We stayed here for a family event and I can't say enough positive things about both the ranch and the owners...Josh and Christina are the loveliest people...totally down to earth genuine humans and they have created a fantastic place to stay while also retaining much of the historic charm. There is an awesome trail right behind the ranch so we took full advantage and hiked/ran every day....also LOTS of birds to see!

He was quite friendly and provided specific directions to the location. Google Maps will get you there. Signage is minimal so drive slowly so you don't miss the entrance. Upon arrival, we checked in and were paired with a horse. I had the pleasure of riding Gunsmoke. After a brief tutorial (left, right, stop, and go), we were ready to ride off into the sunset. Parts of the terrain were a bit rocky, which was a little intimidating, but Gunsmoke was able to navigate without any difficulty. Our guide was friendly and attentive. Definitely add TMS to your activity list if you're ever in the area! Our guide was super friendly and attentive.

We were quickly given an easy 1-2-3 of steering and handling the horse. I had the pleasure of riding atop of Romeo. The staff were pretty reserved and friendly. The ride was about 1.5 hours long thru a desert path. It was amazing to see the horses navigate in incline and descent rocky terrain. They would halt or slow down walking until they got good footing. Depending on the weather bringing sun shades, water, mask for dusk, proper attire would be recommended. However, I was not fully prepared. With that being said I still was ok without and had an amazing time anyway.

They had a beautiful trail, the picnic was small but cute, and it's really good for beginners. I got to meet one of their long term guest from France who was preparing for a horseback trip in Africa and it was really nice to have lunch set up like a true ranch style meal. We got to talk to new people, there's tons of great photo ops, and the cutest little gift store. Staff isn't super friendly and it's definitely not a hilton but everything is cute and on theme. One of the horses did seem somewhat tired when we went but we were also the last rides of the day so hopefully that's not the standard... overall a really a great time!
