REAL LIFE. ONLY BETTER. Tucked away in the cozy desert mountains, a short drive north of Phoenix’s urban congestion, is a relaxing place with a freeing spirit where real life becomes the life people yearn for. Much more than a place to live, Wickenburg Ranch is a lively adult community that embraces its alluring natural landscape while providing one-of-a-kind, 5-star resort amenities like an award winning golf course and a 9-hole course, luxury spa, fine dining, saloon, and plenty more worth experiencing.

With unrivaled offerings and personalized homes from the mid-$200s to $900s+, Wickenburg Ranch is close enough to live away from it all.

Welcome to Wickenburg For newcomers to Wickenburg or seasoned visitors, the Wickenburg Chamber of Commerce and Visitor Center can answer nearly anything a traveler wants to know about the town and surrounding area. Located at 216 N. Frontier Street, in the heart of historic downtown, the Visitor Center is housed in the restored Santa Fe Railroad Depot.

R

obsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mining World, a Western Destinations property, invites only the most adventurous explorers to relive the Old West through the eyes of a mining town. Expansive collections of mining equipment, memorabilia, vintage and antique items dot the landscape, inviting visitors to venture inside for a peek into the past.

Sit in the chair where Wyatt Earp received a shave and a haircut. Immerse your senses in the dust and grime of countless by-gone days of shopping at the local mercantile.

Break out your hat and boots and go for a pleasure ride through one of the largest saguaro forests in the Sonoran Desert. If you still have yer boots on, hike up into the cliffs to see ancient Apache Yavapai petroglyphs.

And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave town without dry-panning for gold dust in the placer mine operation, just off the mine tailings under red-rocked cliffs.

Have lunch at the Desert Rose CafĂŠ before you go, and be sure to come again. The town changes its looks about every six months, so come back often.

Wickenburg is home to the wild, wild west, and with that comes ghost stories and theories from back in the day that have been told throughout generations. Wickenburg Legends and Ghost Tours is sharing those stories and tales with community members, tourists and anyone else who stops by who wants the hear unedited history of this small town and witness the unex-

plainable.

Wickenburg Legends and Ghost Tours began about 8 years ago when mother and son Gloria and Scottie were caregivers working with hospice. They heard stories told by those who had lived in Wickenburg all their lives, beginning when it was a small mining town. Gloria and Scottie wanted to be able to pass on all the tales they heard and help people get a better understanding of Wickenburgâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s past. With the encouragement of Scottieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sister, Heather Taylor, Wickenburg Legends and Ghost Tours began.

A typical tour begins at the Wickenburg Chamber of Commerce, and continues on to other historic buildings and monuments around town.

The tour makes stops at places such as the old Texas Hotel, Jail Tree and Calvary outpost.

Gloria, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Madame Mariahâ&#x20AC;? and Scottie, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Razin Kaneâ&#x20AC;? tell the tales of each building with spirit and enthusiasm. Adventure-seekers can choose from three stages of the tour. An introductory tour involves history and ghost stories, while the second stage focuses on ghost stories. The third tour is geared toward professional ghost hunters who want to search for spirits and ghosts with their own equipment.

By Patsy Root Reporter/Photographer Many years ago, the grandmother of the Bedoian family wove rugs on an ancient loom and sold the rugs in small villages of Istanbul. She started in the business as an orphan girl, trained in the art to make money for the orphanage, and carried the craft throughout her adult life. It became something she did with pride and passion.

This passion was passed down to her children and grandchildren, and now her grandson Victor Bedoian shares the beauty of handmade rugs with others through his rug store.

A strong work ethic is also being passed down to Bedoianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s children and grandchildren at their coffee shop, Bedoianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bistro in downtown Wickenburg.

Nestled behind the Bistro sits a shop full of beautiful handmade rugs, along with the antique loom used all those years ago by Bedoianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grandmother. In that modest store can be found the largest assortment of rugs made of silk, WKH Ă&#x20AC; QHVW ZRRO DQG FRWWRQ %HGRLDQ LV SDVVLRQDWH DERXW KHOSLQJ RWKHUV XQGHUVWDQG WKH Ă&#x20AC; QH DUW RI UXJ ZHDYLQJ DQG

UXJV LQ :LFNHQEXUJ is quick to answer questions about the varying degrees of quality. He and his wife Kristy recently returned from a buying trip to those small villages in Turkey, Pakistan and India, and after all these years have perfected their knowledge of prices and quality of the rugs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you think you can buy a better rug for a better price on your own from a vendor, good luck!â&#x20AC;? Bedoian said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They can see you coming a long way off and they will always charge an American more than someone like me.â&#x20AC;?

Bedoian enjoys the buying trips, but gets the most enjoyment from passing on those acquisitions to local buyers who are looking for beautiful rugs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rug making has been in my family for so many generations,â&#x20AC;?

Wickenburg is steeped in history, and for visitors curious about schooldays of times past, Garcia Little Red Schoolhouse is the place to see.

Located in front of the Bashasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; plaza at 245 N. Tegner St., the schoolhouse has been standing at the site since 1905 when townspeople raised $1,600 and constructed the quaint, manicured piece of Americana presently standing.

Garcia schoolhouse has retired from its usefulness as a schoolhouse and is now home of the Wickenburg Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cultural Organization (WCO), offering piano, viola and violin lessons for children (and the occasional adult).

In addition, it is an historic site where one can see desks, books and a variety of other antique items used during that time period, plus many photographs and yearbooks of children who attended the school. .DWK\ .HOOH\ ZKR KDV EHHQ IDLWKIXOO\ NHHSLQJ WKH KLVWRU\ RI the schoolhouse for nearly a decade, enjoys greeting visitors who either attended the school or had friends and family who did. ´, VWDUWHG D ERRN RI WKRVH ZKR ZHQW WR VFKRRO KHUH Âľ VDLG .HO OH\ ´7KH\ FRPH LQ DQG Ă&#x20AC; OO RXW D TXHVWLRQQDLUH DQG , WDNH WKHLU picture and put it in the book, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun for them to look in it and see if they know anyone.â&#x20AC;? $FFRUGLQJ WR .HOOH\ PRVW RI KHU GRFXPHQWDWLRQ KDV EHHQ IURP those who attended the school and recognized friends from her vast collection of photos.

Visit Henry Wickenburgâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s historic home If founding father Henry Wickenburg could see his town today, he would undoubtedly be pleased.

After all, it was he who according to historical accounts discovered gold in this area, and later gave root to the town by donating 160 acres deeded to him by President Rutherford B. Hayes. In addition to providing the land to establish the town, the German immigrant granted the railroad an easement so tracks could be laid, was a judge, a postmaster, a census taker, and sat on the school board. In addition, he was a member of the Seventh Territorial Legislature for Arizona.

Our founding father also served on the claims committee, roads and ferries committee and the mining committee, according to Wickenburg Historical Preservation Society (WHPS) President Cindy Thrasher. Wickenburgâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s small home still stands at 225 S. Washington St. In 1903 Wickenburg built the three-room house by the railroad tracks. He lived there until his death by a gunshot wound to the head in 1905. $OWKRXJK LW ZDV DVVXPHG WKH ZRXQG ZDV VHOI LQĂ LFWHG WKHUH was plenty of motive for murder. Some never believed he shot himself, and the controversy over whether or not Wickenburg was murdered remains to this day. Many say that Wickenburg died penniless â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a motive for suicide. But according to Thrasher, he and early pioneer Jack Swilling had claims to mines in Black Canyon

City, and shortly before he died Wickenburg had sold them for $25,000.

Angela Hutchison Hammer, who was a journalist in Wickenburgâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time, wrote: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Henry Wickenburg was murdered and nobody did anything about it.â&#x20AC;?

Dr. Charles Genung, a friend and business associate of Wickenburgâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s never believed he committed suicide. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Be aware that Henry Wickenburg was not capable of suicide,â&#x20AC;? stated Genung, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and I defy anybody who thinks so.â&#x20AC;?

After his death, the house stood vacant until 1913, when it was sold to John and Mary Boetto, Italian immigrants who settled in Wickenburg in 1903. Mary died in the house in 1945, and John SDVVHG LQ )RU PDQ\ \HDUV WKH KRXVH DQG :LFNHQEXUJ¡V nearby gravesite fell into disrepair. Then in 2006, the Town of Wickenburg sold it to the WHPS, including eight acres that included the cemetery where Wickenburg was buried.

Both properties have been restored and placed on the National Registry of Historic Places and the painstaking work on Wickenburgâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house earned the Governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Heritage Honor Award (one FHUWLĂ&#x20AC; FDWH JLYHQ WR WKH :+36 DQG RQH JUDQWHG WR 7KUDVKHU SHUVRQ ally), and the Project of the Year Award.

Golf in Wickenburg?

They sprouted out of the desert in 1949, 1979, 2008 and 2016. Now resident and visiting golfers have four choices to enjoy the sport year-round.

Let’s stroll through the different venues starting with the original...

Los Caballeros Golf Club Los Caballeros Golf Club presents semi-private golf in spectacular surroundings. This traditional championship course design plays 7,014 yards with a challenging slope rating of 135. Constructed in 1979 by Greg Nash and Jeff Hardin, this masterpiece of design features rolling terrain, two beautiful lakes, strategically placed bunkers and four sets of tees that allow the course to be set up for a wide variety of playing levels.

Los Caballeros Golf Club is surrounded by spectacular views of Vulture Peak to the south and the Bradshaw Mountains to the north. The course Signature Hole is

No. 13. Playing 599 yards from the blue tees, featuring numerous elevation changes and a small well-protected undulating green. It is consistently rated as one of the most challenging par-5 holes in the state. The course is ranked as a 4½-star winner and a two-star medal winner of good service and places to play by Golf Digest “Places to Play.”

The Club Chef provides lunch from a fresh grill menu daily. Dining is available inside the clubhouse or on the patio overlooking the practice area and the Bradshaw mountain range.

Wickenburg Country Club Often referred by many as a “thinker’s course,” Wickenburg Country Club accommodates players from the beginner to the experienced. Its clubhouse/ restaurant, Ringo’s Bar and Grill, can accommodate up to 120 guests. An open patio offers dining with circular views of the course surrounded by the picturesque

However, it has created a short window during which time the club is allowing a limited amount of unaccompanied non-member play. Reservations are available 30 days in advance by calling (928) 668-5535 or using the online booking.

Set around a thoughtfully designed bar and grill (Watering Hole) complete with nine wide-screen TVs and with up to 90 seats inside and across the stunning waterfall feature, Liâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;l Wick provides championshipquality greens on an environmentally conscious 18-acre footprint that includes piped-in music all along the lighted course (for night golf).
