Tanque Verde Ranch

This is our 2nd time at the ranch. It's fantastic! What a great family place. The food quality is very high- delicious food at every meal. The staff is excellent and friendly. The horseback riding is wonderful, with terrific wranglers to guide and teach. Evening programs we participated in included Bingo, a Magic Show, and stargazing. All terrific. We are already plotting our return to TVR!

This place is beautifully situated, wonderfully outfitted and has a very friendly and helpful staff. The food is quite good and plentiful, so watch out.

If you are going for spring break, beware that the horseback rides get booked up. This will be our first time going to Tanque Verde and the main reason I booked was because we wanted to go horseback riding. I was told to book the parents riding with kiddos ride if we wanted to be able to ride with my kids to the breakfast spot. The activities reservation opens at midnight, Arizona time. We are on the east coast, so I woke up and logged in at 3am when the reservation site opened for that day (a week before). You have to reserve each activity at a time and fill out each person’s name, height, weight, etc. The website is not easy to maneuver on a phone, especially at 3am in the middle of the night. There were only two slots left available for the parents riding with kiddo’s breakfast ride at 3:10am so I put them in my cart but by the time I had entered in all the tedious details for the ride, the website kicked me out of the reservation because the slots had been completely booked up! To say that I am extremely disappointed is an understatement. This is the only time that we will be able to do a ride with our kids -they only offer this breakfast ride Sunday and Thursday mornings because they won’t let kids under 12 ride the other rides with parents. The only other family ride available is the sunset ride which you have to pay an extra $105 per person for. It’s inconceivable that I had to wake up at 3am just to book a ride with my kids and I wasn’t even able to book it within 15 minutes of the activities opening up! All the other breakfast rides were also booked up within 5 minutes of them opening up. I booked Tanque Verde for spring break because I thought there would be less to stress about at an all-inclusive. I was so wrong. It is beyond ridiculous that you have to wake up in the middle of the night to book activities a week ahead of time and still not be able to get the activity you want! I’m so over this place and we haven’t even gone yet.

Excellent time with business associates - a great chocie for a company-wide retreat. Will definatley recommend to others.

We had a wonderful experience at this authentic dude ranch. The activities are plentiful and high quality, the grounds are beautiful, and our room was very comfortable. The food is excellent, too! We cannot say enough good things about the kids club in particular. We definitely hope to return. My sons are already asking for a repeat visit in 2027!!
