    I am so spoiled after staying in this quaint, private paradise. The food was delicious. The hostess was lovely and attentive when necessary but left us to our privacy when we were all situated. It was simple, yet elegant and luxurious. I didn't want to leave!

    If you are looking for a wonderfully private, natural setting with a warm, friendly and helpful hostess who creates fantastic gourmet meals ...then this is the place! Maggie's home became our home. We played for hours with the Polaris in the hills of the canyons and the riverbed. We hiked on and off property trails, wishing we had our fishing poles. Local wildlife wandered onto rocks by the house while we relaxed on the deck. Hummingbirds darted about protecting their territories and the sound of coyotes calling were heard each evening. Wonderfully serene. Amazingly relaxing. We are already working on dates for our next visit.

    A truly unique, fantastic place

    Maggie made us feel like we were at home, but not having to deal with the stresses of home. The food is outstanding! Better than any restaurant. The views are amazing and I can't imagine going anywhere else for my getaways. There is no cell service, which made my stay even more relaxing!
