This place is a city slicker's dream come true…read more Staff: Wonderful staff. Every staff member is friendly and cheerful. Horses: The horses are amazing. No sway-backed nags here. You are matched to a horse that suits your riding experience, and you may keep the same horse for the duration of your stay or request a change. Gear: You can rent a pair of authentic broken-in cowboy boots from the office. I highly recommend this option. It's cheap, and you get to feel like a real cowboy, and it's the safest footwear to ride in. Helmets are provided free of charge. Wear a helmet. I was cocky one time and didn't wear a helmet and suffered a concussion as a result (not at this ranch). Rides: The rides last approximately 2.25 hrs. Accommodations: Basic rooms with slightly outdated decor. There are a couple of larger rooms available but the decor is similar in all units. The rooms are probably the least attractive part of staying at the ranch, unfortunately, but it's also part of the charm. Food: Country comfort food. Breakfast is buffet style with scrambled eggs, sauteed veggies, sausages, bacon, potatoes, muffins, fruit, yogurt, cold cereal, coffee, tea. There is also a daily special that could be eggs benny or pancakes. Lunch could be burgers or pulled pork sandwiches with a couple of options for sides and special house-baked cookies. Dinner is meat and potatoes style - steak, roast turkey, etc. No complaints here - this isn't complicated food. Go for the Gourmet Weekend if you're lookin' for fancy food!

When you arrive at the ranch, you are matched with a horse and if you like, they will try and keep you with that horse for your stay. There are two rides a day (1.5-2 hours at least) and food is plentiful, varied and delicious. They have very good horses, so be honest about your experience, you will be happy for it. The wranglers are caring, smart, fun and very competent. Rooms are very comfortable (air conditioned, great beds, pillows and comforters ) and delightfully basic. No phones or TVs in the room. Bring books! Wi-Fi is fine for work emails, but thankfully, generally not good for streaming video. You will find that kids will put their devices down and spend hours in the pool, playing horseshoes or pool between rides.

He had also taken much time with me via text the night before to confirm plans with me. He had us sanitize properly etc. The experience was one we will remember with stunning views of the canyon.

We will be back with the whole family for sure ! Thank you both.

The two guides were friendly and helpful. During our two our ride, they would periodically asked if we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. They took us to a spot where a wild forest fire took place 8 years ago and to this day we can still see the devestation of it. They offered a 10% discount for groups of 4 or more people. It was a nice experience to see Okanagan from a different perspective.

Last summer we rented the river chalet for a vacation getaway. It was the best break from hectic…read morecity living I've ever had. The river chalet sits on the edge of Clearwater river and there's no other human life for miles around. It's just you, the flowing river, the sky, trees and wildlife. Very serene, rustic and memorable. The chalet is an old log cabin with no phone, no television, no hot water and only a small fridge and stove. You make your own fun, and that's the best kind of all. There's a giant balcony where you can sit and watch the river rush by and laugh with the stillness and calmness inside you, like old friends. The wilderness is so restorative. You're deep in the woods and you need to watch your back for beers. We spotted one about 50 feet off on a hike, but kept our talking loud so as not to alarm it, and it just lumbered off. We went over Canada Day long weekend. The river was swelling and the mosquitos were thick. Thank god for the mosquito nets around the beds. The old, wooden structure has a few holes where the bugs get in, so we had to smoke out the place with bug repellant coils a couple of times, so you need your bug spray. There's also a 25-minute hike in from your car to the chalet. If you don't like to sweat, or get a little dirty, this isn't your type of vacation. It's not a 5-star hotel, t but it will be an experience of a lifetime. Star-gazing, waterfall hikes and waking up to the sight of a river rushing by below you are priceless. But it's only about $125 a day to rent. Split between a few people, that's a cheap holiday getaway. Almost time to book for next year!
