Large unique house
The property was very large, which was a plus but there were a lot of steps and ledges which made accessibility an issue for those with mobility issues. We only stayed 2 nights and my kids were missing the wifi and while there was 1 smart TV, it wouldn't load anything. Overall the bed rooms were all comfortable and the kids liked exploring the house.

Family Reunion
We had 15 adults staying on the property, with the owner allowing two trailers to be parked with electricity which worked out great. Spacious house that was well stocked with all that was needed for a great time. The host lives next door and she was very helpful in promptly working out a few issues that came up. We had great access to the many sites in the Tuscon area to visit. We had a wonderful reunion with some great memories from our stay in the middle of the desert!

Huge house w/ personality & some unusual features
Very large house, lovely rural property w/ abundant wild life, horses, & desert plants. Living rm enormous, lots of seating. Dining rm very large. Kitchen large, set up for catering. Huge shaded patio in front & lg upstairs deck in back. Inside, several changes of floor level, many about 2”, but kitchen is two full steps down. Locking house would not be easy, and we were not given a key. Not a prob for us w/ rural location & owner living on property. At tail end of winter, pool did not appear swim ready. Would have improved our stay: brighter lighting, esp in kitchen, space for storing our own items (shelves in kitchen, surfaces in bdrms). 7 bedrooms are listed: Bdrm 1, ensuite bathrm: door to hall & door to back yd through bathrm. Bdrm 2, ensuite bathrm: door to dining rm & door to back yd. Bdrm 3 opens onto upper kitchen. Bdrm 4, ensuite bathrm: door to hall & door to front patio. Route from bed to hall goes through barrier-free shower area. Bath/hall door blocks hall if left open. (See bdrm 6 for more.) Bdrm 5, door to hall & door to front patio, sink & communicating door to bdrm 4 can be closed off. (See bdrm 6.) Bdrm 6, a loft over part of bdrm 4/bath. Access is via ladder (not quite vertical). Loft is completely open to the bdrm below, also somewhat open to kitchen. Egress from loft is via bdrm 4. Door opening to bdrm 5 blocked by ladder. Bdrm 7 has sink, access is via a set of exterior stairs. “Powder rm” (toilet/sink) in addition to the 3 ensuite bathrms.

Siblings get away
5 brothers and sisters, our spouses & sister-in-law gathering. We are all in our 60, 70 & 80’s. This house is quite a unique home. We all had bedrooms & beds. The configuration was sometimes interesting. And, because of being repeatedly being built on to, we had to negotiate various levels with 2” steps, regular 1 or 2 steps involved. As we had two members of our party that have severe vision issues these changes in the floor were a big issue. BUT we noted and “stepped up” to the challenge. It was a beautiful setting and the house allowed us to be together and get closer as a family. Siblings get away was a success!

Tucson Family Christmas
We’ve used VRBO for years..large, medium &small, domestic ∫ernational. This is by far the most unique. It is Nancy’s (host/owner) home, so by no means a sterile VRBO. She has a separate space when there are guests. She was most generous with the use of everything. The desert setting is amazing.The property seemed so isolated yet we were near urban conveniences (grocery store, restaurants etc). A near perfect spot for our family Christmas. Decor is a bit on the rustic/shabby chic side. Living/common space was fabulous. Plenty of room for craft area for the kids, game table, tv, etc. Kitchen is well equipped..in fact I’ve never seen so many pots&pans in one kitchen. FYI: Technically there are 7 sleeping areas. Configuration of bunkhouse area is a challenge. The loft is up a steep ladder, which is located in the middle of one bedroom & requires you to go thru that BR to access a bathrm or the rest of the house. The bathrm is an open space with toilet/sink separated by a curtain & a handheld wand shower so entire bathrm floor gets wet. The other 2 bathrms are ensuite,so you must enter a guest’s BR to use them. There is also a half bath & she opened her private bathrm. From the 7th sleeping area you go outside & down steps to a bathrm & rest of the house. The 8 &11y/o loved that space. Spacious patio with great views & a charcoal grill. Nancy was very accommodating and helpful..let me bring food a day early and found a lost kindle. Thank you for sharing your home.

Wonderful Time!
We had a great time celebrating my mom's 90th birthday with family and friends. Nancy was a delight to work with. The house was great for the Thanksgiving dinner and the birthday party. The local friends could not believe we found such a great place to celebrate. The kitchen was extremely well stocked with EVERYTHING we needed for serving and meals in between the parties. We had our own refrigerator to store all of our food for the week. A great time was had by all.

Great place to stay!
Great property, included all the amenities you can think of. It was just a mile from where our horses stayed and 2 miles from our venue. We had 5 families that totaled 11 people. Inquire about the room config. The three beds in the bunk house are all open together with one bathroom. We enjoyed a dinner all together on night out on the patio that we made in the fabulous kitchen. The owner is wonderful and took great care of us. Greatly enjoyed a wood burning fire in the fireplace each night we were there! One of my favorite things!

Not what was advertised
If you are looking for an isolated house that is old without modern conveniences, this is your place. The house is eclectic and there is stuff everywhere. It left us all feeling not clean. Many of the plugs don't work, there are minimal locks to outside doors and that also feels unsafe. There were 7 of us and we didn't even stay there the 2nd night.

Awesome Stay at the Spectacular Desert Villa
Our family had an exceptional 4-day stay at the Spectacular Desert Villa, also known as Nancy's Wild Purple Ranch & Retreat. Our party of 14 thoroughly enjoyed the numerous amenities offered by the Ranch and had the pleasure of celebrating our mother's 90th birthday with additional extended family members and friends who attended the festivities. The Ranch proved to be an ideal venue for hosting a family gathering, boasting a charming rustic ranch house with a modernized kitchen and a spacious porch that allowed us to relish the picturesque surroundings. Nancy, our gracious host, made our stay feel like a reunion with a dear old friend. Without hesitation, we highly recommend this location for anyone seeking a remarkable setting for a large family gathering.

53rd College reunion
Seven 74 year old women from around the country gathered at this spacious, rambling villa filled with antiques and art and cozy nooks to gather in as well as multiple gathering spots on a huge porch and around a pool. The grounds were lush desert filled with budding cactus and birds and lots of walking paths. It is a perfect venue for a reunion. We didn't use the upstairs bedrooms due to concerns about climbing down stairs at night to use a bathroom (which happens at our ages!) but there were 2 rooms with King beds that were fine to share. There is a huge modern kitchen. We all enjoyed the property immensely and would all return!

Family & friends gathering for a landmark birthday
Wild Purple Ranch is quirky, magical, and was perfect for our family & friends gathering. We swam, cooked, hiked the property & the nearby parks, and visited other sites (downtown Tucson, the Desert Museum, & the the botanical garden) for 10 glorious days. This is NOT a luxury spa; it is a labyrinth of a house with beds in lofts and up ladders, 2 master suites, and 4 bathrooms for 7 bedrooms. You want to stay here with people you can get along with. It is also NOT a staged showpiece: sometimes a light suddenly goes out or a chair tilts funny. However, the artifacts and decor made it seem like we were living in a fantasy. We loved it. Every day was a surprise, and every day was a joy.

Nancy was such a wonderful host, so friendly and helpful, and she even cut up apples and let us feed and pet her horses! The property itself is magical, my family and I stayed for a wedding nearby. We loved hiking through the gardens with different themes, and the house is great for a big group. We were all able to have our own spaces and spaces large enough for us to hang out together. Great host, great house, and centrally located to a number of things. You feel like you’re in a nature preserve but you’re only 5 minutes away from restaurants banks, stores and 15 min from all Tucson has to offer. My family and I had such a great time, my sister said on her last day “I’m going to miss this view”, and I couldn’t agree more.

Beautiful Outdoor Space and Lovely Location
The ranch is a beautiful, eclectic place. Outdoor space is perfect for any size group, as is the dining room. Owner is very friendly. Sleeping accommodations are not exactly as represented, twin beds were nothing more than toe-to-toe pads on a wooden bench. Out of 3 bathrooms and a powder room, 2 bathrooms were fully functional, 1 had a trickle of hot water, and the powder room toilet had to be filled manually.
