We love the Prickly Pear Inn. We stayed one night for my birthday party at Stumblina's Cantina. My guests, three couples, stayed at the Inn as well. We all commented we would stay at the Inn again when we were in town overnight. Our room was spotless, bed was great. Fun place to stay in Cave Creek. Carol
