Just down the street is a branch of Tucson's favorite brewery. Head here for some beers, comfortable atmosphere, and fun (like cornhole or board games). They serve up food from Boca Tacos - an award-winning, local, woman-owned restaurant on 4th Avenue.

We especially love this place for breakfast/brunch but they also have a few lunch options and dinner hours on the weekends. The gift shop is unique and fun! This is also walkable from Sonoran Guest Cottage.

Visiting your college students? Go play some games (table tennis, cornhole, a photobooth, and more) and share some apps. While this is not our favorite for meals, it's a great place to socialize with generous portions of familiar appetizers.

A newer highlight to our neighborhood food scene, Mojo's has a great vibe, friendly service, and authentic Cuban food and rum concoctions. We love their takeout but eating in is a really great experience.

Set your GPS for "Summerhaven" which is a little ski town at the top of the mountain. 25 minutes from Sonoran Guest Cottage to the base of the mountain, it's a 45-minute or so drive to the peak through several biomes with a temperature drop of 30 degrees. There are hiking trailheads off the road all the way up so stop off when the temperature or scenery suits. This is a must-see! The cookie cabin and gift shop next door are fun stops at the top. The general store has homemade fudge and Mount Lemmon souvenirs.

Approach the park via Gates Pass - breathtaking views with lots of pull-outs for taking in the scenery. Hiking trails at SNP are exposed to the hot sun so heading out early is best or on the few "cool" days of winter. This is quintessential cactus forest.

Great for low-key desert hiking - Nothing too strenuous here but plenty of desert beauty. This is a favorite for mountain bikers but always cordial when sharing the trails.
