What do the classic western film Winchester 73, the George Clooney movie Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, and the 2007 Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue have in common? Major parts of each of these productions were shot at White Stallion Ranch. The 3,000-acre dude ranch outside Tucson, Arizona, has served as the set for dozens of movies and television shows over the years. Western movie stars, including Gene Autry, Jimmy Stewart, and James Arness, have saddled up for films shot at the ranch. White Stallion Ranch is still a popular location for reality shows, commercials, and even rock videos. And while the ranch has hosted some memorable productions, its real specialty is hosting memorable horseback vacations. Whether it's loping across the Arizona desert on horseback, chasing cattle, or simply savoring the warm desert sunshine, White Stallion Ranch is the place to relax and recharge. With an excellent stable of horses, a spirit of warm Western hospitality, and accommodations that attract guests from all over the world, White Stallion Ranch will make you feel like a star.
