Whetstone Retreat, a relaxing home & garden, perfect for longer stays!
The Whetstone Retreat is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath home with a gourmet kitchen. The back patio & backyard are very beautiful, cool & relaxing with a lovely water fountain and 3 different seating areas. This home is exceptionally peaceful & relaxing. It is located in a very quiet community in Whetstone with easy access to all of Southeast Arizona: Kartchner Caverns State Park, Tombstone, Bisbee, Coronado and Chiricahua National Monuments, Sierra Vista and Historic Fort Huachuca, great birding, hiking, and sight-seeing throughout the region including Ramsey Canyon Nature Preserve. Also many excellent wineries nearby in Elgin/Sonoita. Some people are aware that across the border in Naco, Mexico there are some excellent dentists. Ask us for details.

About the host
Hosted by Valley Tyminski
We love cooking good food & drinking good wine. In fact, we make our own wine and do quite a bit of canning (interesting things like habanero sauce, blackberry black pepper & aged rum jam, pickled asparagus, paleo apple butter, etc.) We have enjoyed fishing in Alaska for halibut & salmon and make our own smoked salmon. We especially like it when we get to meet our guests, which frequently gives us an opportunity to share the things we make.
Our favorite compliment from our guests is when they express that their experience has been like a "home away from home."
Our first AirBnB experiences were in Barcelona, Spain and Amsterdam. We absolutely loved the feeling of experiencing how we would live if we were locals there! That's what inspired us to create our own AirBnB. So far, it's been great to share our own area with folks from other places, especially because Cochise County, Arizona is a totally amazing destination in so many ways!
Steve and Valley are both licensed Realtors with Keller Williams Southern Arizona. So, if you are thinking of relocating to the area, buying a house, selling a house, or investing in property in Southeast Arizona, we will be happy to work with you!
Why they chose this property
Ideal location. Cool, shady back patio and garden if you're escaping the Phoenix heat! Close to Kartchner Caverns, Tombstone (and Bisbee,) Sonoita/Elgin wineries and, of course, Sierra Vista and Fort Huachuca. Gourmet kitchen for those who love to cook. Great for military families.
What makes this property unique
Extremely relaxing covered back patio & shaded backyard that attracts butterflies & hummingbirds. Beautiful water fountain. Fairy lights in covered gazebo. Guests have called this place "more than a Retreat, it's an Oasis."
