Italian night was not a great change. The food was mediocre. Go back to fajita night instead. I did a morning hike from 7-9:30am. Concerned about getting breakfast, I asked at the front desk the night before and they assured me I would be able to get breakfast when I got back. There was no food available before we left at 7, and when we returned all that was available was soggy cut fruit and tiny containers of cereal. Not enough for a hot day after a long hike. Even after a good lunch, I felt bad the entire day and had to cancel my afternoon ride because I felt like I might pass out. This ruined the whole rest of my day at a very expensive dude ranch. I didn't get to ride one of my days- at a dude ranch!- because of the lack of food available. When I complained, all I got was a "thanks for letting us know and we'll try to do better" response that felt insincere.

An amazing experience was had…read more This is located near the dude ranch. Reservations are a must. We reserved for the sunset ride. We were quickly given an easy 1-2-3 of steering and handling the horse. I had the pleasure of riding atop of Romeo. The staff were pretty reserved and friendly. The ride was about 1.5 hours long thru a desert path. It was amazing to see the horses navigate in incline and descent rocky terrain. They would halt or slow down walking until they got good footing. Depending on the weather bringing sun shades, water, mask for dusk, proper attire would be recommended. However, I was not fully prepared. With that being said I still was ok without and had an amazing time anyway.

Thankfully, Tucson Mountain Stables came through and helped me get my horse time in with a beautiful sunset ride. Booking was easy, and when my friend and I arrived, the horses were already tacked up and ready to go. I rode Beast, a stunning Percheron cross with a great temperament, and my friend rode Romeo, a Navajo horse who was equally lovely. Both horses were steady, well-cared for, and clearly comfortable on the trail. The views were absolutely breathtaking--everything was still green, and riding through the west side of town offered a perspective you just don't get from a car. Peaceful, scenic, and a perfect way to wind down the day. Whether you're a local rider or just visiting, I highly recommend this experience. I'll definitely be back!

There are so many perfect places to take your photos. It is ranch style and there are even horses! The Arizona landscape is manicured and ready for photos. As well as, grassy areas, a gazebo, and tons of photo opt locations. We did not use the reception area as our ceremony was an intimate elopement. But, there was ample seating area and a serving kitchen available for larger wedding parties. The bridal suite is perfect! Spacious and logically decorated and positioned. Some important features for a bride: large bathroom - with separate toilet area, spacious shower, lots of GIANT mirrors with counter space, areas to rest and talk, coffee and drink services, a mini fridge, and microwave. Further, if you need a nap in the preparing process there is a comfy queen size bed available. There is also walking trails and a separate groom preparation location. This is a large property but they have logically positioned trails which allow them to transport the bride to the ceremony location in a golf cart. The location itself is quiet and intimate. You will feel rested and welcomed. If you are looking for an intimate ceremony that celebrates the beauty of Arizona without the hassle of setting up tables and chairs - this is the spot. *Professional wedding photos coming soon!
