A DESERT RETREAT ALONG THE RILLITO

Daily life opens into more here.

At The Hacienda at the River, daily life extends beyond your residence into courtyards, gardens, dining spaces, programs, partnerships, and outdoor experiences that make the most of the Catalina Foothills setting.

Inspired by Tucson’s Spanish Revival style and the ranching traditions of independence, neighborliness, and discovery, this is a community where daily life opens into shared meals, garden paths, classes, outdoor spaces, and time along the Rillito.

Lifestyle Options

Independent Living
