We spent four days in Tucson, and this lovely house was perfect. Location was convenient. Plenty of room for my husband's sister, her husband, two brothers and their wives. The bedrooms were decorated beautifully, with stunning artistic murals on one wall in each. Each bed was very comfortable and the entire house was squeaky clean and brand new. We stay in several VRBOs throughout the year, and I can attest that this kitchen was the best equipped of any we've stayed in. The living room was nicely furnished and large enough for all. Four of us went for bike rides in the bikes provided on the amazing bike trail. If we travel to Tucson again, we will definitely stay here!

This was a perfect house for our second annual women’s pb trip to Tucson. We stayed here the first time around too and liked it so well we came back! The house is great! Perfect for our group of 6. Good location, quiet, clean. Julie responds super quickly to any communication. We hope to continue this annual tradition and Bikehaven will certainly be our first choice for accommodations. Thank you!

Wonderful house and very clean. Loved the location, we didn't get a chance to ride the bikes, due to family celebrations. But will stay here again.

This is a fantastic property! It is immaculately clean, bright, spacious, and perfectly located! Just one block to the bike trail is unbeatable! Excellent communication with the hosts.
