Tucson Get Away

We so enjoyed our stay at the Tucson Get Away.! Judy was a thorough hostess with a great instruction manual. An awesome kitchen to make my Thanksgiving recipes! I loved the views from the kitchen window while preparing my recipes. The views of Finger Rock from the house were amazing. A great hike you don’t want to miss! Communication was so easy with Judy and John. We hope to be back! A lovely home that was comfortable and relaxing! Thanks again Judy and John. Best, Kris & Steve Smith”

Beautiful Home

Beautiful home, the view was amazing. From the rooftop deck you could watch sunrise & sunset. From the movie room you can see the mountains & the desert background is beautiful. Lots of wildlife to see outside like lizards, birds every morning and even a chipmunk! Close to Saguaro National Park. Judy created a lovely book for dining options, places to explore, and spa services nearby with address & phone number. ”

Nice Desert Home

This home exceeded our expectations; nice location in the foothills and well-appointed. We enjoyed the shady patio for our morning coffee and the 2nd patio to take in the beautiful view of the mountains, and the rooftop at night to see the city lights! We enjoyed nearby hiking and sightseeing, and was blessed with unusually nice weather at the beginning of our stay but had to find indoor activities in the afternoons later in the week because it was Tucson hot! Overall, we had an enjoyable time in a comfortable home. Plus, the owners left sightseeing pamphlets and a thorough manual.”

Stunning Home with 360 Views

We feel so fortunate to have been able to enjoy this gorgeous home bordering the wilderness area of the Catalina Mountains. While the interior decor is breathtaking, my eyes kept turning to the mountains and the cactus gardens outside. We did indeed feel we were in a botanical garden with myriad specimens of birds at the feeders, a visiting javelina next door, and even a brief bobcat sighting as it hopped over the wall on its way back up the mountain through the adjacent dry wash. The rooftop viewing area enabled us to take in several outstandingly colorful sunsets washing the Catalinas behind us in alpenglow. Our hosts couldn't have been more generous in their welcoming gift and detailed information to help us make the most of our visit. Thank you so much, Judy and John!”

Beautiful Sunsets Awaits Your Arrival in The Tuscan Getaway!

This by far was the most prepared Thirdhome Host for our Thirdhome Stay! Judy was a great communicator, informative and very friendly! Judy sent us a welcoming home manual months in advance and had another one waiting for us on her kitchen island with a beautiful welcoming gift! Her welcoming manual had pages and pages of recommendations of what to do in Tucson which was very helpful since we had never been to Tucson before. We loved all of her recommendations for dining out, spas to golf courses. (make sure you go to Baja Cafe best breakfast ever and ask to be seated in Tony's section.) And the house... well... absolutely beautiful the photos do it justice...and the outdoor living was another wonderful plus, the sunset viewing from the roof top was the most magnificent sunset my husband said he had ever seen... and trust me he sees a lot of them... he is a fine arts painter,I'm sure he will relive the experience in a painting. We highly recommend you experience The Tuscan Getaway on one of your Thirdhome adventures. ”

Heavenly stay in Tucson

We spent a week in this special home which is every bit as beautiful as the photos, and perhaps even more so in person. The owners have wonderful art throughout their home, and the kitchen is fully equipped if you plan to whip up a meal before you watch something on the big screen television. Views from every perfectly placed window showcase the mountains and the incredible southwest landscape. Every night we made sure to be home in time to see the spectacular sunset. Being in Judy and John’s home was a real treat, and felt like home because it is where they live full-time. There is so much to do in the area, and most things are an easy 20–30 minute drive. So whether you want to hike, visit museums, explore the beautiful University of Arizona campus, soak in the history of the area or dine in great restaurants, there is something here for you. We highly recommend both the generous hosts and the home. We’d love to return. ”

Beautiful Christmas week in Tucson

We loved staying at Judy and John's stunning architectural home for Christmas week. The location, close to the mountains and Saguaro NP East offered spectacular views overlooking the city to the south and the mountains to the north. Serene and quiet, we sat outside at night enjoying the firepit and watching a full moon rise up as a bevy of quail searched around in the yard. The house itself is modern yet cozy with a large fireplace inside, beautifully appointed kitchen and baths, and plenty of room for 6. Thank you John and Judy for sharing your home with us.

INCREDIBLE!

We couldn't have imagined a more perfect week! The house had every amenity and more! Loved having our coffee and cocktails out in the desert garden! And the McCalebs were the most amazing hosts! Even before we arrived they gave us so much guidance about how to plan our week and all their suggestions were perfect. it was an amazing intro to Tucson. Can't wait to go back!!”

Mr

Great place. As good as it gets”

Desert paradise

Judy is a wonderful hostess. She inquired about our interests and connected us to experts in our area of interest during our stay. The home is beautiful in a very beautiful part of Tucson. The best hike we did was just up the street.If you love the desert There is no place better”
