thank you, Tony for a great week!

Perfect location in West Tucson
I rented this house for 6 family members to stay during Thankgsiving and it suited our needs perfectly. The kitchen was well equipped, everything worked well, the gas stove was a bonus. The outdoor space had plenty of chairs and tables. My older nephew loved the hot tub, we did not use the pool as it was a bit cold outside. The bedrooms allowed each couple to have their space and privacy. Bathrooms were spacious and well equipped. If I have family come again to Tucson I will definitely rent this home. Thank you Tony!
