The ranch is absolutely beautiful, and the horses are well cared for and wonderful to ride. One of our favorite parts was the tour through the little Western town--it was such a unique experience and really brought the area's history to life. You can tell this land is full of rich history and has been cared for with pride. This experience exceeded our expectations, and we absolutely got our money's worth. If you're looking for an authentic Arizona adventure with great people, beautiful horses, and fascinating history, I highly recommend visiting. We can't wait to come back!

With prompting from our daughters we decided to gift them both a horseback riding lesson for their…read morebirthday this year. Neither of them (6 and 10) had ever been on a horse before so we researched to find a place that would take that into account. We were really excited for our girls to do the "family" fun package. I called and arranged a time for the ride. Luckily we planned to get there early as we accidentally ended up at a neighbors house and had to course correct. We got there and after filling out a lot of paperwork (waiver forms, info sheets, etc.) It was time for the girls to ride. They were each fit with a helmet and taken to a horse by the owner Anita. She had 2 other ladies with her that helped with the ride. Both girls were walked around the pen with their respective horses and learned the basic commands like move and stop. My older girl was able to catch on to direct the horse with the reins. Both girls seemed to have a good time. The only let down and the reason behind the 4 stars instead of 5, was the pretty hefty price of $120 for both my girls to be able to ride for just 30 minutes. (The owner only wanted cash or bank transfer m, FYI.) And I specifically mean 30 minutes, as the owner kept asking one of the other ladies how much time was left. That was a bit distracting and honestly made it seem like she just wanted it over with. The last concern I had was the fact that my youngest (who I admit is a talker) kept trying to talk to her and the other lady helping, but they kept having their own conversation. I had explained this was a birthday gift/celebration for both girls and we were hoping it would be special. The fact that the paying customer (who was disappointed) was being ignored is pretty sad. Luckily my girls were so excited to ride a horse they didn't see the issues I did. (Mentality of ride 30 minutes then be gone. No petting the horses or seeing the other ones.) This was a decent first experience and there was no concern for their safety, but we will probably explore other options in the future.

TL;DR There was some good, but I found the really terrible at home…read more Let's start with the good. The fish department was nice! I enjoyed the display case as it looked clean and filled at noontime. My husband thought the fried fish was nicely seasoned and cooked well. The rest of the store was clean, the items were labeled well, but maybe because I was unfamiliar with the store layout I had some trouble finding some of the sale items. Either they weren't available or were placed elsewhere. The cashier who helped me was observant and greeted me without making me feel out of place. Please give him July 4th off. Now the bad. Maybe I shouldn't think that sale items automatically mean they are going bad, but some of the produce items I was looking for could have been left off of the bins. The majority of available papayas were soft to touch, the mangoes were soft and wrinkly, and the loose potatoes... the potatoes! They were firm, not old and sprouted, so I thought they were good. Why did I have to cut away half of them because they were black on the inside?? I guess I don't know how to pick potatoes, but neither does the produce team. Paying for rotten, inedible food is not something I want to do in this economy. I expect grocers to inspect the produce they're selling and have the decency to do right. I don't expect to be swindled because of rotten produce. Overall rating: 1.75 stars. There are some departments who take pride in their work, and others that are scheming. Do better.

I bought local duck eggs, plenty of produce from multiple local farms, and locally roasted coffee here. We also enjoyed locally made all-natural sorbet, the coconut sorbet was the best! We came on Halloween and I was heating up in my costume so this cooled me down. It's opened on Saturdays from 9am to 2pm in September through May, and 8am to 11am in June to August. I was told all the chicken eggs sell within the first hour, so get there right at opening. It's located in the old Sears parking lot at the Arrowhead Mall. Bring your reusable bags, and have fun meeting all of the local vendors! My favorite were the goats, though they should definitely be given more space to run around. I also loved the Beal Beans couple, they were very friendly and knowledgeable about their roasts, and grinded their beans I bought from them for me since I don't have a grinder at home. I really tried to keep this review short but I couldn't - it was a very enjoyable farmers market!
