About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Unique top of the world straw bale cottage has ASTOUNDING views.

Make yourself at home in this 1-bedroom Catalina hill top retreat only one mile from the foothills of the Catalina mountains. This enjoyable cottage is on a full acre, has a horse corral, features 1 queen bed, 1 and half bathrooms with one bathtub and shower, and essential amenities like a washing machine, clothes dryer, dish washer, hair dryer, heat pump and WiFi. Hiking trails and equestrian trails start across the road from the cottage and, if you up to it, 11 h later you can be on the top of 9,000 ft Ms. Mt. Sara Lemmon. The serenity of our place will help you feel at home while you're traveling in Catalina or just plain sitting around dousing stress. When clouds are around, sunsets and sunrises are memorable. This is horsey country; bring your horse if you got one! We got dirt roads! And that's what makes it SO quiet.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a desk.

Art and Judy were extremely nice people. The cottage was very well equipped and had comfortable furniture. Plenty of seating outside with wonderful views of the desert and mountains. We appreciated their hospitality and had some nice chats with them. If you like hiking this is a great place to be and if you like just sitting around and relaxing in the quiet this is perfect

This property was absolutely stunning! The house itself is well decorated and clean. The views are out of this world! I enjoyed watching the birds in the morning while I ate breakfast. Very quiet area. I will say that it would be best to have a 4 wheel drive vehicle since the neighborhood is on dirt roads. I have a Rav 4 and it was perfectly fine. The hosts are so welcoming and kind. I will 100% go back.
