About Sunglow Ranch

There’s no place like Sunglow … In the southeastern corner of Arizona where I-10 laces across the desert and through the hills like a ribbon, there is "heaven on earth" waiting to be discovered. It's close to the Arizona-New Mexico line, and about 45 minutes south of I-10 toward Mexico. Nestled among the foothills of the mystical Chiricahua Mountains, with their peaks reaching to the heavens, is Sunglow Ranch. Those in the know say it is "where the universe meets the earth," where the old oak forest and native grasses embrace the guests as they drive down that last mile of winding, gravel road. Most visitors are overwhelmed with the natural beauty, the cool mountain air (at an elevation of 5,400 feet) and the the impressive transformation of the continuously upgraded ranch.

Like a phoenix rising from a wild and chaotic beginning … on the same land where the likes of Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday rode 'hell bent for leather' across the valley floor, then with their horses lathered and heaving, climbed up over the peaks which eventually dropped them down into New Mexico and points beyond. A land where the spirits of Geronimo and his band of Apaches still roam at will, and where Johnny Ringo came to his final resting place. Today, Sunglow Ranch, while proud of its history, has gently washed the facade away, exposing itself as the jewel of the Chiricahuas.

Located on 400 pristine acres and backed up against 300,000 acres of national forest, the ranch is small and intimate. There are eleven beautifully designed casitas, many with murals by Tucson artist, Freia Ramsey. Some casitas have fireplaces, and all have their own theme and patios with spectacular views. It is also the home of the charming Sunglow Cafe.

There is no pretense at Sunglow Ranch. Here, in a beautiful array of rich warm colors, and attended to by our friendly staff, everyone kicks back and relaxes.
