| Here, your day begins with an invigorating breath of fresh mountain air, a savory breakfast ready and waiting for you, and |
| an open invitation to use your time any way you choose. |
| For second and third generations of families visiting the ranch, the value is clear: a wholesome environment, exciting outdoor |
| recreation, and a memorable family vacation. Your expectations are high and this ranch is proud to exceed them. |
| As a guest ranch handed down from one generation to the next, the family customs of hospitality, which made it the guest |
| ranch it is today, continue. The ranch offers an all-inclusive weeklong program with guests arriving and departing on |
| Saturday. |
| Nestled beneath tall ponderosa pine trees, the cabins feature knotty pine paneling, comfortable furnishings, and are |
| decorated in a warm western motif. You will feel at home in our two and three bedroom suites equipped with all the |
| amenities our guests expect for a week's stay. |
| All cabins feature private entrances, a relaxing sun deck, and bathrooms adjoining all bedrooms. Most also have fireplaces |
| and wet bars. Along with daily maid service, bath amenities include shampoo, lotion hand and body soap and from Gilchrist & |
| Soames and our trading post is stocked with toiletries in case you forget anything. Laundry facilities are available at no extra |
| charge. |
| The Owl's Nest and Killdeer cabins hearken back to days of old in Central Oregon. These units were brought over from the |
| Brooks Scanlon Timber Company where they were the living quarters at the logging camps. Renovated to suit a high |
| standard of comfort, the cabins still give one the feeling of a time long past. |
| The lodge is the perfect setting for relaxation after a day of fun. With decking extending the perimeter of the lodge, there is |
| plenty of space for visiting with new friends or finding a quiet spot overlooking our natural spring-fed pond for personal |
| reflection. The massive stone fireplace, vaulted ceiling and cozy overstuffed leather chairs in the living room also beckon an |
| early morning coffee before starting the day. |
| A small library, billiards, a game room, trading post, and puzzles and games can also be found in the lodge. |
| While traditional dude ranch activities such as horseback riding are paramount to your vacation at here, many other activities |
| to complete your experience are provided. |
| Gourmet and "Casino Night" - While the children are enjoying games and a sing along at the campout, it's adult's night back at |
| the ranch. Menu planning centers on a mature palette with wild game and gourmet dishes. Adult games such as poker and |
| roulette are offered for the evening. |
| Luncheon Ride - This all day ride takes you out to a beautiful site nestled beneath the trees for a full spread on the trail. |
| Massage - Ease your trail worn muscles with an hour-long massage. Further soothe your muscles with a soak in the hot tub |
| overlooking the natural spring-fed pond. |
| Fishing - The stocked trout pond is ideal for brushing up on casting as well as for serving as an introduction to fishing for the |
| younger guests. |
| In addition to these special activities, you will enjoy tennis, basketball, volleyball, a heated swimming pool, an outdoor spa, |
| horseshoes, billiards, Ping-Pong, hiking and jogging trails, and a host of indoor games and puzzles. |
| Horseback riding is a major focus here. The ranch owns it's own horses and knows their dispositions. Thus it is easily |
| possible to match them to riders based on both personality and skills level. Riders range from first-time beginners to those |
| who ride competitively. |
| With access to over 12,000 acres of land, the diverse terrain offers a variety of riding options with areas of high desert |
| Juniper pine and sagebrush as well as tall ponderosa pines, bitterbrush, and manzanita. Ridges and rim rock offer sweeping |
| views of the Central Cascade Mountains and open areas allow for cantering and off trail riding. |
| Morning rides are typically 2- 2 1/2 hours long and afternoon rides about an hour and a half long. Thursday is the all day ride |
| day complete with a full ranch lunch brought on the trail from the kitchen. |
| Riding groups usually consist of up to 6 guests and a wrangler. Because riders are matched in ability, rides range from |
| "walking only" to those which spend a fair amount of time cantering. Usually, you will ride the same horse all week, allowing | |
| both you and your horse to become acquainted and comfortable with one another. |
