About this property
Charming Brewery Gulch apartment in a historic former brothel close 2 everything
Welcome to the Historic Wills House. Built starting in 1902 by George Wills and nestled in a stone walled courtyard, this former brothel has both vintage charm and modern conveniences. Situated at the beginning of the historic red light district in upper Brewery Gulch, it is walking distance to Old Bisbee’s entertainment & shopping districts, while being just far enough to be tranquil at night. We have several other listings on the property so if you have a larger group, we may be able to accommodate everyone. We look forward to hosting you so come down, slow down, and stay awhile. The Wills House- Nopales Suite . This listing is for the lower efficiency unit of the middle two story building. It is equipped with a kitchenette, queen sized bed with a Nectar Premium mattress and bathroom with shower. The porch is a favorite spot to hang out, bird watch, or just enjoy the high desert air. This is our pet friendly unit.

About the host
Hosted by Shad Kvetko
Born and raised in Phoenix, AZ, my wife and I have settled in Bisbee after spending 20 years in Texas where we owned and operated a James Beard nominated Mexican spirits bar and restaurant. While we no longer wanted to be in food and beverage, we love hospitality and creating unique spaces to share with others. I was raised in the antiques business and my wife is an artist. Both her work and pieces from my collection can be found in the unit.
Why they chose this property
We love the upper Brewery Gulch neighborhood for its history as the red light district of Bisbee, architecture and close proximity to food, nightlife and shopping while being just far enough to be quiet and tranquil. We also love the natural surroundings and hiking trails close by.
What makes this property unique
Our property is a former brothel and one of the few brick homes in the neighborhood. It is architecturally distinct and features a stone walled courtyard that has a petrified wood and rock garden, fountain and native and other plants to attract birds, butterflies and pollinators. It is also alleged to be haunted though they don’t bother anyone. We have been featured in several books and magazines including Bisbee’s Pioneer Homes, Haunted Bisbee, and recently Arizona Highways. We are on several tours including architecture, history and haunted tours.
