Enjoyed our stay at this property! Quiet neighborhood! Very convenient location! Highly recommend!
5.0
The house was absolutely beautiful and such a comfortable place to stay with my group of friends! The neighborhood is great and there’s a few good places to eat and drink that are walkable. Erin was very easy to get a hold of with any questions, but everything was laid out so perfectly that we hardly needed anything. Amazing trip!

Weekend Getaway
We enjoyed the property very much. The pool was wonderful and our 12 year old twins enjoyed having their own rooms. We felt comfortable and enjoyed the weekend.

Charming home.
We loved the character of this home in such a quaint neighborhood! We were on spring break for a mother/daughter trip with friends. Erin was super communicative. It was very hot during our visit, so AC was wonderful in the main house and casita. Pool was great, but would have loved some more lounge seating. (But the girls certainly didn't have a problem lying literally everywhere!) Water pressure was perfect. Enough lounging space for all. Kitchen was stocked, but a little short for 8 ppl (we kept having to wash mugs and silverware.) But that was a minor inconvenience. Very quiet historical neighborhood that was great to walk around. Just a few blocks from Starbucks, fyi. Close to University and fun restaurants.

Sam Hughes spot to stay cool
The house had a clean pool that our kids enjoyed. The grandparent stayed inside to be cool and was able to see out the pool via the big back windows. The beds were very comfortable. Would come back and recommend the stay. The only issues is that all the larking is on the street by house. But sam Hughes is a safe community - no issues

Taste of the Old Pueblo
We had wonderful stay!
Erin's house is very spacious, very tastefully decorated and outdoor areas are to die for :)
Erin was able to capture heart and soul of the Old Pueblo (we used to live in Tucson in the past). There are so many small details that make you feel you are in the desert (ie: greasewood branches in the shower which give off smell of rain in the desert). We loved the carpets, furniture and all the southwestern detail. Outdoor landscaping was great too.
We used both pool and hot tub and spend most of our days hanging by the pool. The neighborhood is quiet and eclectic with big trees, adobe style houses, beautiful frontwards and desert vegetation. You can smell blooming lemon trees and see cardinals in the yards. It is jogging/walking distance to the UofA campus. Central location makes it much more easier to go either west or east without driving across whole town (we have visited both Sonora Desert Museum, Sabino Canyon and Mt Lemmon).
There is small casita behind the main house but both outdoor areas are completely private (casita guests do not access outdoor space of the main property)
Great communication with the owner.
Rental is pricy but you get what you pay for.
Would like to rent again when visiting Tucson in the future.

Wonderful Stay!
My 2 children, husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Desert Hues property over Thanksgiving. Overall, the house suited us very well. The only things to note are that there are 2 outdoor areas (one with the pool and a couch and some lounges, and one with a larger seating area/eating table/grill/outdoor fireplace). This was a slight issue for us as had chosen the house to let our kids swim freely in the pool while we visited with family members outside, but the seating area on the pool side was more limited. Not a huge problem, just something to note. Otherwise, our stay was wonderful and the house suited us quite well!
