Tucson's Catalina Foothills Casita - Quails Nest

The Quail's Nest is a slice of heaven in the foothills of the Catalina Mountains. This modern, new build, light-filled guest house is serene! Close to world-class hiking and birding, including Sabino Canyon and the culture of the city - 15 min to UofA.

Quail's Nest is a peaceful place to pause, breathe and rejuvenate. It's ideal for folks coming to explore the Sonoran Desert, business travelers wanting a quiet place to work or end the day, a romantic getaway with your sweetheart, and those just needing to slow down and enjoy some rest and relaxation.

The kitchen is fully equipped with range, microwave, refrigerator and apron sink. Upon your arrival you'll be greeted with snacks, coffee, and tea!

Cozy living area with a comfy couch, large Smart Tv.

Spin tunes and dance the night away on the vintage turntable or enjoy a dinner under the moon and stars on the patio

The couch is a sleeper, so you can pull it out into a proper queen size bed for additional guests.

The bathroom is well-appointed with a subway-tile shower and a skylight shining down on you.

In addition to Wi-Fi, there is an ethernet cable behind the television so that you can hard wire your computer for strongest connection.

You may see many birds (like owls, quail, hummingbirds, road runners, and hawks), butterflies, and bees enjoying life. Other wildlife that regularly visit are bobcat, coyote, javelina, and Sonoran fox.


Please note: YOU DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THE POOL.

The reason for the lower stars is that the upon arrival you will learn the owners control the temperature from a remote location. If you go o/s their designated parameters they will "be alerted and you will incur additional charges. be aware- you will potentially be cold/hot depending on time of year and you will be charged if you run the heat/a/c. Not great.

Rekaxing time in Tuscon
Always wanted to see Tucson and this was the perfect place to stay. We were out and about most days and this place was perfect: large enough for the two of us with all the essentials for daily living. Very restful. Loved being underneath the mountains - especially in the early morning. We would definitely book again. We are pretty particular about mattresses and this one was lerfwct - just right. Shower ver unique and fun.

A lovely place!
My three days attending a conference so I spent not much time at the VRBO. What I really appreciated were the on site W/D, hot water, easy to regulate AC/heat and TV. I'm practical and in a hurry so these things matter to me! One note. If you arrive late after dark, the metal numbers for the key access are silver and difficult to see with bright phone flashlight reflection. The property folks were immediate in response. I got it on third try!

Perfect Home Base for Hiking/Biking Weekend in Tucson
Came down for cycling and hiking and it was conveniently located and charming and relaxing retreat to return to after our activities. Loved the mountain views and the hidden location away from traffic and action in the city.

Fantastic hidden gem
This casita was perfect for our drive in drive/out weekend. The neighborhood is great, very safe and secluded. Easy to get to and close to the university as well. We spent the weekend here for parents weekend and it was a great way to avoid the hassle of the crowds and costs of hotels next to the UofA!

Quaint
The casita was basic and adequate for the 4 nights that we stayed there. The bed was comfortable and the shower was good. The refrigerator was small and an older model, but it worked. There were ample dishes, but could use more silverware. No dishwasher, but that was OK for the two of us. It was disappointing to discover that the website listed the unit having 1 1/2 baths. There was no half bath.

Tucson Vacation
Lovely casita that was super clean and very comfortable. Pictures perfectly reflect the house. All the amenities that I could want or need were there. So close and convenient for hiking , many trail heads less than 30 min away. Neighborhood is quiet and secluded. I felt perfectly safe. House is also very private and quiet, no noise from neighbors. There is an owl that perched in the tree every night and flew off at sunrise. It was a delight for me. I would happily and readily stay here again.

Pretty good
Property is tastefully done. Good location, pretty peaceful. We came in for Thanksgiving dinner with the kids as our house is being renovated. So this property is probably equipped for 2-3 people staying and eating out. IKEA plates are fine but it lacks utensils and simple cookware. This is not a complain but a simple suggestion to get simple set of forks, knives and spoons, and some cooked. Other awkward moment was when we had people staying at the main house threatening to call police as they didn’t know about us staying there. Moreover the guest manual “discourages communication with people at the main house”. In general, besides above, we enjoyed everything, very clean and well made.
