"“Absolutely incredible! Bob was like a character out of a book. He was SOOOO accommodating!!!! The crew were outta sight great! The food was to DIE for.Sooooo much to do! Horses were great and well trained. Incredible must do in a lifetime! Rustic ambiance.”" - Gigi P.

"“Wow, this place is the real deal. We loved our four day stay, with a lovely King bed in Room #11. The riding here is top notch, and they will improve - your technique if you ask. Or you can just amble along in a trail ride - there were many levels of riders here, including complete newbies. We also rode fat tire E-bikes, and took a ride in the UTV to see "the wall". Food is family style, and very well done. They did accommodate a vegan among us, she was very happy with her meals. The cantina is a blast - there were games and cards and even a night of Cowboy Poetry. We've been to many ranches, but this one makes you feel like family. We will definitely be back!”" - Sue R.

OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES:
Horseback Riding Program – If you’re an experienced rider or have never been on a horse, we’ve got the ride for you. Our wranglers will match you with a horse appropriate to your experience level and lead you on scenic rides through sandy washes, over rocky terrain, past incredible rock formations, and across lush desert grasslands. For more experienced riders, loping and trotting can be incorporated into rides where the terrain allows. Lessons are also available. Horseback riding is available to children 5 years and older.

Guided Off-Road Tours – Go on an off-road adventure in one of our UTVs (Utility Task Vehicle). Our guide will take you and up to four other guests on an adventure to the United States-Mexico border or take you on a trip to explore the nearby ghost town ruins.

We don’t just have your typical shooting range experience, you can expect targets at different angles, heights and speed variations.

Some firearms are restricted to children 16 years and older.
