Cabin

· 4 guests max · 1 bedroom · 1 bed · 1 toilet

This old cabin has been refurbished and in use for several years. It is located in the fabled San Pedro River Valley, 35 miles from the closest town, Benson. Half of that distance is a dirt road, occasionally graded. It sleeps 2 with an additional bedroom space nearby in the 'penthouse'. This is wilderness. I require a 3 day minimum stay and 2 months maximum. Closed over the hot summer June-Oct 1. DOGS: a maximum of 2 on leash. The cabin has one double bed - towels, pillows and bed linens provided. Use of the additional separate bedroom goes for $25 a night. There is a counter for eating and food prep plus a sink and small refrigerator, a microwave, toaster oven and all sorts of electrical appliances for cooking. Heating is with a small pot bellied wood stove that came out of a caboose. Wood is provided. No air conditioning. You can hike right out the cabin door for miles and never see a soul. Sue will give you directions and where there are limitations. If you have a dog(s) with you, please understand they need to be under control. You may NOT leave them in the cabin/porch alone as dogs have ruined the porch screening and escaped for hours. The bathhouse is separate with a hot shower, colorful Mexican sink and a composting toilet. There is additional space and refrigeration for food storage for long term stays. Sustainability is a watchword in this community which is most concerned about the impact to the land and its creatures that we humans bring.The cabin is over 100 yrs old, in a ranching valley, on the same property as the host's house. Mountains in several directions offer hiking directly from the cabin door in washes and two track lanes. Never see another soul for the whole day. The host will offer suggestions and draw a map.

On leash. No more than 2 dogs,pls. And if your dog is shedding, pls clean the rug. I have no cleaning fee and have found that guests have been incredibly sensitive to p aying it forward and leave the cabin in great shape. I have a livestock guardian Grt Pyrenees dog who is friendly. On hikes in most areas dogs can be off leash. Dogs may NOT be left on porch alone. They have gone through the screening and taken off.
