Gila Hot Springs Ranch stands out as a unique destination due to its rich history and stunning natural surroundings, making it a perfect getaway for those seeking both relaxation and adventure. Family-owned and operated by the Campbell family since 1940, this ranch is a remnant of an old ranching community established in the 1880s by the Hills brothers. It also served as a military camp in the late 1800s, designed to protect local homesteaders. In 1929, Doc Campbell purchased the expansive 320-acre ranch after relocating to the area. He further enhanced the property by building Doc Campbell's Post in 1963, which continues to serve visitors today. The ranch offers overnight accommodations, a convenience store stocked with camping and picnic supplies, and gasoline, ensuring guests have everything they need for a comfortable stay. Today, Becky Campbell, Doc's daughter, upholds the family tradition of welcoming visitors to experience the breathtaking beauty of the Gila. Additionally, Ysabel, Doc's other daughter, along with her husband Paul, manages Doc's Trading Post, providing a charming spot for guests to explore local goods.
