Great sunrise views
We stayed at this vacation home for a week and were very happy with our choice. Communications with owner & host were good and they responded quickly to any questions. The house is in a gated community in a nice area of north Tucson. Instructions for entry were clear and the house was very clean and tidy when we checked in. The view from the back patio is of the Maeveen Behan Desert Sanctuary and the back gate gives access to hiking trails in the sanctuary. In the distance is Mt Kimball so the sunrises from the patio were really nice. A hummingbird feeder on the patio was frequently visited by hummingbirds and Gila Woodpeckers. There are several good restaurants within a short drive and even south Tucson was an easy 30 minutes away. The house was comfortable and served as a good base of operations for our trips to Saguaro National Park (east and west); Mt Lemmon; and the Tucson Gem and Mineral Shows.

Early Spring in Tucson
This is a nice two bedroom property in a quiet gated neighborhood. It was very clean, the king bed was comfortable, and the kitchen was adequate. Behind the property is a wonderful open space area that is great for hiking and mountain or gravel biking. Broken Tree and Quarry Pines golf courses are 5-10 minutes away. The views of the Catalina Mountains at sunset are amazing. The

Great place to Snowbird!
Tea Time starts with a comfortable setting with everything you need to feel at home, and finishes with a world-class view of the Catalina Mountains. So much to do nearby, and Pima County trails/Maeveen Behan walking trail right behind the property. Couldn't ask for a better place to stay for a winter in Tucson!

This was a very nice and tidy house with a fully equipped kitchen. Unfortunately we mainly used the house as a place to sleep as we were visiting relatives and we were out and about quite a bit. Good sized master bedroom/bathroom with a comfy bed. Would definitely stay here again.

Very lovely home in gated community!
Had a Great time at Ken's rental property! The home was very clean and quiet. The beds were comfortable with a memory foam topper, the kitchen had updated appliances and everything we needed. The home is very close to the shopping malls, stores and restaurants. The view of the mountains from the patio are stunning. Every day we would walk out the backyard gate and into the sanctuary. We would see all kinds of flowers, cactus, birds, hawks, rabbits and even a coyote walking on the golf course. There were all kinds of ducks in the pond. We will definitely come back again!!

Tea Time
The house is in a great location close to restaurants, golf, biking trails, shopping, and hiking. The house was well furnished and met our expectations. The garage has one half used by the owner. The other half has the garbage container storage and is a bit too small for our SUV with a bicycle rack. That wasn't a problem to us as the garage had sufficient room to store our bicycles and golf clubs. The back yard view is spectacular. We hiked in the desert preserve right out the gate of the back yard. Our applicable conversations with the owner and manager were great. It took us a bit to understand and navigate the fire stick app to the TV. We enjoyed our stay and will consider coming back again.

Everything was clean and this was a perfect location for us for our golf weekend. Beds were comfortable and there is everything we needed in the kitchen. The patio seated 4 people which was perfect for us. The neighborhood was quiet and the backyard backs up to the desert so there is no neighbors behind the property.

Best home we've stayed in
The home is immaculate and cozy. Everything you would need ! From fully equipped kitchen to pool towels. The home is impeccably maintained. Which made our trip to see our BIL who is quite ill. If you need anything Renee or Ken are a text/phone call away. Any issues are taken care of immediately! Which there was one very minor minor issue and it was attended to immediately and all was perfect. The neighborhood is quiet and well maintained. Pool area is beautiful and refreshing since it was 108 degrees when we were just there. :) Thank you Ken for the use of your beautiful home! And thank you Renee for the cleanest home I've ever stayed in. Makes hotels look......welll...mediocre!!! Looking forward to staying again in the fall when we come back to visit family! If I could give 5 ++++ stars I would!

Tea Time for 2 golfers
A locked gate delayed our finding the house, but only a small delay. The house was absolutely perfect for us. We appreciate Ken allowing us to borrow his residence for our long awaited vacation. The pool we were promised as part of the rental was closed during our entire stay. Not the owner’s fault as the maintenance job was done on very short notice. It was an inconvenience but not anything to ruin our stay. Ken and his manager were helpful and caring. We would recommend anyone else to rent this property.
