The ranch property is incredible, the landscaping is impeccable, the outbuildings are beautiful and there is lots to look at and explore. We loved meeting the llama, wandering the property, playing on the playground and roasting marshmallows in the fire pit. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds comfy and there were extra towels and washcloths. The host was very responsive to the one issue we ran into (unable to find the tv remote) and he was able to resolve it quickly. The property was truly magical and the cabin was beautiful. The only thing I didn’t realize (and this could totally have been me not reading the listing thoroughly enough) was that the cabin is a triplex. There is a unit behind it and one above. Noise does travel fairly easily between the units.

The ranch is absolutely breathtaking. The drive-in and the various yards were all perfectly manicured and beautiful. Cabin number 2 was as described and everything seemed brand new! It was a perfect place for our small reunion.
