The cowgirl painting on the wall of this cozy little casita just might inspire you to play cowgirl (or cowboy) as you enjoy your stay at this 100 year old historic guest ranch. Wear your jeans, hat and cowboy boots as you stroll down to the barn to pet the horses and imagine what the scene might have been way back in the days of dude ranches, cattle round ups, campfires and the ring of the dinner bell at meal time.
These days, you’ll find the balance between old style guest ranch and modern vacation rental cottage. One of three guest houses on the 60 acre property, the Cowgirl Casita has been fully renovated and will provide a relaxing place to rest and reconnect to nature. We’re off the beaten path, thirty minutes from the nearest town, down a few miles of dirt road, and nestled in a quiet oak and juniper forest.
Sit on the porch sipping your morning coffee, read a book while listening to the birds, daydream as the horses and deer graze in nearby pastures, take a walk up the hill to enjoy the view, or just enjoy the calm, quiet, stillness of nature.
And if you’re up for exploring, you can venture out to the bustling little town of Patagonia, the wineries of Sonoita and Elgin, Parker Canyon Lake and several trailheads for access to the Arizona Trail - all within a 20 - 40 minute drive of our tranquil ranch.
The space
This studio style house features a queen bed and twin sofa sleeper, a fully equipped kitchen, living space with desk and a private bathroom with shower. You’ll also enjoy access to shared guest laundry in the guest house behind the casita.
Guest access
You’ll have the entire house to yourself.
Other things to note
In the 1960s a tennis pro from Tucson owned the property and ran it as a traditional guest ranch. He built two tennis courts - creating the Boot and “Racquet” Ranch. His guest casitas (which we now call the Hippie House, the Hiker House, and the Cowgirl Casita) hosted his famous friends…including Bing Crosby!
