1. Spectacular prairie villa surrounded by mountains (from USD 103)
Wake up to the scenery of the morning sun slowly peeking through the mountains of Arizona while you sip a cup of warm milk or coffee. The livestock are also greeting the day their own way, with rooster crowing, chickens scratching and grazing, and goats prancing and bleating.
Back inside, you can fix up a hearty breakfast with the fully equipped kitchen. Bring your meal outside and enjoy it under the pergola. For the cold desert nights, you can also light up the fire pit and warm yourself while sipping some wine.

There’s also a kitchenette with a microwave for preparing snacks and packed meals, as well as a mini-fridge for storing ingredients and drinks.
