Private Sanctuary with Adobe Casita

We're so confident that you'll be enchanted by the magic of the Moonrise Casita that we guarantee your satisfaction in writing within the rental agreement. Possessing the rustic qualities of the classic Tucson adobe style, the massive 16 inch thick walls of the Moonrise Casita were forged from the earth with adobe blocks made on site. Moonrise appears as though it's always been there having grown out of the ground merging seamlessly with the surrounding habitat even though construction was completed in Dec 2011. Adobe construction including passive solar design moderate temperatures in ways unmatched by other building materials providing an unsurpassed level of comfort. If you have never slept in an adobe home it may be your best night's sleep yet. The natural materials of Moonrise were chosen to effect a calming harmony that will help relax you into a deep slumber at night as the coyotes serenade you to sleep. Imagine waking fully restored with an energy reminiscent of your childhood. The family friendly Moonrise Casita comfortably sleeps 4 in a queen size bed in the main bedroom. The 2nd bedroom can be configured with either a king, 2 twins, or single bed depending upon your needs. Sheltered inside a cactus studded canyon strewn with giant boulders, Moonrise is the perfect peaceful retreat possessing a commanding view of Tucson. With just under 4 acres to roam, the romance of the location will enchant couples. There is a strong sense of history to the canyon enclosing the casita. Moonrise was built on a long since forgotten mining road leading to abandoned gold mines hidden in the surrounding canyon conjuring images of the old west. You can easily imagine Apache scouts atop the stone towers guarding the entrance to their stronghold. Moonrise overlooks the San Xavier Mission, the White Dove of the Desert, completed in 1792 and widely regarded as Tucson's most sacred place.

Or skip the zoo and curl up with a good book in the window seat if you can tear your eyes away from the dramatic scenery and the varied wildlife passing by. You'll understand why this adobe casita came to be called Moonrise while wildlife viewing at twilight when the javelina families troop home past the window to their beds high up on a hill above the casita as the moon rises between the canyon walls. Upon waking from a deep sleep you can gaze up from bed at the hawk's nest in a craggy cliff face perhaps catching a glimpse of the Hawks caring for their young. If you're extremely lucky you might just see the most elusive of all, the tiny ring tail cat.
