Fodor's Review:
This 150-acre ranch once belonged to William and Frances Keys and illustrates one of the area's most successful attempts at homesteading. The couple raised five children under extreme desert conditions. Most of the original buildings, including the house, school, store, and workshop, have been restored to the way it was when William died in 1969. The only way to see the ranch is on one of the 60-minute, ranger-led walking tours, offered weekdays between October and May.
- Cost: $5
- Open: Oct.-May, tours weekdays 10 and 1
- Keep in mind: Reservations essential.
