Ranch

Return to the days when life was not so complicated. In the late seventeenth century, the fertile Altar valley was settled by

Spanish Jesuits. Father Eusebio Francisco Kino and his followers built a mission outpost on the ranch. Still standing this rare

historic adobe structure is reputed to be the second oldest building in Arizona. Today it serves as a peaceful gathering place

for our guests to mingle and relax. Ranch of the "She Bear", is one of the last great Spanish Haciendas still standing in

America. During the Mexican Revolution, Pancho Villa was said to have fires shots at the Hacienda. You can even hold a

Mexican cannonball found in the stucco walls of the Hacienda dining room! Serving as a guest ranch since the 1920’s it

became a secluded gathering place for many well-known figures. Past guests include, among others, President Lyndon B.

Johnson and Margaret Mitchell, author of Gone With The Wind.

Typically the sun shines more than 300 days a year. At night the stars twinkle and shine with unmatched clarity from a coal

black sky. Located in the high Sonora Desert along the Mexican border, the ranch is only an hour south of Tucson. Nestled

among huge eucalyptus trees the gracious lifestyle of the Old Southwest is captured and treasured. The magic and

spirituality of the ranch is timeless and will touch your soul!
