We purchased our 20 acre homestead 12 years ago. It had 100 year old windmill and we named the property ‘Windmill’. All structures were abandoned and unlivable at that time , the land had been overgrazed for decades. The saving grace was the water well, which produces sweet ,clear abundant 75 degree water so we new it was thermal spring water. Since buying the property we concentrated on restoring the land first ,bringing it back to its native beauty. Year round vegetable garden, honeybees, orchard and small vineyard followed suit. The adobe home and outbuildings and Sandhill (Crane) casita are restored with all recycle materials from the property. The 1.5 mile nature trail through grassland yucca mesquite landscape provides solitude and 360 degree views Sand over 150 mile view shed of the sky islands in US and Mexico. Along with our four children, this property is the joy of our lives. Learn more about this land: Flat, well maintained, Paved road accesses our 20 acre private wildlife sanctuary. Boundary of Chihuahua and upper Sonoran deserts , 4100 feet, high desert, yucca , mesquite, grasslands. One of the top migratory birding regions in North America. Excellent windmill pumped water and a 1.5 mile walking nature trail. Heated and cooled casita (sleeps 2). Outdoor hot shower, compost toilet, outdoor fire pit and tables, games include corn hole and bocci at your door. Expansive views of 7 Sky Island mountain ranges and dark sky celestial wonder. Adjacent to globally significant Whitewater Draw wildlife refuge. 15 miles to historic Bisbee Arizona . Great climate.

Artful farmscape teeming with birds
This is a gem of a spot. Off the tourist trail, this casita is testament to a simple lifestyle curated with a true eye for offering guests an authentic and organic experience. I wish we had more time to just soak it all in. In our short visit on an uncustomary windy rainy day, we still spotted nearly 2 dozen bird species.

Stay here!!
What a lovely camp! We stayed in the Casita. Horses and bees on-site. Nice 1.5 mile trail to follow. Saw rabbits and sooo many birds. Kitchen was more than anticipated! Dishes, utensils, hot water heater, pots/pan with lids. Little heater under the sink was a champ! Really warmed the room. Appreciated the deck of cards and books available. And loved the candles and fresh flowers! Gotta love Spring! Very special place and I’m grateful that Harry and Barbara are willing to share! Hope to visit again!

Harry & Barbara's place was lovely! The bed was very comfortable and they had a heater running when we arrived and stayed plenty comfortable all night! We got to heard coyotes howling at night and we walked on their trails to watch the sunrise in the morning. We also enjoyed watching all the birds and rabbits! I wish we could have stayed longer - beautiful place! Highly recommend!
