Love this home!

This is our 2nd time staying here, and other friends have stayed here previously. It's on the short list of places we like to stay in Bisbee. Perfect location - 5 minute walk to almost anything in town. Nicely furnished. Great patio, and sliding doors bring the outdoors in. Parking is great, too. We will be staying again!

Sitting Under the Stars

We spent several night's in this Bisbee house, two couples celebrating a birthday. It was the perfect place for us to stay with two comfortable bedrooms, one in each corner of the house, and two adjacent baths.Although on a steep street, which is typical of old Bisbee, we slowly walked downtown to shop and dine. Our favorite aspects was the parlor doors that opened to the outside and the comfortable patio where we sat in the evening to watch the stars and count the satellites.

Beautiful and cozy stay

We had a wonderful time and really enjoyed the home in Bisbee. It is close to downtown and convenient walk for dinner. The house was decorated with cool art, had a comfortable bed and bedding, kitchen was stocked. We enjoyed the hot tub and views. Had some trouble getting certain TV stations on the starlight TV, but were able to watch movies on Amazon prime and logged into our Verizon account for ESPN. We would definitely come back here for another stay!

We loved our stay in the lovely modern home in historic Bisbee. The layout with 2 bedrooms, each with own bath, was ideal for us. The home was well equiped and nicely furnished. The beautiful art work depicting Bisbee's history was impressive.

Perfect.

The whole process of renting, arriving and relaxation was on point. The house was lovely. You could tell the owners put in the time to keep it nice and inviting. I have stayed in different places all over Bisbee once to twice a year for over a decade and this place has positioned itself as the best. I would recommend to anyone looking for the perfect spot in town.

Perfect place to stay in BZB

Loved everything about this place - the layout, the cleanliness, the beds, THE VIEW, communication from the hosts - it was all perfect. It's fun to check out new places when traveling, but I don't see any reason to not make this my regular stayover spot when I go to Bisbee. Thanks to Cedric & Coco for the wonderful stay!

Why they chose this property

My Welsh grandfather was a miner in region and I fell in-love with town when I first visited in 1980. I've had vacation homes in this town for 40 years and love it because of it history, weather and physical beauty. The town is nestled in a valley of the Mule mountains. It's a liberal oasis in a generally conservative area

What makes this property unique

My house special as it is recently constructed while following classic design and features. It is in middle of town. Great area for biking, hiking, birding, hanging out in local restaurants and bars. Enjoy the artist galleries. Bisbee is the friendliest of towns with active social scene.
