About me
Michelle has been working with horses for over 30 years. She began riding at six years old and became an assistant riding instructor at thirteen. She became a head riding instructor at 17. She rode horses in both 4-H and the United States Pony Club and was fortunate to train with many professionals in English and Western riding.
Most recently, Michelle has been managing the barn at the Bar SZ Ranch where she oversees the care and training of guest trail riding horses. She also enjoys hosting clinics where she teaches guests, students, and 4-H members all about horses and other ranch animals. Additionally, Michelle oversees the care of all boarded horses at the facility.
Keeping horses safe and comfortable is work Michelle and her team take very seriously.

It was really amazing, such a nice experience with the kids (we recommend the animal feeding experience). The proximity with the national park is great, and the camping is really well equipped with a small kitchenette, drinkable water and water tap.

Loved your spot of heaven! The house, the camping area, the river running through it was so beautiful. Everyone there was friendly and helpful. The pool was sparking clean and the grounds were immaculate! Will definitely come back!

So much fun! Our kids loved this - particularly getting to hold 1 day old kittens! Definitely worth doing.

This place is amazing. We (a family of four with a 9 year old girl and 7 year old boy) had a wonderful time here. Tim, Michelle and the entire crew are fabulous. the grounds and surrounding scenery are truly spectacular. We stayed in one of the glamping tents, which were very spacious. This place is also just a short drive from the east entrance of Pinnacles National Park, which is very helpful since there is limited parking in the park and the proximity allows us to get to the park without worrying about parking. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a true getaway. Tons of fun activities at the Ranch. Thank you, Tim, Michelle and crew!
