Thank you so much for the stay on your ranch! Everything was fantastic! My only regret is not scheduling more time here! Next time, I will! Your towels smelled so good.

Debbie - Thanks so much! I had a wonderful time at the Hideout. Such a beautiful and peaceful setting. The cabin was beautifully appointed and had everything I needed for a wonderful week away from life's stresses. I loved having my gecko companion who joined me for breakfast on the porch each morning. It made my day. I miss him, the porch, the view, and the sounds of nature each morning. Calgon take me back to Gila!

I was looking for peace and quiet. I wanted to relax, do some art, and hike in the Gila area. I accomplished all of those goals. I enjoyed starting my day out on the porch hearing the birds chirping and enjoying the company of a friendly neighborhood gecko. The ranch is in a beautiful location and the cabin is adorable and appointed with everything I needed for my week's stay. I enjoyed chatting with Debbie one day and appreciated her thoughtfulness when she brought me some fresh asparagus from her garden. So sweet. Thanks so much for a perfect vacation! 😀

My husband and I feel so fortunate to have been able to stay on the Double E Ranch at Hideout cabin. Debbie and Alan have worked so hard to maintain the true feel of the old west. One week they would be there working 9-6 from Monday thru Sunday. It is the true west. We saw cowboys on horses rounding up cattle and had to stop for 5 mules on the road to the cabin. There were cattle grazing everywhere. Needless to say the beef tastes wonderful. Our charming cabin was so clean and cozy with everything we would need including a stock of DVD's for us to use. We had everything we needed and loved every picture and piece of furniture and Egytian cotton sheets and cozy bed. It was also nice that they had a washing machine and dryer for our use, too. We enjoyed the porch everyday and the weather was exceptional, especially to us northerners. We loved hiking around the ranch and eventually ventured off to a few of many beautiful hiking trails a few miles from the ranch. Debbie left a great packet of detailed information on the ranch and things to do in the area. Because we were there for one month, we had time to view the Cliff Dwellings, The Catwalk and the fish hatchery which were so interesting and even had a visit to El Paso. Really the area of the Gila National Forest is one of the most beautiful areas in the U.S. The pictures on the Eggelstons website are true to what you will see. We also saw havelinas, deer and turkeys. It was such a great feeling to return to our cozy cabin every day that we hated to leave this quiet, pieceful place to visit. Thanks, Debbie, Alan and Chris for being so helpful and for the information that you provided. We can't wait to come back!!!! Mike and Jan

Living up against a beautiful mountain chain ourselves, this wasn't what we were expecting when it comes to the cabin being secluded from other cabins and their location. If you are looking for a peaceful place, this ranch was that. But if you want a more private cabin with the view of being able to see the glorious mountain chain all around you, this isn't the place to go because of their location. When it came to notifying us with the last minute details, this was poorly done. They had a family emergency, which we were sorry to here. They should make sure who ever is left in charge, completes this last step before their guests arrive. The cabin itself was mostly clean except for some animal hair on cushions and comfortable with all you would need for a relaxing get a way except for your food.

Owner Response

As I indicated in my email apologizing for the series of unfortunate events leading up to your arrival, I am happy to give you a full refund. Understanding your disappointment, I would much rather you be left with something positive about the experience. Please, send me your mailing address Our pricing is quite reasonable, the cabins are well furnished and clean. No other visitor has ever been unhappy with the scenery, views, location. Your comment about animal hair on the dining chair cushions was absolutely justified. I would have found it just as upsetting.

We had a fantastic long weekend staying in the cabin on the Double EE Ranch ; watching birds, walking and enjoying the clean air and spirit of New Mexico. Alan and Debbie were were accommodating and I would recommend their Ranch to anyone who wants to get some clean country air.

Thank you both so much for the stay on your ranch! Everything was fantastic! Mt only regret is not scheduling more time here! NEXT TIME, I WILL!
