About this property

Magical Nest Hideaway

We are located about 1-1.5 miles west of Mayo Clinic. You'll find us located in a beautiful, quiet and secluded neighborhood. We have a private entrance, a staircase and path to your lovely hideaway. The wooded area behind our home has lots of wildlife. It is not uncommon to see deer in the backyard, as many as six at one time! Sometimes a group of turkeys will feed under our deck, you can watch them just outside the windows of your studio apartment. We are often told of how beautiful and peaceful it is here. There is a covered patio and furniture to relax on in the evenings.

This was a wonderful place to stay for my appointment at Mayo. Nicely furnished and comfortable. Safe, walkable neighborhood. Apache Mall, grocery stores and restaurants minutes away. I'm so glad I stayed here instead of a hotel.

Absolutely fantastic place in a beautiful neighbourhood with wonderful host.

Beautiful well appointed property, everything that was needed for a two week stay was at hand. I visited from Scotland for a two week placement at the Mayo Clinic and could not have been happier with the accommodation.
