About this property

Mountain Home Pool VIEWS Garage FUN Backyard Spacious Private Close to UofA

  • If you like sunsets, swimming, stars and saguaros....You have come to the right place! This home will be the perfect setting for your family vacation or friends getaway. Although the home sits on 3 acres and feels like a private resort, it is located only minutes from The University, Downtown, Tucson Intl' Airport and much more.

    Located at the edge of Saguaro National Park West, you will find a new appreciation of the Southwest and Southern Arizona after your stay .

    This home has plenty of room for a large family or multiple couples and will be a true escape from the outside world as you surround yourself with the Tucson Mountains and centuries old Saguaros. 4 comfortable bedrooms (1 king, 2 Queen, 1 Twin x 2) with well appointed, updated furnishings + plenty of common area space to share will create a relaxing atmosphere for everyone in your party. Also, a 2 car garage is available for guest use to keep your vehicles out of the sun!

    Enjoy the home with your friends and family year round as you swim in the pool, visit in the spacious kitchen, hang out around the billiards table, watch the big game on one of the three 65 inch tvs or just taking a moment to soak in the beauty of the mountains will be a highlight of your vacation.

    Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy so many options for fun, just a few minutes out the door. Feliz Paseos Trail Park, a 57 acre preserve just across the street, is perfect for a shorter excursions while the Camino de Oeste trailhead/David Yetman Trail is a famous trek multi-leg trek through the Tucson mountains is a short drive or hike. Cyclists are in for a walk out the door treat for some unforgettable road cycling through the West side of Tucson. If you prefer to go for a drive, one of the most scenic routes in Arizona, Gates Pass is less than 5 minutes away and a quick trip to The Sonoran Desert Museum.

    For those looking to enjoy the unique metro experience of Tucson (a UNESCO certified City of Gastronomy) this home is a short drive to some of the city's top spots. Check out the MSA Annex and Mercado San Agustin right down the road with some great dining and nightlife options, or vibrant downtown Tucson and eclectic 4th avenue just a few minutes further with options galore.

Great home, great location

Great location for bikes and hikes, and outdoor pool area was perfect for cooling off and enjoying the evening desert air. We ate outside every night, and enjoyed listening to the birds and coyotes.

Saguaros, swimming & sunrise delights

Nice property on the west side of Tucson amidst the saguaros and other beautiful desert flora. The host was excellent and we were able to relax by the pool. Dining options were plentiful in this area of town. We would definitely stay here again!

A small group of long-time friends gathered in Tucson to remember a friend. The house is beautiful and the location was perfect for us near local parks, Gates Pass, and easy access to the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. Would be delighted to stay here again!

Everything was fine and a nice experience. The host made no attempt to meet with us and only had a name Hal. No emergency phone number no direct communication. Only through delayed emails. Being in hospitality ourselves this should be corrected. In our case probably not an issue as we know how to deal with toilets, electrical issues and storms but the average guest does not and things can happen. Just a suggestion to make a very nice place even better.Thank you GilbertOnce we made contact all went smoothly and as I said the accommodations were perfect inn every way. They were as advertised and very clean and all necessary items were in the home.Very happy overall with our 5 day stay there.

Great stay at Tucson Mountain Home

A lovely, private, secluded home for our family vacation, our first to the Tucson area. Very quiet setting in the hills and close to hiking trails and Parks. Plenty of room for our family of 5 and one guest. Very comfortable beds. We like to cook, and found the kitchen to be well equipped. The pool and outdoor shaded area were enjoyed by all after return from daily sightseeing. Hal, our host, ensured check in was easy and efficient. We had no issues during our stay, and the Host answered the few questions we had promptly and cheerfully. Both the Home and Host highly recommended.

Great family home / perfect for U of A families

Our family of 5 stayed here as we moved our son into his freshman year at U of A. Everything was just what we wanted. Lots of room where we could relax, super comfortable beds, and a heavenly pool. The gorgeous landscaping was an added bonus. There are multiple places to sit outside and just be thankful for the beauty. It’s an easy 20 min trip to campus and even shorter trip to groceries. We will be making lots of trips to AZ from DC and would love to stay here regularly! Thank you Hal for the warm hospitality!

Explore a very comfortable winter geraway

The location was as advertised. It felt away from all, in natural setting and yet very close to anything we needed,Tucson is not a huge city and driving is easy except rush hour.The house itself was way more than we needed. I think a larger/older family or a group of friends could enjoy it immensely. It is large, spacious indoors and out and quite comfortable.A bit warmer temperature would have made the pool a hangout. I especially loved the pool table.We took in a U of A basketball game, hiked a bit, played tennis nearby and explored the area.

Great home away from home, but much more beautiful, spacious, peaceful, and mindfully relaxing.

Our group of all out-or towners and international visitors, family and friends, were at Hal's for my daughter's graduation from U of A. The room layout is great for bonding and rekindling relationships, where we spent a lot of time hanging out rather than dining out. Friendly interior decor. To boot, the location is ideal, 20 min from the center of town and the school, and only 10 from the lovely Sauaro Nation Park. As new VRBO renters, we were worried about the rental process, but Hal kept us updated. Thank you for welcoming us with the comp coffee and wine Hal. The place had lots of towels and kitchen amenities. The AC and fans worked fine, plus the garage to keep us and the cars cool. A few suggestions: pls get the bathroom faucet fixed - water flow is slow. And most of us could have used a step stool to climb into the raised beds. Thank you Hal for a memorable stay. .
