Perfect Retreat

We loved our stay on this peaceful ranch. Great location away from everything, yet so close to Chiricahua NM and the Coronado NF. We really enjoyed all the birds around, especially all the owls at night. Jim's collection of relics and rocks were fantastic too. We enjoyed chatting with him. Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer!

Peace, Solitude, Beauty, Comfort

I can't speak highly enough of this special place. Located on a working ranch, it's right next to Chiricahua National Monument, a great place to hike, bird, and photograph. In the cabin, everything is thoughtfully arranged and labeled for guest comfort. Special touches like fresh farm eggs and hand-sewn textiles give the place a unique and memorable spirit. It's quiet, the night skies are bright with stars, and the front porch is a comfy reading spot. The owners are friendly but not intrusive; we really enjoyed visiting with them. We'll definitely be back.

Perfect for us!

My wife and I hoped to stay at a ranch, not a dude ranch, and this was it! I grew up with cattle and this ranch brought back all of my memories. Even more than this was that those at the ranch made us feel so welcomed, like were we’re old friends. The room was immaculate, it had everything a person could need, was so well done and organized and the bed was wonderful! The location was ideal given the mountains, Ft Bowie, etc. and we will definitely go back! This said, if you’re looking for a dude ranch experience with cookouts, games, riding, childcare, etc. then consider somewhere else given that this is a working ranch not a dude ranch. For us, it was exactly what we wanted and the slow pace and beautiful scenery and simple living made memories for us.

Great place to stay when visiting Chiricahua

This place is a great value. Only a few minutes drive from the entrance to Chiricahua National Monument. Everything you could need in the house and everything labeled so you don’t have to guess where stuff is. The host provided fresh, free range chicken eggs. The beds were comfy. It also has a nice sitting area where you can enjoy a book and watch the many birds at the feeders on the front porch. The hosts were very communicative. Highly recommended.

About the host

Hosted by Janna

Janna and her husband have been working on this ranch for over forty years and it has been in the family since 1879. You will be meeting them, and possibly their son and his family who also live on the property.

Why they chose this property

The property has been in the family for several generations. The studio apartment was built originally as a salt house, but it was later decided to be used as a guest house or 'Little House' as we call it. We want to continue that tradition and give travelers an inside look into our lifestyle.

What makes this property unique

The views from the porch are breathtaking. The abundant wildlife and birds give you a unique opportunity to enjoy nature. The dark nights provide an excellent opportunity to view the night skies. The hiking and biking possibilities are endless.
