We stayed at this property while in Tucson for parents weekend at the University of Arizona. The house is absolutely gorgeous and immaculately clean. It was beautifully furnished, and a pleasure to stay in. The neighborhood was quiet and comfortable and we would absolutely stay there again! We highly recommend this property.

Really nice inside. Nice gathering spaces. The neighborhood was not the best. Enjoyed the stay.

Overall the property had some very nice amenities, HOWEVER, the pool was freezing and could NOT be used. I ran a pool for 30 years and I suggested a relatively inexpensive "fix" on Vacasa. Tell the owner- anyone thinking the pool was the clincher to taking this property will be sadly disappointed.

Felt really torn when having to give stars. The property itself is very cute and was the perfect amount of space & great location, and had we not had the issues we did I would have given more. If this was just a cleanliness review I wouldn’t even give 1 star. We arrived after a long day of traveling with delays and two children, one being a toddler. The beds had the prior customers dirty sheets and blankets wadded up in the middle of the beds. The house had not been cleaned whatsoever. Toilets had feces in them, the floors were so dirty that my kids’ feet were black after walking inside for 5 minutes. Trash cans were full, etc. spend the first night having to wash someone else’s bedding & did my best to clean the floors and bathrooms with what supplies were there to use. I let management know right away and sent photos. No one ever came to clean during our stay. We were there to visit family and to mourn the loss of my grandfather who passed two days before our arrival. Having to clean up after strangers was not what I wanted to spend my time doing during our short stay, but it had to be done for any of us to feel comfortable. Really disappointed.

This was a gorgeous and comfortable home to stay in. The house was spotless, number one requirement in my book. The kitchen was well-stocked with appliances and utensils. The pool was a fabulous option for hot, sunny Tucson summer days. All in all a great vacation home. Thank you,

It is a great house in a good, quiet neighborhood. It was close to stores. We could not get the stove to work so we could cook the food we bought though.

We enjoyed the layout of the house. We could relax inside or outside. The kitchen was well equipped. The instructions for entry and trash were not clear (no "lock box") and gate in back was locked. Overall, a nice place to stay when visiting Tucson.
