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.

Birding and Hiking
We love the property and its location. We've been coming since 2019 and come back once or twice a year. Perfect for birding and hiking, as well as exploring other attractions in the area. The house is clean and well stocked with kitchen essentials.

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.

This is perhaps our fifth visit to this property, and, as always, our stay was wonderful. The bird feeders were always busy and the sunsets on the deck a perfect way to end the day. We are already reserved for next year.

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.

It was so lovely to return to this very special, unique and peacefully place. Although never a dull moment with the vast range of birds that visited our balcony, which included humming birds and even a wild Turkey. Not to forget the coatimundi!!!!

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.

Intimate log cabin and unique woodworking
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. Home built in the 1990’s in Madera Canyon. The mountains and wildlife are amazing. We experienced every type of weather. We will visit again. We appreciate Molly trusting us with her special home!

This is our 3rd or 4th stay in this wonderful house. We are already booked for next year! As aways, the funishings are very comfortable, the view is indeed "spectacular" and the birds are very cooperative and appreciateve of nectar and seed.

Ahhhhh....
The time we spend at Hummingbird Hill every year is the highlight of our winter. It's just a few steps away both gentle and very challenging hiking trails. Of course, the highlight is hanging out on the wraparound deck, enjoying the spectacular view, as well as the flocks of birds who flock to the feeders we keep well-stocked. Peaceful, relaxing, well-appointed, and well-supplied. Perfection. See you next year.

This was our second stay at the property which made it easier what to expect beforehand. Our main reason that we came back was for the hiking. We liked the idea that we did not need the car at all for getting to the trail heads. Only .5 miles from the residents.

We try to stay here every year, as it’s always a wonderful experience. So peaceful with the sound of the creek right out front. We enjoy our hikes, too, then heading back to the cabin to relax on the huge deck. Place is always comfortable and clean, and Molly is always available and accommodating if anything comes up. We hope to make many more family memories here over the years.
