About this property

Damselfly Studio. Contemporary, comfortable retreat with gorgeous views near SNP

With this studio I love to create a home away from home for my guests. It's like a luxurious hotelroom with privacy. 2 min from Saguaro Natl. Park - East. Ideal for hiking, biking and birding. Just outside city limits, overlooking the city with desert and mountain views. Dark night skies, howling coyotes, hooting owls and occasional javelinas. For your info; the studio is next to our casita. See more on this Dragonfly casita on vrbo.com/2504493

We booked this a bit on a whim as we were doing a National Park tour and were ending our trip in Tucson for a few days. The location (a few minutes from Saguaro East), the views, and the hospitality was fantastic. We had been on the go and it was a great relaxing end to our NP extravaganza. Would highly recommend!

Saguaro National Park stay

We had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. The Damselfly studio was roomy, comfortably furnished and very pleasant. We were very close to the Park for hiking and within easy driving distance to restaurants. Fredericka was a very accommodating and friendly host. You will not be disappointed if you stay there!
