We stayed here last April and had a great time ! The staff is very nice and helpful losts of activities for the kids and all you can eat snacks !
This place will take you back in time to a simpler time when life had no stress and being a kid was fun I thought that it was dated but who cares the staff where dun and very nice and accommodating. The food wasn't great but who comes here for the food. I came to ride and be a kid again. And my friends that is exactly what I did and I danced at night and hung out by the fire. My kids loved hanging out with me because I acted just like them.
This place is awesome. Went as kids, and loved it so much that we recently went back as a bachelorette party weekend. There was so much to do, the high point being the horseback riding. The horses are well-behaved and in good shape, and it's very obvious from the handlers that they are well-cared for, and the handlers really love what they do. This is not a "5-star" resort, so don't expect that, but it is homegrown and the staff makes it extra special. We referred to it as the "cheers" of dude ranches (where everybody knows your name). We got to hang out with the staff at the bar and nightclub and chat with them and came to find that it really is like a big family there. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because most of the facilities are pretty run down. This place could use a facelift and it would be awesome to see it upgraded to reflect how great it is "on the inside".
Lots of activities and old style charm. You will never go hungry with snacks and plenty of food at meal time. Friendly staff who are always happy to help. Don't go expecting world class facilities and a-class food though. The rooms are nothing to write home about and the hotel needs to be upgraded. All that said, if you are looking for an original Dude Ranch experience this is the place.
The horseback riding is spectacular! The horses are wonderful and in great condition. There are fun rides for very advanced riders as well as beginners.
The family activities at the resort are lots of fun. The guests are very supportive of each other. It's all friendly competition. Jennifer, the activity director, is great with adults and children.
The food is ok. If you have lots of allergies, it's a bit tough. That is my only complaint.
It is clean. The rooms could benefit from updates.
The ranch overall is very rustic.
we have visited twice and hope to see you again possibly in the Fall. I have been watching for the " discounted trail rides" offer - will you be running that deal again? Now as retired seniors with no income, we appreciate any discounted deals to enable us to still travel within a few hours of home (Connecticut). The last trail ride was enjoyed so much - Erin was a great guide. thank you!
Excellent customer service!!
Daniel - Amazing from start of stay & on until we had to leave.
Kelly - made sure we were informed and with a smile!
Andrea - Front desk service at it's finest!
DJ Jason - accommodated all the kids and adults with his music choice!!
Jennifer - Beautiful spirit!! Great with kids.
My favorite vacation with the kids. This a Dude Ranch not a spa or a fancy hotel. The food is great Staff excellent Kids can run run run! Great Activities for the family and of course Great Horse back trails
In addition to horseback riding, there are lots of activities for all ages, great food, always something fun to do! The shows are entertaining, with lots of audience participation. So many positives to mention -- 2 pools, snacks available for free until 11 p.m., bonfires, etc. Have been going since 2002 when our son was 11. He is 25 now and still excited to be going! Made some of our best friends at the ranch. Prices are more than reasonable for what you get!
I came here as a chaperone for my high school senior students. The staff there was pretty courteous. However the building seems rundown. Could definitely use a renovation. Overall price was a little higher than I expected, given that the arcade games there required extra money to play. The food was okay, although dinner service feels very rushed (we only had an hour to eat, even though it was sufficient). Sharing the pool with 3 other schools was not fun. If only the schedule could be changed so that there would be no or less overlap. The unlimited snack bar is awesome! Horseback riding was a fun activity as well. Overall it was a good experience.
