Super place!

We loved it! Nancy's home is interesting, very private, and felt like an urban retreat. She did a great job of welcoming us and getting us comfortable with her home.

A unique home

An amazing home and an architectural marvel. Every morning, I loved waking up to the full view of the garden all around me. We enjoyed the house during our one month stay, and planning to come back again if we can. Nancy and Erica were very nice and communicative.

Beautiful desert garden retreat

A beautiful, light- and art-filled retreat with a gorgeous desert garden…in the heart of Tucson. What a treat to stay here; minutes from downtown and easy access to fantastic hiking spots in all directions. The house is a true retreat, with an amazing garden, and lots of beautiful spaces to curl up and read or sketch. The architecture is stunning, and the owner’s warmth and thoughtfulness is reflected in every detail. A true gem.

Gorgeous Gem

The home and gardens are architectural and design marvels and every inch of the home is filled with artful moments. Nancy and Erica were fantastic to work with and we enjoyed many of their suggestions for dining and entertainment when we weren’t exploring the gem show. They quickly resolved a water main issue and kept us informed. Loved the beauty and the tranquility of the home and setting. Fabulous host and home!

Sanctuary In The City

This is a fantastic gem of a property and a host! The property is a large, zen, garden oasis in the midst of the city but with the privacy one typically only finds on the outskirts of town. Half of the plants on the north half of Tucson must be in this garden alone! A woodfired hot-tub overlooks the garden's comfortable living nooks including a banquet table large enough for a gathering, relaxing lounge chairs, serenity placed benches beside saguaros, and all-weather sofas and loveseats. It is a hummingbird paradise! On the other side of the house is an all season screen porch that leads into a like-wise private herb garden and barbeque. Our host Nancy went out of her way to take care of us and teach us about the property! Fantastico!!!
