Perfect vacation spot

Our stay at Julie's Duffy property was absolutely all we could have hoped for. The house was clean, well furnished, and filled with local history. My family enjoyed reading about the previous owners and their passion for rock collecting. We enjoyed the mountains, the hiking, and the restaurants of Tuscon, and it was awesome to look forward to coming home to this property. It was just away from the busy streets, and the neighborhood was clean and very quiet. I'd highly recommend this house, and we'd love to come back again.

Nice house in Tucson

The king bed was kind of hard for one of us and the queen bed was kind of soft for one of us. Otherwise no complaints. Good comfortable house, nicely furnished, kitchen was good enough, clean, nice quiet neighborhood. Would come again.

Cute and close to everything

Spent the week here with my parents, husband and 7yo son, everyone loved the retro vibe of the house, and while the pool was a lil cold for me (it was February) that didn't stop my son from using it and having a great time! Ron stopped by the house 1 day to check on the pool and provided us with a lot of great things to do in the area. The location was great, was close to just about everything and was a nice quiet neighborhood. We will definitely stay here again in the future!

The "Gem" on Hawthorne

We were here for 19 wonderful nights during the annual Tucson Mineral and Fossil Show. The house was immaculate, the kitchen amazing, the beds comfortable. Ron, the property manager, was very helpful. This is a very special property with an interesting history. We look forward to our stay in 2025!

Lovely home in quiet neighborhood

We stayed for a weekend in the summer. The house AC worked great and the pool was amazing. This home is very well decorated and stocked. The water pressure was great and the beds were all very comfortable. There is ample parking including covered parking. The property has great privacy and is located on a col de sac. Lovely back yard that our doggies enjoyed. I would highly recommend this place. We will stay here again for sure.

Great little oasis in the city

Check in was easy even when we requested to do so early. House had everything we needed. Beds were comfortable. Lots of upgrades to a vintage house (it is adorable). Lots of outdoor seating and shade. Aside from the pool, the grass and huge shade tree helped to keep us cool too. Would definitely stay here again.

Great property

This was an excellent space--so easy to get to places we wanted to visit. Necessary stores nearby. Great place for our two dogs, as well. The dog space has plenty of room, so they could run around. It was quiet. And it was well-stocked with what we needed to do our own cooking when we wanted. Would highly recommend this property! Thank you!
