Bear Mountain Ranch at Ramsey Canyon

Situated in the forest trees of upper Ramsey Canyon next to the world famous Ramsey Canyon Preserve, Bear Mountain Ranch offers a tranquil wilderness retreat to enjoy with friends and family. Nearby hiking and biking trails are accessible year round, and at the end of your day, enjoy a refreshing drink on our second story deck offering sweeping views of the Huachuca Mountains. Deer are daily visitors on our property and wild turkeys can sometimes be heard. Many other birds and wildlife too.

We enjoyed the quiet,well equipped and lots of individual privacy of the house. We are birders and the house is well located to many prime areas. The family history of the house was lovely as well. It felt like we were guests at a family’s retreat.

David made everything easy. House is in a perfect location in a beautiful, quiet canyon with lots of birds and quick access to multiple hiking trails and historical areas around southern Arizona and the San Pedro Riparian Conservation area.

This was a family trip to the Tuscan Gem Show. The home was as described. Quiet and peaceful. It was farther from Tuscan then we expected, but we enjoyed other areas. The kitchen pans could be updated. We cooked all meals at the house and the pans were sub-par for my taste and I would recommend replacing them. Thank you for being a gracious host.

Home is large with plenty of space to move around in. The upstairs library and patio were the best part any time of the day, with windows looking out through the trees and to the mountains. All bedrooms are on the bottom floor, with a couple of steps leading to the living room, dining room and breakfast area. It was a little warm when we visited but the A/C in this home was fantastic. The first thing we heard when we drove up was the wrestling of the breeze through the tree tops, it moved in waves that was mesmerizing!

This home was large and comfortable for our family of 8, plus a dog, many bedrooms and living spaces where people could find a nook to relax. We came to enjoy the bird watching in the area, and especially enjoyed walking/hiking from the house on the dirt road, E Brown Canyon Rd. The bird feeders were really well used, and fun for us, we recommend putting up oranges for the Scott's Orioles. The kitchen was quite well supplied, good appliances, washer and drier, bathrooms clean and functional, comfortable beds, good yard for the dog. Warm at night even with temps below freezing. Thank you for a great stay.

Great location for Tombstone, Bisbee and Ramsey Canyon Preserve! Great accomodations for multiple family group.Kitchen was small but was well stocked for meal prep. Enjoyed the grill and outdoor fire pit on cool evenings. Whole family loved the place. Host communicated well about things that may not be standard like the food disposal switch was under sink. That was so thoughtful to think of letting guests know. Thanks for everything.

A cute house that was very spacious. I love the upstairs patio and the birds and birdfeeders in the front yard. Wonderful views.

The views are gorgeous and the home is spacious. We enjoyed hiking the trail that goes directly in front of the property. A quiet get-away for sure. We had trouble finding the light switch for the dining room and there's no obvious place to take out the garbage, but other than that we had no issues and loved our stay.
