I just got back from a girl scout only weekend at the ranch. What a wonderful time. It has a rustic western type decor, with plenty of comfy pubic spaces to gather or just sit a read a book. The rooms were spacious and very clean. In fact, the entire place was spotless and the landscaping was very pretty.The staff... More

First time at this resort. Its a family oriented place that is full of parents and tons of kids. The space is immaculate- not just rooms but everything. I have rarely seen such attention to cleanliness, from the grounds to the facilities to the barn. Our room was in the older Oklahoma and it was sparse- only 2 pillows, curtains... More

This is a great place for kids for a few days. This year we had only 5 days for springbreak so drove to local places. We went to Great Wolf (also reviewed) for two days and Rockinghorse for three. The kids loved the bungee jumping, the horseback riding, and the gameroom. They did not use the waterpark very much this... More

It's an awesome idea to have a retreat for the kids like this one. But, lets break it down, each category rated from 1 to 5: Food: 2 (very limited selection, like burgers, hot dogs and all the fried stuff, 3 very similar meals per day- NOT a healthy choice for anybody). Hotel condition: 2-3 ( the rooms look like... More

We just spent the weekend at this establishment and had the most wonderful experience. the staff was super friendly. the accommodations were lovely (not 5 star but clean and nice). the horseback riding alone was enough for me to rave about but the food was delicious as well. for the amount of people they served, it came out hot and...

Our trip to Rocking Horse was great for everyone. We took the drive from Bristol, CT with our two kids 7 and 13 and everyone had a fantastic time. Sometimes it's hard to find someplace for everyone to enjoy, but they had something for everyone. They have plenty of activities for kids of all ages and lots for adults to... More

Stayed here for the first time from 4/29 for 3 nights with 2 children aged 2 and 3. I'll start with the negatives if I can even call it that. First, after hauling our luggage to our room and going in, it was not done yet. Bed sheets and dirty towels were on the floor. After checking back in with... More
