Rancho Primavera 
Pasamos un fin de semana increible y fue un gran placer conocer a Bonnie. Un lugar perfecto para relajarse. Un pequeño paraiso cerca de Vallarta.
Delighted to have experienced a week-long unique Mexican birding and lodging experience in gorgeous surroundings. Great feeders and easy, accessible, well maintained trails with endemics and specialty birds galore. Will be back again and again…
-Les from Michoacan
Les, the birds and I will be waiting anxiously for your return. It was great having you here.
We enjoyed the beautiful Villa Carpintero in early February. The clean and well furnished ranch house is snuggled into the trees with a beautiful big lake feet away from the patio. The walks through the property revealed horses, birds, fruit trees and gardens beginning to grow. We came to Tuito in search of Racailla, but found the ranch to be the biggest treasure. We’ll be back to enjoy Bonnie, her Mom and the dogs soon!
Looking forward to your return! Bonnie
