Property is a great desert oasis, evenings on the porch watching the stars and lighting were relaxing.
Host was responsive and great to work with, making the stay a pleasant experience. 😊
This is a great location for R & R that includes bikes, birdwatching, and quiet evenings on the porch. Renee was super responsive to questions and provided a lot of detailed information about the area.

Thank you Judith for that excellent review. We are so happy that you both had a wonderful time at Hummingbird Ranch. Please hurry back again soon for another Birding/Hiking Adventure in SE Arizona :). You both are the best :).

This well-appointed place was perfectly comfortable for 2 friends traveling together. It had everything we needed to enjoy "a home away from home," plus dark skies for stargazing, bird feeders and seed to attract feathered friends, and quiet surroundings for R&R. The hosts were instantly responsive when I texted to ask them to turn up the heat, and we appreciated their attentive hospitality.

Jim & Lisa were 5-star guests and left our Hummingbird Ranch extra clean and beautiful. The kind of guest that our cleaning lady loves. We can't wait until they return for another hiking and birding getaway.
5-Stars..... Thank you for staying at Hummingbird Ranch Vacation Rental in Pearce Arizona.
My sister and I had a wonderful, but too short of stay. The location was perfect for us to explore the area, especially the Chiricahuas and Whitewater Draw. The property has numerous seating areas to just sit, relax and watch birds and other wildlife, plus the sun rise and set. The night skies were amazing!

We came down for a four-night stay after visiting our daughter & son-in-law in the Phoenix area. So quiet - it was great! It was an excellent home base for our trip to Tombstone, two days hiking in Chiricahua National Monument, and late afternoon wine tastings at two of the many wineries in the area. Willcox (about at 25 minute drive north) had several good restaurants to chose from. So glad we made the trip!

Thank you Jeff and Karen for trying out our Birding Ranch. We are so delighted that you both loved and enjoyed the Ranch, and you were able to go on nice hikes at our National Parks. Glad that you were also able to make a trip to Tombstone. We love the 3 in 1 tour we buy from Groupon. So much fun.
Please hurry back soon for another fulfilled SE Arizona Vacation.
You both are 5 Star guests too :)
My husband and i and another couple thoroughly enjoyed our three night stay. Can’t say enough positive things about the host, house and views! Renee was so easy to communicate with. Directions were good and getting into the property was easy. The house had everything we needed to cook several meals. Comfy beds, plenty of seating inside and out. Would definitely stay again! Thank you Renee and Stephen!

5 Star Guests ~Thank you Laura & Troy & friends for choosing our Hummingbird Ranch for your SE Arizona getaway. We are so delighted that you all had a great time. My cleaning lady gave you 5 stars on keeping the place so nice. Steve and I truly love this part of Arizona with tons of Western & Apache Indian history to discover. We have been coming out since 2007 and to date, we still have not seen everything. Please hurry back for another funfilled escape to the desert :)
Warm Regards Renee & Stephen
We had a short two night stay Hummingbird Ranch timed to view the winter residency of the Sandhill Cranes. This is wonderfully appointed, comfortable, private getaway on 25 acres of Sonoran Desert, adjacent to both wetlands where the Sandhill Cranes winter (Willcox Playa and Whitewater Draw). The owners were very supportive and we enjoyed communicating the Renee. She gave us much great advice for enjoying our stay. The night sky was spectacular! The bed was comfy and the place was outfitted as well as any VRBO we stayed in. We look forward to returning when we can spend more time.

It was so great having your family stay at Hummingbird Ranch :) Our dark Bortle 2 starry skies are our favorite part of the Ranch with billions of stars and Milky Way. Steve & I stay up all night long looking at planets, stars and galaxies. Please hurry back for another fun filled SE Arizona Desert Vacation. Thank you for choosing our Birding Ranch for your vacation. :)
Thank you Renee and Steve for your beautiful Hummingbird Ranch. It was spotless clean and fully stocked. Spacious with two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. As soon as we were welcomed by Cali the cat we knew this was the place for us! We love the Pearce/Sunsites area with all of the birding, hiking and beautiful scenery nestled between the Dragoon Mountains and Chiricahua National Monument. We will definitely return! Our only suggestion is it would be nice to have a photograph of you both somewhere on the premises. Happy 2023 New Year!

Hummingbird Ranch Vacation Rental
Wonderful hosts and great location for our adventures!
We were traveling to the area to meet some family and friends that go there every year. This was a great location with a handful of restaurants and diners we could meet up at. While we ate dinner out each night, the home is so well stocked that I wouldn't hesitate to whip up a full meal! The best-stocked kitchen of all the vacation rentals we've had! (Could maybe use a larger cutting board though!;))
The home was comfortable and offered quiet and rest. We were lazy in the mornings to accommodate our 13-year-old son, but then took off for hikes or exploring in the afternoon. The Chiraucagua's are a MUST see. We also hiked to the half-moon tank at the Cochise Stronghold, found Camp Rucker and did the touristy loop of Tombstone and Bisbee. So rich with Western history!
Renee was a wonderful, attentive host and if we ever venture that direction again, we'll definitely check here first!
Thank you Renee & Steve!

We hope that you all return soon for yet another South Western Adventure at Hummingbird Ranch :) A special thank you for making our evenings more fun with the wonderful photos each day of your adventures :) You have a beautiful family & Happy New Year......

Hummingbird Ranch
What a gorgeous home in gorgeous surroundings! I booked the Hummingbird Ranch for an astrophotography trip, and it was simply ideal. Amazing dark skies! And, the owners have even installed a fantastic observatory that I put to great use. I want to emphasize how incredible Renee and Steve were throughout the whole process. They made sure everything was set up perfectly. Their home is beautiful, comfortable, and well-appointed. It’s situated in a wonderful historic area, not far from great locations like Tombstone and Bisbee. For me, it was the perfect mix of seclusion and connection: it’s great to be in a secluded area and still have excellent cell reception! And, of course, the home is well equipped with WiFi and other amenities. The ranch property is simply beautiful. And anyone looking for spectacular dark skies will not be disappointed. Thank you again, Renee and Steve, for a wonderful getaway!

Thank you Jason for that 5 Star review. We are so delighted that you enjoyed our Ranch and so glad that our stargazing observatory fit your needs. It was so enjoyable working with you also :). My husband loves his stargazer clients. After all, when we visit to work on the Ranch, he is up all night long enjoying our extra starry skies. Please hurry back for another stargazing adventure. You are Hummingbird Ranch family now. Take good care...….

Comfortable, Peaceful, Relaxing
The Hummingbird Ranch is a comfortable, peaceful place to relax and enjoy while exploring southeastern Arizona. The house is in a beautiful rural setting and comes stocked with everything you might need during your stay.
The open views in every direction from the house are beautiful, and truly make this a special setting. The owners have placed bird feeders around the property, and guests who bring along a bag or two of birdfeed will be treated to non-stop opportunities for bird viewing. Another wonderful feature of this property is the amazing display of stars in the night sky. If you enjoy stargazing, this is an ideal setting.
The owners, Steve and Renee, were absolutely wonderful to work with.
Communication with them was exceptional from initial booking all the way through departure. They truly seemed to care that their guests had the best experience possible while staying at their property.
We loved our stay at the Hummingbird Ranch and hope to be able to visit again someday. If you're seeking a comfortable, relaxing location to stay while visiting this area, this is a wonderful option.

Had a enjoyable week in SE Arizona. And the owners identified a local couple that might be willing together for a day to check out the wildlife in the area (we did meet up for a day). Had some issues with the provided WiFi so utilized my mobile phone as a hot-spot which worked well (surprisingly good cell service for a somewhat remote location).

Beautiful Home, very peaceful and very well stocked! Renee, the host was amazingly helpful! Had everything well organized and even when our Internet went out she knew without us even telling her!!! She sent us a message and told us exactly how to get reconnected!!! We enjoyed hiking and visiting all around the area including Tucson, Tombstone, Fort Bowie, Bisbee, Cochise Stronghold and Chiricahua National Monument. We threw some bird seed out and in no time we had some birds around! Also watched the sandhill cranes come and go at Willcox and Whitewater Draw. If you want to visit the beautiful southwest this home would be a great place to stay!
