Rancho de la Osa Guest Ranch

We had time most amazing trip at La Osa. The food is amazing and the staff is even better! Hondo and Elise went above and beyond to make our surprise engagement special I’m thankful for the friends and memories that were made!! 10/10 recommend

Truly one of the best vacations we have ever been on. It's hard to express my gratitude and appreciation I have for the staff and what they did for me in achieving a life long dream. Amenities are wonderful, Ranch is rustic but still very comfortable and food was delicious! Thank you so very much and cannot wait till our next adventure together

Another GREAT TRUE ranch! Rancho de la Osa is another great and unique TRUE ranch! This historical ranch offers a personalized guest experience. Walk and ride in the footsteps of Presidents, Hollywood actors and famous writers and musicians and thousands of every day people who love horses, riding and experiencing life on an authentic ranch! The horseback riding trails at the ranch take you close to the US/Mexico border. You also get to ride into the Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge. The border land trails are wonderfully varied and seemingly endless. This was our first opportunity to celebrate Thanksgiving week on a True ranch. We enjoyed amazing sunny and warm weather [instead of rain, snow, cold, wind, etc]. We also loved all of the meals prepared by Clayton – especially the Thanksgiving Day feast dinner! Every guest at the ranch was amazed at all of the choices provided for dinner and the many pies for dessert! All of our trail rides, on the ranch’s well trained and responsive horses, allowed us to enjoy the great variety of terrain, vegetation and wildlife of the region. Being able to explore the desert border lands of the Rancho De La Osa from the saddle of a great horse is an exceptional way to understand the historical attraction of this amazing ranch! The wranglers [Eric, Hondo and Elyse] were enthusiastic, very personable, great with the horses and enthusiastic in providing us with new trails to ride and explore every day! The ranch has a large arena and we were very fortunate to be able to participate in riding lessons as we continue to improve our riding and horsemanship skills. The ranch ensures the safety of guests who are experiencing their first rides and also ensures that experienced riders have the opportunity to experience longer and more challenging trails and terrain throughout this great ranch. Getting up early to catch spectacular desert sunrises also gives guests a wonderful opportunity to observe the horses and their herd behavior every morning. At the end of the day it is possible to observe the young cows on the ranch and even a small group of wild cattle that finds its way to the ranch for a welcome drink of water [and sometimes the chance to snack on some hay! ]. Angela manages the ranch with great skill as she positively responds to the many varied requests of all guests. She and her entire staff ensure that all accommodations are clean, well-supplied and more than comfortable. We enjoyed staying in the Elanor Roosevelt “first lady room” and were impressed with the spacious amenities in each room of this great suite! Her team does everything possible to ensure that guests have great riding and other special guest adventures! The Cantina is a great gathering place for guests and evening bonfires were a great way to end a full day of riding and other activities. A hidden gem is a local cantina in Sasabe that is only open of Saturday afternoons. This is a great opportunity to meet
