About this property

Patagonia Oaks is a beautiful home built on 11.5 acres in the oak woodlands of Flux Canyon. We are adjacent to the Coronado National Forest in Southeastern, Arizona.
Our home is fully furnished and has 2 large screened porches to enjoy the sunrises and sunsets over the surrounding mountains. Patagonia Oaks is a nature lovers' paradise. Over 80 species of birds have been observed from the comfort of our porches, including 8 species of hummingbirds and 6 species of woodpeckers. Feeders and seed are provided for the enjoyment of our guests.
We are located only 3.5 miles from Patagonia which provides an environment that is peaceful yet not too remote.We have large trees, a short hiking trail with beautiful views of the surrounding mountians and an absoultly incredible night sky. We are only minutes from town as well as Patagonia Lake State Park and also the Nature Conservancy's Sonoita Creek Preserve. We are just over an hours drive from Tucson and less than an hour from Tombstone, Karchner Caverns, several golf courses, shopping in Tubac. Hiking, biking, horseback riding, etc. there is something here for everybody, come, enjoy and RELAX!
Late summer and early fall is green and lush with an abundance of flowers, butterflies and an amazing number of hummingbirds. Come see SouthEast Arizona at the prettiest time of the year.
FYI In Jan 2019 I bought all new living room furniture, bought 2 new TV`s, replaced both porch doors and replaced the hot water heater. It did not occur to me at the time to take pics of the new stuff. I will add more pics when I get back down there.

If you hate birds, don't come here.

So relaxing. Totally furnished, comfortable. Enjoyed the rustic Flux Canyon Road to the cabin. Perfect base for exploring the area. A new adventure no matter which side road taken. Hope to return. Thanks Jim for being such a thoughtful host.

Tree-studded mountainside retreat

We stayed nearly 2 weeks and enjoyed every minute at the Nature Lovers’ Paradise home! Close to town yet secluded. Very comfortable, well-equipped home. Peace and quiet with beauty surrounding in the canyon. Spectacular screened porch room facing up the mountainside where we spent all our time watching birds in dappled light. Intending to return!

Quiet, not quite isolated but isolated enough!

Nice cabin in rural community with not many people around. Outfitted with all the essentials, this is a nicely appointed property with comfortable beds. If cellular service is important my T-Mobile signal was mostly non-existent, but my mother's AT&T service was stronger. Two thumbs up!

Birding

Very comfortable living area and a comfortable bed. The living room is nicely decorated and the kitchen has plenty of utensils. The house is pretty isolated, and requires two wet unbridged crossings of a creek. It’s only three miles from Patton house hummingbird center.

Secluded Bird Watching Haven

We spent 3 relaxing weeks watching birds, hiking, reading and relaxing. The property is as described and is in a relatively secluded spot which is what we were looking for. Nearby Nature Conservancy bird watching, hiking at Ramsey Canyon, wine tasting near Soniota. Close to Tubac, Nogales and Tucson if you need more social activities! The host was easily accessible by text and phone and was very responsive.
