Our retirement dream is to share our beautiful property with people who love the outdoors.  We started with our rustic tent sites and slowly added cabins.  We go from primitive to sites with heat and air conditioning.  We are not far from the Interstate but sure seems like we are as you travel the 4.6 miles of gravel road to step back in time.

The Loft
Amazing Stars!
We absolutely loved staying at Rock N Ranch! It exceeded our expectations! Secluded and private sites. Hosts were ready to greet us and checked in briefly throughout the stay. We brought our 3 month old baby, so having the A/C was a game changer for us. Some of the best star viewing we’ve ever experienced. Our pups LOVED the quiet site! Make sure you’re prepared for ticks though. Already planning our next trip back.

The Bunkhouse
Bunkhouse Memorial Weekend
We spent memorial day weekend out here. We rented the bunkhouse from Friday-Monday. There was plenty of room for the 3 (2 adults and 1 ten year old) of us in the cabin and we had lots of privacy. There is a ton of space and lots activities to chose from on this BEAUTIFUL property. From hiking, to swimming in the creek, and fishing in the pond, we were never bored at Rock-n-Ranch! As for the hosts, I cannot begin to thank them enough! Darlene and Mike really did go above and beyond for us to make sure we had a great time while we were there. They are VERY sweet and down to earth people. You can tell they really care a lot about the property and the guests that visit there. We will 100% be coming again! We already can't wait to book our next trip!

Hunters Haven
Linda and her family have a beautiful chunk of land that my husband and I got to enjoy on our trip back from Colorado. We had booked a smaller cabin down in a hollow in the woods but there were storms forecasted for that night. Linda and her family thoughtfully moved us to a cabin on flat lad so our car wouldn't get stuck the next morning. The cabin was clean and had heat, AC, a fridge AND a TV/VCR with lots of VHS tapes. That was a lovely surprise. Linda was also very responsive to messaging. I was communicating with her about our changing arrival time all day and she was very understanding. We had a great time. Thanks Linda!

The Loft
Great family time and great hosts.
We came for one night to celebrate one of our daughter’s birthdays and had a wonderful time. Darlene and her husband were fantastic hosts. She showed me around the property right when I got there and was so helpful. We stayed in the loft cabin which was cozy and fit all of us just fine. We did run into a little bit of weather but luckily it moved through quickly and we were still able to enjoy our stay. We will definitely be back to visit!

Site 2 - Rustic Tent camping
This was a great spot to camp! Sweeping hills with some trees to protect from the wind. Linda was a great host. I definitely recommend this place.

The Bunkhouse
Lovely spot of land. We were welcomed by the host, then otherwise felt like we had the place to ourselves. At the same time, it's not far off the interstate, and perfectly suited our need for one night to break up a long trip. The Bunkhouse was cozy for a cooler night, and we were grateful to have a fridge for our car snacks and a microwave for supper. We would have enjoyed spending more time here - maybe on the next trek through!
