My family has owned the ranch since 1977. We bought it from my parents a few years ago to keep it in the family. We love living here, and although it is just the two of us working it, we are slowly getting it to what we want it to be. The house we live in is over 100 years old and used to be a stage coach stop back in the late 1800's to early 1900's, You can still see some of the old stage coach roads on the property, and we are trying to preserve those the best we can. Also in the early 1900's this ranch used to be the place to go on the fourth of July. People from all over would bring their prize horses to compete in a horse race for the name of the fastest horses around While others would bring picnic baskets to set back on the knoll in one of our fields to watch.

Haystack Ranch offers a serene camping experience with beautiful views and friendly hosts. Many campers appreciated the peaceful environment and the proximity to John Day Fossil Beds National Monument. While some campers found the location a bit challenging to locate, the hosts were praised for being helpful and responsive. A few campers noted the outhouse setup as a concern, but overall, the site is well-regarded for its tranquility and scenic surroundings.
