Description
Located in the high desert (4300 altitude) of the Southwest. We are a gated guest ranch and have over 38 acres for you to use. We have multiple areas for you to RV boondock or tent camp depending on your choice of animals, star view, or mountain views.
We are a private, gated, working ranch with 35 +- Equines (Horses, Mules, Donkeys) and a horse and buggy driving school. We do not have riding lessons or horses for hire. However you can book a carriage ride for an additional fee.
We are home to charity nonprofit 501(c)3 called Equine Safe Haven in which we teach horsemanship, leadership and carriage driving to people, economically disadvantaged and other disadvantaged of all ages. In our driving school we use horses that were saved from going to slaughter. Donations to Equine Safe Haven are tax deductible. Come see all our Equines, pet and love on them.
We have water hydrants for your use located around the Ranch. We have a BBQ/Bar area with tables, gas BBQ and fire pit, we call "Shady's Shanty" for you to use. In Spring of 2023 we will open our new guest bathroom for use (toilet and sink). In some areas we have other fire pits, including one in the coyote gulch site.
We can accommodate any size RV up to and including tractor trailers. Most of the parking areas are dirt/gravel. We have two 30/50amp hook ups and one 30amp RV hookup spot.
Note: The gates are locked after 8pm, and unlocked at 7am. If you need accommodations outside that time, please make arrangements ahead of time. We like to be respectful of our other guests, so we ask that you arrive prior to dark, and leave after sunrise. We also work full time in addition to running the ranch, so we need to set limits on hours so we can also rest.
Note: We close the tent camping in summer as there are desert dwellers; fire ants, rattlesnakes and tarantulas as well as cactus. Please take precautions ground camping in certain areas of the ranch. Suggest closed toed shoes.
