Great Time Once Again
We’re a group of eight men ranging in age from 72 to 90 and this is our fourth time staying here. Like in the past, this was the perfect setting for our homebase as we enjoyed nearby, restaurants and sites in Tucson. We also love the indoor and outdoor generous meeting spaces as well as using the hot tub. We definitely recommend it and will be soon booking for our next year‘s visit.

Surprise Bathroom Arrangement
The house is very spacious and met our needs. The grounds outside were very nice. Kendra is very accommodating. The kitchen is nice and had most everything we needed. Our biggest surprise was the second bathroom in the master bedroom. The shower door in that bathroom kept falling off, so essentially we had three bathrooms to use instead of four. When you say it is five bedrooms and four bathrooms, you should explain that two bathrooms are in one of the bedrooms.

Absolutely perfect
Host was extremely helpful and responsive. House was perfect for a small family reunion. All beds were comfortable, kitchen was wonderful to work in with plenty of space to cook and keep food in large refrigerator. Table seating was ample of the 12 of us and there was a very large, comfortable sofa in front of the large screen TV. The grounds were well maintained and a gardener was on the property. We didn't use the two hot tubs or the outdoor kitchen, but both looked wonderful. I would highly recommend this property. It was a joy to be there.

Pleasant stay at Horse Thief Ranch
We had a pleasant weeklong stay at the ranch main house. The check in process was simple and the place was set up to be quite user friendly. The house does have a couple of quirks, like one of the guest bathrooms being inside the master suite (which has a different master bathroom), and the only access to that guest bathroom being through the master suite door. The guest bathrooms are dated in general. But overall the place has a good amount of room, the expected rustic ambience, and our group had an enjoyable stay.

SO MUCH FUN
Horse Thief Ranch is such a special place. First, Kendra and Keith are lovely people. Then, the property is beautifully decorated with fascinating pieces of art, cool furnishings and comfortable beds. Our family of eight could spread out or longe together in the hot tub, which we did many times. The property is located close to all the activities that interested us, such as the Saguaro National Park, Colossal Cavern, downtown, etc etc. We loved Horse Thief Ranch and couldn’t recommend it more.
