Just a short drive from the Grand Canyon west rim, this is a great base from which to visit Las Vegas (only two hours drive), Hoover Dam and the Skywalk, and to explore the Grand Canyon. The Grand Canyon Ranch Resort is steeped in history and located by Diamond Bar Springs, where evidence of Native American existence dates back to 1600BC. Set in 165 miles of desert wilderness, you will step back in time on this traditional working cattle ranch and get up close and personal with the way of life in the real Wild West.During your stay, take optional helicopter flights over the Grand Canyon with Heli USA Airways, horseback or wagon rides to see the bison - the icon of the west, historic museum tours and shoot at a western gun range; with cowboy-style entertainment daily and around the campfire at night, under the stars. You can also enjoy the centuries old experience of an overnight cowboy campout in the Arizona Mountains.
