Perfect for our Family
The house, the casitas and the grounds worked super well for my family group of 16. We loved Tucson and we loved the hosts. We had so much space, and the bonfire on our last night was amazing. Our host bought us smore ingredients, which made our last night even more special.

Great Property
This was our 2nd year staying here and it was as excellent as we expected. Kristen, the host, was great and made sure we had everything we needed. Several of us used the gym every morning and all of us enjoyed the firepit at the house at night. Beds were very comfortable as well. If you are going to Tucson, you need to book this property

Perfect for family reunion
We had the privilege of staying at Woodland Ranch over Labor Day weekend. Everything about our stay was perfection. The property itself is a magnificent oasis in the desert. Lush grounds, resort-like swimming and entertaining area, individual Casitas with beautiful decor, a workout room, and the most attentive and engaging hosts we have ever met.

Best property on VRBO
Everything about our stay was wonderful, the property is absolutely beautiful! Our large family stayed for my dad’s 70th birthday and the accommodations were great. Everyone had their own rooms and then we gathered each day at the main house or pool. The pool area is soo beautiful, we spent most of our time there. Kristan and her husband were great hosts, they went above and beyond! We hope to be back next year for my mom’s 70th birthday!

Great Stay in Tucson
Our group of 14 friends and work associates really enjoyed our stay. It was nice having private rooms for everyone, the pool area was a fantastic gathering place with ample room for everyone. The owner was very responsive from time of booking through to the end of our stay, and while on site they checked in from time to time to see if we needed anything. Everything about our stay was very enjoyable.

Perfect Property For Large Groups
We had a wonderful stay at this property! We were a group of 12 professionals in town for a trade show. We found this property to be the perfect space for meals together but private spaces to rest. The pool area is amazing and the property is beautiful. The host is very responsive and generous in their communication and help! We will be back!

WOW
I really don't know what to say! This property is phenomenal! We have never stayed in anything like it. The property is gorgeous and so much fun for families. It was like we rented a whole resort. Kristen was amazing, so responsive and everything we could have needed was there. She has thought of everything. Location is great. Grocery store is so close as well as restaurants and you are at the base of Mount Lemmon which is a lot of fun to visit. We will be back for sure!

Great place to stay!
Everything about this place was great…could not have been better. Kristen was a wonderful host, and responded very quickly to any needs we had. We had a party at the pool on one of our nights there, Kristen and team had the pool area set up for our party, it was beautiful and everyone had an amazing time. If you need a VRBO to house a lot of people, there is not a better place in Tucson! Thanks a million Kristen!

Excellent Property
Had a group of guys in town for a golf vacation. This property was perfect for our stay: i) everyone had a private bedroom and bath (beds were super comfortable), ii) main house was perfect gathering place for breakfast and dinner each night, iii) on-site fitness facility, iv) pool area was fantastic, v) really enjoyed the fire pits on the property for reliving the day's golf activities (Kristen, the host, provided ample firewood and extra seating for us).
Highly recommend this property. We hope to use it again on our next golf trip to Tucson,

Class reunion
this is a great property! the owner/hostess was onsite and she was incredibly responsive. The pool area is fantastic, the big house is very nice and the casitas, while rustic, afford privacy and the basics needed, e.g. towels, coffee maker, mini fridge, etc.
This is an ideal spot for a family reunion, small corporate retreats and similar events. Highly recommended!
The neighborhood is also good for walks, lots of small ranches nearby.

Peaceful
We were there for our daughter’s wedding at Tanque Verde,(which is only about 15 minutes away) Not only is this ranch beautiful, it’s serene, and so peaceful. The calm we needed while stressing out about a wedding. It was not warm enough to use the pool, but we were able to catch some sun sitting around the pool area. Everyone enjoyed looking at the horse barn and the cows.
Kristen and her husband went out of their way to make sure our family was more than accommodated while we were there. We can not thank them enough for making our Tucson experience the best!

Breathtaking
This place was beyond amazing. The pictures do no justice for how the property looks in person. We had our wedding reception here and the pool area had more than enough room to accommodate all 20 people and made for beautiful photos. Kristin was more than helpful and made us feel right at home. The horses and cows were just a short walk away and they were perfect for the kiddos to feed. Words can’t express how amazing the property was, would give this place 1000 stars if we could.

Perfect place for a family reunion.
Kristen and Chris were both very friendly, helpful, and kind! Their property is a magical and more than you could ever imagine. We saw lots of wildlife (some we would rather have not seen lol) and enjoyed the beautiful landscape. The pool is more spectacular then we had anticipated. The water stayed cool all week long and there was more than enough room for all 25 of us to enjoy it at the same time. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home with us!

Amazing property and hosts
The ranch is beautiful and perfect for large or small groups. Kristen accomodated our work team retreat and went above and beyond, including receiving deliveries before we arrived, early check-ins, even s'more sticks and firewood! All the rooms are clean, comfortable, have fridges with drinks, and the bunk room is perfect for kids. The house is beautiful and roomy with so many places to conduct separate meetings or have space to just retreat to by yourself. The horses and other wildlife are the icing on the cake. The location is also very near a grocery store and restaurants. Overall a 5-star stay! Thank you, Kristen and family!
