Sites are well marked with high stakes and numbers. Paul has leveled out the turn outs in a gentle arch. Only suggestion is to continue cutting back the brush to avoid Arizona Pinstripes.

Unfortunately, due to a family issue I was not able to attend stay at the Urban Camping site. However, I want it noted that the host stayed in contact with me to confirm that everything was in place and ready for my stay.

A peaceful quiet spot very close to town. I enjoyed the wild birds as well as the chickens. Gin was a great host, and helped me park to get maximum solar. I’ll visit again.

we had a wonderful stay at pesha's place and it was perfectly located for me to bike to campus for the meeting i was attending. our sprinter van tucked in perfectly in her spot and with the walls and trees was quite private in spite of being right on the street. there was even a safe, out-of-sight spot to tuck our bikes. the location is really ideal for getting around. whole foods and several restaurants are within walking distance, all of mid-town tucson is within biking distance, and the bus goes right by her place. tucson buses are still free and that line takes you downtown.

Despite its proximity to town, it’s peaceful and quiet, offering a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle.

Pesha was an exceptional host. The space was perfectly adequate, nice and level and worked well for our little RV. It was a bonus that we were able to use the kitchen and bathroom - so helpful. The location couldn't have been more convenient for anyone visiting Tucson. Really enjoyed meeting Pesha. She gave us a great restaurant recommendation. What a lovely person!

This is the prefect urban spot to enjoy both the city and surrounding attractions. Paige is, by far, the best hostess there is. Very welcoming, very friendly and helpful. She is definitely a people person and makes you feel right at home. She loves the city and has great suggestions for you to enjoy it too.
