Please note: The front gate, front yard, and side yard are shared spaces with the downstairs unit. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE BACKYARD IS RESERVED FOR FIRST-FLOOR GUESTS ONLY. We kindly ask that you be respectful of these areas and keep noise to a minimum, as other guests may be staying below during your visit.

We’re local to the Tucson area but not onsite—if you need anything during your stay, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re always happy to help!

CREDIT CARD INFORMATION REQUIRED UPON BOOKING: The host requires a credit card hold / temporary pre-authorization (“security deposit”) to cover incidental expenses including (but not limited to) necessary additional cleaning costs due to guest negligence, removal of (or damage to) property, lost keys / rekeying costs, and other extraordinary expenses that are not the fault of the host. These expenses will be charged to the credit card provided. If the incidental expenses exceed the amount of the credit card hold or the available credit of the credit card, the guest will be responsible for these damages as well.

Also, if you're interested in renting the entire property—including the first-floor home for full privacy—or just the first-floor unit, there are separate listings available. Click on my profile and scroll to the bottom of the page to find the appropriate booking option.
