Pearce is officially registered as a ghost town in Arizona and that becomes quite clear when you visit Old Historic Pearce. Probably most properties around here have a story and ours is that our place was built by a drug lord, which is why it has a ten-foot wall surrounding four acres. After the DEA stepped-in the next owners ran it as an Ostrich farm. Most recently owners ran an equine therapy operation consisting of several paddocks, a covered riding arena, large barn, our house and the “Bunk House” where guests can stay and Bob has his basket weaving studio. Out front are the lavender fields and another adjacent 30 acres of natural mesquite groves; home to diverse wildlife like deer, quail, jackrabbits, coyotes, roadrunners and a vast variety of birds.
