From the owner

Recognized by MillionMile Magazine as one of the Top Ten Unbelievable Places to Celebrate Airbnb's 10th Anniversary, Rio Rancho Verde offers a ranch style experience just 20 minutes from Scottsdale, AZ. Winner of the 2020 LUX Magazine "Most Serene Desert Accommodations and Horse Boarding Facility - Southwest USA". VRBO selected the ranch (one of 5 locations out of 3500 short term rentals in Scottsdale) to film a Youtube video and we've been featured in several Hulu and film making projects. Our property is unique in it's size (62 acres) and location - right on the Tonto National Forest. We're secluded and surrounded by the most amazing Sonoran Desert scenery and offer a relaxing alternative to the fast pace of city life. Come out and hike, bike or ride a horse (yours are welcome, rentals available down the road) or just relax and watch the spectacular sunsets on the ridge overlooking the mountains and desert vistas. The bunkhouse is 800 sq feet, fully furnished, and offers a combination of eclectic Western furnishings and upscale interior design. A full kitchen with stove, microwave/convection oven, frig, big screen TV, dinette, laundry facilities and AC will insure a comfortable stay. Enjoy a glass of wine in the private courtyard as the sun goes down, or sip your morning coffee in the barn as the horses wait for their breakfast. Rio Rancho Verde gives guests a relaxing alternative to the fast paced city life, yet is close enough to Scottsdale, Carefree and Cavecreek to enjoy gourmet dining, first class shopping and a multitude of events and activities. We also board horses and have a separate area for those who wish to rent stalls and experience riding in the foothills and mountains of Arizona. This equine Ecoranch is committed to supporting a sustainable environment through the use of reduce, reuse, recycle and repurpose practices. From the organic garden (help yourself to our veggies) to the recycled metal artwork scattered throughout the Ranch, to the rainwater recapture and solar lighting, we're all about being green and respecting the natural desert landscape in which we live.

Reset, recharge, relax and rejuvenate - we truly live in paradise and have the best of both worlds - city access and remote rural relaxation. We hope you'll enjoy this special spot as much as we do!

Pets are welcome (sorry, no cats), please check with host in advance. Pet fee applied.

We have other listings if this one is not available - 5861086, a two bedroom suite with private pool and a Western bunkhouse/casita. This is truly a unique and very special place, we hope to share it with you!
