About this property

Across from Saguaro National Park (East)

Wake up to the Sanoran Desert in the middle of 7.4 acres. Pour yourself a coffee and watch the sunrise over the Rincon Mountains and 550,000 acres of wilderness. Take off for a day of exploring. Tucson offers well over 100 miles of paved, mostly level bike paths in and around town and countless more challenging rides and unending single track trails. When you're tuckered out, head back to your casita for a hot shower, pour a drink, and sit on the West side of the house and watch the sunset over the Tucson Mountains. Put a match to the fire in the chiminea and you'll warm up as the desert cools down. A good night's sleep in the cozy casita and you'll be ready for more adventures!

Desert Gem
A cozy little casita! Host Ali and Dick were so accommodating and had lots of tips on what to see in the area. The location was close to so many great points of interest. The property was very comfortable and inviting. We enjoyed days on the go and relaxing nights by the fire. A great little getaway that’s perfect for couples.

Great Getaway!
We're new to AZ and this was our first venture out to explore this wonderful state. We chose this VRBO due to it's proximity to several sites we wanted to see in the Tucson area. The accommodations were excellent and the hosts are really fun folks..well traveled, very talented and fun to visit with! The casita was as advertised..very quiet, beautiful grounds and very comfortable. One thing to note is that there is no TV..however, the internet is fast and we were able to catch a couple of movies on our iPad so it wasn't a problem. Overall, we would highly recommend this property and would definitely stay there again if in the area!

Good location
We wanted a place near friends that live in Tucson, and near the Saguaro NP - this was a great location. The little garden around the entrance was a nice touch. Watching the sunset off the back porch was great.

Great location / Wonderful Hosts
Very clean. Great location, close to everything but set back off the road for perfect night sky viewing. Hosts could not be nicer. Loved our stay. We would definitely rent this again!!

Travels to the Saguaro Casita
Oh, what a find! This lodging is magical, and the hosts are sooo accomodating. Truly, the casita is one of the most comfortable lodgings we have ever stayed at. The bed was very comfortable; the shower was just right with plenty of water. There are lots of materials in the casita with information about the area and Tucson, in general. Being located across the street from the Saguaro National Park (for all purposes, one is in the park) is a bonus. As a midwesterner, the casita's southwestern decor was beautiful. Over the entire property are native plants, nurtured and thriving. Both Ali and Dick, the hosts are captivating. We so enjoyed the opportunity to share sunsets with them. I would like to thank them once again for sharing their world and giving folks like us the opportunity to enjoy some time in the desert.

Saguaro Casita
Beautiful Casita next to Saguaro NP. The out of doors is spectacular but the Casita is also very comfortable to hang out in and outside. Dick and Ali are lovely hosts with lots of great ideas for places to hike, eat, and visit around Tucson and elsewhere in SE AZ. Will definitely stay there again!
