Tanque Verde Ranch ~ Part II
Tanque Verde Ranch is an all-inclusive ranch resort and there is always something to do!! All activities including horseback riding, riding lessons, hikiing, biking, swimming, tennis, etc., are included in one price. Our main activity at the ranch centered around the horses and riding, but we also took advantage of the indoor & outdoor pools, the mountain-biking, ping- pong, hikes, nature talks and walks, and of courses, the campfire cookouts and just plain sitting under the cottonwood trees.
Although there is a TV Room at the range with a major-size TV, there are no TV's in rooms. Although a little difficult to get used to at first, the encourages everyone to make the most of the day time and night time activities outside of the rooms!
Included in the price are three-delicious meals each day plus buffets served in the central hacienda-style dining room, and the scheduled, fantastic campfire cookouts at the Cottonwood Grove, and breakfast rides up to The Homestead. In my opinion, the food was always very good and plentiful, and the Easter Brunch was exceptional! The only exception was for wine, beer and soft-drinks all of which were optional and offered at different venues.
Unique Quality: There are too wonderful features of the ranch to mention here. The children at the ranch seemed to be having the times of their lives! I especially enjoyed seeing how comfortable & confident the children were as they rode out on the trail every morning with their ponies, not a care in the world.
We visited during Easter, and I thought it was very special that the "Easter Bunny" visited the ranch on horseback! The ranch even arranged an Easter Egg Hunt for the children on the front lawn and the squeals of delight rang from all quarters.
