The 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom detached cottage features a kitchenette and a full bathroom with two tandem parking spaces in the driveway.

For guests staying in the 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom rear guest carriage house, you’ll have exclusive access to park tandem in the driveway and use the south side gate entrance to enter the rear of the property. Please ensure that the steel double doors on the north side of the house remain closed at all times.

Guests staying in the 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom main house will receive two parking passes for street parking in front of the house. These passes should be kept on the dashboard or mirror at all times to avoid parking tickets from the City of Tucson.

Immerse yourself in the vibrant energy of downtown Tucson. Explore the renowned 4th Avenue shopping district, indulge in delectable cuisine at diverse restaurants, engage in outdoor activities, and experience the lively nightlife.

Nestled in the heart of Tucson, you’re just a short walk away from the charming neighborhood coffee shops and restaurants on 4th Avenue. No need to worry about driving or renting a car during your stay. Enjoy complimentary rides on the electric car trolley throughout downtown and 4th Avenue.

VERY good location! Loved the nearby coffee shop, short walk to lots of fun restaurants and bars. Quiet street, we were a little confused on the parking at first, but figured it out! Not fancy but perfect for us as we explored Tucson and the surrounding area.

We had a great 1 week stay in this cute carriage house. The location was great. Lots of nightlife, food, free trolley on 4th street around the corner. Downtown area with similar items is a 5 minute walk. To enhance the stay, the property needs a couple wall shelves with hooks. You could place your things on the shelves and hang your backpack, purse, hat, jacket, etc on the hooks.

We are two friends on an Amtrak trip west. We stopped over in Tucson and this little place was perfectly situated for someone traveling by train. It's very close to a lively, funky neighborhood, but the street itself was very quiet. Great coffee shop on the corner and an excellent grocery coop in easy walking distance. The tram is right there, as are docking stations for e-bikes. We were very happy we stayed here.
