The two cats in the yard might be bobcats strolling by! (It's a reference to the Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young song for those of you who are too young to know!) This 900 SF casita was custom built in 2010 on a one-acre lot. The casita is attached to the main house by an open courtyard, a high tower foyer, and covered patio. Come enjoy this beautiful one bedroom guest home located in the scenic Northeast Tucson area. You will have your own direct access to the casita, private patio and your own heating and A/C controls. The spacious living room/kitchen has exposed beams, granite counter tops, an upgraded 55” 4K television and SW design details evident in the numerous arches and fully tiled floors. A full dresser and closet complete the bedroom. Bathroom has custom tiled shower, and full-size washer and dryer. 9' ceilings, and mountain views throughout the property. The beautiful courtyard and your own covered patio with a Weber gas grill lie just off the living room door. Privacy walls surround our entire 1-acre lot. Five outside sitting areas allow you to fully enjoy the beautiful, sunny, Tucson weather, cozy up around the fire pit, or sit peacefully under the mesquite trees overlooking a meadow. It's a short 1.3 mile walk or drive to parking for the Bear Canyon entrance to Sabino Park where you have access to iconic hikes such as Seven Falls, Blackett's Ridge, Phoneline trail and many others. We are 4 miles from the base of Mt. Lemmon with stunning views (Windy Point), numerous hiking trails and restaurants. You can bicycle right out the door or ride 4 miles to the Tucson bike loop path which offers 100+ miles of paved pathways. The casita is in a quiet, peaceful setting and yet close to several great restaurants (Tucson is a foodie's delight), grocery stores, and 25 minutes from downtown. Our casita is well-maintained (Dave is a retired contractor and keeps up with repairs), clean, freshly painted, with updated appliances, dinnerware, cookware and linens. We know what we would like when we stay at a vacation rental, so try to provide the best experience for our guests. There is much to do and explore in Tucson and our casita will be a tranquil setting for your home base. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Fenced yard - Firepit - Furnished patio - Gas grill - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washer/dryer ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Tile flooring in public areas - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In the mountains - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Casino nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Deadbolt lock ### General - Property does not allow children - Unit size: 900 square feet ## Similar properties ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/20000000/19450000/19447700/19447652/6d39547e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Private Southwestern Style Casita with Lush & Fully fenced Lush Yard\*\* Peter Howell - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.8 Exceptional 164 reviews CA $105 CA $280 total includes taxes & fees Nov 11 - Nov 12 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-11&endDate=2025-11-12&selected=19447652&PinnedHotelID=19447652&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27130000/27128700/27128671/d53a7f98.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Private 2 Bedroom Mountain View Casita - Completely New in 2017 - Desert Setting Tanque Verde - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 10 Exceptional 38 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-17&endDate=2025-11-18&selected=27128671&PinnedHotelID=27128671&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor spa tub](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/19000000/18770000/18765000/18764987/a31157ce.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Amazing City And Mountain Views From The Foothills Of The Catalinas Tanque Verde - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 174 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-17&endDate=2025-11-18&selected=18764987&PinnedHotelID=18764987&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/60000000/59930000/59920400/59920339/838098ab.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Quiet 3 acre Ranch Home with incredible mountain views!!

The furnishings are nice, tasteful and comfortable. Everything was provided we could wish for - paper towels, shampoo, coffee filters to name a few items that are often bring-your-own. The owners are next door but we literally only saw them once as he refilled the bird feeders out back. We didn’t use the pool or hot tub but they looked nice. Location is convenient to shopping and restaurants. ##### Hilary G. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bob K.

Hosts Ro and Dave are so friendly and the home is very well-equipped. Great location in a quiet neighbourhood of north-west Tucson, very well-situated for access to Sabino Canyon, the Saguaro National Park (west) and so many other places of interest.

We’ve enjoyed getting to know Dave and Ro the past two springs. I love nature so the backyard is perfect for viewing a variety of birds including several species of hummingbirds. The backyard has different seating areas so you can choose sun or shade chairs for reading that book. We also enjoyed the hot tub while watching the sun go down behind the mountains. Restaurants and grocery stores are close by. Hiking in Saguaro National Park isn’t too far and we really enjoyed Agua Caliente Park which reminded me of Florida with all the waterbirds in residence. Definitely will be back to this enjoyable vacation casita! ##### Diana S. Stayed 11 nights in Apr 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Emily B. Jun 14, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### Would not recommend! This rental is nice, but be aware that the owner is not honorable. During our stay we found out my mother in law had 2 weeks to live. We had to check out 3 days early and asked, if there was anything they could do on a refund we would appreciate it, but we had to leave regardless. Dave said no problem he would send a check (which I was a little suspicious about since he could have refunded on VRBO, but I figured maybe he's old school) We were grateful that he offered a refund and thanked him. We had to cancel the rest of our trip to Sedona and Winslow as well. When we got home a few weeks later, I reached out to Dave to remind him about the refund. He replied accusing us of lying about why we had to leave. Saying that we were talking about wanting to go to Sedona and asking did we really have an emergency. VRBO knows that we cancelled our other reservations. He also said that we checked out late( we left about 15 min. after c/o) so that made them very suspicious of us. We had a 3 day drive ahead of us, so leaving early in the morning would not have changed that, also we had to wash dry and fold all the linens as per their c/o procedure. He recalled us telling him she had been sick for awhile, and we shouldn't have burdened them with a potential emergency. I let him know she had COPD for a long time but found out she had cancer while we were in AZ. She never told the family because she didn't want anyone to worry. We also sent a copy of the obituary (when we got home) and explained that we did not want to cut our vacation short, but obviously had to. If we had known she had cancer we would have been with her, not travelling to AZ. We gave them an opportunity to apologize, but never got one. They should have been honest from the beginning and told us they couldn't offer a refund. We would have been fine with that. We were astonished that Dave would be so understanding to our faces and then accuse us of lying after the fact. It was disheartening especially at such a sad and stressful time. This place is nice, but just based on the way we were treated we cannot recommend staying here. Be very cautious. We stay at VRBO rentals all the time and have never encountered anything like this. The crazy part is that Dave was acting like a friend while we were there talking with us at length. We are so disappointed at the way this was handled. Dave definitely owes us an apology. ##### Emily B.
