I really don't know what to say! This property is phenomenal! We have never stayed in anything like it. The property is gorgeous and so much fun for families. It was like we rented a whole resort. Kristen was amazing, so responsive and everything we could have needed was there. She has thought of everything. Location is great. Grocery store is so close as well as restaurants and you are at the base of Mount Lemmon which is a lot of fun to visit. We will be back for sure!

Kristen & Chris were so gracious & accommodating, they have an Amazing property, from private casitas for the guests, wonderful entertaing areas around the pool, bonfires, fabulous BBQ, swim up bar at the pool, multiple places to enjoy around the property. The main house worked well for all of us to gather for breakfast, visiting or just hanging out together..... the property is totally beautiful, peaceful and Chris & Kristen have done so much with it!. Just when we thought things couldn't any better, they would surprise us with another feature. From planning, seamless check it, days enjoyed, this was a totally wonderful stay for our group of 12.

Great Stay in Tucson
Our group of 14 friends and work associates really enjoyed our stay. It was nice having private rooms for everyone, the pool area was a fantastic gathering place with ample room for everyone. The owner was very responsive from time of booking through to the end of our stay, and while on site they checked in from time to time to see if we needed anything. Everything about our stay was very enjoyable.

Peaceful
We were there for our daughter’s wedding at Tanque Verde,(which is only about 15 minutes away) Not only is this ranch beautiful, it’s serene, and so peaceful. The calm we needed while stressing out about a wedding. It was not warm enough to use the pool, but we were able to catch some sun sitting around the pool area. Everyone enjoyed looking at the horse barn and the cows. Kristen and her husband went out of their way to make sure our family was more than accommodated while we were there. We can not thank them enough for making our Tucson experience the best!

The Hidden Gem of Tuscon, Arizona
I recently stayed at Woodland Road 1882 Historic 12-acre guest ranch in Tucson, Arizona, and I can't recommend it highly enough. The moment we stepped onto the grounds, we were captivated by the beauty and tranquility of the surroundings. The property is meticulously maintained, offering a serene and relaxing atmosphere that was perfect for our family reunion. The owners of the ranch were incredibly welcoming and accommodating, making sure that our every need was met throughout our stay. It was evident that they take great pride in their property and genuinely care about the experience of their guests. One of the highlights of our stay was the pool area, which was beautifully designed. Additionally, there were various gathering spots scattered throughout the property, allowing us to enjoy the stunning surroundings from different vantage points. The presence of horses, cows, and donkeys added to the charm of the ranch, creating a true sense of rural tranquility that is hard to find elsewhere. As someone originally from Southern California, I can confidently say that Woodland Road 1882 Historic 12-acre guest ranch is a hidden gem that exceeded all of our expectations. Should we find ourselves in Tucson again, there's no doubt that this is the place we would choose to stay.

Perfect property for our group
We hosted a professional retreat of 12 adults at Kristen's property. It was perfect for us - everyone got their own casita or private room in the main house. We had plenty of common spaces for meeting and socializing. The property is beautiful, and we enjoyed going on walks and meeting the cows and horses. Kristen was extremely helpful and easy to work with, and often went out of her way to help coordinate deliveries and services for us, set up the fire pit for us to have bonfires at night, and was extremely responsive whenever we had a question during our stay. We were a bit of a high maintenance group with the all of the various logistics we were managing, and Kristen was nothing but kind, flexible, accommodating, and communicative. And even with all of Kristen's support, we still felt that we had a lot of privacy during our retreat. Extremely positive experience.

This property was perfect for our stay: i) everyone had a private bedroom and bath (beds were super comfortable), ii) main house was perfect gathering place for breakfast and dinner each night, iii) on-site fitness facility, iv) pool area was fantastic, v) really enjoyed the fire pits on the property for reliving the day's golf activities (Kristen, the host, provided ample firewood and extra seating for us). Highly recommend this property. We hope to use it again on our next golf trip to Tucson,

This property is stunning! I organized a retreat here and it was the perfect fit for our group. There was plenty of space and privacy for our 16 person group. Kristen is friendly, responsive, and accommodating! We had positive interactions with her spouse and the staff onsite who made us feel welcome. Our retreat participants felt safe and enjoyed exploring the property and nearby ranches. Our favorite part of the experience was visiting the cows and horses on site! Thank you Kristen, you are an incredible host and we are so grateful you shared your home with us.

Amazing property and hosts
The ranch is beautiful and perfect for large or small groups. Kristen accomodated our work team retreat and went above and beyond, including receiving deliveries before we arrived, early check-ins, even s'more sticks and firewood! All the rooms are clean, comfortable, have fridges with drinks, and the bunk room is perfect for kids. The house is beautiful and roomy with so many places to conduct separate meetings or have space to just retreat to by yourself. The horses and other wildlife are the icing on the cake. The location is also very near a grocery store and restaurants. Overall a 5-star stay! Thank you, Kristen and family!

Class reunion
this is a great property! the owner/hostess was onsite and she was incredibly responsive. The pool area is fantastic, the big house is very nice and the casitas, while rustic, afford privacy and the basics needed, e.g. towels, coffee maker, mini fridge, etc. This is an ideal spot for a family reunion, small corporate retreats and similar events. Highly recommended! The neighborhood is also good for walks, lots of small ranches nearby.

This place was beyond amazing. The pictures do no justice for how the property looks in person. We had our wedding reception here and the pool area had more than enough room to accommodate all 20 people and made for beautiful photos. Kristin was more than helpful and made us feel right at home. The horses and cows were just a short walk away and they were perfect for the kiddos to feed. Words can’t express how amazing the property was, would give this place 1000 stars if we could.

We saw lots of wildlife (some we would rather have not seen lol) and enjoyed the beautiful landscape. The pool is more spectacular then we had anticipated. The water stayed cool all week long and there was more than enough room for all 25 of us to enjoy it at the same time. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home with us!

The ultimate for a family event/retreat/reunion!!!
We all LOVED this place. To say it's a place isn't even fair - it's got lots of green space to stretch out in addition to so many areas to gather together and socialize. The pool area is what initially convinced me to book and it was even better in person. There's ample amounts of shade for those seeking to stay out of the sun, too. Kristen was awesome - as she was with previous guest reviews. The main house is a bit away from the 7 casitas, but the walking paths are lit at night. We never locked our doors, either. This place is so great that rather going there for an event, we're thinking of planning an event just to be there.

Spectacular girls trip!
We were a little hesitant to book this listing. At the time, there were no reviews, and the house seemed a little too good to be true. However, it didn't take long to learn who the owners were, and the house was indeed real and rentable! There were 9 adult women from all parts of the US, and this was our annual get-together. All 9 of us were blown away by this property. Not only were the owners as lovely and kind as it gets, we each had our own rooms/bathrooms. Each casita was decorated a little differently. The main house is a bit of a walk from the pool area and casitas, but for us, that was not a problem. As we learned, the house is in the desert, and there are desert animals, so you must be aware of this. I wouldn't suggest walking barefoot, in the dark, across the large lawn/driveway area. The pool area was unbelievable, and the gym was an added bonus that we used every morning. I would highly recommend this for any big group/family function. We LOVED it. Thanks again for our wonderful experience!
