Please read carefully before booking and feel free to reach out with any questions! \*\*\* As a general rule, please remember that this is our family's second home. Please treat it as if you are our guest -with respect for our property and our neighbors. Leave the home how you found it. If you are looking for a place to party, this is not the house for you! We reserve the right to charge up to a $250 additional cleaning fee if the house is excessively dirty upon check-out. Also, our family has extreme allergies to smoke. Absolutely no smoking within 20 feet of the house. We will charge a $500 fee for smoking violations. \-Heated Pool: For cost and energy efficiency, we ONLY heat our pool if requested. If you are traveling Sept-May, we will touch base a week before your trip and double-check whether you'd like the pool heated during your stay. A few notes about pool heating: \-You will turn on the heater when you arrive and turn it off before you leave. Pool can take 10-12 hours to come to temperature \-Pool must be heated for a minimum of 3 consecutive days \-Pool heater will be set to 85\*F and we will monitor the temperature \-We cannot guarantee that it will always reach and maintain temperature, as everything is weather-dependent See the schedule below for the additional fees related to heating the pool. This fee will be charged upon check-in via a separate money request. Fees for Heating the Pool: Sept: $40/ day Oct: $60/ day Nov: $70/ day Dec: $80/ day Jan: $80/ day Feb: $70/ day March: $60/ day Apr: $50/ day May: $40/ day \-Pets/Animals of any kind: None allowed. Our family has serious animal allergies so we are unable to accommodate requests to bring your animal on your trip. Breaking this rule will result in fees. \-Parties: Events are never permitted. Please observe quiet time from 11 - 7\. Unauthorized parties will incur a $500 fee and the booking will be immediately terminated. If we receive noise complaints we will contact the person who booked and if verified, they will receive a $250 fee. \-Number of Guests: Please make sure your total guest count is accurate before booking. No additional day visitors are allowed. The only people allowed on the property are those who are registered guests on the booking which cannot exceed10 people. Our septic system cannot accommodate more than 10 people on the property. \-Audio and Video Monitoring: For safety and security, multiple exterior video cameras are in place at the front entryway, the back gate, and the owner's Casita. This is for your safety and the security of our home. There is no audio/video monitoring inside the home. \-Parking: Four cars are allowed in front of the house only. No parking allowed in the garage-turned-game room. For your convenience, we have provided flood lights to position under the engine at night to prevent pack rat problems if you don't plan on moving the car regularly. \-Desert Wildlife: This is the Sonoran Desert and there are animals, insects and reptiles all around. Use wisdom around wildlife. Our favorite spot for viewing wildlife is from the kitchen window! We’ve seen lots of deer, javelinas, a big turtle, and more birds than you could count -lots of quail, doves and roadrunners. We’ve seen a variety of lizards and there are undoubtedly snakes in the desert, although we haven’t yet experienced any on our property. We have also seen spiders and a couple of scorpions -again, watch where you walk, use a flashlight at night, and stay on the trails around the property. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Heated pool - Hot tub - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 4 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair - Office ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Meal delivery service ### Location highlights - In the mountains - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Heated pool - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Mountain biking nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Unit size: 3,000 square feet ## Similar properties ![House (5 Bedrooms) | Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/95000000/94960000/94953500/94953407/f5ea877b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Tucson Vacation Rental: Near Saguaro National Park Oro Valley - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-15&endDate=2026-03-16&selected=94953407&PinnedHotelID=94953407&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/118000000/117390000/117383200/117383112/61e7bd53.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Tucson Family Getaway with pool Tortolita - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washing machine 10 Exceptional 5 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-15&endDate=2026-03-16&selected=117383112&PinnedHotelID=117383112&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/45000000/44280000/44271500/44271403/d4ff6844.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Mystic Mirage is truly a desert oasis with pool and mountain views.

Online photos & description were on point (photos cannot capture the Very Large scale of the home). You have an absolute feeling of being deep in the desert (but restaurants, vineyards & hiking are relatively close). The home is an absolute beauty from the time you pull through the gate. The yard is wonderfully landscaped with the most beautiful desert succulents and cacti. Everything is perfectly stocked. The outside dining is a must to experience. The pool, hot tub and GAME ROOM are the perfect compliments. It was super reassuring to have the host, Amanda, so communicative before and during the trip! 100 STARS ##### jo w.

The property was just as pictured and the views were spectacular! Amanda was great in communicating with. Will definitely be going back and bring a few more family members next time, as there was so much space to enjoy....my only regrets were not taking more pictures & having to leave. Can't wait to go back again soon! ##### Marsha G. Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2021 ---
