HISTORY
Nestled in country that withstood the Spanish Conquistadors, Apache Indian warriors, early explorers, cowboys, prospectors, miners, gamblers, gunfighters, and lawmen, Tombstone was founded by Ed Schiefflelin, a prospector and army scout based out of Fort Huachuca. When friends and fellow scouts learned that Ed had been out surveying the surrounding area for possible ore samples they told him that, “The only rock you’ll find out there will be your Tombstone!” Ed discovered a rich seam of silver ore in 1877, a strike that quickly attracted other miners to the area and led to Ed founding the town in 1879 naming it “Tombstone”. (Be sure to visit the Schieffelin Monument on the Ranch, it is Ed’s gravesite.)

DINING
We serve three delicious meals daily, all with a home-cooked, hearty western style. We make our selections from favorite family recipes, based on what’s in season, to ensure each meal is made with the freshest ingredients. Instead of à la carte dining, you will enjoy our Chef’s Choice each evening. Breakfast and lunch offer a variety of options to suit all tastes. Our Special Chuck Wagon breakfast will likely be the best breakfast you’ve ever tasted by a campfire!

HORSEBACK RIDING
The dramatic landscape surrounding the ranch was and in many ways still is the real wild west and our rides take you there. Ride by ancient Native American Petroglyphs, abandoned Railroad grades and trestles, forgotten mines, and old prospector’s monuments. Whether you are an experienced rider or a complete beginner we have rides for everyone. In our herd, we have horses for different levels of rider and we try hard to match you to a horse that will make your vacation special.
