Great Family vacation home, large with lots of space inside and out.The home is very eclectic inside and out, but could use a good "spring cleaning and refreshing". There was just so much "stuff" that the property seemed cluttered. Nothing was in bad shape, just seemed that it needed a good go through. The cushions on all of the outside seating, were all worn and torn and faded and obviously been there for years. We did not have use for all of the pool toys and such (not yet pool season and no kids), but they too needed a good sorting and cleaning and a dedicated storage space for them. This is a perfect place for families to enjoy the outside space, grilling and hanging out. There was just 2 of us and having the inside and outside space allowed for together and individual space. The location was perfect, it was private yet close to everything that you need. Tony was easy to chat with and very responsive. Overall, absolutely YES I would go back. Sometimes :"less is better and a good spring cleaning inside and out would make this a 10 out of 10.

Host was wonderful- responded to questions right away. Plenty of space, everything we needed was there. Very close to conveniences. We enjoyed the koi pond and private pool and hot tub. Made a fire in the fireplace every night. There were only two people on this trip but Tony’s place would be fun for a group as well.

We had a great time at Tony's place. It is spacious, has everything we needed, and Tony responded immediately to any questions we had. This would be a solid choice for small groups, with accommodations for several people. There are lots of things to do on the property, a pool, hot tub, lounging areas, an outdoor TV, and the property, while quite private, is close to the heart of Tucson. We hope to return on our next trip to Tucson.

Wonderful Property, Just as Described
4 adults and one dog for 2 weeks (April/May). Had a great time. Lots of room inside and out. No need to bring any towels as the host, Tony, had each bathroom well stocked. 3 of the 4 bedrooms are large, each with an ensuite. Bathrooms are well stocked with soaps and shampoos et al. Backyard area by the pool is spacious. It faces north but the pool area gets sun all day. There is also a large shaded area by the pool as the sun is quite strong and it did get hot which made the pool very refreshing. There are two dining tables outside, one in the shade, the other in the sun. There are loungers, chairs and cushions everywhere. For those that BBQ, there is a propane and a charcoal BBQ. Tony provided charcoal briquettes and there was an extra propane tank. The front yard faces the koi pond. It was relaxing to sit by the pond in the evening. Great property for bird watching. Tony was very responsive to any questions we had. We'd recommend this property and host 100%.
