Enjoy breakfast at the breakfast bar, or head out to the covered back patio through the sliding glass doors, where a table and grill await you. As evening descends, gather around the fire pit, mesmerized by Arizona's breathtaking sunsets.

The neighborhood enjoys the peace of undeveloped land on two sides and the Santa Cruz wash on the third, creating a safe and friendly atmosphere.

Bring your furry friends along, as the ranch is dog-friendly and provides pet blankets and feeding bowls. Horse enthusiasts can also find ample space for trailers and onsite parking within the fenced property.

Entertainment options include streaming capable TV's in the great room, master bedroom, and kid's room. Feel free to use your own streaming services, as cable and local TV are not provided.

To ensure security, the entrances and exterior of the house are monitored by security cameras, but your privacy is respected indoors. RV travelers are welcome with ample parking space, though no connections are available at this time.

Plentiful onsite parking in the secured fenced property.

Reach Rancho Hermoso easily off the freeway frontage road south of the Congress St exit, just turn right on 18th St to Kroeger Ln and your destination. Enjoy quick car access along I-10, into downtown, 4th Avenue & University areas, and across town on Aviation Highway (210).

Prefer to walk or bike? The Santa Cruz River loop runs just behind the property (access from the 19th street park), taking you north or south through town, or arrive quickly at stops for the Modern Street Car (Trolley) and the San Augustin Mercado district with multiple dining and shopping options.

While not onsite, we are available 24/7 for your needs and have local staff available to come onsite if needed.

Rancho Hermoso lies in the unique and exclusive niche neighborhood of Barrio Kroeger Lane, surrounded by historic Menlo Park, just minutes on foot from Mercado San Augustine and the Modern Street Car, and backing up to the Santa Cruz River loop, a favorite for biking, running, or hiking through its 53.9 miles of paved pathways along both sides of the Santa Cruz River and connecting with the Rillito, Pantano, Harrison Greenway and Julian Wash.

With easy access just off I-10, you're steps way from one of the best taquerias in town (Sonoran Delights with the fabled Sonoran Hotdog, authentic tacos and dinners, Raspados and Escamoches!), the Mercado San Augustine and it's MNA Annex with multiple restaurants, stores, and bike rentals. Plus with the modern street car a 10-minute walk away you're connected to all that's cool about Tucson and it's Downtown, 4th Ave and University Districts.

This sliver of a neighborhood enjoys being peacefully surrounded by undeveloped land on two sides, and the Santa Cruz wash on the third. The few neighbors here are primarily long time home owning families on their own generous lots.

Barrio Kroeger Lane Neighborhood is located below Sentinel Peak-- "A" Mountain-- along the Santa Cruz River, De Anza Trail, and across from the original birthplace of Chuk Shon (Tucson in the Tohono O'odham language). This land has been inhabited and cultivated for more than four-thousand years, and remains with a rural environment of horse/farm animals, wildlife corridor, and gardening. Families have lived in the same area for up to six generations, with stories of the flowing river and the continuation of horseback riding along the river banks much as Padre Kino did centuries ago.

Rancho Hermoso is easily reached off the I-10 Freeway Frontage Rd. There is plentiful free onsite parking inside the fenced property. The Santa Cruz River Loop provides pedestrian or bike access to nearby Mercado San Augustin and trolley & bus stops, as well as major cross streets and connecting to Rillito, Pantano & other river park pathways.

Matt was very detailed, very easy to communicate with, very friendly and helpful. He provided information about everything we would need and was always within touch to make sure we could contact him with questions. Provided a great guest book with written instructions for everything.

Matt has created a lovely home for any getaway to Tucson! The house is well equipped with things for children (cribs, etc.) and animals (leash attachment, bowls, beds, etc.). I was here for business travel and wish I could enjoy more of the house's amenities. I am sure any family would like it here. However, the house is not close to anything notable (which I am sure you all know by looking at the map). Plan on renting a car if you are flying in because the cost of Uber/Lyft will add up. Also, the house is in a bit of a sketchy neighborhood. I did not have any issues with my safety but I did imagine more of a suburban atmosphere. Matt has many cameras and a good security system in place if that makes you feel more safe. Again, I don't think there are any issues with the neighborhood.

We loved our stay in Tucson! Matt’s place was perfect for our group of friends, in for a wedding. We couldn’t believe how many people we fit in there! The rollaway beds were super easy to use and made it so that nobody had to sleep on the couch! We were in walking distance to the free tram and right on the bike path, which made it super easy to get everywhere we needed to go. There were plenty of towels, dishes, and other amenities for a large group - totally perfect!!

The home is spacious and comfortable and extremely well stocked. Matt was very responsive and polite. We wouldn’t hesitate to rent the house itself, again. Unfortunately, we didn’t feel comfortable despite the security system, as the neighborhood was a bit too sketchy for us, so we cancelled early. Matt was able to rebook the home, which allowed us to receive a partial refund. We may just be prudes.

Response:Our pocket neighborhood in downtown Tucson is definitely working class, and historic. I also find that folks not familiar with Tucson can be surprised by the look and feel of neighborhoods, which are not like elsewhere at all. That said, we've never had any issues at all in the time we've lived or hosted here, and many many guests have greatly appreciated the privacy, space, and location that we describe in our listing. Of course we won't be for everybody, and in those cases we do our best to work together with our guest for a solution.

Good value, neighbor is close to gem shows, not sure I'd stay here other than that. The neighborhood is a little sketchy but if you need a bigger place close to convention center for multiple people it was close. Also clean and well stocked. Layout is a little odd. Mostly I'd say good value for the space/proximity. Host was attentive but we did not need much.

Policies and Rules

Check In: 4PM - Flexible
You will use the two codes we give you to enter the gated drive and enter the house. These will be sent the morning of your arrival.

The gate is manual and has a combination lock on it. The gate must be manually opened and it needs to be latched when it is in both the open and the closed position. When the gate is in the open position there is a pole with a chain and a carabiner on it and then there’s a little hook on the gate to latch the carabiner. When it’s in the closed position there’s a bolt that secures the gate and it has a hole in it that the combination lock goes through.

It is very important to latch it in both the open and the closed position to make sure that the gate does not swing. The electronic keypads are no longer functional.

Park to the left of the concrete pad and head directly in front to the porch and first door to use the code for entry, and to disable the alarm system at the kitchen counter.

You may then open the sliding doors to the great room and master bedroom for easy load in.

The same Door Code will also work at the front door and laundry room entrance.

The same Gate Code will also work at a gate on the north side of property for quick access to the Loop (biking/walking trail) and Mercado.
