Guests have full access to the house except the following areas:
- Owner's closet in the hall
- Garage storage closet
- 5 locked cabinets in Laundry Room for owners storage
Other things to note
MID-STAY CLEANING: For stays of 14+ nights, a mid-stay professional cleaning will be included at no additional charge (because no one wants to clean toilets on their vacay!). We can schedule a time when you'll be out adventuring.
OUTDOOR FIREPLACE: It is wood burning and we supply kindling, fire starter, and the lighter. Guests will need to supply firewood, which can be bought at nearby stores. If there are red flag warnings due to high fire danger and winds, this amenity will be unavailable for guest use due to its proximity to the natural desert.
OUTDOOR QUIET HOURS: This is a quiet neighborhood, so we ask that you reduce all outside noise after 10 p.m.
NO INDOOR FIREPLACE USE: The fireplace has been disabled - do not attempt to use. There are LED candles for ambiance if desired.
NO PARTIES, EVER: Because this is a quiet residential neighborhood, parties, events, or other large gatherings are prohibited. Unapproved visitors will result in us asking your entire group to vacate the property immediately and forfeit the cost of your reservation. This will be strictly enforced.
MAX GUESTS: The listing sleeps 10 people total, which includes the total count of adults and kids. There is a $100 per guest per day fee for over 10 people, so if you need the extra space, you're better off finding a bigger house that fits more people!

Beautiful property with great views nestled right at the base of the mountains. The host is very friendly and responsive! Highly recommend!!
10.0 / 10.0
I stayed here with my 3 children, aged 2 to 6, and my wife for the weekend. We do a lot of traveling and have stayed in many vacation homes around Arizona, but this house really stood above them all. The house was stocked and labeled perfectly, so there was no fumbling around to find what you need. Also, the views and layout were amazing! The pictures can’t do the expansive views you get of Mt. Lemmon and the rest of Tucson justice. This is one of those properties where you walk in and immediately know you found a gem. We loved stay, and it’s all thanks to the great property and our hosts Denise and Mark.

Lovely home with a perfect mountain backdrop. Home is well played out, very clean, organized and thoughtfully managed for guests. Instructions are clear and communication with host is effective. Outdoor pool and dining area is inviting. Would highly recommend.

We stayed in this home during my son's graduation from the University of Arizona. My family shared the space with my brother-in-law and sister-in-law. It was wonderful. Everything in the house was so well organized and labeled. The area is so peaceful and quiet but just a short drive away from the university. The communications with the owner were outstanding. We were very pleased and would highly recommend this house to others.

We traveled to Tucson for a weekend golf trip and this home set the stage for a beautiful scenic weekend. The pictures don’t do justice to the views from the backyard. The property was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the neighborhood was quiet. Would definitely stay again!

This is a beautiful property! Everything in the description is accurate: It truly has all that is needed for a great extended stay. The location is beautiful and the views are amazing! We would definitely stay again! The owners were very helpful and the whole experience was top shelf!

The house was beautiful, clean, perfectly functional, documented extremely well, and met all of our needs. The kitchen had everything needed and the pool was clean, refreshing, and suited our needs very well. The firepit and outdoor fireplace was a hit in the evenings. The host was very responsive to all our questions although there were very few as the app was a giant help for check-in, how to's, and check-out. All in all an extremely wonderful stay in the Catalina Foothills!

Even though we had unseasonably cold weather and rain, the heated pool was so awesome for the 5 kids, the views were still spectacular, and the house was clean and comfortable.

Words cannot adequately describe the magic of this home. Inside and out, every single detail makes this place spectacular. The host is communicative and responsive. One of the most guest-centric experiences…we hope to return in the future.

Beautiful home with stunning views. The owner has thought of every detail. Very comfortable for our family. My kids loved the pool table and jacuzzi. Would definitely request to stay here again next time we're in Tucson.
10.0 / 10.0
The property was perfect for my family and myself. It was big enough for us all to not be in each other’s way. The fenced pool allowed us to have a safe stay for our younger children. It is a lovely property, well kept up and roomy. We enjoyed staying there very much.

This property is absolutely beautiful! The views are spectacular and the location is perfect. The yard including the pool, jacuzzi, fireplace and firepit were so enjoyable! The owner has thought of everything so we wanted for nothing during our stay. We highly recommend staying at this property!

The home was beautiful with incredible views. My children and I enjoyed ourselves very much and would request this home again in the future. Very welcoming host.

I had a conference at Loews and most of the surrounding hotels were booked due to the conference. Staying here ended up being a much better option. The location was close to the conference, the house is very well taken care of (looks like its never been lived in) and the mountain views are something else. My only complaint was spending too much time in meetings and not enough time relaxing at this great property. You wont be disappointed.
10.0 / 10.0
Really enjoyed our stay. Great location, near everything you need. Amazing views. The owners put a lot of effort into making sure the place is renter friendly for such a nice home (sometimes when you are at a place it takes you half the time you are there to figure out how things work - not at this place). Pretty much everything is labeled from where kitchen items are and what different light switches do. Very subtle, but very helpful, they have put a ton of effort into making it a rental property by having videos, a dedicated web page for reference, and paperwork placed throughout the home. This is not just someone's home and you are on your own. The home has everything you need. I love when there are spices, etc... There were even zip lock bags! They have a cute shelf for you to leave stuff that you purchased and don't feel like hauling back home. The owners were very attentive and responded immediately to a few questions.
The rule of thumb for us on VRBO's: Would we live there? Yes, we would, like as in forever. My wife called this the perfect COVID home. Meaning that you could really find a space in the house to get away to work, or just be alone, but it is still cozy. Everything is high end. The outside is huge. The pool is great. Not every VRBO must be perfect to be a 5 star, this is a 6 star!

Beautiful home. Gorgeous view. The pool, hot tub and patios were wonderful with great landscaping. The host was lovely. Amazing attention to detail with quality furnishings and pretty decorations. House was well stocked and well thought out. High quality linens and kitchen items. Nice area. Well suited for our large family. Hoping to find another reason to visit Tucson so we can stay here again.

What an awesome place to hang out and feel like you have had a true vacation. Pool and spa with amazing views. Well appointed home and pool table playing in the evening was fun. Perfect home for family time.
