Hotels in Patagonia

Between the Coronado National Forest and the Patagonia Mountains sits a tiny town that punches well above its artistic weight. Galleries and boutiques line the main street where you'll find locals debating the merits of different coffee roasts with scholarly intensity. Birders flock to Paton's Hummingbird Haven, where iridescent visitors create living jewelry in the air. The Patagonia-Sonoita Creek Preserve offers trails where even amateur wildlife spotters regularly encounter rare species. Mount Wrightson Wilderness rewards hikers with views that explain why artists and retirees choose this remote outpost. After exploring, join residents at the town's cafes where conversations between ranchers, artists and birders reveal the true character of this quirky, creative community.
