Madera Canyon home w/ spectacular mountain view

Fully Furnished 1 Bdr/2 Bath + loft in Madera Canyon surrounded by the Coronado National Forest. Fabulous porch with swing, glider and room to feed the whole family while watching hummingbirds at your feeder. One of a kind woodwork 'makes' this home. 1326 sf of indoor living space. Central AC/heat. Full kitchen. Property is walking distance to trailheads, picnic areas and favorite birdwatching spots. It all adds up to the best place for an extended stay in Madera Canyon.

If you are traveling with friends, please check out my property next door that sleeps 2. It's called Creekside Madera Canyon Cabin.

Please note: There is no TV reception (we do have a dvd player). Satellite Internet is provided (but may be slower than you are used to and is subject to weather outages). This is a remote property. Your cell phone will have limited connectivity in the canyon (Verizon works best, but we suggest you set up wifi calling on your phone). There is a landline in the cabin. While there are two gift stores in the canyon, the next closest businesses are 15 miles away. I recommend you get gas and stop at the grocery store before you drive into the canyon. Don't forget to buy a bag of sugar to make syrup to feed the hummingbirds!

Please note there is NO washing machine for guest use.

Great Experience

The visual isolation of this property provided an excellent way to experience solitude, which was one of the things I was looking for. I also went there to photograph hummingbirds and other wildlife and it delivered in every way. I look forward to returning soon.

This is our sixth or seventh year of staying at Hummingbird Hill for a week in late spring or early summer. The birds are always a treat (surely everyone mentions the trogons). It is isolated, quiet, relaxing. We'll be back again next year.

Another Wonderful Stay At Hummingbird Hill

We had another great stay up in Madera Canyon at HH. It's really nice to see all the new improvements since our last stay. The new paved road to the house is greatly appreciated. We had a wonderful time with the birds and other wildlife at the house. It's a truly unique place to stay and take in the beauty of Madera Canyon.

Hummingbird Hill

We love being in Madera Canyon at Hummingbird Hill. It's a perfect place to watch the world go by, hike, bird, and launching out on day trips to catch that perfect picture of that one migrating bird not seen at home. Both houses on Molly's property are comfortable, well stocked and clean. There are of course frequent visitors: coatimundis, squirrels, and of course birds.

Another wonderful visit in Madera Canyon at Hummingbird Hill. The accommodations are well kept and well stocked. Our host, Molly, is easy to get in touch with if necessary.

Another great stay in Madera Canyon

This is our fourth stay at this wonderful house. The view from the deck is truely spectacular, the house is uniquely hand-crafted and has a kitchen with all the utensils you need to cook for yourselves. We had a guest who had a degree in ornithology and he was amazed at the number of birds he saw at the feeder. To top it off, the owner is a very good host. While she does not live nearby, her caretaker lives just down the hill a bit and is quick to help out if you need his assistance. We did not since everything was in great working order.

A slice of birding heaven!

Hummingbird Hill is a charming home full of history and family warmth. Located above 5000 feet in Madera Canyon, a large wrap around deck provides a perfect location to watch the variety of birds found in this part of Arizona. Hiking trails are nearby in case you can bring yourself to leave the view!

We have stayed in Madera Canyon previously, but not at this property. It is beautiful and unique. Though cooler, and the days shorter than in the open valley, the wildlife, and proximity to trails makes it exceptional. The home has everything you need. Highly recommend.

The most incredible experience at Mollys hand built log home. Molly has special family memories throughout the cabin. She was very attentive to communicating with us.
