Wake up someplace special in pure Western bliss! Here's authentic Old West charm loaded with fun-filled appointments. A queen-size log bed features custom quilts and a corral of pillows and a couch/day bed for an
additional person. The tin-paneled bathroom with Texas-sized shower and old porcelain corner sink show off
more of the artful details within. Turn back time in the pioneer kitchen with old farm sink, O'Keefe & Merritt stove and
cool period refrigerator. A high tongue&groove wood ceiling looks down on transom-topped doorways, acid-stained
floors, and Navajo rugs. On the high tech side of life, there is free WIFI, a flat screen TV & DVD, satellite tv, and a great collection of Western books if you choose to escape your apps & emails. Open up the back door to the private cowboy zen patio and kick back with morning coffee or a sunset matinee cocktail. The spirit of Roy Rogers comes alive in this roundup of rustic Western pleasures.

Great Outdoors: There is an outdoor pavilion for guests to huddle around the campfire at night or cool off under the big shade trees in the afternoon with liquid refreshments It's a Beer Garden or Tea Garden--whatever your pleasure.
There are also BBQs for guests use with fresh-cut mesquite wood for the grill.
The fenced compound--clustered around a park-like setting--is nestled along The Nature Conservancy's 600-acre Hassayampa River Preserve. This rare, Sonoran desert oasis is a rich riparian area of cattails, giant cottonwood and willow trees and mesquite groves. Of course we have the famous Arizona saguaro and prickly pear cactus backdrop as well. Don't forget your hiking attire and binoculars to explore our private river trails and lose yourself in the lush foliage of a river outing. The water's edge is about a 2 minute walk out back.
Birders Beware: This preserve's river/mountain/desert terrain is home to some 280 bird species!
