We had the best stay at the Ocotillo House. After a couple long days of exploring the the area, we loved coming back and relaxing in the pool. The house had everything we needed. We especially loved the hummingbird with the nest on the back patio.

Family reunion at Ocotillo House

We utilized the house for a family reunion. The house and yard were perfect with plenty of room and seating! The host was easily accessible throughout our stay. It was only moments away from hiking, biking and shopping. I definitely would stay there again!
