La Hacienda Chuparosa

6 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents4 acres · Tucson, AZ
When my husband and I were dating in NY we confessed our mutual desire to get back "home" to the west. It made me fall in love with him even faster. So when we married we moved to Washington DC knowing that in time we would make it west. 5 years later, when the traffic and the politics has taken its toll, we made a trip to Tucson and fell in love with this charming property that exudes all the beauty and grace of the Sonoran Desert. We looked at each other as we walked around looking at the stunning Mtn. Views and the mesquite fence and knew we were finally "home." I've always adored the SW Hummingbirds and wanted to name the property La Hacienda Chuparosa. When we moved in, for the first week, every morning a hummingbird was sipping nectar from one of our plants in the front yard. We knew it was meant to be. So we added a couple of horses to our dream, built some stalls, and now are ready to welcome you to La Hacienda Chuparosa. We know you will find the same magic here that we do.

Grand Canyon Wrigley Ranch Cottage

1 site · Lodging10 acres · Parks, AZ
Your 1b, 1ba Cottage comes fully stocked with all basic amenities like, soaps, toothpaste, towels, dishes, silverware, pots & pans, a few spices, sugar, coffee, hot chocolate and includes a dual-heated (his/hers), King bed and a pellet stove with a backup gas heater. The Cottage sits on 10 acres+, unlike 1-2 acre or less, packed areas like Kachina Village, Mountain Aire, Baderville, Doney Park, or Sherwood Forest, which are tightly packed neighborhoods. These “city neighborhood styled areas” are NOT desirable; mixed communities with nice houses and junk properties intermingled and virtually no land or easy forest/wildland access. At The Cottage, you will not be in a suburban or semi-rural neighborhood. You’ll be staying far from local cities. This is a free-standing, remote, deep-in-the forest place with a gorgeous view of the famous Spring Valley and mountain views of Mt. Sitgreaves. Walking, hiking, biking, snowshoeing and cross country skiing start at your door. The Cottage is a separate home, with living room, kitchen, bedroom, bath, & dining nook. Kitchenware and utensils, salt, pepper & some spices stocked for your convenience. The Cottage is nestled in 40ft-75ft pines, the perfect place for a weekend getaway deep in the Kaibab National Forest. Whether you’re looking to beat the heat of The Valley, Havasu, Tucson, So California or Vegas, or for a serene trip, a romantic getaway, or an adventure vacation, or even a honeymoon, this is the place. You'll love the "no air conditioning needed" comfort of The Cottage. Open, crack or close windows to adjust your room temp. This property was initially developed in 1990 by the Wrigley Family. Yes. Wrigley Field (Chicago Cubs), Wrigley Chewing Gum. Known by legacy as “The Wrigley Ranch,” it’s the last vestige of the once incredibly expansive, former land holding of one of America's most prestigious families. Horseback Riding available on site, guided or unguided riding right here all year 'round! Also Target Shooting & 4wd Tours are usually available March 15 - Nov 15! (Weather restrictions may apply.

However, we do have clear and efficient plans for any unexpected emergency. We have many motion sensor night lights. Free amenities include pellet stove fuel & one free 12 pack of split firewood per stay for the fire pit (as long as no fire restrictions are in effect). BBQ tools included. Add'l firewood at only $6 per 12 add'l pieces. No Wi-Fi because of satellite bandwidth limitations/costs. No cell phone reception because you're too deep in the woods! To use your cell phone, you'll need to drive out to the prairie about 2 miles down the road. Tarry on out to our pond and enjoy sitting on our glider/bench while the ducks frolic. If you like, bring fresh fruits and veggies to hand feed all the free-grazing birds. Horses love carrots and apples! Take the goats for a walk. Walk freely on our 10 acre property plus its 30 acre add’l fenced forest land or just head out onto walking/ski trails to Spring Valley Tank where elk, antelope and deer get their water. Continue your hike on 1000s upon 1000s of acres on the Sitgreaves mountain range or Spring Valley Knoll. Fishing at local lakes most Spring, Summer and Fall.

Take a hike or dirt bicycle ride to Shulz Pass and see it's gorgeous high mountain meadows about 1 mile past Spring Valley Tank.
