Local History

Take a Closer Look

Set on a historic adobe ranch, our property features a collection of distinct stays, from private casitas to beautifully designed rooms. Surrounded by a mesquite bosque and open desert landscape, there are plenty of opportunities for quiet walks, birdwatching, and peaceful time spent outdoors. With original architectural elements, antique furnishings, local art, and carefully chosen touches, each space has its own personality. No two stays feel exactly alike.

Step outside and you’re surrounded by the quiet beauty of the Sonoran Desert. Wander through the mesquite bosque, watch for native birds and wildlife, or simply enjoy the stillness. The atmosphere is relaxed and quiet, allowing you to enjoy morning coffee in your courtyard or settle in after a day exploring nearby Tubac, a historic village known for its art galleries, local shops, dining, and scenic walking paths.

							We were fortunate to spend 4 nights here in the Quilt Room. The hospitality and quality of this historic, enchanting oasis in Tubac is outstanding. The property is amazing and the location is ideal. Walking distance to the heart of Tubac and the property borders a section of the Anza Trail. The room was clean, comfortable, and well stocked- the bed was ideal for a great night’s sleep. We look forward to returning to this magical place again!

							I just stayed at this lovely peaceful resort. We were a large party of people and and each of us fell absolutely in love with the comfort, walks, history, atmosphere and accommodations in general. We discovered it was a mere 13 minute walk to our favorite spots in Tubac so we stayed in shape while shopping and exploring the artists venues. We are booking again for our next year reunion.
