Rancho Mil Riverfront RV Resort and Guest Cottages

Welcome To Rancho Mil Ecotourism!

Located just 58 km south of Mexicali and 1 km from the newly improved Mexico Highway 5, Rancho Mil is an easy one-hour drive from the US Border.

A place to relax, unwind, and enjoy the beauty of the Rio Hardy as it quietly flows along the western edge of the Colorado River Delta, a "UNESCO Biosphere Reserve". Established as a tourist "Campo" (Spanish for "field") in 1941, The Ranch has been an oasis for vacationers for over 80 years!

Teeming with wildlife, the Rio Hardy is a stopover for migrating birds along the Pacific Flyway.

This is a place of quiet solitude yet brimming with outdoor activities. Bird watching, touring kayaks & SUP's, desert hiking & ATV trails, or just kickback on your riverfront patio with a cold drink and a good book. It's YOUR choice. At night, the desert sky lights up with a million stars. Relax and reflect as the full moon rises across the river or plan your trip to coincide with one of the annual meteor showers throughout the year.

The Story

I first came to this "Campo" on the Rio Hardy in 1977. From the beginning I was captivated by the beauty and serenity. There was, and still is, a feeling of being a million miles away from "civilization". Utilizing my background in designing and building, I constructed a comfortable home, swimming pool, "ramada" and large garage at the river's edge. After 36 years as a member, I was given the opportunity to purchase the concession for the entire campo. I renamed it "RANCHO MIL" (Mil is Spanish for Thousand) and have lovingly restored it!
