Making the reservation was very simple. I called in and made the reservation over the phone. They send you an email reminder and two text reminders leading up to your reservation. Upon arrival and paying the $7 parking fee, drive to the horse staging area. You'll meet the horses and complete payment there. This experience was very fun. They have other types of riding experiences as well on their website. Remember to support your local businesses!

Fun rustic getaway!…read more Saguaro Lake Guest Ranch offers a beautiful, nature-centric setting within easy reach of Phoenix. From the horseback riding to the kayaking and hiking, there are activities to fill numerous days. The launch site for those are all on the property, and there's a shuttle return for the kayaking, which keeps it simple and enjoyable. We also appreciated the close proximity of local recreation areas, for taking in views of the Salt River horses, and to Saguaro Lake (the Desert Belle wine cruise is great). The lodge itself is more of a four-star moment. It's understandable that the cabins are old (built for the construction of the Stewart Dam), but some general maintenance and a little TLC both inside and out would be helpful. For instance, a shower knob fell off in my hand, the curtain rods were crooked, a broken hook was on the door, the outdoor benches and chairs were dirty, and there were weeds and trash around the cabin perimeter. On the flip side, the staff is friendly, the main lodge offers homespun charm, the Bulldog rock formations are gorgeous, and the grounds in the main courtyard are an inviting place to indulge in the lodge's "easy living" motto. Beyond that, the food deserves its own special nod -- outstanding at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with rave reviews from all. That said, it would be nice to offer individual seating at dinner instead of the "single long table" ranch-style service. It can be awkward, or at least less relaxing, to sit across from strangers at each dinner each evening and make generic small talk. Overall, a wonderful getaway under starry skies!

BACHELORETTE PARTIES BEWARE Our group of 5 girls booked this…read moretour during my bachelorette party. When we arrived, the manager named Lottie pulled out a scale and said she didn't believe our weights on the form. We are all girls in our 20s that are nowhere near the weight limit of 220lbs. She made us all say our weights out loud, threatened to weigh us infront of everyone, and said it was "for the safety of the horses". Half of us left in tears because of how hostile and unprofessional Lottie was. If you are on a bachelorette do not come here unless you want a 90lb miserable woman to humiliate you & your friends for no reason. Lottie if you're reading this, I hope being mean to young and post partum women makes you feel better about your miserable, single, and childless life. The guides & horses were wonderful but this woman needs to be fired.

Immediate good vibes only! Now let's talk about the real reason we came... the PRODUCE When I say abundance, I mean piles on piles of fresh fruits and veggies looking like they just clocked in from the farm that morning. And the prices? Let's just say my wallet didn't flinch, and that's rare these days! But wait--it's not just fruits and veggies. Oh no, they got the goodies too: Locally made jams, jellies, fresh juices, pickled EVERYTHING, and dehydrated snacks that had me acting real brand new in those aisles. I had to stop myself from grabbing one of everything like I was on a cooking show with no budget The place itself? Clean, organized, easy to navigate--no chaos, no confusion, just grab your basket and go off. Listen... before you run to one of them big name grocery stores and spend your whole paycheck on "non-gmo-ish" and "organic-ish" produce, do yourself a favor and pull up here first.

First, we grabbed some cookies, cake, and conchas from the bakery spot as you walk into the store. Then we went to the counter where you can get hot food to eat in store or to take home. There was a line, of course, as others know of this great eatery, too. Usually, we would just get some street tacos and maybe a burrito, but this time we ordered a combo plate where you get rice, beans, a meat (we chose pollo), salsa, cilantro and onions, and tortillas. Under $20 and enough food to feed four. We hadn't ever signed up for their app, but because of their digital punch card which keeps track of the aguafrescas you purchase, we signed up. After grabbing our food, my wife got a 32 oz. cucumber and I grabbed a watermelon. So delicious. Already planning our next Sunday lunch.

Atmosphere 5/5 This is a clean, well maintained and stocked grocery store on par with the big chain stores with an emphasis on Hispanic food. Food 5/5 From canned, fresh, dry goods to frozen they have it all and then some. I enjoy their produce and fresh meat departments, and I can't leave without some of their on-site made fresh corn tortillas! Food Court 5/5 I love Hispanic foods and the foodcourt for eating in or taking out is a good value. This is authentic and not Taco Bell. I've enjoyed almost everything I've tried, however tonight I wasn't loving the green chile pork. It was more flavor (recipe seasonings) that didn't agree with me but if I don't try and explore options less familiar to me I might miss out discovering my new best dish! Service 5/5 Language could have some impact on your service experience but there are many employees who speak or understand English. I've found those who don't speak English are still willing to find another employee to assist so kudos Ranch market! Here's to exploring cultures and food my friends-SYOY!

2/28/26: it was disappointing eating lunch at The Farm. Years ago we had eaten at Quiessence and…read morehad a lovely time. Wanting to try another of their restaurants before the ungodly heat arrived, we decided to stop in for lunch. Parking: can be a bit nerve wracking, especially parking in the dirt lots east of the place. You have to walk across 32nd St & if you know Phoenix drivers, this can be dangerous. There is a pedestrian light now, though, so that helps -- but oddly enough, there's no "walk" signage. It's merely a blinking yellow light for north- sound-bound traffic so you have to pray to the universe drivers are paying attention & actually stop for you. Ordering: a bit odd. The main door we went in was more the middle door that didn't really take you to the beginning. There's a drink station then the food station. We skedaddled to the right of the main doors for the drink order, only to discover there's another door that people walk through to place orders. So we joggled w/ another customer trying to figure out who was there first. It honestly felt like a school cafeteria, a bit chaotic, as well as cramped. The patio was pretty large & well shaded, but it was also full -- and this particular day also the ONLY SHADE. We were left to sit at one of their many tables on the grounds with no shade. Food: not worth the $77 we paid. I get it's a working farm, & though we try to support local as much as possible, the food we ordered was not good enough that we will stop by again. The strawberry fields salad was a typical salad, no wow factor there. The Italian sammy was dry. There was a minuscule amount of some kind of dressing on it, but def not enough. Dessert: red velvet whoopie pie was so overpriced it's not funny. If it tasted great, I wouldn't complain...it did not taste great. The pecan pie was abysmal; not enough filling and very bland. Two "specialty" drinks, a salad, a sandwich, & two small desserts, for $77? No, sorry, not again.
