Charming Southwest-Style Home with Pool, Birds & Wildlife plus Mountain Views

Spacious 1455 sq. ft. southwest-style guesthouse located on 3+ acres. Nestled amongst majestic saguaro and other desert plants and cacti, which affords plenty of privacy from the owners property next door.
Situated close to the Tucson Mountains and just minutes from I-10 freeway for easy day trips to Phoenix and Norgales, Mexico, plus 20 minutes to downtown Tucson. Private yet close to shopping (5 mins drive), golfing, and bird watching.
Approximately 3 miles from Saguaro National Park West for hiking, scenic drives, picnic areas and camping.

Graduation Trip
We traveled to Tucson for a UA graduation. The property was ideal. Close to I-10 for access and out away for peaceful desert nights. Communication was prompt and requests for a family get together were accommodated. We were there for 12 nights, felt like home after one. Couldn’t be happier with our stay.

Amazing Desert Vistas and Bird Watching
The pics online don't do justice to the location and surroundings of this amazing place. Close to Saguaro National Park, we enjoyed the easy access and afterward spent a lot of time on the outside patio watching wild birds feeding and soaking in the peace and tranquility.

Spring Birding and Hiking Trip
Lovely area in the spring if you love the desert and birding! Cooked all our meals and enjoyed the porch in morning and pool in heat of the day. Visited the National Park, Desert Museum and Sabino Canyon! We hope to return a third time! Towels, linens and bedding all very nice.

Lovely house surrounded by desert
The house was spacious and comfortable. The shaded patio was a great place to enjoy desert views and watch birds at the feeders.

Perfect Tucson Base for Hiking
This is a nice home in a beautiful setting, close to Saguaro National Park. Kitchen was well-stocked, and there were even hiking poles in the closet for guest use. Carella was a great host and communication was excellent. Would definitely recommend.

Amazing stay in the desert
Beautiful 3 bdm 2 bath home in the desert. The kitchen has everything you need from spices to equipment. This is beautiful property on acreage but minutes to groceries and a Costco. The property owner is located in the house next door and available if needed, but otherwise we didn’t see her at all.

This was our second stay at this property. It is well furnished, accessorized and maintained. The bird and wildlife viewing is 1st rate. Close to the bike trails and other activities. We will stay here again during April. I would highly recommend staying at this property.

Such a great place to stay!
The property was exactly as described! Clean, quiet, and spacious. Used the house as a touch down place while visiting Tucson for the annual gem shows. It's conveniently located near the highway which made traveling super easy. The property is also located very close to all types of shopping and restaurants. The host was very speedy about resolving an issue with the wifi and very responsive to other questions. I really enjoyed the well maintained, but natural setting of the property. And the birds at the feeders were fun to watch in the morning. Already booked the next stay and I can't wait to come back!
