McMullen Valley Arizona Tourism

Along with Brenda, Harcuvar, Hope, Salome, Wenden, Vicksburg, McMullen Valley was named after its first businessman, James McMullen, who opened a stage station on the La Paz Road in May of 1855.

The May 14, 1866 edition of the Precsott Miner reported: “McMullen has a fine well near Granite Wash, upon the La Paz Road. He also keeps a first class station with good food for man and beast.” Occasionally, the name “Grace Valley” is applied to this area, for Grace Salome Pratt, whose husband Charles, tried to start an agricultural colony in the Salome portion of the valley.
