Absolutely fantastic few days at BarSZ ranch. We were made to feel so welcome by the Borland family and our family (with 3 girls) loved being able to experience riding and grooming their very well cared for horses and learning how they also train wild mustangs. Such an idyllic location and a very special experience for the memory bank. Thank you

Had a brilliant time staying in the glamping tent at the ranch!! I would highly recommend it. Michelle, Tim and all the family and staff were really helpful and kind. The horse riding and shooting experiences were great fun too. Definitely stay there if you have the chance.

We had such a wonderful time on our trail ride experience! It was fun getting comfortable with the horses before our ride and getting to trot a bit in the arena. Amaya and Kailey were great guides. Thank you for a memorable experience! We hope to do it again!
