We had an amazing time and felt so well taken care of. My children were delighted to be surrounded by animals and I loved that Michelle, Tim and their family showed us how to both be around and care/feed for the animals. Will be back again!

As fun and authentic as can be. Bar SZ Ranch has you get to know the horses before you ride, helps you to understand how to prepare the horses for a ride, then takes for a test ride in the arena to make sure you know how to guide the horse. Everyone is legitimately friendly and concerned about your safety. Five stars for sure.
