Our stay at Tanque Verde Ranch exceeded every expectation. The grounds are absolutely stunning—pictures truly don’t do them justice. Even in July, the pool was refreshingly perfect, which we were initially concerned about, but it quickly became one of our favorite spots to cool off. Our room comfortably housed five women, with plenty of space and storage for all of us. It was clean, well-kept, and thoughtfully designed for groups. What really made our stay unforgettable, though, was the incredible staff. Every team member we encountered was warm, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what they do. Special shoutouts to: • Sam at the front desk, who was a rockstar in helping us navigate and book all our activities. She’s extremely knowledgeable and made planning effortless. • Bill with the wrangling program, who was kind, patient, and supportive—perfect for our little group of first-time riders. • Nick from activities, who brought a fun, relaxed vibe to axe throwing and archery and made it such a blast. The dining options were equally impressive. We enjoyed both the sit-down meals and the buffet, and every single dish was delicious. The cocktails were a standout—crafted with fresh ingredients like prickly pear and strawberry purées (no pre-mixes here!), a spiced apple Old Fashioned we’re still talking about, and a great wine selection to top it off. The Cowboy Cookouts were festive and fun, and the sunrise breakfast horse ride was a magical experience—absolutely a must-do. All in all, Tanque Verde Ranch is a hidden gem in Tucson, and we can’t recommend it highly enough. From the setting to the service, it’s a place we’re already looking forward to returning to.

Our first experience at a VR Dude Ranch and it was amazing and memorable. My youngest wanted to learn how to ride horses so this is the only ranch that has the best kids program. The accommodations were beautiful and rooms were good. The food is great and cater fur vegan & gluten. I only wish they would have additional choices that suit other cultures.
