This worked out great since we were moving my father into assisted living in Oro Valley. The kitchen was nice so we could cook and not eat out all the time. Hot tub was great and private.

It was a perfect stay for the short time we were there. Myself and my 2 toddlers slept comfortably in the king size bed and my son on the day bed, and husband on the couch. Unfortunately we didn't get a chance to utilize the pool as Amy offered. She has a beautiful background surrounded with a beautiful view of the mountains. My son and husband did get to go on a trail hike in the morning near here home. It was just what we were looking for. Thank you!

2 Night Getaway

We had a short window for a trip & decided to check out Oro Valley. The place was the perfect size for the us, a cute cozy space where we enjoyed relaxing. Ami was great, & we followed her suggestion of visiting Catalina State Park where we enjoyed beautiful hiking trails. We had a wonderful time.

Wonderful location backing right up to the Catalina Mountains. Simple but perfectly functional facilities. Our host Ami was friendly, warm and very easy to reach. A backyard flock of layer chickens gave us a breakfast of the freshest eggs imaginable.

The guest house was perfect for my wife and our dog for our one week stay. Well appointed, had everything we needed. Nice little fenced in area to lounge outside with the dog and great views. Loved the location, pretty secluded but close to everything on Oracle. Will stay again.

Perfect!

The stay was awesome and perfect for what we were looking for! We did a temporary stay for over a week and it was close by many restaurants, gas station, grocery stores like Trader Joe’s! Our dogs, kids, and adults had a great stay! It was quiet and we got to see chickens every morning which was a plus. Ami was very communicative and gave us access to her pool and yard if we needed!

The property had all the things we needed to do our whirlwind trip to Tucson area. Including the right number of beds for our group. The washer/dryer came in handy too when we needed to clean a couple of things during our stay! Great Location for exploring Oro Valley and Catalina State Park. Absolutely gorgeous views and the owners Dogs were so sweet!

Great for hiking

The house has hiking trails through a wash right next to it. It was fantastic for taking the dogs out every morning and evening. The paved road was also good for casual strolls around the neighborhood. Very close and convenient to shopping. Yard was smaller than we expected, but the hiking right out the door made up for it.

Doggie Haven!! Great location: close to stores, Tucson City proper, Zoo, Catalina State Park, Sabina Canyon, Tounono Desert Botanical Gardens and much more -- Madera Canyon, etc. only an hour or so away. Then after hiking, sight seeing or shopping bring dinner "home" or grill on the property and relax with a swim in the pool!! My dogs are "howling" to go back already!!

2nd visit! Awesome scenery & location. Pool was wonderful on hot days for both human and dogs. Had everything I needed... from kitchen to bathroom necessities. And did I say the location was perfection? 1 hour to Madera Canyon, 30 minutes to zoo, 20 minutes to Sonoran museum, 7 minutes to Tohono Chul Desert Botanical Gardens and 12 minutes to Catalina State Park. Lots of restaurants with a myriad of cuisine nearby. Perfect dog friendly get-a-way!

Convenient

Comfortable place to stay. There was one hiccup with the owners dog but it was solved relatively quickly. The owners do stay in the attached house which would have been nice to know. Also, you have to ask them to turn on the hot tub and let them know when your done to turn it off which is fine but you feel kind of guilty if it’s late or early in morning. The beds were comfortable. Cleanliness could have been better, there was hair on the ceiling above the above the shower and the floor has not been scrubbed in a while. My white socks turned brown from walking around in inside and it’s a dusty bunny hotel under the king bed. The neighborhood is nice and safe and overall is good place to stay. Just probably wouldn’t stay here again.

Excellent premises and host

Ami made sure our stay was comfortable, and all our needs met. She quickly responded to any texts and, as she lives and works in the main house, she was usually there to take care of any requests. The casita is attached to the main house but excellent soundproofing negated any noise from either side. The bedroom was large with a large TV, bedside tables on both sides, and walk-in closet. The attached bathroom offered plenty of counter space. We stayed a month and were pleased that the kitchen had amble counter space for our bread-making machine and large Berkey water filter. The spacious living room had enough clear space for our exercise mat. The neighborhood was quiet and we enjoyed many evening hot-tub dips which gazting at the stars. We plan to return next year for another month-long stay.

Great location for a short stay

This property is in a great location for restaurants, shopping and hiking. Host is friendly and quick to reply to messages. Host does need to update listing as property didn’t match online photos. Living room furnishing were not as depicted and views of desert and mountains are now obscured by large storage shed and conex storage container giving an industrial feel. Property needs a good detailed cleaning. Kitchen not well suited for longer stay or meal prep.

North of Tucson Stay

Convenient to have a pool on property available for use, with our dog allowed pool-side. Note, the hot tub required advance communication to warm up- we only used once. Note, the washer/drier is an all-in-one (I'm not familiar with those), and had better luck air drying clothing vs. using the drying function. Ami was available for anything we would have needed, but didn't need to contact too much!

Home Away From Home

This property was absolutely perfect for our large family and pets! We were a little worried about other dogs on the property because one of our dogs is an agressive barker around other dogs, but there was a secure fence and separate sitting area for the rental, and the dogs never had to interact. Like others have mentioned, the wash next to the house was perfect for walking the dogs and taking in the natural habitat. The house was comfortable, nicely decorated, but not pretentious to the point that I worried about the kids touching things. The kitchen had all the supplies we could have needed. We used to have chickens and it was such a delight to hear the "ladies" chit chatting. My only drawback was a little confusion about check in and check out procedures, but the host was very reaponsive. This was my husband's first experience with a VRBO vs hotel and he was skeptical, but he is converted now! My parents live in Tucson and we will 100% use this property again!
