| LODGING |
|---|
|
| One, two, three and four bedroom log cabins with private bathrooms. Most with tub/shower. Cabins are furnished with beds made at the ranch as well as all homemade quilts made here at the ranch. They are comfortable and rustic. |
|
| RECREATION |
|---|
|
| Our main activities are horseback riding and fly-fishing. There is excellent hiking in the area on your own. Our rides go out twice a day and we offer two all day rides for the intermediate to advanced riders. We have a weekly pack trip at an additional charge. A Gym Khana, or games on horseback, along with a softball game, a lecture on Native Americans or wildlife, hayride, campfire and square dance are some of the varied activities each week. |
|
| FOR CHILDREN |
|---|
|
| We have an excellent children's program with a babysitter who takes care of the Small Fry group, the infant to five year olds. Those that are capable are taken on a lead-around ride once a day. The Kiddie Wrangler takes the Rough Riders, children six to nine, out on trail rides and they also eat lunch and dinner with other children of similar age ranges. The children are taken on an all day picnic once a week as well and play games after dinner until the adults are done with their dinner. Family time is essential with a sprinkling of "alone" time. |
|
| FOOD/LIQUOR |
|---|
|
| We serve many of our meals family style. The breakfast is served to you as a family, lunch is a wonderful homecooked meal with adults at their own tables and children at their appropriate age range tables. Dinner is served early to the children and suited to their tastes. Adults enjoy Happy Hour in our lounge, BYOB, but we provide ice, mixers, and appetizers. Adult dinner is served afterwards with a nightly special, halibut, pork tenderloin, prime rib, and fresh salads, breads and tempting desserts. All meals are hearty home-cooked style meals, fresh ingredients, all breads and desserts are made on-site daily. We happily accommodate special diets & vegetarian meals. |
|
| BUSINESS/MEETINGS |
|---|
|
| We can host meetings and conventions as well as retreats. The large lodge works great for both formal and informal meetings. June or September are ideal months to hold a retreat or convention at the ranch. We can host upwards to 50 people sharing accommodations. |

| REGION/CUSTOMS |
|---|
|
| We are an authentic dude ranch that dates back to the early teens. Everyone loves that "time stood still here" because we keep to the old customs and make everyone feel like part of the family. We can accommodate upto 65 guests per week and are open from mid-June through mid-September yearly. Our Appaloosa horse herd is bred and raised on site. The fly-fishing guide is available throughout the week to our guests exclusively. We also have a large "herd" of domesticated rabbits that roam throughout the ranch entertaining young and old alike. |
