Really cool place with a lot to do onsite. We underscheled our time here and wish we had more time to experience the huge array of things to do on the ranch. We did do the early photo hike with Janys and loved it. Informative and very beautiful. Groundss are beautiful with a nice bar on site. We do plan to come back as we needed at least another day or two to properly experience this resort.

I can’t say enough about how special Tanque Verde Ranch is. I first visited here as a child with my dad. It was my most memorable vacation as a child. Coming back as an adult and bringing my own children was an incredible full-circle experience. The ranch has a way of blending adventure, relaxation, and community all in one place. The staff are welcoming and make you feel right at home from the moment you arrive. The activities—whether it’s horseback riding, mountain biking, nature hikes, or simply enjoying the Arizona sunsets—are unforgettable. Meals are excellent, and the atmosphere feels warm and inviting rather than touristy. What stood out most is how many guests we met who were repeat visitors. That says so much about the quality of the experience and the lasting memories people carry with them. It truly feels like a place you’ll want to return to year after year.

No shmoozing here... they rock. Personalities, facilities, activities, the environment (went in September)... everything. This resorts does what most maybe wish resorts would do; They deliver on the resort hope! Surprisingly amazing food, solid drinks, and more activities than can be chosen, you'll likely want to return, or at minimum not be disappointed. Suffice to say, I highly recommend!

The service and staff were amazing and our room had the most gorgeous view! I would stay there again. All the activities were so fun and staff was also very knowledgeable about the ranch.

Excellent service, and the ranch was so perfect for our business trip that it didn't feel like business at all. The way the staff catered to our every need was a breath of fresh trail riding!

Tanque Verde Ranch was our first experience with a guest ranch. We arrived in Arizona not knowing what to expect. When we finally arrived we were both amazed by the place. Our room was upgraded to a fireplace suite and it was lovely and spacious with a back patio that opened onto the wide desert. The horseback rides out into the Sonoran desert were both beautiful and exciting. The food was fabulous. It was the best vacation we'd ever had!
