Tucson, Arizona
La Casita de Tucson is a unique private getaway for up to 4 adults. Our guesthouse stay includes a hot tub & counter-current pool and a large deck for picnics and sunbathing. Great view of the Catalina Mts from the pool area.
Our casita is large (1200 sq. ft.). While it has one bedroom / one bath, we also have a comfortable queen size Aerobed for an additional 2 people.
Located in the foothills of the Tucson Mountains, our guests feel the spaciousness and serenity of the Sonoran Desert and enjoy the beauty of our surrounding mountains and star-filled nights. But we are only 15 minutes from downtown and 25 minutes or less to the University of Arizona and several golf courses, including Quarry Pines & Starr Pass. Silverbell, a well-maintained muni, is only 10 minutes away. Good restaurants are about 15 minutes down the road.
The furnishings and decor are definitely Southwestern comfortable. The main room has a high-end home theater with 56' HDTV, Blue Ray DVD player, and built-in surround sound. Here you will find an extensive library of CD's and DVD's. WiFi, of course.
There is also a large bookshelf of Travel, History, and Brain Candy books to suit most everyone.
The bathroom has a beautifully tiled walk-in shower. A shower bench seat is available. Fresh linens & towels provided.
La Casita has its own backyard, patio, and BBQ. Our guests enjoy interesting grounds, including cactus gardens, a rose garden, a mission fountain, and three patios with many strange and fascinating plants. Laundry can easily be arranged. The washer/dryer are in the main residence. Just ask.
La Casita is perfect for those who want to visit Southern Arizona's many attractions, such as Bisbee, Tombstone, Titan Missile Site, Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, Air and Space Museum and our excellent history museums that illustrate the area's rich Native American, Spanish, Mexican and Anglo heritage. Several fine Indian Casinos and many hiking trails are nearby.
Our website is Southern Arizona Guide. Here you will find our recommendations for best dining, things to see & do; plus lots of local history, original videos and photo features. Should you be here for one of our regularly scheduled guided tours you may find that of interest too.
We have a new dog, Dozer. He only has 3 legs, but don't tell him. He doesn't know.

Warm and cozy. gracious host. Our second time to stay, will go back again.perfect for a couple.
We are so thankful for the peaceful, clean and comfortable space to spend a long weekend! Our hostess Ms. Karen was very helpful and kind. The hot tub and pool were delightful. We were happy with the close proximity to hiking! Excellent Birding was a bonus!
We had such a relaxing, peaceful weekend at La Casita. The property had everything we needed and was in an excellent location....away from the city but not too far. My favorite part of the trip was spending the morning on the back patio with my coffee and the numerous birds that came to visit every day. The owners were excellent communicators and I enjoyed chatting with Karen about the garden and the grounds. I would stay there again and highly recommend!
If you love hiking, a sweet dog, fantastic evening views, and great, kind hosts, this is your place! Karen and Jim are gracious hosts who have a terrific knowledge of the local area, and the casita is wonderful - it was better than we hoped. It is private and nicely situated on the property to provide cool shade when you need it, great sunrises, comfy furnishings, with a home theater system that is beyond expectations. The property is a stone's throw from the Saguaro National Park, which offers nearly unlimited hiking and moutain biking. Enjoy your stay!
This is a beautiful casita in the desert. Communication with Karen was fantastic, and she went out of her way to make my stay pleasant. Including everything you could need for your stay. It was very quiet, private and close to mountain parks and hiking. I can't wait to go back. Still so much in the area to see. Very highly recommended!
Outstanding place for a weekend off the grid! Fenced in backyard was great for our dog and having access to the hot tub was fantastic.
We found that the Casita met our needs very well and exceeded our expectations, The casita itself, well-stocked, felt airy and spacious with the tall ceilings and enough room in the bedroom for both reclining chairs and a desk. Outside Karen has made a great cactus garden with a flagstone walking path through it. One of the branches of the path leads to the hot tub.... We found the hiking three miles away at Sweetwater Preserve to be very good for a daily go-to hike, no need to drive to the national park. Jim and Karen were as knowledgeable as one could ever find (they run the southern Arizona Guide website) and were great hosts and folks to talk to. Two thumbs up!
This Casita was a wonderful pick for my husband and I to spend our 24th wedding anniversary ❤️ this place is perfect for a couples getaway. To be perfectly honest we had a hard time leaving to go and explore. Waking up and having coffee on the back porch overlooking the beautiful garden and watching the birds was a wonderful way to relax and unwind. We enjoyed a concert I surprised my husband to go see his favorite band Puscifer. We drove the Saguaro National Park not far from the Casita. The next day we drove to Tombstone and Bisbee and enjoyed a piece of history. Our last day came way to fast. We loved our stay, made wonderful memories ❤️ Dozer is and added welcoming bonus! Everything is well stocked for cooking. Bathroom has what you need if you forgot your bathroom bag goodies. The bed was comfortable and nothing my husband and I slept very well. The hot tub and the stars at night was also very relaxing. We will be back! Thank you Karen and Dozer for making our stay welcoming and cozy in the beautiful Arizona desert!
I doubt you could find a more charming and comfortable well- designed home than this large casita. Coffee in the morning on the patio hoping to spy the baby quails once more or enjoying the pool in the evening chatting to the hosts. A perfect stay.
This lovely casita will wow you! It's just far enough out of town to enable you to feel the desert, but close enough to amenities to make it easy to take advantage of all Tucson has to offer. Lovely space inside and out, and the owners are so kind and accommodating. A special shout out to Dozer, the real gem at the property. Hope to return someday soon! Thank you!!
