Hummingbird Cabin

We rented both the Hummingbird cabin and Owl’s nest for a family get-together. The stay was fantastic - plenty of birds, a great set of trails for outdoor enjoyment, comfortable cabins with plenty of room and a well equipped kitchen. Looking forward to a return trip soon.

Great stay

Can't say enough about how great this place is.  This is our second stay and it is awesome to see how different it can be.  The new king beds are so comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need. But the best part is the property.  There are so many feeders and bird gardens throughout the property attracting so many birds and wildlife.  We had a great time and can't wait to return!  Thank You for all you do!!!

Truly Amazing

Bird watching right out your door!Ramsey Canyon Cabins and Bird Sanctuary is a wonderful place. We stayed at the Hummingbird Cabin and observed many birds at the feeders right outside our door and more in the adjacent Bird Garden. Trails through 8 acres provide many more opportunities to see birds at feeders scattered throughout, along with comfortable spots to sit and watch.The cabin is very comfortable and tastefully decorated. Bird guides and even games for bird lovers are provided. It is very quiet.Jen is a pleasant host, knowledgeable about birds. We loved it here!

Amazing Stay

Clean cabins, extremely peaceful and great location. Also a lot of wildlife. Will be back. Thank you!

Beautiful location. The bird watching right outside the front door was magical. We saw a many turkeys, dozens of hummingbirds, deer, woodpeckers and other birds (mostly there for the hummies). Almost better than Ramsey Canyon itself and that is saying a lot. The cabin was in perfect condition. The hosts were very nice, responsive and super helpful. Top notch!
