Special Events Services | Activities & Attractions | Golf | Bird Watching

Our staff is ready to arrange golf, mountain biking, guided hikes, horseback riding and bird watching for your family or group at your request.

We are pleased to offer you this additional information about the historic Rex Ranch Resort & Spa. We enjoy serving those who appreciate natural environments and we offer an experience of refreshing, unlimited natural surroundings in the historically rich Santa Cruz Valley of Southern Arizona—the perfect stop before heading into San Carlos, Mexico and other points. Native tribes and wilderness areas, mountain lions, jaguars, javalina, deer and great varieties of birds share this blend of geography. We have on staff a Birdwatching & Natural History Guide, and Madera Canyon and Buenes Aires Wildlife Preserve are two of the many interesting places that are minutes away.
