Bonita Cabin was perfect for our needs

Bonita Cabin is a nice place to stay. It was cozy yet spacious and comfortably slept our large family. It is nestled in a quiet neighborhood but is easy to access and is close to shops, restaurants and activities. I would definitely stay here again.

Great space!

We truly enjoyed staying here. The place was very cozy with great AC for this very hot weather. The location was great and very easy to access. Our family of 6 had plenty of space to lounge around. Felt like a home away from home. Definitely will be returning.

Outstanding location and host!

The property is in an absolutely prime location and we were greeted with a nice bottle of wine! We saw deer and elk every single day we were there. The host, Alberto, was very friendly and attentive. He treated us well and we will be back to visit again. I believe in being accurate in reviews and i would absolutely stay here again. As a matter of fact i plan on it. For accuracy and transparency the following are things that could be improved: - the entire cabin was a bit dusty - there is no covered outdoor area - basic household items were either missing or very limited like dish soap, paper towels, laundry detergent, hand soap, basic cleaning supplies. Again, NONE of these things are a showstopper, although it would be nice to have coffee outdoors even if the weather isn't great. We will stay here again and recommend it highly.
