Going to Bisbee is like going to Mecca for Steve. There is a vintage trailer motel called the Shady Dell which features a variety of vintage trailers and a boat that you can stay in. They are all furnished in period furniture and accessories. They even had a little diner call Dot's that was open until a couple of years ago. The Shady Dell has been here since 2000 and has been featured in the NY Times, Gourmet, etc.

You can even stay in a cabin cruiser. |

We stayed at a campground 6 miles outside Bisbee. It looks desolate, but it was very beautiful. We had views of the valley and the mountains. |

Bisbee, itself was a cool town founded because of the copper mines. The town is built into the mountains with steep roads and turn of the century buildings.
