Great place to stay!
I loved birding on the nearby Pantano Wash every morning. This property is close to Sabino Canyon and Mount Lemmon, and not too far from the east side of Saguaro National Park, all places we enjoyed exploring and hiking. There are lots of restaurants nearby and other conveniences - grocery stores, drug stores, etc. - nearby. The property was nice; we enjoyed sitting in the sunny courtyard during the day and soaking in the hot tub later on. One day while we were eating breakfast outdoors, a roadrunner wandered through! The unit was nicely furnished and well equipped. The owner was very responsive, and there was a person who was often onsite (Heidi) who was also very helpful.

Location is great for access to hiking with Sabino Canyon a short drive away. Loop trail by a Wash is right behind residence. Pretty good drive to access Tucson Downtown. Manager was very responsive. Front door lock needs much jangling to open.

Quiet and Comfortable Tuscon Stay
We highly enjoyed our stay at the Guesthouse at Horse Thief Ranch. The strengths of the property included it having everything we needed including a great shower and plenty of kitchen supplies (although we ate our meals out during our two night stay...our choice, not due to anything at the property). Communication with the owner was excellent. She made check in easy and responded in a timely manner with any questions we had. The location was at the end of a quiet residential area that seemed very safe and somewhat upscale. The Guesthouse was perfect for a couple with plenty of room and a nice private patio area on the side of the home for sitting outside (mornings and afternoons were chilly so we couldn't take advantage of this). Cleanliness was good, overall, however, we noticed some dusty areas behind furniture and on some high shelves. The important things like the bed, bathroom, kitchen, and other spaces were very clean, though. Also, the common area which contained lounge chairs, a hot tub (we did not take advantage of it), and patio area needed a bit of TLC. Small twigs and other pieces of vegetation were in various places and a clean up would have spruced things up a bit...the furniture cushions were also quite worn. However, these were VERY minor issues. We would happily stay at the ranch again due to its overall central location, cleanliness, and amenities in the guest house.

Great area/ Nice place
This unit is located in a very nice neighborhood that backs up to a nature preserve. The owners are very nice and it is obvious take pride in their little gem here. The grounds were clean and the courtyard was beautiful. We enjoyed the fireplace and hot tub, as it was chilly during our visit. It is not far from several places to hike/bike and explore. All amenities are also close- many great restaurants, grocery stores, massage, etc. The bed was very comfortable. Overall, a great stay.

Shared outdoor amenities. Like a book, don’t let the cover fool you. This space was so uniquely beautiful. It is a year round retreat with a private garden, great for morning coffee and space for your dog, or two. Parking is secure right in front of your rental. There are restaurants, fast food, and supermarket nearby. The hosts are friendly, gracious and truly care about making your stay a great one.

Well-Equipped and Spacious Rooms
Horse Thief Ranch is a lovely guest house, with plenty of room to spread out, a king-sized comfortable bed, shower & tub with good water pressure and a kitchen with all the necessities. We had a small glitch with the Keurig coffee maker, and Kendra was immediately at the front door with a new one. Kendra is a thoughtful manager. The property has a number of guest spaces, but parking was never an issue. We loved all the metal art on the grounds, and the imaginative flair used to decorate the rooms. We’ll be back.

We stayed at this property for a week in late January 2024. The guest house is a great place for 2 people. It is well equipped and furnished. The outside fenced area is spacious and beautiful--many sitting areas and two hot tubs. Great hikes are located within 30 minute drives. We would stay here again.

Wonderful Tucson getaway
The Horse Thief ranch guest house was the perfect place for us! Close to Sabino Canyon and the Mt. Lemmon highway. And situated in a lovely neighborhood with access to the Tanque Verde wash trail. We had our own little yard with a fountain and wonderful Mountain View’s. Perfect for cocktails, dinner or coffee. Lovely property with mature trees and very well maintained. The guest house had a full kitchen, wonderful jet shower, and a king size sleep number bed. We loved it!
