RANCH Now
Picture this! It's you, in your blue jeans, all saddled up
ready to ride and check cattle for newborn calves on wide open rangeland over rolling
desert hills. You could now be a guest at the Flying E, a dude and cattle ranch where
informality comes as naturally as a summer rain and guests become one big family. Look at
that Arizona sky, those distant mountains ... this is quiet, peaceful, unhurried country.
Breathe the clean, smog-free air, feel the warm sun.
Once this was "gold-rush" country! Now the greatest treasures that guests carry away are happy memories of golden Arizona, Wickenburg and the Flying E. Come ... make your own memories with us!
We are the riding ranch! If you've come for the
horses, you won't be disappointed! Our horses are reliable, trailwise, and individually
selected by competent wranglers for both the experienced 
and the novice. Rides with wranglers are twice daily and once on Sundays.
If you need riding instructions, ask a real cowboy, he'll be glad to help. Use of a horse
is not included in your room rates.
Breakfast cookouts, lunch rides to scenic areas and chuck wagon feeds are regular events at the Flying E. Don't worry if you're a non-rider. We'll take you to the picnic spots!
Flying E is the ideal place for your "real" western vacation. It is located on a mesa at 2400 feet, just 4 miles west of Wickenburg, landmarked by the famous Vulture Peak, home of the historical Vulture Mine. You'll love our weather ... the climate is warm and dry, averaging in the mid-70's with clean, dust-free air. There is scarcely a day without sunshine and millions of stars light each brisk, invigorating night. Back to Top
Guest rooms surround the main lodge where you can enjoy
the spacious lounge, join in music, card games or just kick off your boots, relax and
watch TV. Ranch activities are fun for everyone! In addition to horses, one may enjoy
tennis, heated pool with hot spa, sauna-exercise rooms, shuffleboard, table tennis,
horseshoe pitch, outdoor chess, rock hounding and occasional
square dances in the barn loft. All this ...
or just be "lazy" in the sun.
Golf is available at Wickenburg Country Club or Los Caballeros Golf Club (18-Hole Championship Course) both close to the ranch.
The coffee pot is always on and the cookie jar full! You'll find that waiting for the chow bell is a favorite pastime and little wonder -- fresh air really sharpens the appetite! Meals here are delicious, bountiful and served up "family-style". Back to Top
Your room will be immaculate, comfortable and delightfully western with all the comforts of home ... including TV. Electrically heated and air-conditioned, each room provides the ideal starting place for your daily activities around the ranch or a quiet retreat for a lazy day and a restful night. All rooms have private baths, twin or king-size beds. Electric blankets ... too! Back to Top
