Dragoon is rich in history and natural beauty. The name comes from the 3rd U.S. Calvary Dragoons who battled the Chiricahua Apaches here led by Chief Cochise during the Apache Wars. Nearby, you can visit the confederate graves and ruins of the Dragoon Springs Stage Station. About 20 minutes away is Cochise Stronghold, home and burial place of Chief Cochise and Chiricahua Nat'l Monument is about an hour away (great hiking and climbing!). Unique to this area are the amazing rock formations of pillars, balances, and stacked rocks caused by cooled volcanic granite 50 million years ago. In addition, our area is home to hundreds of different bird species, the occasional Gila monster, coyotes, deer, and javalina.

My stay at Maxine and Chad's Hdden Oasis was wonderful. Due to circumstances, I was upgraded to a Casita. It was so very cute, had a nice kitchen, a lovely shower, and a very comfortable bed. It was perfect for my need. The love and attention given to Hdden Oasis as a parent everywhere you look. Every detail is delightful and exudes a loving presence I hope to come back again with my husband and spend more time here. This place, surrounded by intriguing mountains, which I have no doubt are dripping with birds during spring migration, is truly a gem.

Weekend Trip to "Lil Red Camper Glamping in Style"
I had such a wonderful stay at Hidden Oasis! The hosts have put so much love and creativity into their place. All of the buildings are interesting, artsy, and sincere and exude a warm and friendly energy. The surrounding desert is lush, beautiful and teeming with wildlife. I’ve lived in Southern AZ for 35 years and still saw a few species of native plants and animals I’ve never seen before. The peace and tranquility here is superb, sitting outside enjoying the cooler weather and listening to the nature sounds was so relaxing that I slept better here than i have in weeks, and at night the sky explodes with stars, and I was lucky enough to see one streak across the sky. This is honestly one of my favorite places and I can’t wait to come back to visit the next time I’m in need of rejuvenation.

We absolutely loved our stay at Sandhill Casita. The cozy quarters, the yard, the birds, and especially the host. We were made to feel very welcome here. If you love birding this place is a must. The yard is full of beautiful birds then it's only a 14 min drive to Whitewater Draw for even more variety of birds. I can't say enough good things about this place and the host. Hope we get the chance to visit this place again. Many blessings

They were fabulous hosts! Greeted us right as we pulled in and made sure we had everything we needed. Loved that there was heat and air, along with coffee and coffee maker! Being that we were fenced in, we could sleep good knowing no wild animals could make way to our tent. Beautiful views and everything was clean and fabulous!

I loved the birds and tranquility of the place! The casita has everything you need for a short and/or minimalist stay and is quite comfortable. The outdoor toilet and shower added to the experience (just take note of booking in the winter). I would definitely stay here again.

Gorgeous property with so many birds and a nice nature trail, also conveniently located for getting around the region and only 15 minutes from Whitewater Draw! The casita is very cute but I hadn't realized that both the toilet and shower are outdoors, so be prepared for that (and bring your own towel/shoes to walk back and forth).

Great compact cabin with wonderful views and attention to detail. Nicely equipped, nice finishing touches. Friendly and responsive host.
Didn’t bother us, but part of the view to the mountains is a freight train line. Train traffic is audible, but even the one of our party who is usually noise sensitive was not bugged by it.

So much peace and beauty! We loved our stay here and cannot wait to come back. We came down for the Sandhill cranes but had so much fun birding on the trails around the ranch. We enjoyed the listening to a Great Horned Owl in the evenings and a sky full of stars. Definitely a perfect stay if you want to be closer to nature and have comfortable amenities.

Barbara and Harrys place is highly recommended. Its a unique experience on land clearly loved by the hosts. Thoughtfully
and beautifully decorated in a simple way, this casita will make you haopy. And if you really want to get happy bicycle down to Whitewater to experience the life energy of 1000s of sandhill cranes. We need more places in the world like this one.

We loved, loved, loved Chiricahua National Monument. There’s a lovely eight mile scenic drive located within the monument and at the end of this drive (Massai Point) there's a short .5 mile self-guided interpretive walk with majestic views of the surrounding valleys, mountains, and a balanced rock. However, the highlight is a super fabulous 9+ mile hike called The Big Loop. This loop combined the following trails: Ed Riggs, Mushroom Rock, Inspiration Point, Big Balanced Rock, Heart of Rocks, Sarah Deming, Upper Rhyolite Canyon, and Echo Canyon. DO IT!

Late April is the end of Chiricahua National Monument's busy season -- you'll find chamber of commerce weather and light crowds. This is a dry area -- the creek was dry, and while the campsites have no fire rings, campers are allowed to have a fire in the grill stands (I was put off by this, and didn't do it). It's a spectacular drive through the canyon and a lovely setting -- I highly recommend a pre-dawn walk through the woods to the Faraway Ranch, watch the sunrise on the mountains.
