CD and Jeanne developed a love of the desert southwest as newlyweds. There is nowhere else they would rather be, and they enjoy offering guests a personal opportunity to develop the same sort of connection. Jeanne is a consummate desert naturalist, with a wide lore of regional plants and animals, and enjoys practicing old-fashioned homesteading skills on the Ranch. CD is a computer and communications engineer, and an NRA certified instructor in pistol and rifle disciplines. They breed and sell mixed retriever puppies to adoptive families all across the US and Canada.

CD purchased this house in 2000

We love big sky, wide-open spaces, loyal and happy animal companions, an independent lifestyle, and a dark night sky full of bright stars. Our 150+ acre ranch, surrounded by open-range leaseholds, lets us live our dream every day. Wickenburg—a town widely rumored to have more horses than sedans—is the ideal location for lovers of the honest old-fashioned western country life. When we found our dream ranch, we were pleased to discover it included the Bunkhouse, allowing us to share our quiet, private retreat with dozens of old and new friends every year.

Our Ranch is secluded and private, yet immediately accessible on a major highway. It's a great place for relaxation, recharging, contemplation, or (for family visitors of Wickenburg's world-class therapy centers) even rehabilitation. Petting all our friendly animals is great for your blood pressure! Or, if you're more the action type, the Bunkhouse is the perfect central location for you to plan your extreme assaults on any of dozens of Arizona attractions from the Grand Canyon to the Yuma sand dunes, including the Rangers and Royals spring training games, the Prescott Rodeo, the Arizona State Fair, Salt River tubing, cowboy mounted shooting events at Ben Avery, and many more warm-country attractions!
