This was our second visit to McDonald’s Ranch, and we absolutely love it! The scenery is breathtaking, making for a beautiful and peaceful ride through the desert. The horses are incredibly well-trained, making it an enjoyable experience for riders of all skill levels. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what they do. Our guide, Lauren, was amazing—so sweet, knowledgeable, and made our ride an absolute delight. She ensured we were comfortable and made the experience even more enjoyable with her kind and positive attitude. If you’re looking for a fantastic horseback riding experience in Arizona, McDonald’s Ranch is the place to go. We can’t wait to come back!

Thank you Peyton, Adam, and Tanner for taking care of me and making it such a wonderful experience for a solo rider. The ranch is beautiful and the horses even more so!! 10/10 recommend!

This is a must experience, not fast pace but really nice horses and team that manage. Lots of horses.?the one hour tour is more than enough due to horses walking slow. Very nice for a family as well. Great nature scenery as well

Had the opportunity to check out the ranch yesterday and boy was it fun. From the second you step foot on the ranch, it feels like you jump back in time. The property well maintained preserving that old time western feel. The horses seemed so happy and healthy. I got paired up with Clifford. I was stoked. He kept me honest on the ride and I learned A LOT. No day dreams…. At least not yet. Respect and attentiveness seemed to be the trick. Thank you for the awesome experience. Shout out Kyle, pocket chicken (Dawnielle), and Clifford, of course.

What a delightful place for wholesome family fun. We enjoyed seeing the horses and the petting zoo. A big space to run around and play games. Perfect place for unique pictures if you are from out of town. A must do for young kids.
