Birthdays at The ranch

This is one of many trips to The ranch. We come back because of the excellent service, beautiful rooms and wonderful restaurant. We celebrated our anniversary and birthdays with two of our children started with cocktails at the fire pit and moved in for a wonderful dinner with the help of Sal and Scott.The food was excellent as always. Will be back.

A nice relaxing stay

Great hotel with a unique independent feel. Service was great with a very friendly front desk. They really do strive to make your stay as great as possible. The room was great, nicely decorated and felt clean. The food was excellent and the service was too. We ate breakfast and dinner there and did not run out of options. The complimentary shuttle was a nice touch. I’d definitely recommend for golfers and non golfers too.

Overall perfect, other than the paper claim tickets!

Hi Kurt, I came for a wedding and was absolutely blown away. From your team’s hospitality, to the beauty, to how comfortable the bed was, to how well I played on the greens ;), it was perfect. I was particularly impressed with your team’s commitment to sustainability. All the little things down to the wooden room key. The only feedback I have is the valet paper ticket hurt, from what I value in staying at sustainably-focused resorts. The team mentioned you tried to go paperless before with a legacy system not able to compete with the speed, which I get! I think the Ranch should consider Chexology, as I believe it’s a perfect fit. While talking to the team, I received excitement about how Chexology integrates with Alice and Opera Cloud to quickly search and add guests to tie them to their vehicle/luggage to beat the speed of the paper process. Coming back the week of the 25th and hope the team considers this sustainable alternative!

Clean and friendly staff. Lots of amenities, we didn’t know about after our stay was over that we could utilize that would’ve made to stay more pleasant

Our extended family celebrated our parents’ 50th wedding anniversary at The Ranch. Each family had a 2 bedroom suite overlooking the pool. The suites are spacious and the perfect solution for a stay with kids. We had a private room for dinner at Harvest and the food was very good and the serving staff was excellent. The next morning we all ordered food from The Porch and at around a fire pit enjoying the gorgeous canyon views. It has been some years since our last stay and I will be sure to not let nearly as much time pass before our next one.
