Perfect home for our stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The huge island and large dining room table provided ample space for eating or just hanging out. There was plenty of seating area in the living room to watch TV. We loved the walk in shower in the master bedroom. Renee was a great host and was very responsive.

Comfy, Clean, Well stocked
I am actually from this very region of Tucson and was in town for a family event, so wanted a place near my family. I have rented many vacation rentals, and this house is easily in my top 3! The home is located in a quiet, lovely neighborhood in NE Tucson, on a large lot with Palo Verde and Mesquite trees, and I was happily entertained daily by ground squirrels and lizards, and gentle birdsong every morning. Renee seems to have anticipated every need for travelers and stocked the home with all of the necessities as well as many creature comforts, like throw blankets in the living room. From the moment I walked throught the door I was extremely pleased and instantly comfortable. Everything truly looks just as it does in the photos, and the home was very clean and well organized. Renee is a thoughtful and exceptional host, and I will happily return to this property in the future.

Perfection
Everything was perfect about our stay. The location was perfect for us, house was clean and comfortable. The flowers, pastries and fresh fruit on arrival was a wonderful surprise! Having toys, books and movies for my granddaughter was also a plus! We have stayed in many rentals and this is definitely the best stocked one. There was every kitchen item you would need to prepare food for the family. I would recommend anyone needing a place to stay in Tucson to stay here!

About the host

Hosted by Renee Burnett

Host profile image
My husband David and I moved to Tucson almost 20 years ago looking for our future! We found a wonderful city filled with many things to do but still retaining the feel of a small town. We are both now semi retired and wanted to share the beauty of Tucson with others. David worked as an independent insurance adjuster while Renee has her own bookkeeping firm, Dream Books. She travels to small business to help them with their bookkeeping need. We are parents to 2 wonderful daughters and one outstanding son-in-law, all living in town! And grandparents to the two best grandchildren! (Doesn't everyone have the best grandchildren?1?) We enjoy being outside on our patio watching birds and waving to neighbors. Life is as slow paced as we want it to be.

Why they chose this property

Roadrunner Alley was passed down to us by David's family. We stayed at the home many times through the years before we moved here. We felt safe letting our young children playing out in the yard and cal-du-sac. We know that your family will make as many wonderful memories as we did in this fully remodeled home.

What makes this property unique

While desert weather is wonderful in the winter, it is a short drive to Mt. Lemon a peak over 9,000 ft elevation for all your winter sports. If you are a bike rider, part of the rout for Le Tour de Tucson is only a block away!
