You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

‘Garden House’ - Beautiful Mid-Century Home

Welcome to your spacious, modern, and carefully furnished 1950's ranch-style home in central Tucson's Garden District. A lush garden with three patio spaces, a chiminea and Weber barbecue are designed so you can get the most of Tucson's sunshine in the winter months. Within 2 min drive of Trader Joe's, the Rillito River Park pathway system, and 10 minutes from the University of Arizona campus. Owners (Michael and Rosanna) are artists and plant lovers that celebrate the culture of the southwest.

This home houses the studio of professional landscape artist Rosanna Marmont and displays a significant collection of her Tucson inspired paintings.

At 1500SF, it has ample room to spread out and make use of the numerous garden patios, a living room and a reading room. Natural lighting and large windows throughout. Bedrooms are private and quiet for your respite.

**All bedsheets are good quality linen (no synthetics) with down comforters and pillows. Wifi and Hulu, Disney Plus and HBO included.

A pond and fountain encourage an urban bird paradise, with the sound of birdsong and tumbling water filtering throughout the property. The three burner Weber grill tapped into the natural gas is a perfect amenity for hosting casual gatherings or dappling in some traditional Mexican style cuisine. The kitchen is fully stocked for all your needs, including good strong coffee.

Empty closets throughout allow guests to stay comfortably and make this home their own.

The Garden House felt like home right from the start. We loved studying each art work. Each expresses a mood, a feeling, and moment in time. The colors of the furnishings, floors and walls and selective decor all seemed drawn from the paintings. The gardens are like an oasis and filled with beautiful plantings. Thank you for the delicious coffee. All was perfect.

We stay at the Garden House whenever we’re in Tucson, and it never disappoints. The home has every feature and amenity you could want, with a well-stocked kitchen, plenty of linens, and ample closet space. The video projector for TV and streaming is a great touch, and original art decorates every room. We especially enjoyed the multiple outdoor seating areas set in beautiful garden spaces. The host is very communicative and easy to work with. Will be back again!

We were in town for a family birthday celebration and booked this home because it had enough rooms and appeared to have nice backyard space. We were blown away with the well appointed inside spaces but the backyard was a little slice of heaven. Highly recommend!

The house was lovely and so close to Sabino Canyon! The backyard was like its own oasis and the perfect place to relax. Morning coffee next to the water feature was magical. The attention to detail throughout the house was apparent and greatly appreciated. Filtered water, puzzles and weights, the projection TV (amazingly clear!), recycling and beautiful artwork were wonderful touches that made the whole experience even more special. Thank you for sharing your home.

The house was immaculate with easy access, a nice kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms and a beautiful back yard. It was quiet and peaceful and the owner was kind and quick to respond to messages especially when I found myself in a medical emergency after checking in. After several communications the situation was eventually resolved between VRBO, the owner and myself in a manner that I appreciated and was happy with.

Desert oasis

We enjoyed living with Rosanna‘s artwork in this comfortable, well stocked home. Each morning we woke up to birds singing. Lounging in the shaded garden on the hammock and comfortable outdoor furniture was the best! This is the best place we’ve stayed in Tucson so far while visiting our daughter at the U of A.

I can’t say enough about this fantastic house!

We stay in this centrally located home every time we visit Tucson to see our relatives, and it’s always a wonderful experience. The location is fantastic, and the house is truly special, with original art thoughtfully placed in every room. The backyard is a serene oasis, complete with a lush garden feel, a gas grill, seating in two distinct areas, and even a calming water garden.Rosanna, the host, has thought of everything. The kitchen, living room, bathrooms, and bedrooms are all fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. Her attention to detail makes every stay effortless and enjoyable.

Cozy, comfortable and just Perfect!

My communication with Rosanna was great, she was responded after every email and was very detailed with everything we needed to know about the house. We anticipated arriving in Tucson and early and she was able to accommodate us with an earlier than normal check-in time. The house was so nice, clean, simple and so comfortable. We were all amazed at the artwork and both the front and backyards with the plants and all the seating areas. We could not have asked for a nicer, cozier home to spend the weekend. We are already set to come back next year to participate in the Tour de Tucson again and agreed this is the perfect house for us. We cooked all our meals at the house and the kitchen had everything we needed and having the coffee and other essentials in the kitchen was an added bonus. If we could give it more stars, we definitely would give it a 10. We will be back and thank you again for being the perfect hosts.
