Where you’ll be
Apache Junction, Arizona, United States
​
Our Ranchito is located in an equestrian area of Apache Junction just a few miles from the Lost Dutchman State Park and Superstition Mountain trailhead.
You will see folks riding their horses past the property each day or see and hear horses on the surrounding ranches.
It's minutes from dirt bike riding, side-by-side excursions, hiking, biking, boating, kayaking, fishing, camping, shooting and trail blazing, in the magnificently stupendous Superstition Mountains and Tonto National Forest.
Minutes from several trailheads, 3 lakes, a ghost town, US 60 and Loop 202 freeways. 30 minutes from Phoenix Skyharbor and Phoenix Mesa Gateway Airports. Download the AllTrails app for information on all the amazing hiking in the area.
The property is NOT fenced and at rare times you may see wild animals around the property such as coyotes, javelinas, owls, lizards, scorpions, spiders, hawks and bobcats. Renters agree to exercise due diligence and be on the lookout for wild animals when using the property.
Getting around
You need a horse or car around here. There are state land trails across the street. You can take an easy, relaxing walk/hike of about two miles through the desert preserve, down to the grocery store or to get a bite to eat. Apache Junction does not have bus service so you will need a car, bike or Uber.
I checked the EV Charg-ER box on our profile. We have EV charg-ING, not a fancy charger station, thingy. There is an outdoor electrical outlet right next to the front door where you park so feel free to plug in there. That is what we use to do with our hybrid vehicle.
