About the host

Hosted by Mindy J Hamblin

Host profile image
Working as ranchers in Arizona is more than just a job; it's a deep-seated commitment to a unique way of life and an unwavering dedication to the stewardship of the land. Our passion for ranching is intrinsically linked to the striking beauty and challenging conditions of the Arizona landscape, fostering a profound respect for the arid environment and its delicate ecosystems.
We have been a family-owned and operated ranch for over 100 years, and we would like to share some of the things we love about this way of life with you. Come and experience as much or as little of the Cowboy way of life as you would like with us at the Bunkhouse at the Ranch.

Why they chose this property

The quiet solitude of the Bunkhouse at the Ranch is profoundly amplified by the presence of its unblemished night sky. When day gives way to darkness, the tranquility moves from an acoustic experience to a cosmic one, creating an atmosphere of deep personal peace under a ceiling of infinite stars.

What makes this property unique

"The Bunkhouse at the Ranch" is a unique property that stands out from typical lodging options primarily by offering a genuine working ranch experience blended seamlessly with the comfort and quality amenities of a modern vacation rental. It elevates a simple stay into an immersive, authentic Western retreat, particularly those located in the unique landscapes of Arizona. Unlike properties that merely borrow Western decor, The Bunkhouse is situated on a real, operating cattle ranch.

Guests are not just viewing the landscape; they are living within the rhythm of ranch life. This includes hearing the sounds of the animals, witnessing the daily chores, and feeling connected to the property's agricultural purpose.

Many "Bunkhouse" properties are either historic structures used by cowboys or are custom-built using reclaimed, natural materials to honor that history. This rustic aesthetic provides a deeper sense of character than standard modern homes.

The necessary remoteness of a working ranch often ensures deep, quiet solitude and stunning, unpolluted night skies, making it a prime destination for stargazing, which is a key differentiator from resort areas.

Guests are welcome to board their horses on the ranch for an additional fee. Contact owners for information.
