Beyond the lights of the Tucson, close enough to the mountains that there is nothing between them and you, but far enough for you to grasp the full splendor of shadowy folds and dancing color changes, rests a picturesque bed and breakfast resort. Located just north of Tucson, Arizona in the shadow of the Santa Catalina Mountains is The Cactus Quail, a unique Tucson, Arizona lodging resort that offers visitors a singular experience. It begins with the view. From the moment you arrive, you will be awed by a breathtaking expanse. Thousands of acres of state and national forest land stretch from the property's edge across lush desert foothills to the peaks of the Santa Catalinas. Wildlife abounds, rewarding the watchful with glimpses of coyotes, javelina, deer, bobcats, redtail hawks, rabbits and, of course, many quail. Here, beneath a canopy of cottonwoods, surrounded by thickets of mesquites, fragrant acacias and an array of native cacti, a comfortable and elegant ranch home bed and breakfast quiet retreat welcomes you.
