Wonderful Repeat Visit
This is our fourth time using Horsey Ranch in Tucson, and it was equally as good this year as in past. Eight of us stayed for the weekend thoroughly enjoyed the indoor and outdoor space, kitchen equipment, large screen, TVs, and easy to get to Tucson location. Also love being on the Riverwalk. Will be coming again next year.

Needs a refresh- quiet setting with nice courtyard
We enjoyed the quiet setting, especially because we were traveling with a dog. The unit was tired and dated. We were most disappointed with cheap bed linens. I bought a set of sheets from Target to make the stay more comfortable.

Not Fancy in the Foothills
The host was very responsive however did not come by and offer a tour of the location. We have never stayed in a casita before and didn’t know what to expect. This is not the type of accommodations we are accustomed to as we are used to amenities such as a dishwasher and quality towels. The photos do not accurately reflect how small the place is and I was not comfortable with cloth furniture during Covid. Also, the way the bathroom is laid out right next to the bed is not conducive. Finally, the note implying that one would steal items from the site was off putting. Not our style. We will not come back here.

Nice cottage for 2.
We were on a short anniversary get-away. Unfortunately our stay was bad timing. We had the air conditioning unit go out in living area & the oven and stove did not work either. Repairs were scheduled but couldn’t get fixed in time for our stay. We had an air conditioned bedroom so we stayed there but couldn’t use the living area, therefore we didn’t stay around much to use the amenities like hot tubs & yard. Also, there are no bikes even tho it says in description or reviews. (Another disappointment) With all those things that went wrong it was not what we hoped but the place was nice enough that we might consider booking again.

Trip to Horse Thief Ranch
We recently stayed 6 nights at the Ranch. This location is located in a quiet neighborhood. Loved the rural feel. The accommodations had everything you need. Laundry was located next to our suite and used by all suites. There are several outdoor seating areas for guests to use. Rating as a 4 because the range was not working and needs repair. Other than that. It was a great, relaxing place to stay. Would definitely stay there again.

Amazing location, and amenities
I chose this location due to its proximity to the Catalina's (went hiking this weekend). I was pleasantly surprised by the whole experience (other than the check in process). The Casita I stayed in (Casita C) was wonderful, clean, and perfect for two people. The property was beautiful, and the laundry room, the hot tubs and outside kitchen were wonderful amenities. Oh, also; Myrtle the Turtle made me smile so much. I highly recommend for any couple wanting to visit Tucson.
