Oracle, Arizona
Located at the Ranch Store Center in beautiful downtown Oracle AZ, just 30 miles north of Tucson and 10 degrees cooler.
Sherman Cottage is a great place to get away from the heat and the traffic of the city. This one bedroom cottage includes a fully stocked kitchen, full bath and quiet back patio. With a queen bed in the bedroom and 2 twin beds in the cottage, it will sleep 4 people very comfortably.
This is an inspiring place for writers and artists to get away and get inspired. A quiet and peaceful setting awaits those who want to get away from it all. No TV and no Internet in the cottage, only peace and quiet.

Very clean. Cute location. Great base of operations. Nice hosts.
It's kind of a strange environment... loaded with quirky old stuff... but, fun. Cottage is crude looking from outside but, very nice and clean inside... well stocked with most anything needed. We really enjoyed staying here and want to return soon for the Wednesday evening party time. The long time owners (Jerry and Sue) are very friendly and excellent hosts. We think most folk would enjoy staying in their Sherman Cottage... and, in the scenic mountain foothills village of Oracle... just a few miles from the famous Biosphere... near a very interesting Zipline complex... beautiful Peppersauce Canyon... and less than an hour from Tucson.
Sue is great and she will help you with anything needed. Location is great and just 9 mins away from Oracle State Park and night skies are beautiful here.
Great owners. Always available to help.
Loved it! Cozy and quiet! The stars were amazing. Sue was easy to contact.
I was looking for a place to get out of the city and get in a few days of writing, and this was perfect! Sue was a fantastic hostess, and I was able to write with minimal distractions (there is no wi-fi and no TV, and cell service is limited), but when I needed a break the property had two consignment shops, an onsite store for the lavender farm next door, and even a stand selling coffee, made-to-order omelets, and really tasty chili. Just down the street there is a great little market with a pretty good selection of gourmet foods, including gluten-free options and an Italian deli. The apartment itself was roomy and well-decorated, with a full kitchen, comfortable bed (and two twin beds I did not try), furniture that was both sturdy and cozy, and a cool back patio where butterflies and hummingbirds, and the occasional hoot of an owl, fueled my creativity. I am already making plans to visit again with my husband (or maybe just a couple of friends!).
We needed something small, and comfortable and with a central location between Tucson and Mammoth. This little cottage was Everything that was advertised and then some. You’ll come home to a nice cool cottage, warm cozy fireplace heaters, the most comfortable bed, and most importantly peace and quiet. There is no WiFi and the cell service is spotty but that was perfect for the end of our busy days. Sue Is so kind and just a text away or there in the morning working in the most adorable antique shop. Next time I’m bringing an empty suitcase to load up on antiques! We were able to book last minute and everything was so easy and smooth. Will definitely be staying again next time we fly down from Alaska to visit.
The stay was VERY HOMEY. Expect a warm clean small place. NO TV, no phone, not much wi-fi. was very quiet nice VERY NICE OWNER! SUE and Harry were great be prepaid to buy lots of great items in Sue's shop! ALL IN ALL GREAT PLACE Mimi & Bill
Nice cozy spot. Convenient to activities around Oracle. Sue is very friendly and very flexible. Would definitely stay there again.
I just spent 2 weeks at this property and was very disappointed. The property is very old and run down, there is no furnace in it and is heated with two electric heaters that didn't do the job. It was very cold and had snow one day. I ended up going to the urgent care with a bad cold that was the result of not enough heat at nite. The bathtub has porcelain missing around the drain that is not very sanitary. There is no Smoke detector in the house. The oven in the stove wouldn't light and we never had WIFI the entire time there as promised by Sue. There was left over open food in the fridge and cupboard. I would not recommend this house to anyone.
