Spur Cross Inn provided such a nice atmosphere. The surrounding landscape beauty was mirrored in the lovely and fun decor. Expedia still says there is a coffee shop and restaurant there but there isn’t. There are plenty of good restaurants close by, wonderful shopping and beautiful hiking spots.

This is a charming and nicely decorated cottage with a wonderful view. We liked the quiet. Cave Creek is a little town with lots of good restaurants close by. We looked forward to coming back each day after our adventures around Phoenix.

The room was great, but it's not a bed and breakfast. It's really just a 3 room boutique hotel. No signage on the street and pitch black at night made it tough to find. No one answers the phone, you have to leave a message.

Hey William, Spur Cross was a bed and breakfast long before Covid, it does state on Expedias website that there is no breakfast option . As I said while you were here , I cook for guests with advance notice . I recall you all came in after 9pm and did not ask for specific directions ….it’s dark in Cave Creek Az . We have low / no level light requirements .I answer the phone during the day or as you said you can leave me a message , because there are so many scammers out there I don’t recognize most phone numbers as I am in the hospitality business .I certainly hope you enjoyed your stay.My apologies for any inconvenience you encountered . Best,Carolyn

You really knew you were in the southwest! Views, landscaping, antiques, the room decorations were all kool!! I Was there to take an exam and expecting typical hotel environment so was a little uptight at the beginning. Spur Cross helped me relax and enjoy the area! I didnt have time to be a tourist, but will definitely come back to Spur Cross B&B! So nice and so cute! Host was very accommodating and sweet!

We loved the cozy hometown feeling and the view outside the window. The only thing that was disappointing was that it was advertised as a bed and breakfast but there was no breakfast. We also thought there might be common areas inside to enjoy but we only had access to our room and the exterior.

Hey Danielle , I was a bed and breakfast before covid . Now breakfast is available upon request @$15 dollars a person , you need to make the request to me and there is no breakfast option on Expedia or Bookings ,it is listed as Spur Cross Inn , my apologies for the confusion . The common areas are all the patios and visiting the donkeys .The weather is more often than not perfect for being outdoors . I am happy your enjoyed your room and the beautiful setting . Next time call me and I am happy to cook breakfast with advance notice. Happy Holidays Carolyn

Comfortable and Relaxing
Enjoyed the room and felt very comfortable. Would love to stay more nights. Maybe in the future we will stay again. Only down fall was couldnt get firestick to work on the tv. We didnt have the sign on information so just went to bed. Major storms that night so when we got up for our early morning departure it would have been nice to watch the news for updated information on the storms.

I loved staying at Spur Cross Inn
Carolyn was super nice and informative. I loved the decor of the guest house and the view and land was breath taking. There is a trail on the premises which was really convenient. On of my favorite things was meeting and feeding her rescue donkeys Lita and Henry! They were so cool. I felt so well rested after staying there.

Such a charming little place. This is for a slower, easy living crowed. Not fancy high class. Well lived in well loved property. A personal little paradise for the owner. Carole was very warm and friendly. This was exactly what I was looking for. If you're looking for prim and proper and everything in it's place, this is probably not for you. The room was great, charming and very comfortable. Park in the lower drive so that the donkeys will greet you everyday for their head scratching toll.
