Doggie Haven!! Great location: close to stores, Tucson City proper, Zoo, Catalina State Park, Sabina Canyon, Tounono Desert Botanical Gardens and much more -- Madera Canyon, etc. only an hour or so away. Then after hiking, sight seeing or shopping bring dinner "home" or grill on the property and relax with a swim in the pool!! My dogs are "howling" to go back already!!

Home away from Home

I reserved this VRBO for my parents while they were visiting from out of state. Everything was super cute and very clean. Ami was an absolute life saver and and got things ready for my parents - who showed up a day early - with no notice. My parents loved having their own place that they could call "home" while they visited with their dog.

North of Tucson Stay

Convenient to have a pool on property available for use, with our dog allowed pool-side. Note, the hot tub required advance communication to warm up- we only used once. Note, the washer/drier is an all-in-one (I'm not familiar with those), and had better luck air drying clothing vs. using the drying function. Ami was available for anything we would have needed, but didn't need to contact too much!

Fantastic views and walks, Remote & Quiet, outdoors needs attention.

The Host was most helpful, beds comfy, area quiet. I Want to give a better rating yet rented this property based on the daily use of shared outdoors area and pool. Host did not notify until arrival that the pool pump had been out. Pool was green all week. Several large Dogs are friendly yet they are in and out of pool/hot tub, did not feel the area was sanitary. Private patio has unkept chicken enclosure nearby, allowing foul smell into private area and near entryway. Parking and access great.

Love this place! Great views! Highly recommend!

Ami’s vrbo was perfect for us! Ami, family & 3 dogs are very friendly & welcoming! Ami’s home is located in the back of a safe, quiet residential area nestled up under Pusch Ridge in the Catalina Mountains. We saw folks walking, walking dogs on leashes, running & biking. Traffic was minimal & slow so it felt very safe to walk the streets to get some exercise & take in the views on our off days from hiking. This 4 room unit (entrance way/living room, dining/kitchen area, bedroom, bathroom) is very clean and comfortable, has a well-equipped kitchen & bathroom, 4 person dining area next to a huge window where the outdoors is right there (we saw hummingbirds coming to a flowering plant multiple times each morning every day) comfy bed, sheets & blankets, couch, TV’s, & we especially loved the beautiful patio in the sun, secluded from any breezes during the morning coolness. The huge windows in the living room, dining area & bedroom (with blackout curtains for night) made it easy to be connected with the outdoors & the mountains, moon, stars, sunrise, & sunset views are great. The location was wonderful! The mountain views covered in a variety of cactus are lovely & peaceful. We had a lot of fun walking the nearby wash & streets to see quail, hummingbirds, bunnies, sparkly stones, cactus, hawks, & a wide variety of songbirds. Had a coyote howl outside our window one night & saw one walking down the street one afternoon. The sunsets here are gorgeous! We'll be back!

Convenient

Comfortable place to stay. There was one hiccup with the owners dog but it was solved relatively quickly. The owners do stay in the attached house which would have been nice to know. Also, you have to ask them to turn on the hot tub and let them know when your done to turn it off which is fine but you feel kind of guilty if it’s late or early in morning. The beds were comfortable. Cleanliness could have been better, there was hair on the ceiling above the above the shower and the floor has not been scrubbed in a while. My white socks turned brown from walking around in inside and it’s a dusty bunny hotel under the king bed. The neighborhood is nice and safe and overall is good place to stay. Just probably wouldn’t stay here again.

We had a very nice stay. The rental was clean, comfortable, and felt like a home away from home. It was spacious, had a full kitchen, and the location made it easy to get groceries and find good places to eat nearby. The property manager was welcoming and quick to respond, which made things easy. We’d definitely consider staying here again.

Excellent premises and host

Ami made sure our stay was comfortable, and all our needs met. She quickly responded to any texts and, as she lives and works in the main house, she was usually there to take care of any requests. The casita is attached to the main house but excellent soundproofing negated any noise from either side. The bedroom was large with a large TV, bedside tables on both sides, and walk-in closet. The attached bathroom offered plenty of counter space. We stayed a month and were pleased that the kitchen had amble counter space for our bread-making machine and large Berkey water filter. The spacious living room had enough clear space for our exercise mat. The neighborhood was quiet and we enjoyed many evening hot-tub dips which gazting at the stars. We plan to return next year for another month-long stay.
