Our Story
WE ARE JUST A FIFTEEN MINUTE DRIVE TO PORTAL ARIZONA
It is a wonder-filled place for Birders, Mountain Bikers, Hikers, and our night sky awakens an
awe that brings folks back next year and the year after that to gaze at the heavens. They
start calling themselves Astronomers, though some prefer Star Gazers or Incurable
Romantics.
We have beautiful views of the Chiricahua Mountains, one of the prime destinations for
literally hundreds of bird species. Portal, Arizona, famed for being base camp to Birding
Afficionados from around the world, is 7 miles away. So when you stay with us, you are
close to the action but far from the "Madding Crowd".
The Chiricahua Mountains provide a migration corridor above the surrounding desert and
rise through seven life zones. Providing a wide range of ecosystems and a variety of plant,
animal and bird species, it is one of only two sites in the US where the elegant trogon nests,
and it is also home to 16 varieties of hummingbirds.
Nestled in the area are hummingbirds, screech owl, great horned owl, elf owl, ring-tailed cat,
skunk, coati, gray fox, deer, black bear, javelina, and bighorn sheep.
Come and visit. Bring all your relatives. We have cottage, motel and RV accommodations. It
is a beautiful place for a family reunion. You can relax by the koi pond while the more
energetic strike out to discover the beautiful land that Geronimo and Cochise loved. This
country is steeped in the history of the Old West. The famed town of Tombstone is less than
100 miles away. Tucson, Arizona is only a 2 hour drive, while the Mexico border is about an
hour away. Rivers, canyons, and mountains are all within easy driving distance.
