The choice of things to do on your Arizona vacation is yours, but the possibilities are almost endless.

You can fill many days with hikes, bird watching, and quiet relaxation on 52 private acres and in the Coronado National Forest that entirely surrounds us. The Nature Conservancy’s nearby Patagonia-Sonoita Creek Preserve is one of the nation’s top destinations for bird watchers.

A growing group of small wineries in the area offers an interesting option for tours and tastings. We are in the heart of the Arizona’s wine country, home to wineries producing simple table varieties and award-winning selections that have graced the table at the White House.

Just down the road a bit, the small town of Patagonia is home to galleries and shops featuring the work of local artists and a number of restaurants favored by those in the know for out-of-the-way delights.

You can choose from the long list of arts, historic, cultural, nature, sports and shopping attractions that have made Southern Arizona a destination of savvy travelers from around the world. Tucson is just a short and very scenic drive away and a trip into Mexico is even closer.

Also, just three miles outside of Patagonia is one several places in the area with access to the historic Arizona Trail, which runs from Mexico to Utah.

Spirit Tree Inn has a fleet of five Gary Fischer Tass Mountain Bikes for rent if you want to take advantage of the many roads and trails in the area.

Although we do not rent out our own horses, there are horseback riding facilities available within a 45 minute drive.

Whatever you choose to do, Spirit Tree Inn is your ideal base of operations for a leisurely visit.
