Discover a distinct way of life when you visit Tanque Verde Ranch. The ranch, set against the stunning Arizona desert backdrop, provided an opportunity to unwind, de-stress, and forge a deeper connection with the natural world. The children had an adventure they'll never forget. No longer surrounded by busy streets and screens, they experienced the novelties of horseback riding on open trails, fresh desert air, and magnificent morning sunrises. Each moment was genuine and thrilling. They experienced ranch life firsthand, including looking after horses and seeing the rough terrain that went on and on. It was a photographer's dream for the adults. At dawn and dusk, the mountains glowed with golden light, perfect for capturing spectacular images. The camera preserved every precious moment of trails, cacti, and horseback rides. Tanque Verde Ranch offered more than a vacation; it was an opportunity to embrace freedom, connect with family, and savor the simple pleasures of nature. It was an epic family trip filled with adventure, relaxation, and memories that will last a lifetime.

This Ranch and its staff are due all the respect in the world. Staff were amazing. We felt like family everywhere we went. Pool felt great after a dusty ride. A must have is the prickle pear margarita. This was an amazing experience. Thank you to the entire team.

Went for a week with adult daughters. Had a blast. Staff is unbelievably nice and you feel like family. Pool was refreshing after a dusty ride. Room was comfortable and spacious. Enjoyed several extra classes. Drinks were very good. Couldn’t have asked for more.

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!
