PLEASE NOTE
- As we rent our entire facility to one large group at a time, we do not offer any refunds once the facility is booked. We do recommend a third party insurance policy like AAA, Allianz Global, etc... We find these are affordable and will cover your expenses in the event of unforeseen cancelation.
- We do not allow weddings hosted at the ranch and we also do not rent the facility from mid-May to Mid July.
- We do not allow group gatherings that are open to non-overnight guests.
- The ropes course and zip line are an additional cost of $15 per person, per hour and must be reserved two weeks in advance of your stay. The Giant Swing requires a group of at least 15 healthy participants to be a pull team. We will be unable to facilitate the Giant Swing with a group smaller than this. The ropes course and Giant Swing are only available from April 1st to Oct 1st.
- The property does not allow outdoor fires. This is an insurance requirement and is not negotiable. It's out of our hands!
