Whether you’re hiking the Chiricahuas or wine-tasting near Willcox, the DreamCatcher Inn is the perfect hub for local explorations — such an inviting oasis! The bloom-filled courtyard (with a gas firepit, seating, garden art, and foliage galore) leads to a main building with ample communal space, including wildlife-viewing windows, cozy reading nooks, a large dining area, and a relaxation area that boasts comfy recliner sofas and a giant-screen TV. There are so many ways to unwind, in this intimate setting, after a day of trekking or travel. The rooms are spacious, clean, and well appointed, with charming artwork and décor, and despite the inn’s bucolic location, you’ll find no shortage of creature comforts (TV, WiFi, regional wines, and more). Philip and Ray are exceptionally gracious hosts, who make you feel welcome from the minute you arrive, and they’re also both excellent chefs. It was a treat to book dinner and enjoy freshly sourced dishes each evening, including Ray’s amazing cod Veracruz and chicken Parmesan, and they seamlessly accommodated food requests for someone in our party who doesn’t eat red meat. DreamCatcher makes it easy to enjoy a peaceful,...
Read moreOur experience at Dreamcatcher Inn had almost nothing in common with those 5 star descriptions.||Of course, there were moments when Ray flashed a charming smile, but more often than not, both he and Phil seemed annoyed by all of their guests.||||I totally understand, being tired of hosting, but then schedule yourself a staycation and close your calendar for a week or two.||What we experienced was unprofessional and very uncomfortable.||||On day one, Ray complained to my daughter that I was “high maintenance” because I said I didn’t eat pork.||On day two, one of the their three small dogs was standing on a chair outside our door, hackles raised, teeth barred and growling.||Before calling her inside, Ray said, “Oh! That’s Charley. She’s a crazy bitch.”||At dinner, the entire group of guests asked to turn off the music to better hear the conversation. In response Ray blasted music in the open kitchen. ||||We paid for three night nights, but we left after two. ||As you might imagine, I can’t recommend Dreamcatcher Inn; better to drive a little farther for your...
Read moreWe travel a LOT and the DreamCatcher Inn is one of our favorite places we have ever stayed.
Phillip and Ray are wonderful people. They have a way of making the place feel like you are visiting family.
The rooms were clean and had everything we needed including a fridge and freezer. There is wildlife visiting daily and great outdoor spaces to relax.
Phillip and Ray keep things on a consistent schedule so you can enjoy coffee, tea, breakfast, and dinner without ever feeling like you are imposing on them. The place itself has a wonderfully comfortable common area to read or chat while killing time.
Ray's artwork adds a wonderful touch to the already well crafted atmosphere. This stay is worth more than you will pay for it.
They make sure to remember the names of all their guests and are open to share and get to know you without being at all intrusive or overwhelming. Then you top that all off with the amazing home cooking and it is just a recipe for perfection.
Thanks again for providing us such a relaxing experience while we travelled through to...
