Originally founded in the 1950's as a working cattle ranch, it was purchased in 2010 by the owners who spent the next four years obtaining a Conditional Use Permit designating the property as a Type I Minor Resort and completing the arduous Pima County development plan process. The owners then spared no expense in constructing, furnishing and decorating seven Santa Fe style luxurious guest casitas and a multi-purpose building, siting them for incredible views and maximum privacy. The four one-bedroom, one-bath casitas each have 915 square feet of living space with 220 square feet of covered porch.

The owners undertook the development of RCR after retiring from successful corporate careers, and have operated the business successfully as a lifestyle now entering their eighth year in business. Rental revenue from the guest casitas and the two or three venue events they accept each year, has more than covered the all of the business' operating expenses and taxes almost from inception. A quick review of their 100% five-star TripAdvisor reviews shows just how pleased guests are with the accommodations and service received at RCR. Unfortunately, with advancing age, the owners are unable to realize the property's full potential. Improvements approved by the CUP and DP include three additional casita buildings, a storage building, art studio, barn, game courts, and food and beverage facilities for the casitas. Additionally, the sixteen acres of contiguous vacant property bordering SNP included in the sale are independent of the DP and available for new construction and development.

Built in shelving/cabinetry and skylights were added in the Arizona Room, and Library/Den which was also expanded with the addition of a new rotunda card room. The entire roof was replaced and all new HVAC units installed in 2016. The highlight of the remodel was the addition of a new 640 square foot kitchen/prep-kitchen/pantry. Although the kitchen qualifies as commercial, it has an exquisite home-style vintage Tuscan design with exposed beams, full custom cabinetry, extensive granite counters and island, central copper farm sink, vintage plumbing fixtures, an Ilve six burner gas range with griddle and two electric ovens, custom breakfast nook, and 100 year old reclaimed barnwood floor.
