Located on Continental Divide at 7K ft. in mountain hamlet of Pinos Altos and 7 miles from Silver City, the newly constructed and fully furnished guest house offers an elegant passive-solar getaway on the edge of the Gila National Forest. Trails lead from guesthouse into the forest, peaks, and canyons of the Pinos Altos Range.

    This was by far, one of the most special places we have stayed. Such a natural and peaceful setting with all the comforts for a perfect stay. So quiet and beautiful. The hosts are so kind and welcoming and the casita was well equipped with anything you could need. The bed was SO comfortable too! We are grateful to have had the opportunity to stay here and we will definitely be back!

    Birders! Pack your bags! This rental is hosted by two very kind hosts, Tom and Deb. They were incredibly kind, supportive, informative, and helpful during my stay. When I got lost, Deb pointed me in the right direction. When I was unsure of where to go birding, Tom was a font of knowledge and insider advice; his suggestion of Little Cherry Creek Rd. Trail was [chef's kiss]. And, of course, as you can see from the photos, the casita is beautiful! It is a casita, an addition to the home where Tom and Deb live, but it is set up to be very independent from their home, and the silence nearly knocked me off my feet. And don't even get me started on the stars I could see from my bed's pillow every night. When I found out there were trails that lead directly from my front door, I couldn't believe it. This casita IS the trailhead! I could just wake up and go! Tom and Deb already marked trails with cairns, so this is just supplemental. My eBird trip report is [redacted but publicly available as are my map and iNaturalist observations]. The Casita is also within 20 minutes of EVERYTHING. I needed only a few sips of gas the entire 2 weeks. The Casita is a BIRDING DESTINATION. By the way, I also made over 400 iNaturalist observations, and this was in *winter*. Can you imagine visiting during the lush spring/summer? In fact, go ahead and book for spring or summer. I don't want to have to fight you people for a spot next winter!

    Beautiful area. They did an excellent job on building the Casita. The kitchen was furnished with everything we needed. The bed was comfortable with nice linens. Lots of thought was put into Casita. We will definitely book our stay here when in the area.

    The hosts, communications, and property were all great. The tiny village of Pinos Altos is about 7.5 miles from Silver City, and about 1000 ft. higher in elevation, which makes it very pleasant. The only ding I can give is that the property amenities list air conditioning and TV with cable/satellite channels, neither of which are accurate. There is only a small portable evaporative cooler, and only some streaming services available on the TV, many of which can't be viewed without a paid subscription. I was expecting real AC and real cable/satellite channels, but didn't get them.
