Everything and more!
I cannot say enough amazing things about 2nd hand ranch! Everything and more that you could look for. I will say, the pictures do not do this place justice- it is beautiful, peaceful, welcoming, and so relaxing. Nancy and her team are just simply amazing humans who go above and beyond for their guests, and animals! Nancy was a Gem and Dana’s Retreat is simply amazing!

Total Privacy
Our host Nancy went out of her way to get us, the digitally illiterate baby boomers (who were lost and unable to understand google map features), to the retreat. It’s a beautiful hut and we were made comfortable during this October week by a cute, warm propane oven.
Visiting the animals was a special treat: Nancy showed us around and we learned about the rescue animals, how they got there and their personality. It felt good to support such a wonderful place.

We can't wait to go back
Nancy was a fantastic host and does such great work with her animal rescue. This is a must stay if you're an animal lover and want to get away from it all.
The cabin is stocked with everything you need! It's a magical hike through the woods to the cabin with fairy lights along the path. Absolutely gorgeous!

A dream come true for animal lovers! The space is beautiful, comfortable, cozy and thoughtfully outfitted. We’ve been gushing about it nonstop to everyone we know since getting back and cannot wait to return!

Felt the Love and Joyous Peace
Peaceful loving trip and night under the stars and a full moon. I couldn’t ask for a better night and a better host. Nancy and Randy were gracious in every way. Nancy gave a fun tour of 2nd Hand Ranch prior to leading me up to Dana’s Retreat.
The story of this place makes it even more special.
Book a trip, you’ll cherish the memory.

A Truly Magical Experience!
What an amazing experience! The retreat itself is pure nature - quiet, secluded, nestled in the trees. It has everything you need for a great weekend like a picnic table, fire pit, cute little front porch, and grill. The inside is small but cozy and perfect.
If you love animals, this is the place for you. The hosts are so welcoming and warm and love to show off their amazing animal rehab. Raccoons, foxes, a big ol' cow named Albert, and so many more creatures call this place home (for now at least).
It truly is a magical place! We are already planning to come back in the winter because when the leaves drop, the stars take their place through the branches.
Oh, and if you're worried about the little outhouse, don't be. It's close to the cabin and the most adorable thing you'll ever see.
