The owners are taking the transition one step at a time and I understand that. Hospitality from staff is unsurpassed and the friendliness of the guests was exceptional. Work needs to be done on prepping and defining campsites. The weather sucked while I was there but then none of us were put in charge of that (probably a good thing). Overall I recommend this resort and intend to go back.

Always a great place to visit best food in the country . Started going there as after a divorce and coming out I didn’t know anyone in the community . They provided a non judge mental environment and slowly I began to gain some good freind’s I have a head injury things I say or do don’t always come out the way I plan on them to and I speak fast and mumbled no one judged me took some time to get to know everyone but overall I’ve learned a lot in a non judge mental setting . I’m not as reserved in public taking my life back now one step at a time . More healing at this place than just horses I saw that sign when I first went in Craig horses he works with people does therapy I do t know that much about that side I haven’t took a ride yet but going to soon . It’s amazing and love it there true freinds developed there .

A perfect mid-week get-away. Mitch and Craig are awesome hosts, and the ranch is the perfect spot for whatever your style of camping. The Garden Suite is perfect for those that want to visit for the downtime or for a special event, but don't want to tent camp. Thanks guys! Will definitely be back!

The property is beautiful with lots of nice hiking. Guest showers are well-maintained. The only drawback was the neighbors' dogs, which barked continually all night. Would recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful, off-the-beaten track camping experience.

The ranch is beautiful, though I couldn't explore a lot due to the heat. We hope they had a larger and a better pool area.
