Rancho de la Osa has been a guest ranch since 1920. It is, very simply, a treasure which you should not miss if you love the west and want to experience an unspoiled area of the high Sonoran desert at an authentic hacienda rich with centuries of Mexican and American history. We spent five days there in early March and... More

Great experience was had with extremely caring staff from proprietors to servers. Gourmet breakfast, lunch, and dinners were outstanding. Although isolated and extremely close to border, ambiance of ranch was extremely relaxing with opportunity to separate oneself from the anxieties of business / workplace. Wranglers were really outstanding; particularly patient with guest lack of horseback riding experience but also sensitve... More

We stayed here two days as part of a bike tour with Sojourn. At first I was concerned about the remote location but that added to the experience. The close proximity to the border made for some interesting stories. The food was very good and the hospitality was terrific. Rooms were comfortable. The history of the place is quite interesting--check... More

Rancho De La Osa came as a referral to the two of us as the perfect get away. We work long hours in very stressful situations and needed a place that would offer a balance of complete down time and activities should we desire...along with great food. It was the BEST referral we could have ever hoped for. We LOVED... More

The experience was one of my favorites of all time, and I am passionate about travel, food, service, and attitudes because I have been in the hospitality business for years. The food was unsurpassed! The owners, Veronica... More

What an amazing time I had at Rancho de la Osa! It is a gem- this Southern Arizona Guest Ranch. The owners lovingly care for it and for all of their visitors! I am a single mom with three children (young teen and two in college). We went there for five days over Christmas, 2011 to experience a new tradition... More

My eleven year old daughter and I were very disappointed with this dude ranch. I have complained to the National Dude Ranch Association and I am in the process of trying to get my money back. First, Veronica did not disclose to us that we would be the ONLY guests staying at the ranch. It was more like staying at... More

This was our first holiday together and after the whirlwind of multi-family events an after-Christmas getaway at Rancho De La Osa sounded perfect to us...we were not disappointed! I love the desert in Arizona and we had visited Sedona and Tucson previously, but had not ventured south of Tucson. The Sonoran desert is truly beautiful and the ranch just fits... More
