was there in about 2006 loved the CBP, wild burros, and cattle, on that six mile long dirt road ride in, and the view of Kitt mountain at sunset, not to forget the twilight blackhawks heading south also. Almost everyone carried a sidearm so you felt safe at the campground, what great memories.....
I watched Bob Wells UA-cam video on this ranch. It looks like a really great place. I don't retire for 2 more years from Western Oregon .Looking forward to some warm Sunny weather. I hope this place still has spots when I retire.
That desert night especially in the winter gets to freezing so don't think it's all sunshine over there in Arizona. I know, I used to live there for years on the outskirts of the main big city and there's only 2 big cities in Arizona and that's Tucson and Phoenix with all of its smaller cities.
Thank you for showing this beautiful sight I'm looking forward for this place I'm retired I live in Florida and I'm looking for a peaceful place I think this one is the best the owner is very nice I really grateful to you for showing this video peace and tranquility
We were at Caballo Loco 2021 - 22 (6) month winter season. Had a great time. We're heading back to our same site this October 2022 for season II. A whole herd of us from all over the states and more are returning: Ohio, New York, Israel, Shrilanka, Michigan, Arizona, Calufornia, Mexico and South Dakota. It's a beautiful property but a bit rough & harsh for your average camper.
I'm moving out there the 1st part of June.. I've got a 31' class a motor home.. I'm gonna have Hughes net. I've got a refrigerator in the RV. I'm going to get a swamp cooler. I need to charge my phones. And have a couple of lights.. Can anybody tell me how much solar I need.. Is there a portable unit that Give me enough power for what I need?
RED FLAG! 🚩 This might have been a good place when Bob Wells came and reviewed it, but things have dramatically changed. Lots are now postage stamp size. All new lot rentals are just sliver of what (pre-Bob Wells) would have been your full lot. New lots are uncomfortably small, cramped and quite ugly, dusty dirt patches carved into the hillside. The location is pretty but extremely remote. Watch for illegals crossing land. Water tastes very bad but I was told is tested and ok to drink however this was an old mining town and water likely has contamination from mine. I’m really not sure how the county can approve tripling capacity like this as there is no new sewer infrastructure to support this level of growth and land use. I wouldn’t be surprised if the county shut this down.
That's sad that the owner would damage the pleasant atmosphere of the ranch by shrinking lot size so drastically. I'm now thinking of crossing this place off my list of possible places to stay for a while.
@@larsturner310 I think this review is not correct in that lot sizes vary. If you want to get a better location lots are smaller; If you want a large lot it is more remote. So it's a trade-off. I hope everybody understands too that Caballo Loco Ranch is a rental only situation.
I plan of coming your way January 2023, I have a telescope I would like to use at my site, would there be a site available near the astronomy dome? If so what would the site rent for two months? when should I make a reservation. Thank you. Richard

@@keepitrealoriginal if you have to stay at the campground wen your husband is working I am afraid it’s to lonely.....mostly older people. No activity. And 1 hour drive to the shops.

Not a very welcoming place...sorry...I hope that doesn’t offend any desert dwellers...but deserts look grim, stark and barren. And if you hear all those howling sounds while u r trying to sleep then that would be very bad...
What did you expect? It’s in de middle of the Sonoran desert.......howling sounds are from coyotes they live in the desert! You was on the wrong place......go to Gilbert Ray campground and you find a nice place close to the city Tucson and a caretaking design campground.
@Robert Hersey I must say, I agree with O.P. ... I personally prefer more greenery, but I guess a brief visit in the desert is alright (doable) for me. I also like a cooler climate--50s temps is good to me, getting uncomfortable if above 65, 70s is considered hot for me.

My wife and I love it there! Been going there for years! It is what you make it! "Find your place in the sun"!
What’s the coldest time to go there ? I’m an odd ball and actually want to go when it’s at its coldest lol
Thanks for sharing, wanted to see what the drive in looked like and you had a video. Awesome job!!

I just seen Bob Wells video today 3/15/22..I thought the same thing you did..
Love Bob Wells
@@CottonWoodBlues same and same!
Bob only shows the good!
This place has way more downside than up
@@GratefulOverlander What is the bad please share I'm thinking about going there
I will be coming. Great prices. A nice warm place in the sun, beats living in a freezer in northern Michigan
Yes your right , im in weippe idaho at the moment and it is 🥶. In case you don't know where that is it is in northern idaho .

Old man told Bob Wells that “certainly school buses are welcome but told me on the phone that they are not welcome.

Great video and I absolutely love this music!!! So perfect for the scenery.
Beautiful desert scene, lovely Cactus and Palo Verde!
thanks for the drive through view of this amazingly beautiful place
Definitely check it out before you make plans to move here.
Great music!

Maybe I’ll see you !! Heading out there sometime this year from NJ …! I’ll be in a black Toyota Tundra ! William Kazmarck
Sounds great
I heard they raised prices, to 250 a month no utilities. Is that true. Wish I new if this is true r not.
Seven minutes of looking at a dirt road, jeeesh
😂😂😂😂
Our first visit there was in 1980, back when it was Treasure/Rockhound ranch... :)
wonder if anything left to hunt?
Really a nice job on this video!
All the splashing does not line up with what we are seeing, lol
I thought same thing. I lived in Tucson for ten years. Dry as a bone. lol
😂
Old dudes with earrings… Scary… Lol
Awesome!
Cool video...artful.
I am wondering what the sound of waves splashing on a shore were. I live on the east coast, and that sound is my idea of heaven.
Good work!
No way in hell would I drive my motorhome all the way to "Nothing" over that dirt & gravel trail!
It’s not so bad as you think, wen you slowly drive it’s okay. The campground takes very good care of this road. It’s only 6 m not 60….
Told me nuttin!!

@@alicehallam7949 Thanks for the clarification, Alice.
What's it like to stay there?
Another channel had an interview with the owner. Go to CheapRVLiving.
The owner said it's so peaceful there people come to spend their last days there. I guess that says it all.
Go back to 1:31. Just saw a stash in the Bush left side.
