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!

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!

Cozy desert retreat
This is a very delightful property on the outskirts of Tucson. Beautiful views of the mountains and amazing sunsets. Very comfortable accommodations for two people. We drove into Tucson a lot for golf, biking and visiting local taprooms. A fun, casual restaurant also is conveniently located just a couple miles away. It’s not within walking distance of any attractions but that is offset by the tranquil surroundings.
