Exterior: As you drive down our quiet residential street in a conveniently located city location, you are greeted with saguaro cacti in the front yard, along with birds of paradise, bougainvillea, Mexican purple grass, palm trees, and desert rocks. The outside has is freshly painted. The style of the home is called territorial which is popular in east side Tucson. These homes feature a flat roof. In the backyard you will find Arizona rosewoods, bougainvillea, a misquite tree, and a selection of brazilian saguaro cacti. The pool is divable with a nice deep end. We have patio furniture as well as an outdoor grill to enjoy. Mountains are visible from the backyard.

Past the kitchen you will find the pool table which has plenty of space to play and spread out. Beyond this is another living room with a couch, a wood burning fireplace, and a collection of board games to play with the family. Off the kitchen we also have a breakfast nook to enjoy the view out the front yard. We have two separate dining areas to entertain large groups. One bedroom is on the right wing of the house.

Conservation: Our home offers some green features. We minimize plastic waste with our bathroom supplies. We recycle and expect guests to do the same.

Optional Pool Heat: We heat our water in THREE ways! One is with aquathermal solar, second is with gas, third is with pool blanket. Solar aquathermal is FREE and works well April 1-Sep 30 and maxes out in mid 80's. Gas heat is needed to keep pool swimmable from Nov 1-March 30 and is $249 for the first day and $129 for each subsequent day and keeps it at a ridiculously warm 90 degrees. Gas heat in the warmer months from April1-Sep30 is $129 for the first day and $89 for each subsequent day and will guarantee the pool at 90 degrees. Gas heat is available year-round, in case the weather is too cold on the day you arrive for the electric or solar heater to be effective. The solar blanket is required year round to keep Mother Nature happy, it reduces energy loss by 90%. If you select one add-on, it must be for all days of your booking, not just one day. 90 degrees is similar temperature to a warm bath. Just let us know after booking if you want to add the gas heat.

Excellent location! Spacious house!

This location was perfect size for our large group vacation! It's in an excellent location in Tucson and within a short drive of just about anything you'd like to do. The pool was perfect for our large group as well and was amazing for cooling off after a hot day exploring the town!

The property is as listed. We stayed here while moving in kids at U of A. It was perfect for organizing form items. We played pool, but never got to the pool outside as we were too busy. Beds were comfortable, and my husband was able to do work from home when I was running errands. Overall great pick for us.

Clean property. However, there were not enough towels provided for our group of nine. The host graciously allowed us to extend our checkout time by one hour at no additional cost.

Was Okay.

You can tell the home has had some abuse by others that have stayed there. Our bedroom door latch was janky but workable. Our master bath was missing one of the shower doors, so the floor would get wet. They said they knew of all the problems. I then assumed they knew there was only one door on the shower. The place was clean for the most part, though the ceiling fans in some rooms could be cleaned better. They did send someone to replace the gas tank on the grill, as the tank was empty. They were responsive to our calls. We did enjoy the neighborhood.

The property manager responded promptly. The property required better cleaning and maintenance. I was concerned about possible injury to toddler staying with us due to exposed carpet tacks, fence rusted through and loose, and broken furniture, etc. Internet did not work until we contacted the internet provider and fixed it - 24 hours after checking in and trying to resolve with property manager. Pool had black algae, manager sent a person they described as a pool expert to resolve the problem, the "expert" told us she had never cleaned a pool before. Three laborers came to the house to work in it, two if which had bid on the work on a job app and had no idea what they were supposed to do. Property manager moved us to a new house after two days. He said his resolution specialist would contact me within three days. One week later, still no contact.
