Trip: Animal Feeding Experience
Guide: Michelle B., Tim B., Maddi B., Colton B., Maleah F.
We had a fantastic time at this ranch! The family and employees were always kind and gracious. The property is absolutely gorgeous. We had a great time helping feed the animals, and shooting bb guns and bows. The kids enjoyed riding the horses. With the recent rainfall, we got to ride on a 10 ton truck to cross a river that cut through the property. Everyone loved that! We loved how attentive and hospitable the hosts were. They went out of their way to make sure we were enjoying our stay. We 100% recommend staying here.

Trip: Arena Ride Experience (Ages 5+)
Guide: Michelle B., Maddi B., Maleah F.
Though the children weren't able to ride because of rain and slippery conditions, Michelle, Maddi and Maleah adapted to provide a great educational session in which the kids were able to curry and brush the horses, get the mud out of their hooves and lead a horse, a pony and a donkey around a roofed ring and guide the animals around an obstacle course. Everyone, including the adults, enjoyed it!

This was a fun and educational experience for all of us aged 8 to 73. For the four kids, it was the first time they were doing archery and shooting. From Tim's safety talk at the beginning to Colton's help throughout, we all learned a lot and had a great time! Tim was very kind to set this up for us despite the rainy drizzle.

Trip: BB Guns & Archery Experience at "Day at the Bar SZ"
Guide: Tim B., Colton B.
It was amazing! Beautiful ranch, wonderful people, yummy food. Perfect! Our boys ages 9 & 10 especially loved the shooting & archery range, and our daughter, age 12, loved hanging out with the horses. My husband Stephen and I loved seeing the sunset over the valley from the porch of the Ranch house. ❤️
