1. Spectacular prairie villa surrounded by mountains (from USD 103)

Wake up to the scenery of the morning sun slowly peeking through the mountains of Arizona while you sip a cup of warm milk or coffee. The livestock are also greeting the day their own way, with rooster crowing, chickens scratching and grazing, and goats prancing and bleating.

Back inside, you can fix up a hearty breakfast with the fully equipped kitchen. Bring your meal outside and enjoy it under the pergola. For the cold desert nights, you can also light up the fire pit and warm yourself while sipping some wine.

3. Fancy rancher's home in Daulton Ranch (from USD 85)

You’ll get to experience a bit of that homestead feed America’s pioneers had by staying in this gorgeous ranch cottage. Enjoy a fine outdoor meal on the patio, cooking up some open-flame favorites on the barbecue grill. There’s also a kitchenette with a microwave for preparing snacks and packed meals, as well as a mini-fridge for storing ingredients and drinks. Do note that there is no air-conditioning, so travelers averse to heat may want to visit in another season.

Daulton Ranch is a horse ranch, so you may see their herd roaming or grazing around the property. If you’re a fellow rancher or horse owner, they can also accommodate your steed if you’re traveling by horse or with horses.
