This was a great stay! Loved that we were allowed to interact with the horses and they were so sweet! Matt and Alayna also made their shower available to me which was so appreciated. They even delivered coffee to the tent. Would definitely stay again :)

Glamping at its finest!

Words can describe how amazing our stay was! The horse ranch is such a special place. The horses are all so sweet and well mannered. Our host, Matt, was such a nice man and our accommodations were absolutely wonderful. The beds are comfortable, it’s peaceful, the pool was to die for. Fresh coffee and scones in the morning! They make you feel like you’re visiting your favorite relative and still have your privacy. Highly recommend, especially if you love horses and animals. Glamping at its finest

Really great glamping spot. Alayne was very welcoming and we enjoyed watching the sun set over the horse barns. Beautiful stream running through the property.
