Whether you are an inexperienced rider looking for a calm, gentle mount or an experienced rider who rides daily, we will find a horse to match your ability and disposition. |
|
| FOR CHILDREN |
|---|
|
| Our children’s counselors provide special activities for kids of all ages. Including riding, hiking, fishing, crafts and nature studies. Our petting zoo is a favorite for everyone as we encourage involvement with the feeding and care of the animals. We figure one of the most important parts of a ranch vacation is families coming together so we do encourage families to ride together but are always flexible if the adults or kids want to join other groups. While adults relax in the saloon with a cold beverage after a day in the saddle there is always something going on for the kids in the afternoon. Our wranglers are well known for challenging guests in a game of pool or a late afternoon soccer game. |
|
| FOOD/LIQUOR |
|---|
|
| Our chef will surprise you with a varied selection of culinary delights, sure to please even those with the most discriminating tastes; of course there is always simpler fare for the less adventurous. Our cookie jar in the main lodge is always full with homemade treats and you can always count on complimentary appetizers during happy hour in the saloon. We also offer a fully licensed Saloon. |
|
| BUSINESS/MEETINGS |
|---|
|
| A casual setting with many teambuilding activities available for smaller, more intimate groups. Meeting facilities are available in the main lodge or saloon or break into smaller groups in individual cabins. |
