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🙂
The host was quite welcoming! We loved this place but the only drawback was that we thought it a bit overpriced compared to other places we stayed for three nights. It was quite comfortable and we loved the view and the hot tub. We probably wouldn't book it again unless the price was lower though.

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!

Thanks Magdalena, loved that you said it felt like a friends house
Wonderful home in Bisbee! My husband and I enjoyed the walkability and the hot tub to relax in after coming back up the hill. The patio area is lovely; I was out there every morning and evening. Comfy beds, fully equipped kitchen, and everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Cedric is a great host - no lists of rules - just helpful signs for locking doors and windows. I hope to return!

What a lovely review, thank you. Save my contact info. Of course the house design, furnishing etc is me…but the presentation for Guests is through my great manager/housekeeper Coco.
Yes, come again!
Cedric, the owner.
We absolutely loved our stay in Bisbee!! Great house and location! We had everything we needed and beds were comfortable. Fantastic communication as well! We will definitely be back to this house!
House equipped with what we needed. Had a small problem with locking doors but the management was quick to come and help. Cute home and wonderful view.

Perfect location for checking out Bisbee. Centrally located within walking distance to shopping, restaurants, and bars. We went with another couple and the split floor plan provided privacy.

Dear Peggy,
Thank you so much for your kind review. When I designed the house I specifically required that there were two separate wings, so you didn't have to bump into anyone on your way to the "Loo" in the middle of the night!
(Excuse Brit English!)

DearNina,
Come again.Keep my email so I can give you better deal. Cedric xx
This lovely house provided a comfortable and secure place to stay while exploring Bisbee and it surrounds. There are all the amenities needed to be comfortable. Finding both an electric kettle and a teapot was great for me! One added bonus was the hummingbird feeder which provided endless entertainment. Having the bedrooms at either end of the house made for comfortable, quiet sleeping. The morning sun and evening moon appearing through the large glass doors was wonderful. The outdoor patio provided a great place to sit while enjoying the view.
This is our 2nd time staying here, and other friends have stayed here previously. It's on the short list of places we like to stay in Bisbee. Perfect location - 5 minute walk to almost anything in town. Nicely furnished. Great patio, and sliding doors bring the outdoors in. Parking is great, too. We will be staying again!

Thanks so much, welcome again. Hope you retained my contact details
We love to stay here when we are bringing 1-2 friends or family members. The two bedrooms and bathrooms are on opposite sides of the house so it gives privacy. The courtyard in the middle is a great hangout space, especially on a nice, starry night! Its so close to everything and has dedicated parking that can fit two cars (its a little tight but definitely doable).We have gone back again and again and we love it!

Thanks Nicolette....such a generous review. did you keep my contact?
Perfect for two couples, we were able to walk right into town. Bisbee is a cute town and we will definitely be back.
The house itself is clean and well stocked. I would definitely stay here again.
Really enjoyed this stay. Bed was comfy, bath tub was nice too. And of course the hot tub was enjoyable.

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.
