GUEST COMMENTS

We are always so thrilled, delighted and thankful when our Guests take the time to leave a comment especially as we do NOT solicit them. We hope it won't take too long before we'll have a collection of them to rival our original VRBO, Garcia House, which grew so large we had to start a second page!

Thank you so much Gary and Laurie!!! It was a pleasure to meet you both and we do sincerely hope our paths will cross again! F&C

Gary and Laurie were kind enough to take the time and write a comment in our Guest Book too! Including a copy of the page along with a transcript to make it easier to read:

Glenn House -- What a wonderful home away from home! Centrally located, incredibly well stocked awith every conceivable need (including edible goodies!), beautifully decorated with harmonious theme and colors, this abode really felt like a home not just a place to hang one's hat. Fran + Charlie (who live but a few blocks away) are attentive hosts who make suggested activities atuned to their guests needs + wants, also supply copious written material i.e. brochures highlighting local + regional sites and delights.

We are seasoned travelers of more than 50 years and decare that Glenn House was one of, if not the most, comfortable lodging we had during our decades on the road. Gary N---

Gary has said what I, too, feel about Glenn House and our wonderful hosts. Thank you for providing such a homey, serene place for us. Laurie N---

Our thanks go out to Jack and Linda too for choosing to stay with us and being so generous to write such a lovely comment! The Edible Baja Arizona book you left for future Guests I'm very certain will be HUGELY appreciated by those to come in the future! Thank You!!! We appreciate your suggestion for some reflective tape by the carport -- it is now on our shopping list! Thanks so much again!!

Thanks for providing a fine little home away from home. Linda and I found the furnishings comfortable, well organized and easy to use. The location is convenient to most of the attractions that we wanted to see -- Parks, Downtown and the U of A. We live out in rural New Hampshire, so the activity on the street took some adjustment.

We tried out the grill, but had most of our dinners out. Tucson has so many choices for food. We left a copy of Edible Baja Arizona to add to your materials on attractions.

It was a hot week setting records for March. Your A/C kept us comfortable throughout.

One suggestion, for those of us with poor night vision -- adding some reflective tape on the car port pillars would help. Many thanks, Jack and Linda G-----

It was FABULOUS to see Jackie and Terry again! We first met Jackie and Terry when they came and stayed at our other vacation rental but this time instead of there, they stayed in our new one. Jackie even spent her birthday here! Thanks so much!! Come back SOON!

And a BIG Thank You goes out to Barbara and William who hail from the great state of Texas for staying with us while they attended a very special family reunion here in Tucson. We so enjoyed meeting you both and hope our paths will cross again! Go Longhorns!

It was wonderful to host Joy and John of Grand Junction, Colorado and their three buddies! Circumstances made it so t took a while to finally met but eventually we did! Joy was kind enough to leave a note at departure and I found a lovely comment in our book! Thank you so much J, J, R, D & C!!! I do hope we'll meet again!

Kim D from California came to us while starting and new job here and looking for permanent digs. She stayed at both our VR's in October, November and into December! She was a most wonderful Guest! So glad she found a house to purchase but so sorry to say bye bye!

Gayle and Larry spent three months with us visiting a son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter. Like Kim above, they wound up purchasing a home here in Tucson! Gayle and Larry were exceptional Guests and we look forward to seeing them again when they've moved their belongings here. Thank you G&L and Pete the dog too!!

Anne and Bob from coooooold Minnesota came to Tucson to visit family and friends and spent their wedding anniversary with us. It was a sincere pleasure to meet them both and we are hoping we'll be seeing them again down the road. Next anniversary maybe??? :-)

A.M. & R.D of California had to cut their stay with us short due to a family emergency but still wrote a few lovely words:

April 5, 2016 " . . . The house was amazing. We loved staying in it and all the effort and detail you put into it . . . "

"

It was WONDERFUL to welcome Joy and John for a return visit! It's such a shame that we won't be hosting any further visits to Tucson but that's because they purchased a home here!

I loved to hear how their furry buddies settled right in feeling like they knew the place.. They did! :-)

Thanks so much Joy and John! Looking forward to that Housewarming party!

Joy and John's remarks submitted to VRBO:

Tara and Sydney of North Carolina spent three months with us while they worked at Tucson Medical Center as traveling nurses. We sure enjoyed having them and wish them much success and adventure while they carry on traveling throughout the country.

Best wishes and thank you ladies!

C & A are our most frequent Guests coming and going from Tucson and staying at Glenn House or our other VR, Garcia House, whenever they can. We'll so thrilled they keep coming back!

We don't accept gratuities but this orchid from our Guests H & J was a super surprise! H & J, their two boys and dog were making the move here to Tucson and stayed at Glenn House while all the finalities of their house closing got taken care of.

What a pleasure it was to host Susan and her two most friendly dogs for a seven-week stay with us! I 'm so glad they chose to stay with us and I do hope our paths will cross again sometime in the future! Come back soon, Susan!!

Jan & Bruce gave us this lovely, expandable bamboo trivet!

We were lucky enough to have Jan and Bruce come stay with us at both Garcia House and Glenn House! Jan and Bruce came with their gorgeous goldendoodle, Cooper, and and they couldn't have been nicer Guests -- they even gave us a present! I don't know quite how Jan knew that I actually needed a trivet but I did. Not any more! We know our paths will cross in the future and we look very forward to seeing them again! Thank you so very much!

For easier reading (from Inside Card:) We sure hit the jackpot when I found you on the internet. We couldn't have found better hosts - Will be hard to find another rental like Garcia/Glenn Houses. Thank you for making our stay in Tucson so enjoyable. You guys are way too generous and gracious. Jan, Bruce & Cooper

For easier reading ( from Yellow Notepaper): Fran & Charlie Thank you for helping make our stay in Tucson so enjoyable. Glenn House became our home away from home. You guys are such wonderful hosts. Come visit us way up North! Will miss you, Jan & Bruce
P.S. Loved all your treats -- too much Thanks

I'm glad we made for a comfy "home away from home" for Adrienne and Brandi who were with us for thirteen weeks. We only managed to meet them few brief times as they were busy enjoying Tucson or working at TMC for their time here. We do wish them both well in their future endeavors and travels and would welcome one, either or both back if they ever chose to spend time in Tucson again. Thank you so much ladies! Please give Mila a biscuit from us!

We were delighted Sharon and Mike found Glenn House and chose to come stay with us for their Winter getaway this year! Remmie, Odie and Joy were some super happy doggies too not having to deal with all the snow and cold! We do hope and believe they enjoyed their stay in Tucson and their note reflects that mentioning how much there is to do. They were wonderful guests and have also become personal friends and look forward to their return in 2020!

Dear Fran & Charlie,

Thank you for our wonderful stay at the Glenn House. We could not be happier. The comfort level, ease of accessibility to walking trails and restaurants all were exactly what we were hoping for. Your thoughtful details were noticed and appreciated - from TV choices to BBQ grill, personal and cleaning supplies, safety lights and more. We loved your emails which included links to Tucson activities! You are so right about the wide & multiple choices of entertainment Tucson offers.

We look forward to seeing you next January -

Sharon & Mike
Odie, Remmie & Joy thank you too!

We're so glad we could play a part in making this a happy Christmas for Jenn, Mikey and Gunner too!

We'd look forward to seeing them every Xmas!!!

We are so lucky -- We consistently get the very best Guests!!!

It was Cosima, Criag and Roxy's first time with us and we couldn't accommodate the entire duration of their stay in Tucson due to previous booking but they gave us a shot anyway and we're so glad they did! It was a pleasure meeting them and being their hosts during the first part of their Tucson winter visit. They also left a lovely gift for me after their departure. Plans are to see them again and I do hope that will happen!

I say it time and time again - We get the VERY BEST GUESTS!! Sharon and Mike returned to us to escape their Wisconsin winter and wound up being here as the Coronavirus pandemic became widespread. Even though so many of their plans and events were canceled they still were so gracious and chose to remain on in Glenn House isolating in the warmth of Tucson. They will never forgot us nor we them! We're hoping things will have returned enough to normal next year that they'll come back again and be able to enjoy the many attractions and restaurants, etc. Tucson normally has to offer. It was wonderful to find this note and there was a large jar of Sanders' Sea Salt Caramels for us too! Yum! Yum! Thank you Sharon and Mike!! See you next year!!!

We were so happy to learn that Cynthia picked up another contract in Tucson and contacted us about staying with us again!

Our studio apartment that she stayed in previously was not available but our single-family home was and she took it and we couldn't have been happier.

If Cynthia ever returns to Tucson for another travel nurse gig, we'd welcome her with open arms at either rental!

Come on back anytime, Cynthia!!!
