We loved the convenient location and the beautiful backyard pool and hot tub. We are only 2 people, but the house is ideally set up for a larger group with multiple bedrooms, bikes, pool toys. Everything was clean and in good working order. Needs a few updates in the kitchen and better towels and sheets (less quantity and more quality.) Good communication with owner.

Location was nice, close to everything you would need but still felt quiet and private. We didnt go out much except a scenic drive for part of a day. Reading the literature that Christie left us seems like plenty of activities to do! Between the heated pool and jacuzzi we just hung out and visited...Probably biggest compliment I can give is that it was comfortable to stay there. That is huge for us. We would stay at Christies house again without hesitation! Thanks you Christie! ##### Paul G. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Courtney R.

The house was big enough with lots of sleeping options to accommodate our family. Christie was super responsive with great friendly and professional communication. This was a comfortable family home that was beautiful and clean with everything we needed. Check in was easy and no-fuss. By far, the best part, though, was the stunning pool! We spent hours, day and night, enjoying the wonderful views and atmosphere. The house is a bit of a drive from the major Tucson attractions we wanted to visit, but well worth it. Thanks for some great family memories! ##### Courtney R. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Colleen B.

My daughter got married at the Buttes of reflections, which is very close to the rental property. Christie is very organized. Everything we needed was in the binder when we arrived and yes, everyone is hooked up to technology these days, but it was nice to have her opinion in the books also. The beds were comfortable definitely some of the best that I’ve slept in compared to other rentals. This place was completely stocked with everything we needed. Matter of fact, this is the only rental that I have ever been in that was this well stocked. She made a comment to us that we were very low maintenance guests and I appreciate that however I feel the reason we were so low maintenance is because she offered us anything and everything we could possibly need so we did not need to ask for anything. I know that if I am ever looking for a rental in the area again this will be the first place. I’m looking to see if it’s available. The next best part was the heated pool and hot tub, especially in February during the day when it was in the high 60s mid 70s The pool was tolerable. Otherwise we used the hot tub that time of year is still a little cool for swimming even when you’re from Wisconsin. I highly recommend this rental. We even used the outdoor gas grill, which appeared to be almost brand new and cooked steaks. It truly felt like we were on our own resort. ##### Colleen B.

This was a really great place to stay! From check in to check out Christie was great to work with. She even let us check in a little early which my daughter and I both appreciated! The house was clean and the neighborhood was safe and quiet. The best part was the back yard! It was nice to cool off in the pool since it was July and very hot! The views were amazing! We also got to see a mama quail with her baby and a lot of other birds. We really enjoyed Tucson and being able to stay here made it all that much better! ##### Janet H.
