Family Tradition of Hospitality

Our venerable story dates back to 1948, when Dallas Gant, Sr., along with C.L. Maguire and Belford Howard, joined forces to lovingly build a dude ranch that could stand the test of time. Their dream was finally realized when Rancho de los Caballeros opened its doors to guests. Today the ranch is owned by Dallas' son, "Rusty" Gant, faithful to his father's philosophy of personal service above all else, carrying the torch of Rancho de los Caballeros' renown customer service and unique southwestern traditions for the next generations.  

The "Sun C" Brand

In the days when Rancho de los Caballeros ran cattle, our cattle brand was the "Sun C", which looks like a "C" with three rays of sunshine to represent The Ranch's three founding families. Today, the brand lives-on as a symbol of how family is at the heart of what we do, and it's reflected in the way we treat our guests like one of our own, whether in greeting you with a handshake and a smile, or making sure you have everything you need for the perfect stay.
