This great little guest house was truly perfect! Quiet, beautifully peaceful, lots of backyard birds to watch and enjoy. The location was ideal for our day trips to all the southern Arizona hiking and historical sites, and quite a bonus to be able to arrive home at the end of the day and enjoy a quiet, private meal. Hosts were so kind and not intrusive in the least. We hope to stay here again!
We had a wonderful time staying here. The listing was exactly what it said it was and was and in the perfect spot to explore the surrounding area. Great place to unplug and unwind.
The guest house was very clean, decor is well suited to the surroundings. Owner's are very friendly and willing to do whatever they can to give you a wonderful time.
Very quiet, clean and enjoyable! The stay was supposed to be a side trip for us, turned out to be the highlight
Had a wedding in the area and it was a great break from the festivities. Peaceful and relaxing. Great for a couple looking to relax after a day out in nature. Hosts very welcoming.
Loved this little place. Nice property and great house. Peaceful stay. Would definitely stay again.
Nice out of the way place. Very quiet. The bed was very comfortable for me!
I had a wonderful time staying here. Caroline made me feel right at home. The place was horse themed and just beautiful. Beautiful area, peacefull and just what I needed. I enjoyed sitting out on the back porch watching the wild life come in and eat and drink. I will definitely recommend this home and will be back!
Enjoyed the friendliness of the host and the natural beauty and wildlife. Great place to unwind and disconnect to explore Arizona.
We had a wonderful time here. The house was spotless clean and I loved the decor. The backyard is large and fenced in, our dog Dewey loved it. We also counted twenty one different kinds of birds on the property. Lots of privacy but if you do need something Caroline and Charlie are right there for you, they are very helpful and so nice. We highly recommend this rental.
We didn’t make good use of the cottage; mostly spent days sightseeing & visiting relatives, Didn’t think I’d ever miss TV but found evenings to be long, Missed not having my horses for something to do! Cabin very clean; bed comfortable & loved the horse theme & pictures;,
Terrific location—easy access to Kartchner Caverns, Chiricahua National Monument, Bisbee, Tombstone and Patagonia Nature Preserve. Truly enjoyed our weeklong stay. Would certainly return if in this area again. Caroline and Charlie were excellent hosts.
This was a great little place that has all the amenities. You can see it was recently remodeled and everything is clean and in good shape. The yard is huge and completely fenced in with a nice shaded porch area. The hosts were very welcoming and I loved the stories of the old mining days of Arizona. I think the best aspect of this place is it's central location to explore all of southeast Arizona. If you like hiking and exploring there are many different wilderness areas within an hour drive. To me it's the quintessential wild west Arizona that you see in movies and read about in history books.
We had such a great stay at Caroline's place! It was an absolutely perfect retreat and spot to explore the area from (great birding opportunities). The cabin and property are lovely and Caroline was a wonderful host. We particularly enjoyed watching the variety of birds at the feeders while sipping our morning coffee. We hope to be back someday, as we fell in love with Arizona immediately!
Really enjoyed my stay at Caroline and Charles’ property in St. David. It was centrally located to everything I wanted to see - Fort Bowie, the Dragoon and Chiricahua Mts., Tucson, Bisbee, etc…. It was quiet, relaxed, stocked well and really comfortable to have a place I could come and go, cook a meal if I wanted to and just “recharge” for a week. Will return!
The place was very clean, and quiet. Owners were super welcoming and easy to work with.
Caroline and Charlie were wonderful hosts. Would absolutely recommend their charming cottage. Would definitely return again.
We really enjoyed sitting outside on the back porch watching the quail. Caroline was friendly and everything was as she described. Thanks!
The experience was very easy Caroline was available to answer any questions we had. We enjoyed all the wildlife and birds. Property was well kept peaceful and quiet. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend to anyone
Very nice
This was perfect! I wanted to escape the fireworks and spend a quiet weekend relaxing with my dogs. The owners were pleasant and the location was ideal. The guest house itself was clean and had all the amenities I needed, including an incredibly comfortable mattress!
Our favorite part of this cute, small cabin was the back patio/yard. We used the clean BBQ every night and sat watching the bunnies and quail nibble in the backyard. There were many quail families with lots of chicks. In the morning, many jackrabbits grazed on the grass and the seed brick. It was a continuous animal show. Also, the hosts are responsive and kind. I highly recommend this property.
Caroline is very personable and accommodating. The location is quiet and peaceful. The cabin was clean, cute and efficient, with everything you would need. We especially enjoyed watching the wildlife in the backyard and the beautiful flowers everywhere.
This little guest house is in a very central location - we used it for a trip to see Bisbee, Tomestone, Kartchner Caverns, Wilcox and then went to Elgin/Sonoita on our last day. The house is super clean, very comfortable for 2 people and well equipped. It is sitting on a ranch with horses, which you can say hi to. We also saw a ton of different kinds of birds while sitting out on the patio having coffee in the morning. The owners are wonderful. I can't recommend this place enough for a Southern Arizona trip.
There isn't a lot we can add to what other reviewers have said. There's a reason other travelers have given this property such high ratings, and it's because it's a great place to stay! We loved the birds, the views from the property, the convenience and comfort of the cottage, the service from Charlie and Carolyn, and everything else we can think of. In the week we stayed there, we visited Kartchner Caverns, Colossal Cave, Chirichaua Nat'l Monument, Saguaro Nat'l Park, and several other places. One unexpected delight was the bird sanctuary at Holy Trinity Monastery just down the road in St. David. Book a stay here and you will see why everyone raves about what a peaceful and relaxing place it is!
