You will be staying on several acres of lush desert filled with all types of desert plants, rocks and wildlife with mountain views! Explore around the property to find geodes, lava, granite, marble, limestone and more! Wildlife abounds with everything from rattlesnakes to cattle! We have several washes to explore and are told we are in an area with the most diverse desert plants. We are in view and an hour from Mt Lemon or 45 min to Picacho Peak and 30 min to Catalina State Park, Walmart and restaurants and a theater.360 mountain views with Mt Lemmon, diverse lush desert plants and wildlife, numerous types of rocks to collect, washes to explore and gather plantlife, while experiencing 5 degrees cooler than Tucson at 3200 elevation and consistent breezes. You will have LOTS of room to yourself! Dirt trails surround for hiking, biking, horses and ATV. Just off scenic HWY 79, Biosphere, and Oro Valley, Picacho Peak and Catalina state parks within 30 min away.  State Parks offer hiking, biking, seasonal creeks running thru scenic scenery and Mt Lemmon offers snow skiing 1 hr away.  Shopping, restaurants and a theater also less than half an hour drive. You won't believe Arizona's sunsets! *NOTE: You are free to allow pets to be unleashed at your discretion, keeping in mind this is the desert with cactus, snakes, scorpions, coyotes, javalina that enjoy the wilderness as well, so may want to only let your buddies be unleashed if they are good at staying right by you.
