This is a fantastic place to stay. We visited vineyards, Kartchner Caverns and Bisbee during our stay. Great location, wonderful rooms and the best breakfasts to start our days! Darren and Liz are wonderful hosts and make you welcome and comfortable

This place is the most relaxing and peaceful place I've ever experienced! The rooms are beautiful yet very comfortable. The decor is something you won't find anywhere else, each room so different. Breakfast is served with everything done to perfection. I didn't want to leave. I'll be back soon...can't wait. Liz and Darren couldn't be better host and hostesses! This is a place where you keep coming back.

From the hospitality and breakfasts, to the setting and grounds, to the newly renovated rooms and fun features aplenty, to the birding and ambience and surrounding sites, this was the classiest, most comfortable, and downright most awesome bnb we have ever encountered. Do it and stay long enough to relax, and take in the spot, you wont regret it for a moment.

If google would let me give it 6 stars i would!
If you find yourself needing to recharge your batteries or just being pampered by the updated accommodations this would be the BnB for you!
Gracious host, that made sure we felt right at home, and the breakfast..WOW…you are not getting breakfast like that around the area, for sure..

The newly updated BnB shows (just recently) sophistication with a whimsical decor. Shower pressure was great. Drinking water was clean. Beds were very comfortable. The grand room gave more than enough space to read a book, play pool, Ms pac-man, or just watch TV by the fireplace. The backyard was setup so relaxing and comfortable to just melt the days itinerary away! Package Snacks where available throughout the day if need be.

Not far from the Kartchner caverns, and not far from a hidden gem wineries…

Oh BTW, apple maps takes you directly to down by the river on the correct roads…

Thanks ian & wendy

Just got back from three wonderful days at Down By the River B&B. Lodging, amenities and the decor in the common areas and room were fantastic and historically appealing. Liz and Darren work in tandem to make this place very special - speaking of which - we had gourmet breakfasts, afternoon treats, and desserts each day of our stay. They were very attentive, but not intrusive, and so appreciative of us as guests. We felt very special to be sure. One reason we chose DBTR is the proximity to Kartchner Caverns, Tombstone and Bisbee and wine country near Elgin. In addition golf is nearby. We'll have to catch that next time.||During our stay we met another couple and had some rousing games of shuffleboard. In addition we had great conversations with them and Liz and Darren as well. If you would like a relaxing environment DBTR offers a scenic, quiet (except for the unique calls of so many different birds) and beautiful getaway. ||Liz and Darren are hostess and host who offer the most! Thanks for a truly awesome experience in southern Arizona!!!

Absolutely the BEST B&B we have visited. This hidden gem is the perfect place to get away, relax and unwind! Liz and Darryn are such gracious hosts, sharing their beautiful home as they pamper you with delicious food, comfortable beds, and a serene surrounding to enjoy. We can't wait to visit our new friends again! Do yourself a favor...treat yourself to a getaway, you won't be sorry. Darryn makes a mean smoothie, and Liz has the cooking talents of a master chef.

We very much enjoyed this B&B. The breakfasts are fabulous, Liz is a great cook, and Darryn makes his famous fruit smoothies. Beds are very comfortable. Location is somewhat remote (quiet that we like) but easy day drive to Saguaro East, Sonoita wine country, as well as Tombstone and Bisby, and only a little longer to Chiricahua National Monument. Hope to return.

We had a wonderful stay at Down by the River in January 2022. The location is spectacular, accommodations are fantastic, and Darryn and Liz and great hosts! We stayed in the "cowboy" suite, a spacious en-suite with an old-west theme. The grounds are beautiful and tranquil, secluded and peaceful. This was the dead of winter, so I can only imagine how colorful it must be when spring hits! We had delicious gourmet breakfasts every day and we enjoyed a trail ride on the side-by-side. The stars at night are amazing! We explored nearby Tombstone, Bisbee, and Kartchner Caverns. We had a great time and met new friends, and look forward to another visit! Love this place!
