Not normally one to leave a review, but this is a special place. I’ve been staying at B&Bs at every national park I visit (trying to hit them all) and this one was particularly memorable. Genuinely if I could go back anywhere, this is the place, I want to bring everyone I know, so they can also see what a special place this is! The owners are so incredible and cute. Wyan makes the most incredible Mexican/Indonesian fusion breakfast. The place is so beautiful, the sunset against the mountains in the back is breathtaking. It’s also located right in the national park, so you can explore literally right out the back door!
Friendly inn keepers. Unique property that back right up to Saguaro National Park. Good hot breakfast. Loads of local intelligence from a lifelong Tucson native. Access in a small sedan maybe be dicey as the road back is primitive for about 3/4 of a mile. I nearly high centered my rental mini van my first drive up the lane but compensated in following trips with wheel placement. Saw 2 wild javalina and a bunch of different birds including a neat quail. Comfortable bed, clean rooms, amazing night sky in the middle of the desert, amazing sunset on the red rocks. Not a Marriott but you knew that up front.
Such a wonderful little surprise...RIGHT at the edge of the park, you get a little Arizona/Indonesia gem. The owners are lovely and helpful. All kinds of critters come to visit the patio.
What a Beautiful hidden gem Tucson has, it's off the beaten path, Beautiful scenery most friendly owners. Loved Mike's stories and Wayans friendly smile, she always had a great breakfast/coffee waiting for you. If your looking for a place to see wildlife, hike or take pictures this is perfect . Thank you so much for making us feel like a part of the family. Julie and Victor (we will be back)
I stayed at the Crickethead Inn for a night on my way through Saguaro on a road trip in February of 2017. This place is honestly amazing - it's practically in the park and so serene. Gorgeous cacti all around and amazing stars at night. The room was beautiful and immaculate and Mike and Wayan were wonderful hosts - breakfast was delicious. I wish I could have stayed longer!
