    We loved our stay and wish we could have stayed longer. The property is excellent in all ways - everything was spotless, the living quarters and kitchen very spacious, the bedrooms perfect with very comfortable beds, and the bathrooms very good. The check-in process was seamless, communication with the host excellent, and there was a lot of information material on the area available. We especially enjoyed the quiet and fairly remote area - the dark night sky was breathtaking, and there were lots of birds on the property, perfect for us birders. We highly recommend this property and hope we can come back.

    Great property to get away from it all. The house was very clean and surprisingly big. The kids loved watching all the birds coming in to the feeders and walking around looking for lizards. You can't beat the mountain views at sunrise and sunset. Perfect base for exploring the Portal/Rodeo area.

    We loved staying at this place on our birding trip to the Chiricahuas. It was spacious with full-stocked bird feeders, and quick access to Portal and beyond. We will definitely try to stay here the next time we visit!

    We were three women who visited the area for birdwatching. The property provided us with an excellent place to stay---with three bedrooms and more space than we really needed. One of the women especially liked walking around the property and viewing birds while doing so. Wish we had booked a longer stay.

    Property was comfortable for us to each have our own bedroom. The house and kitchen was nice. We did run out of coffee grounds and had no instructions for the TV.

    We spent two nights at this place while birding the area. The place was very clean and roomy. It suited our needs perfectly. Close to all the great birding sites but secluded and peaceful for quiet evenings. Plenty of supplies like paper towels, toilet paper, towels and even bird seed for their feeders. Would recommend it!

    I would definitely recommend this vacation rental. The residence is very nice and extremely clean. The owners were very friendly and helpful. If we had any questions their response was very quick. I will definitely book this location again on my next trip. Thank you for help and hospitality.

    We were lucky enough to find this rental in this area, and it made our trip so much more comfortable while we were able to explore the surrounding mountain ranges. It was very clean and just what we needed.

    This roomy three bedroom house is exactly as stated on line or better. Exceptionally clean, stocked with everything you need to make the stay comfortable. Soft white towels, comfortable beds( we stayed in the 2 rooms with queen beds. The third bedroom listed a futon but it looked like a full bed). Loved the area and we loved the property with all the pretty rocks. You do need to bring your food groceries are a long way away. Good food to be had if you want to eat out at the nearby sky Island grille and Portal Cafe. I would give it 6 stars if I could.
