Airstream in the desert

As advertised and worth the high ratings given by most guests! Lovely, quaint and in a great location for birds and wildlife. There are 10 or 15 different bird species that regularly visit the feeders nearby, not to mention the Bobcat, Coyotes and Javelinas that showed up. Very restful and quiet yet close to all the amenities. Susanne and hubby are delightful. Can’t wait to go back!

Serene Desert Escape

I stayed here with my partner and our dog for a couple of days to enjoy hiking in the Tucson area. It was a perfect base, included everything we needed, and was in such a beautiful, quiet area. Watching the sunrise with my morning coffee in the garden was the best way to start the day, and it was so great watching all kinds of birds enjoy the bird feeders. While the location was nice and quiet it’s still close to many restaurants and hiking trailheads.

Beautiful and Quiet neighborhood

This was a very nice stay. The property was clean and quiet and the hosts are friendly. Lots of wildlife to see and a nicely landscaped LARGE lot in the city. We had a lot of fun exploring the area. The host gave us helpful advise and directions. I wish we could have stayed another week.

Perfect!

This very well appointed Airstream RV in the Catalilna foothills is the perfect place to stay in Tucson. You'll enjoy the beauty of the Catalina mountains and the Sonoran desert, as well as the beautiful vegetation - and bird show - right outside your front door. The Airstream is equipped with everything you need, including TV, microwave, stove, etc.; and the bed is super comfortable.

Airstream in beautiful location, great views

We enjoyed our stay at the Airstream very much. The outdoor seating area is surrounded by beautiful native vegetation and gives the feeling of being close to wilderness. The free-standing fire place allowed us to enjoy the patio even on a chilly night, and the hill-top location provided a near 270 degree view.

I loved this place! Convenient location, but also feels remote and natural (I even saw a bobcat stroll through the yard). Ideal glamping experience. The owner is very responsive if you have any issues.

Hidden Gem

Very clean airstream. It exceeded my first impressions. Very happy with the communication, kindness and trustworthiness of both the owners. They respected our privacy but were always more than willing to help if we needed it. Very happy with our stay and vacation to Tucson Arizona in their Airstream.

True Camping in the Desert

We have always been campers. This was helpful. We came for the wildlife and were not disappointed. We did a lot of sitting and reading on the deck and bird watching. Wildlife viewed: Bobcat came onto deck, coyote trotted by, birds: hummingbird, verdin, cactus wren, northern red cardinal, gambles quail, pyrrhuloxia, curved billed Thrasher, mourning dove, house finch, ground squirrel more. Always be in attendance if you have a pet. We loved our experience here. Hosts were attentive, but not intrusive.

This was my third annual stay in what I consider a slice of Heaven! Nothing about the property could be more ideal…location, amenities, cleanliness, communication with Suzanne the owner, wildlife, lack of glitz, etc. Even more ideal for me will be next year’s longer visit!

Sweet spot!

We stayed here for two nights while visiting family that was staying at the Hacienda del Sol down the road. The airstream war perfect for our needs. Both beds were comfortable, everything was clean and tidy. The outdoor deck has a beautiful view. You really feel like you have your own little cozy spot surrounded by dessert wildlife.

Cute way to try an Airstream!

We'd been wanting to try being in an Airstream and thought this VRBO was a great way to do that. It was! While we didn't do any cooking, the trailer was nicely equipped with everything we might have needed. The bed was comfy and warm and the bathroom, while expectantly small, was very workable. We had a minor issue with the propane tank that heated the water and the trailer, but once we figured that out, we were warm and had plenty of hot water.

wonderful location

It is a beautiful desert/suburb location. The views are superb especially the sunsets.We spotted many birds who sang us awake every morning. Our host, Suzanne was very responsive to our needs and minor issues found in the Airstream. The trailer was clean and fun to spend some time in. If one wants a unique experience this is the one.
