We have always been campers. This was helpful. We came for the wildlife and were not disappointed. We did a lot of sitting and reading on the deck and bird watching. Wildlife viewed: Bobcat came onto deck, coyote trotted by, birds: hummingbird, verdin, cactus wren, northern red cardinal, gambles quail, pyrrhuloxia, curved billed Thrasher, mourning dove, house finch, ground squirrel more. Always be in attendance if you have a pet. We loved our experience here. Hosts were attentive, but not intrusive.
