Feeling chilly? Dreaming of Arizona style sunshine and blue sky? Wishing you had an awesome family vacation on your calendar this spring? Give us a call at Elkhorn Ranch located southwest of Tucson, Arizona. Here’s a mid-season cabin availability update to help you plan a relaxing and adventurous vacation.

Adults love traveling to Elkhorn solo, as a couple and with friends.


You’ll find plenty of camaraderie on the trail horseback riding or hiking and in the dining room. It is also a lovely place to savor quiet time — reading, sketching, walking, bird-watching and the like. You’ll find a welcome retreat from media, as there’s no TV, phones nor internet in the cabins — note that there is a computer / phone work room with wireless internet readily available should you need it. Many ranch guests visit every year at the same time, to reconnect with friends from previous visits. Many first-time visitors join their ranks quickly by rebooking as they leave. The following weeks will be adult-oriented, with few to no children on the ranch, plus we’ve made note of available cabins … adults are welcome during family o

Kids love the freedom of an Elkhorn Ranch Arizona family vacation.


Parents love seeing their kids enjoy healthy outdoor time, while they can horseback ride, hike and escape from all the organizing chores of day-to-day life. The kids’ program organizes horseback riding around kids’ desire to play and to suit their interests and abilities, plus a family can enjoy as much family riding as they desire. Parents be warned — your kids likely will prefer riding and eating meals with fellow kids! A heated swimming pool, tennis court, basketball hoop, ping pong, horse-shoes, board games, books and plenty of great outdoors keep kids busy — note that they won’t find a television handy. Remember that kids need to be 6 and older to ride. The 5 and under set is most welcome and has a ball, but families need to arrange for childcare. Families members take turns or bring a sitter (discounted rate available) — with advance notice, Elkhorn may be able to find someone local to help out, at additional cost. Here are some family friendly weeks with availability — sorry the week before Easter is full …
