Had an excellent stay with friends at Jenn and Jon’s place. The home was wonderful. They were communicative and provided great recommendations for things to do in Tucson. Their place was about 20-30 min by car from downtown but close to great hikes and outdoor activities and provided great views. I totally recommend it and would happily stay there again.

Perfect location, close enough to U of A to be convenient, but far enough away that my son felt like he was on vacation. House was spotless and organized, plenty of space for two families traveling together. We will be back!
