Guest Comments:

"Hospitality was absolutely first rate! Very friendly and accommodating. Room was very comfortable, breakfasts were great. Nice atmosphere too! Everything gets an "A" rating."

• John and Aline Hyatt, Fort Meyers, FL, October, 2000

"The SunCatcher overflows with hospitality. JC & Carleen made sure our stay was memorable. An excellent excess of beautifully prepared food, a superb pool & a room to die for. Couple this with a desert garden full of unique wildlife along with a short hike to the Saguaro East trailhead, and what more could we ask for? Perfect."

"To those who like to enjoy themselves: We enjoyed our May 15-21, 2000, stay at the SunCatcher very much. The facilities and service were just right and were reasonably priced. We particularly enjoyed the tasty and attractively presented breakfasts and the large, comfortable, and attractive common area. In addition, we enjoyed the easy walking access to the Saguaro National Park and the abundant wildlife and fascinating plants everywhere. When we pulled into our parking place at certain times of the day, quail and bunny rabbits would move aside for our car. We could watch bird life from inside the common area, and we saw coyotes and a collared peccary and nesting hawks in the area during our stay. The hosts' friendly but unobtrusive hospitality enhanced our vacation. We felt very comfortable just doing our own thing when we wanted to be alone and we felt equally comfortable talking with JC and Carleen when we had questions or wanted to chat."

• John & Rosemary McGuire, Palo Alto, CA, May, 2000

"Without question the SunCatcher was the best bed and breakfast ever! From the delicious food to the great hospitality, everything was perfect. An added bonus was the beautiful, serene desert setting. Thanks to JC, Carleen and Claire."
