Come Horse Around With Us!
There's much to see here. So, take your time, look around, and learn all there is to know about us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our little slice of western heritage!
Visit the Ranch
Come on in!
There is no fee to enter and explore the ranch from November through September. It is free to the public though donations to assist with feeding our amazing animals and help maintain the property are greatly appreciated! We do charge an entrance fee in October for our Annual Pumpkin Patch and we can be closed due to weather or a Private Event! Always call in advance before taking a drive to the Ranch to confirm that we are open to the public that day! PICNIC AREAS ARE FOR PRIVATE EVENTS ONLY - please inquire with the office as they may be reserved for another event that day.
Petting Zoo
We have a large walk-in petting zoo available for you to explore at your leisure! It is complete with pigs, chickens, peacocks, goats, sheep, and miniature ponies. All looking for you to pet and give them lots of love.
Games
While you roam around the Ranch you will find some yard games that you are more than welcomed to play! Try roping a steer, play a game of connect four, giant "jean"-ga, horseshoes, and more! Plenty to keep the whole family entertained for hours.
FAQs
Do I need to make a reservation to visit the Ranch?
No reservations are needed to visit the Ranch! Only if you would like to take a Horseback Ride or Stagecoach Ride tour! Please ask about picnic areas, they may be reserved for an event.
Last time I was here it was October and you had a ton of other activities, are those still available?
Unfortunately, no. That is why we charge an entrance fee in October due to all of the extra games, hayrides, the train, and more - we require additional staff and it is only seasonal for the Pumpkin Patch. For the rest of the year we keep it simple with the petting zoo, yard games, and schedule our guided tours, Cowboy Cookouts, and Private Events.
Can I bring my dog to the Ranch while we walk around?
No. We do not allow outside animals at the Ranch.
Do you sell food at the Ranch?
We do not have food for sale other than in October for our Pumpkin Patch or if you have a scheduled event or cookout with us. We would be happy to recommend some great places nearby for lunch or dinner!
