Ranchito Paraiso: Pet-friendly Oasis in the Desert

Hello All!

I'd like you to meet Kassandra, a gorgeously and lovingly updated Royals International Emissary 40ft RV, nicknamed “the micro mansion,” a pet-friendly elegant desert getaway in a secluded ranch setting, yet just 3/4 mile north of I-10. Enjoy high speed Wifi, peaceful views, free parking, and a majestic agave garden that attracts dozens of species of birds. Come here to work remotely, create, or relax. Or why not a combination of all three?

If you choose to book, thank you for supporting a female-owned small business. Each booking helps care for our rescue animals (donkeys, potbelly piggies, goats, dogs, and a peacock). Please note: We do not accept bookings for longer than 14 days.
We are a farm stay, and out donkeys, goats, piggies, and peacock roam freely during the day, unless guests request they be contained. Keep pets on leash at all times and please don't feed the donkeys and peacock.

You will love Kassandra! She is more than an RV – she is an experience! Spacious and elegant, she can sleep 4 guests. We welcome up to two well-mannered pets. Just three minutes north of the freeway, but seemingly a world away, you will be able to enjoy our desert sanctuary with all the comforts of home, wrapped in a colorful Mexican blanket snuggled by the firepit with your favorite beverage for a relaxing night under the stars.

Breakfast items wait for you in the fridge so that you can enjoy a leisurely morning in one of three outdoor seating areas (or you are welcome to walk around the land, sit on a bench by the corrals, and watch the donkeys and goats munch on their hay while you sip your morning beverage). We provide:

 Freshly ground organic coffee (decaf also available) and a selection of
teas and honey
 Half and half, organic sugar
 Sparkling water and our delicious Artesian well water
 English muffins, butter, French jam, cheese, and fresh local free range
organic eggs.
 A pantry stocked with some food items in case you arrive late and
restaurants are closed (I do suggest stopping by Safeway to pick up a
rotisserie chicken or pizza and salad fixings – an easy meal with more
time to enjoy the space and relax).

Right away, you will notice Kassandra’s character and charm, from her artistic interior to her desert agave garden and surrounding mountain views. Kassandra is a well-appointed home:

 High Speed Wifi
 Two couches convert to two XL twin beds and the bedroom sports a
comfy queen-sized memory foam LUCID mattress (with 1200 count
freshly laundered Egyptian cotton sheets).
 Washer and dryer onsite with laundry strips and Mrs. Meyers Dryer
Sheets.
 Smart TV with complementary Hulu, Netflix, and Prime
 Fresh, plush towels, shampoo, shower gels, lotions, soaps, conditioners,
and more.
 Fully stocked kitchen with all you need to cook your own stovetop
meals:
o Organic extra virgin olive oil, aged balsamic, a variety of spices
o Pots and pans and all you need to cook a meal as if you were at home.
o Electric pizza oven, toaster, drip coffee pot, dishwasher, microwave,
electric kettle, full-sized fridge and indoor dining area for five that
doubles as a workspace with stunning views over the pond and
Mesquite bosque. Mesquite BBQ available upon request - we provide
the wood.


If you are on the road looking for a brief two night stopover while heading to another destination or coming to our Ranchito for a peaceful extended stay to enjoy local attractions, you will truly enjoy the vibe. Our guests have stated repeatedly that their stay on the Ranchito is a memorable, unique experience.

If you book through instant book and plan an instant arrival, I will need a two-hour window If you contact me after regular check-in hours (4pm). Kassandra is not rustic, she is elegant, and as an eco-conscious space, the bathroom features a Swedish Separett State-of-the-Art odorless dry toilet, not a flush toilet, which is very simple to use. Longer stays will require the toilet being serviced every 5-7 days.

Ranchito Paraiso has beautiful views and country living in a ranch setting, although the town of Benson is but two miles away. We have ample free parking for multiple vehicles with room for UHauls, trailers, and more.
The San Pedro golf course with Benson City Grille and dog-friendly patio is just around the corner. The concept for Ranchito Paraiso is to be a retreat/sanctuary for life voyagers, digital nomads, artists, writers, poets, musicians, composers, yogis, dancers, rescue animals, and kind folk.

If you are traveling with horses, cows or livestock and have your own portable panels for a temporary corral, you are welcome to set them up on the property. There are trails to ride in the immediate vicinity.

Thank you for reading and we hope to see you here!

Cheers,
