When you first pull into the neighborhood you might think this cant be the right place, but don’t worry you will be delighted when you arrive at the house. This is a cozy little place, perfect for a little rest and relaxation.
The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you will need if you enjoy cooking, and the BBQ in the back is perfect if you enjoy grilling.
The covered living area in the backyard is incredible. It has three couches, a table for enjoying meals outdoors, a nice fireplace, and an outdoors TV and sound system. It is the perfect place for relaxing after a day of exploring the many activities to be found in the surrounding area.
Plan to spend a day exploring historic Silver City and all of the local shops, art galleries, antique shops, restaurants, and historic sites. You will also find countless local day trip activities to keep you busy.
Just over an hour’s drive will take you to the Gila Catwalk Recreation area, this is an incredible piece of engineering, well worth a visit, a nice hike, and a wonderful place for a picnic.
An hour and a half drive thru the beautiful Gila Wilderness will take you to the Gila Cliff Dwellings, an incredible experience. You will also find countless areas in the Gila for beautiful hiking.
45 Minutes away you will find The City Of Rocks State Park, this place is a natural wonder and is so beautiful, a must-see experience. Just down the road from the City Of Rocks you will find The Faywood Hot Springs where you can enjoy a nice soak after a long day of hiking, we enjoyed it so much we went two nights in a row.
And best of all is Amy! She was wonderful to deal with and was full of helpful ideas for things to do in the area, suggestions for restaurants in town if you’re not in the mood cook or BBQ at the house, and she had the house beautifully cleaned before our arrival.
