Property Description
37 acres located at the base of the Mule Mountains, at 4800 feet, the two cottages are a perfect home-base lodging and retreat for birders, bird photographers, nature lovers, artists, and writers. Close to Bisbee, Arizona, perfect for short getaways or longer vacation rentals, each guesthouse (called casitas in this part of the world), offers comfortable lodging with full kitchen and bath in a rural desert hideaway setting. Lighten your carbon footprint. This property is 4 miles down a dirt road, in the mesquite scrub, and is ''off the grid.'' The two fully furnished, ''green'' one-bedroom one-bath cottages feature solar electricity, and a solar-powered well pump. Let the sound of silence, the clean fresh air and mountain vistas revive and restore your spirit. As the sun peeks over the Mule Mountains take a meditative walk through the labyrinth. Stroll the many paths around the property, or along the arroyo which runs next to the cottages. Or grab a walking stick and take the short, steep hike up to the water tanks. Sit on the bench and enjoy the panoramic view of the surrounding mountains, the grasslands, and Ocotillo "forests" below. At the end of your day, fire up the grill and get ready for Nature's evening show. As you watch a brilliant sunset over the Huachuca range to the West, you will begin to see the "reverse sunset" as the red-faced hills to the northeast begin to turn a deep crimson in the warm glow of the sun's reflection. As shadows begin to deepen, listen for the howling of the coyotes or the call of poorwills. Cotton-tail rabbits will scuttle around, and mule deer may make an appearance along the arroyo that runs through the property. Enjoy the clarity and brightness of the moon as it rises over the Mule Mountains to the East. Relax on the porch of your private cottage and watch the Milky Way begin its immense, vast sprawl across the clear desert sky. Watch for bats feeding on local desert plants (or emptying the hummingbird feeders). While you may feel you are "in the middle of nowhere," Red Mountain Cottages are a mere 9 miles from Safeway, and 13 miles from the historic mining town of Bisbee, where you can explore shops, galleries, restaurants as well as a world-class mining museum which is a Smithsonian affiliate. A labyrinth is a pattern with a single winding path that leads from the entrance to the center. A labyrinth is unicursal, that is, there is only one path. It is not a puzzle, and you cannot get "lost." Labyrinths have been an important part of many cultures for thousands of years. Walking through one is usually intended to be a meditative and contemplative act, and many cultures integrate walking meditation into their spiritual practices. The labyrinth is a square version patterned after some of the ancient sites around the world.
