Great family reunion place
One factor that made it difficult for some was the elevation. But the hot springs pool was a favorite for all, and the hosts were great.

About the host

Hosted by The Pringle Family

Host profile image
The Pringle family has 3 generations involved at the ranch. Rod and Junelle purchased the ranch in 1962 moving from Houston Texas, with three young boys. One son, Ryan remained at the ranch and along with his wife Tammy and their three children, Randi, Kolby and Dani now run day to day operations.

What makes this property unique

Waunita is a magical place where the Native Americans once gathered to renew and refresh in the natural springs. This spirit is alive today for families and groups wanting to reconnect away from that beaten path.
