Riverfront Full Property Rental
Can’t wait to go again!
We had an absolutely fantastic time at the ranch. There were four families about 15 people total with kids ages 2-14. We brought two tents which some of us used in the camp sites but there was actually room for everyone to sleep indoors. The main house was spacious and had a homey cozy cabin feel. The house was stocked with everything we needed to cook meals and unwind. The newly renovated barn was like an incredible bonus room with an awesome porch, arcade games and a bar area. There were also a bunch of comfy couches and a very cool bar. Everything was new and clean and well decorated. Really laid back country cool vibe. The river is right there with a big covered dock to fish off of. We caught fish! The current was extremely strong so not great for kayaks or swimming, but there are tons of springs within minutes of the location. There’s a big fire pit and a couple of smaller ones too. It’s really everything you could possibly want for a “glamping” family/friends spot. Kid and dog friendly too.
