beauty and bird song. This romantic hacienda estate sits on five acres
of botanical garden ambiance at the gateway to Mt. Lemmon. It is

there is a hiking trail on the property. It is 3 miles to the Bear
Canyon trailhead leading to Sabino Canyon with many trails and 4 miles
to trails in Saguaro National Park East. About an hours drive away are
Madera Canyon and the San Pedro Riparian Area, both world-renown
birding destinations. There is a pool for seasonal swimming.
