Nancy very energetic and enthusiastic about her property. Lots of room, very well equipped in every way you can imagine. Washer/dryer, great kitchen, every bedroom has on-suite bath. On site grounds keeper for any help needed. Freedom to change or rearrange if needed. Wood fireplace has strong smell, not unpleasant, but if you have asthma or sinus issues could be a problem. Lovely grounds with many gorgeous desert specimens, cacti and trees, including citrus. Loved the rooftop terrace with amazing views. If you like new age spiritualism, you will like the gardens. I was not a fan. Convenient to grocery and interstate.

What a wonderful experience we had at this ranch. Nancy is so accommodating. we had an amazing stay. The grounds are great, the pool was perfect, and the house is very eclectic. We had a group of nine women for a retreat and had Nancy cater breakfast. We also did a murder mystery party the night before. The whole weekend was perfect

We are a family of 8 that stayed at Wild Purple Ranch for 2 weeks. We come from Norway and have stayed in Tucson many years ago, and would like to re-experience Tucson and the Sonoran desert. We wanted to stay close to the city, and still get a feeling of the desert. We got much more than we hoped for. From the minute we met Nancy we felt at home. The Wild Purple Ranch is esthetically equipped and has a relaxing atmosphere. The children loved the hostess, pool, animals, and the exciting vegetation. The children already want to go back! Nancy is really also a perfect companion for the adults. We all agree that if we get the chance to go back to Tucson the Wild Purple Ranch and Nancy will be our first priority!

We knew we would be in for a treat, but no pictures or descriptions could prepare us for how truly special this ranch is. The fabulous furnishings/artwork, the coziness, the unbelievable beautiful setting, the accommodating kitchen, the great pool, the amazing views, riding horses, getting massages, the music selection and the lovely host were all a real treat. We had 10 women firefighters stay from around the country and everyone was super impressed with EVERYTHING! There is plenty of room to gather and play as well as room to get away and be by yourself. The house itself cannot be explored in a day or two = it has so much detail and character. The meditation gardens are very special. We did horseback riding, hiking, massages and loved that we could cook just like we were at home (its a very well stocked kitchen). The pool is a great size and very comfortable. Once we got there, no one left - we all just relaxed and enjoyed the company and surroundings. This really is an ideal retreat for friends and family. Tucson has much to offer, but once you get to the ranch, there is really no reason to leave as it offers all you need. The entire place has such great energy and I will definitely make it back for a much longer stay. It's one of the most amazing places I have ever stayed at!
