The headquarters are well improved with two nice homes, bunk house, two barns, tack room, shop, outbuildings, hen house, dog kennels, root cellar and meat locker/butcher cool box. A modern 7,000 watt solar power system provides sufficient power for water supply, refrigerators, computers, freezers, subterranean meat locker, and residential lighting. The cattle improvements include a squeeze chute, calf table, corrals and sweep to facilitate the working of cattle. The ranch contains two high volume springs providing ample water for the 60+ tree irrigated orchard, three productive gardens, an irrigated pasture, livestock and domestic uses with 80,000 gallons of water storage. The gardens and orchards provide sufficient produce allowing the owners to meet their personal needs while generating additional income from local farmers markets.
The USFS grazing allotment of 14,330 acres is contiguous to the headquarters and runs up to 117 head year-long. Sale of the ranch includes 50 head of quality angus/brangus located on the allotment. The allotment is watered by 30+/- springs; 50+/- dirt tanks; and creeks.

This working cattle ranch is located in Arizona game management hunt unit 27. On the southern end of the Blue Primitive Area, this hunt unit offers excellent Elk, Mule Deer, Whitetail, Turkey, Lion, and Bear hunting with record-book animals recently taken on the surrounding USFS land. Motorized access of Unit 27 is extremely limited and accessible only by foot or horseback making Tule Springs Ranch an excellent location for a hunting/outfitting operation. In addition, the allotment touches Eagle Creek which provides good fishing opportunities for smallmouth bass and other warm water species after a short horseback ride from the headquarters.
