On all Hallows Eve two spirits will return once more,
to laugh and walk Bisbee's peaceful streets once more.
P.S. The Doublejack is awesome. We love the decorations. We very much enjoyed the patio.

Thank you for sharing the Doublejack with us. It is so peaceful and relaxing. We walked, shopped, and ate our way through Bisbee. It was always nice to know we were coming back to your quiet retreat. We enjoyed the bread, coffee, and biords. We watched the sun rise and set. It was a perfect weekend!

Thanks again for a terrific night at your beautiful guest house. It was an addled pleasure to get the chance to meet you and Jeff. I loved many things about it, but won’t forget rolling over in bed and looking over what seemed like the edge of a high cliff with that gorgeous view. I must have slept 10 hours—wonderful! I loved looking around Bisbee, too, what a unique, beautiful town. I won’t forget your restaurant recommendation a short walk across the border either. Don’t know when I’ll be back in your area, but the memories will feed me here for a long time.

Thank you for the opportunity to stay in such a lovely setting: birds (hooded oriole, scrub jay, hummingbirds too many to count), fresh clean air, and peacefulness. We loved the guesthouse and were very impressed with the tea selection, but couldn't figure out why it was in the bathroom...oh wait...oooh...I see!!! Anyway, the decor was fabulous and most interesting -- we loved it and the attention to detail that is fun and at times unusual and different. We can't wait to come back -- can't think of any place we would rather stay, even if it means we have to get "healthy" along the way! Hugs to you both and thanks again!

We are smitten. First with the guesthouse, then with eachother (again), and finally with Bob and Jeff. They are so dreamy. Truly felt like family (minus the dysfunction). Favorites: the shower, bathtub, bed, Total Recall, homoerotic art, hummingbirds, sunning in the garden, views, and the fountain. We cooked, we slept, we conquered. We love Bisbee -- and our new friends, Bob and Jeff!

We had a wonderful time and we love your guesthouse. It's a great place to stay, even with 75 steps. The hummingbirds were incredible. We could watch them for hours. Your suggestions to eat at Cafe Roka and Bella Roma Pizza were right on. Roma Pizza has some of the best pizza we've ever tasted. Roka was perfect and the food wonderful. We fell in love with Bisbee and we'll be back to stay longer.

Thanks so much for creating this extraodinary guesthouse in this most extraordinary location. Bisbee is a jewel - an oasis from the "desert" of daily life. Love the monsoon thunder storms. Love the houses on the hill sides, the stairs -- like San Francisco must have been 100 years ago. Love the birds, all of them, even those that do not hum. What a special place! So great to have met you!

STUNNING!
The Double Jack and its proprietor's, Bob and Jeff,
will indulge you in a piece of Old Bisbee history and
hospitality. Perched on an amazing precipice
overlooking Brewery Gulch and beyond, you have an
eagle eye's view of town.
Inside there is cozy comfort not often found in a
hundred year old miner's cabin, but is ever present
at the Double Jack.
The gardens and outside terraces offer an amazing
amount of privacy with views that take your breath
away. It is by far the best guesthouse Bisbee has to
offer.

What a great space the two of you have created. The Doublejack is beautiful and the attention to detail is amazing. We have had such a wonderful experience here. We will be sure to make this the place for us to come yearly for rest, relaxation, play, and peace. Thank you for following your dreams and sharing it with others. The 75 steps is well worth it and part of the charm. I know this place will be talked about by us back in Phoenix.

Happy 28th anniversary to us! One night stay was not long enough, so we'll be back for at least two nights. Everything was perfect. All the notes written prior to our stay are all so true. Bob & Jeff could not have been better hosts. Wonderful guys! The setting, views, birds, peace, comfort and beauty were out of this world. Tucson will hear about this "perfect" getaway. Thanks so much. We'll see you two again.

Do not hesitate to book at the Doublejack! You will be thrilled with your choice. The house is amazing-from the decoration, the views and the hospitality that you will get from Bob and Jeff. They are wonderful hosts and have thought of everything to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The guesthouse is a perfect location to head out to the sites of Bisbee and the perfect respite when you get back!!

This was our first night away as a couple since our son was born two years ago and the occasion of our 5th wedding anniversary. I can't think of a better place to be. You have renovated and decorated this guesthouse beautifully and we loved the private deck for bird-watching, the gentle breeze, and relaxing in the evening and morning. We will definitely be recommending the Doublejack to all our friends and family and wish you lots of success with a truly unique and special place that you have created here.

As the canyon beckoned a reminiscing, soul-nourishing exploration on this dawn, I opened the door of your nurturing guesthouse; and with the sunshine and Bisbee mountain air streaming in, I was greeted by a humming bird who came to lite on the beautiful indigo water fountain that sets the tone for your wonderful retreat here at the Doublejack. We thank you for the serenity and beauty that you have created in preserving a niche of Bisbee.

This has been the most relaxing and pleasant stay! Waking up to the sun rising right outside the window while surrounded by mountains...surreal and breath-taking! The birds! The friendly and outgoing people. They know how to get rowdy! This house is perfect! You guys had everything we needed! The decor is awesome. I'm moving in! Thanks.

Impossible to write a review without excess superlatives bordering on hype, but this place truly has it ALL! Outstanding value for the money, best decor of any place we've yet stayed, fabulous views, beauty/peace/serenity, perfect hosts -- and the best birding in southern Arizona is right here on the property!! We went to the San Pedro Riparian area, Ramsey Canyon, all the hot spots -- but the most abundant and interesting display by far was right here at the feeders by the windows -- and no binoculars required!! This place, every detail, is beyond wonderful. And the condom selection (a la tea offerings in a fine restaurant) was the final crowning quirky touch! Thanks for putting so much thought into this enterprise. We will see you again sometime!

What talent! You both will go far with this endeavor!

We'll always remember your kindness and generosity, and of course, the elephant ears, the views, and the chirping birds.

Most special to us was spending time with you, seeing you both together and happy as can be. We look forward to your visit with us in Ashland sometime soon. Love you guys!

Well, we followed my sister's advice (see 1/2/09 comments) and came to the Doublejack and Bisbee for vacation. When we told friends where we were going for vacation, the usual response was "where?" or "why?." Now we can carry back word to Juneau (a place not too unlike Bisbee -- an old mining town, lots of stairs and hills -- but the weather in Bisbee is MUCH nicer!) of what a fantastic time we had in this area -- so much to do -- hiking in the Chiricauhua's (a must!), the San Pedro River, birdwatching, walking around Bisbee, the Farmer's Market, antique shopping, Tombstone, dancing to kareokee, good eats -- but surely the tops is the coffee or cocktails on the deck at the Doublejack, which now ties our #1 favorite place we have stayed. This place is perfection and we don't want to leave. The work you have done here and your decisions to take new "career" paths are inspirational.

We left Tucson today in the hope that we could find a possible or semi-decent respite from our highly overstressed city lives. Living in Tucson for 4 years, we knew of Bisbee, but simply never got around to coming here. Funny to think of now, since this charming city/villa has so quickly felt like home -- and it is all thanks to you!

In the visitor's center lodging brochure, the words, "claw-foot bathtub" widened my eyes, but the generosity of Bob's greeting and the splendor of this memorable and love-filled guesthouse were what opened our hearts.

There is nowhere else we'd rather stay in Bisbee than the Doublejack. Our appreciation is greater than these words allow -- we will miss this joyous respite, but shall surely visit with you again soon.

The Doublejack has been a delightful experience for our month in Arizona. Bob and Jeff couldn't have been more accommodating and we really enjoyed meeting and getting to know them.

The guesthouse worked well for our purposes -- in addition to exploring Bisbee and the area, Ken worked via computer (WIFI and modem) here.

Quirky Bisbee -- with all its stairs, art, history, helpful and interesting folks, great coffee, and good food -- was great fun.

As birders, we appreciated Arizona. Whitewater Draw's cranes, raptors in the Sulphur Springs Valley, San Pedro's sparrows and more, the birds of the Huachuca Canyons and beyond. We found nearly 20 species of birds we'd never seen before, though the Elegant Trogon still eludes us. We'll have to return!

Many thanks.
