Come for the birds, stay for the food. World-renowned as a major stop on the Ecuador birdwatching circuit, Cabañas San Isidro is an exemplary model of how private reserves, scientific research, and tourism can be sustainably used to preserve forest environments.

Located a few kilometers outside of Cosanga on las Caucheras road, at about 2000 meters of altitude, over 300 species of birds have been identified in the reserve's extensive network of trails and vast mature humid temperate forest. Excellent birding can be had next to the cabins (especially from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m.) and the most accessible Cock of the Rock lek in Ecuador is but a twenty minute walk from the cabins.

Several nearby birding hot spots enable birders to access higher and lower altitudes as day trips from the cabins. Renowned birding guide Mitch Lysinger can assist in planning birding trips to the area's hot spots. San Isidro's rustic farm house now serves as the dining room and kitchen where the non-avian magic takes place. Manager Carmen Bustamante also doubles as a chef who melds local ingredients into creative, eclectic international delicacies.
