Sami Has a House for Rent

Just a mile off of I-10, and a great base to explore the Sky Island Region (southeast Arizona), this quiet room has views of an old west movie set! The house is 10 minutes from restaurants and stores in Benson, and 40 minutes from the many restaurants and attractions in Tucson. I have two dogs and two cats, so well-behaved pets are welcome. You can even say hi to Wrangler, Levi, and Calvin, my horse, burro, and mule! Away from the city lights, so the stars are amazing! The space: You should be ok with animals. Your well-behaved pet is welcome with approval. I also have a "variety pack" of equines, which you are welcome to look at and talk to, but please don't touch or feed them. The kitchen is fully stocked and there is space in the refrigerator and freezer for any food you might bring. There is medium-roast coffee, half and half, and a small coffee maker. You are also welcome to hang out in the living room. There is a lovely front porch with views of the mountains to sit on and have your morning coffee. If you are traveling with a dog, I have a small yard that you can let them out in while you are at the house. The space is also safe for off-leash if your dog is well-trained. You'll be in a semi-rural area, so it's calm and quiet. You can see eight mountain ranges, and over 30 miles away. It's about half a mile from the railroad, so you can hear the trains, though they aren't bothersome to most. I've hiked and backpacked all over the Sky Islands, and am happy to help you plan your trip. About me: I'm a friendly person who enjoys talking with new people, but also needs her alone time. I love animals, nature, and chocolate. I work as a field biologist for Pima County (in Tucson), so I often get to hike and explore for work! Guest access: I'm a bit over a mile on a paved road off the interstate, then ~1/4 mi on good dirt road to the house. Lots of space for parking on gravel/dirt area. I also have space to park a trailer or uhaul. Other things to note: I'm vaccinated for covid. Since we'll be sharing some spaces, I ask that you are, too. if you'd like to stay for 2 weeks or more, but a few of the dates are blocked, message me. I may be out of town, but able to accommodate longer stays. While I am within commuting distance of Tucson, it is still a 40 min drive to downtown, so if you really want to be in town, you may want to look elsewhere. There is a Dollar General for quick errands a mile away, and a full grocery store and other shops 10 min down the freeway.
