Excellent property. House was very well maintained and clean. Views from the patio are amazing. Definitely recommend if you’re planning to stay in Bisbee.
Beautiful home in a great location! Walking distance to everything and a coveted private parking space. The house was spotless, the beds were comfortable, the views were great and we had a blast.

I was amazed at how beautiful this property was! It was exactly as described and did not disappoint. It was close and within walking distance to everything I wanted to do in Bisbee. I enjoyed the spa after a long day of activities and the view throughout the entire trip. The owners were very quick and responsive with any requests or questions. I would highly recommend staying here and I would definitely come back again!

Anne, such a generous review! Really glad you enjoyed it.
Host was quickly responsive to a small hiccup on check in. All was fixed quickly. The view of the Bisbee B from the property is magical. Myself and two friends had a great time. I’d be happy to stay here again! Super close to everything too!
Clean house, we have stayed here multiple times and love the layout of the house with our kids. We also like how easy it is to walk down the stairs downtown. Thanks
Might be the nicest VRBO I have ever stayed in. The location, the views, the outside patio - it's ideal. Will always stay here if visiting the area and will recommend to friends. Thank you Cedric!

Phil et al. Such a kind review and expect you to come again for a longer more relaxed visit. Hope the Puppy enjoyed too.
As a 65 year old I built the house myself(myself and hand-crane) up to the roof line, then I got the pros in. I’m 84 now and couldn’t do it.
Lucky me, I get to go again on Sunday🙂
Great house - close to everything yet private. Felt like we were staying at a friend's house. This was our 2nd time renting from Cedrick - highly recommend!

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.
