Private little Studio Casita within walking distance to Ajo's central plaza, or just minutes in the opposite direction to the local desert walking/biking/driving trail. The Casita makes a nice base for exploring the desert surrounding Ajo including places like Organ Pipe Nat'l Monument, Quitobaquito, or day trips into Mexico. Or, just sit back, enjoy the quiet and our dark sky community.

Great place, great hosts
The Artist’s Cottage is a lovely reflection of Charleen’s artistry and Glen’s construction skills. The small space is well equipped, efficiently organized, and enhanced by the presence of Charleen’s art on display. Everything necessary for a comfortable stay was provided and Glen was an amiable guide to the local area. When we experienced car trouble the day after our stay, Charleen and Glen went far above and beyond to assure us that, if we needed a place to stay, they’d hold the cottage for us. When we learned that we wouldn’t need to remain in Ajo, they assured us that we could call on them if we needed help on the road; they even contacted us early the next day to make sure we’d made it safely home!! Needless to say, we definitely recommend the Artist’s Cottage!

A Breath of Fresh Air
The Artists Cottage is a breath of fresh air. It’s small, but by no means is it cramped. It’s quint and homey, and gave off a down to earth/good time feel that was immediately felt. It has all the amenities one would need. Nothing was left out. This one room cottage is a gallery filled with eclectic art. Spending time with any of the Charleen’s pieces (and we did) is time well spent. It is a solitary place, set with a view of the mountains, where sunrise and sunset were appreciated; where moments of each night were reserved for viewing the night sky filled with stars. Our short residence at the cottage…this wonderful art gallery was truly a unique experience that will be remembered. For us, it was a moment in time to catch a memory, and we thank Glen and Charleen for providing it. Thanks a bunch! Laurie & Pete

Nice Place
The place was clean and very well decorated (one of the owners is an artist). It's also within walking distance of Circle K which is open 24 hours (and given that I didn't arrive until 1:00 AM I found this quite handy). If I am ever in Ajo again I would choose to stay here.

The cabin is very cute and has everything for a comfortable stay. Glen is a very nice man and we enjoyed visiting with him and seeing all the work he put into his property. Location is perfect for grocery and restaurant.

Attending our 50th class reunion was so much fun. And staying at The Artist's Cottage completed a great weekend. My sister and I were doing all the events planned, and having this little quiet, perfectly appointed cottage to relax, recharge and rest in was amazing. Charleen was so nice, thoughtful, and anticipated things guests would need, and provided goodies that were so appreciated. Will definitely stay again the next time we are in Ajo.

Tolle Unterkunft- gespickt mit liebevollen Details und bunten Accessoires! Ein unglaublicher Sternenhimmel begleitet uns in die Nacht. Optimal ausgestattet für Selbstversorger (die örtlichen Essensangebote konnten nicht überzeugen). Der Organ Pipe Nationalpark liegt nahe und bietet die größte Diversität an Kakteen! Das Gastgeber Paar war äußerst nett. Herzlichen Dank für diese wunderbare Übernachtungsmöglichkeit!
