We were not sure what to expect way out in the middle of nowhere - but this place did not disappoint in the least. It was large, comfortable, clean and well appointed. The night sky out there cannot be compared - it was awesome! Communication with Peter was quick and easy - although he forgot to confirm the listing at first and it kept saying it was available and unbooked - he took care of it ASAP. We are birders and can highly recommend this place as close to the great area of Portal and Cave Creek Canyon with everything one could need. There needs to be more places like this in this remote area that contains some of the best birding in Arizona. A great perk was the reasonable pricing with no ridiculous overcharges. Thank you!

For birders, there could not be a better place to stay.

The skies were incredible—so dark you could barely see your hand in front of your face. Outside, the only real issue was thorns constantly sticking in our shoes and the dog’s paws.There’s a nice café about five minutes away with good lunch options and a small store attached. For full groceries, though, you’ll need to drive to Lordsburg or Willcox—both 45 to 90 minutes away. It’s about a 30-minute drive to the Cave Creek Visitor Center and some great hiking trails we went to in Chiricahua.The house was clean but dated and in need of maintenance. The refrigerator leaked behind it, causing water to soak the rug in front of the sink. One of our group had allergy issues, likely due to mold near the leak. The main toilet ran constantly, and the hot water lasted only a few minutes—either scalding or cold, with no middle ground. The house seems unused for long stretches; when we first turned on a faucet, a few spiders came out before the water.It also rained our last day, and the power was out for six to eight hours.Despite the maintenance issues, we really enjoyed our stay. The skies were breathtaking, the area was peaceful and remote, and the best moments were spent sitting behind the house at dusk, surrounded by silence and open sky.
