Roger's place was great for us. It is clean, well stocked and comfortable. There were plenty of coffee pods and even laundry soap. The mountain views are wonderful. Highly recommended for an out of town stay.
Excellent all around! Clean, quiet, and wonderful location! We had everything we needed and Roger was quick to get back to us if we had any questions. Quick drive to great hiking and biking. Thank you Roger- we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
We had a great stay! The Thornvolds were awesome hosts who know the area well. Thereâs also a small family of Javelinas that stay on the hillside if youâre lucky enough to spot them. We look forward to coming back again next year when weâre in town for the gem show. Thanks again for a great stay!
We had a lovely stay for a few days during the Tucson gem show. It was extremely clean and comfortable with everything we needed. The loft cottage was well appointed and had obviously been built with care. Thank you, Roger, for a wonderful place to call home temporarily!
This is a unique property that is clean and well designed. I enjoyed sitting on the patio(s) for coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening. It is located within a few hundred yards of some of the best local mountain biking and walking trails. This is a rural area that offers a great alternative to staying in Tucson. Highly recommend.
We stayed here for 5 days and used it as a base to visit the Greater Tuscon area. The place was very well furnished and spotless. Comfortable and cozy. It is far enough from the busy city, yet close to have everything you need nearby. We would definitely stay here again. While it does require that you drive on unpaved roads, the roads are crushed stone and in good condition.
I can't do anything but rave about this spot! 5 stars on all fronts, very nice and secluded, very well stocked, and comfortable bed! I will be coming back ASAP. Even as a Tucson local, this was the perfect distance to feel like I got away without having to make the time, travel, and cost of going to Phoenix. Well worth every penny!
This place was perfect for what we needed. It was clean, comfortable, cozy, and quiet. We particularly enjoyed watching the wildlife including all the colorful birds and the javelina. Roger was a great host and he keeps his property up nice. The only reason I didn't give it five stars for location was because of the dusty roads to get up there and the stairs are tough on older folks. Otherwise this is a great place.
Everything was as listed or better. Reviews talk about the road not being paved, take your time and you'll be fine, it's the desert. Fridge was smaller but big enough for 4 days of meals with a very large grocery store well within 5 minutes. There are a few houses around but the home is up high enough you can see over them and see the Catalina mountains. Go ahead and book it!There
We were visiting family in Oro Valley. This was our first time using VRBO. I had some initial questions before we arrived and Roger answered promptly. He was a great host! This little place was just what we wanted- and we enjoyed staying here. Very clean and equipped with everything we needed. It is a little tricky to get to as others have said. Itâs close to some nice hiking trails. The view from the balcony was spectacular! So happy we stayed here!
Great get away location away from city noise. Not a paved road getting close to location but our little car did ok. Its a sudio set up, not a 1 bedroom. Worked great with balconies to enjoy the view and outdoors. Bird watching was fun.
Refrigerator very small if staying several days. Wish we could have made ice for drinks.
What a beautiful and peaceful location. There are two decks to enjoy morning coffee viewing the Catalina Mountain range and to watch the evening sunsets. Wildlife and desert plants abound close to this lovely studio apartment. It offers what a single person or couple needs for a get-away in the southwest. Roger, our host, was friendly and welcoming. Close to many hiking trails and off-road routes, it is worth checking out. Thank you once again for a most enjoyable stay. Tom & Ethel, Michigan
