Only minutes from downtown Tucson and the Spanish Mission of San Xavier del Bac built in 1692 lies this gem of a wilderness property in the Great Sonoran Desert. Occupying a site overlooking the Saguaro National Park, this Pueblo revival home is made from stabilized Adobe with walls that are more than two feet thick to keep out the desert heat and cold. Originally built as a small winter cottage for a family from Connecticut, this home is in the only place on earth where Saguaro cacti can beexperienced in abundance. Bordering the Tucson Mountain Park and the Saguaro National Park West, the estate sits on 10 acres of pure privacy with immediate access to the park's walking and biking trails. While frequently visited by wolves and deer, as well as Javelina, Moutainside Place is only minutes from the Starr Pass Golf Club and Resort. As members of the club, guests who stay at Casa de Saguaro can have full access to the golf course as well as the resorts spa and pools including a lazy river.

    This is a gorgeous property that is nicely secluded but nor far from downtown. The views are incredible and the house and artwork are just beautiful. A truly delightful stay!

    The property is secluded with beautiful views and a deck that extends around the house. Back door lock needed a locksmith to lock door. Dryer and in floor heating did not work.

    We had a lovely peaceful time during our stay. The accommodations were comfortable and well supplied. The host was very accommodating to our unique needs for arrangements as we traveled with an elder grandparent with chronic medical debility.

    I especially liked the Great Room with its panoramic view of mountains on all sides! The view from the pergola was sublime!

    We really enjoyed our stay. The house was well stocked with everything. Beds were comfortable. We had a great time. Loved the view! Gates Pass was beautiful and just a short drive away. Abby was great and answered all our questions. Would recommend this home to anyone looking for a beautiful view!

    My husband and I stayed at this property with our dog for a winter retreat. The views of the nearby Saguaro National Park are amazing and the view of the city is beautiful at night. The front of the property had a nice fenced in patio for our pup to enjoy some sun and ensured his safety. There is also a near by trail head for hiking. The house is equipped with everything that you would need and has beautiful artwork throughout. We would definitely stay here again.

    the property was really beautiful, real adobe Santa Fe style home with all you could ask for. Views, serenity, wood burning fire places (including master bedroom), and close enough to all Tucson has to offer but far enough away. We enjoyed this property to its fullest

    This is our second stay at this fabulous home. Once again John and his team were incredible hosts. We appreciated all of their help in coordinating our trip with our unique requests. The house is perfectly located at the edge of the Tucson Mountain Park with plenty of trailheads right out the door. The views of the mountains and the city below are spectacular. As well, the house is stunning and a wonderful spot to relax and recharge. Again, thanks to John!

    This is no corporate-owned rental property ... this is a home, with unique and comfortable decor in a true adobe house with incredible views over the saguaro to mountains and city. Access just down the street to hiking trails, yet not far from downtown, it was a perfect and comfortable stay for us and our dogs. Thank you to Ben and Jordan, and especially John, for answering my questions and making our stay so pleasant. Hope to stay again in the future!
