4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 January 2013

Have stayed here many times over the last 20 + years, usually in the cabins. I still love the place, but the most recent trip made me see problems as much as features. Super location, Madera Canyon is great, birds are wonderful, the sycamores behind the rooms are beautiful in moonlight, convenient to Tucson, great hiking, amazingly quiet unless you... More

This is the place that we woke up and saw wild turkeys outside our back window. That's what you should expect here... nature and joy. Priced reasonably for an out-in-the woods place. Nice gift shop. Good kitchens.

We stayed for two nights and had reserved two Casitas. It was a great place to stay and do some local birding. Easy to get to trails in Madera Canyon and surrounding area. We purchased steaks and bratwurst and wine in Green Valley and were able to grill our supper. Our neighbour even shared some fish that he was grilling... More

I stayed for two weekend nights over Memorial Day holiday in one of the single room "casitas". The room was plenty big enough and seemed to have just been painted and spruced up. This is the place to stay in Madera Canyon for wildlife, particularly bird watching. The lodge has an area with about 10 feeders and a rock fountain... More

We stayed for four nights in early April.. This facility is in a somewhat remote/isolated canyon south of Tucson. However, on a weekend, the canyon gets rather crowded with folks from Tucson. It is about 60 to 90 minutes from Tucson (north), Nogales (south) and prime birding sites in all four directions. Madera Canyon is, itself, an excellent birding destination.... More

We stayed in Cabin #9 for 3 nights. Our experience was similar to other reviewers. The cabin has one large room, a medium-sized galley kitchen, and a small bathroom. It has a decent-sized deck in the back and a patio in the front. Cabin #9 is at the opposite corner from Cabin #1, which means there are no cabins on... More

Stayed here with my partner for 3 days. You need to bring all your own grocery's to cook up as the nearest shops are in Green Valley. The cooking facilities are all provided. It's really secluded and was a brilliant base for my partner and I to see the Hummingbirds of the area. Waking up to see wandering deer over... More

Just like the last reviewer, we also stayed in cabin #1. They did a great job describing the cabin so I don't want to repeat what they said. Instead, I will touch on the location which is great. Dining options are 45 minutes away so plan to bring some soup, beans, bread etc to live on unless you want to... More

We stayed here a couple of days in August do do some birding. The location is great, I think it's actually in Coronado National Forest. There is even a hiking trail just across the creek. We stayed in cabin #1 which I guess is the best one, on the end with a bit more privacy than the rest. The cabin... More

Madera Canyon is a beautiful place with incredible wildlife - reptiles, birds, bugs, and plants. I have come here numerous times although I live in central California. I will return again, but will likely look for another place to stay. The people who ran the place seemed nice, but the facility and service was not adequate. When we first arrived,... More
