We were the only guest at the time and the quiet was wonderful. The space was clean; the bed was very comfortable; there was full bath and kitchen (fridge had trouble keeping things cold, never got above 45 degrees so take a good ice chest). The kitchen amenities were perfect for making breakfast and a couple of dinners during our 5 night stay. It was nice to have access to a TV but they do need to replace the swivel head which is broken and the TV is at a 45 degree downward angle. We propped it up with a roll of paper towels!! It worked. The outdoor space around the koi pond is so tranquil and pleasant that my husband and I hung out in our PJ and had coffee every morning. At night it was a great place to take in the stunning night skies. If you time it right you get ti watch Karen feed the giant koi Karen was very good at guiding us to the wineries and I can't thank her enough for recommending the Sonoita winery whose MeCaSah wine is truly an award winner. We also went the Vera Earl Beef which sell aged beef..so good. Also of note is the Copper Brothel Brewery where I had the best chicarrones ever and I don't want to leave out The Corner Scoop for the best breakfast burritos. All in all it was so enjoyable and hope to return.

We stopped at a vineyard along the way and arrived in late afternoon at the immaculate, charming Open Cross Ranch. The owners/hosts could not have been more gracious, and even the beautiful horses were friendly. The guest houses are charming and have authentic ranching antiques collected over years by the family. They include quilts made by the hostess and every amenity you would ever need in the kitchen. We stayed up late sitting around the fire pit wrapped in soft blankets, telling stories, and watching the stars. We came away refreshed and with beautiful pears we were invited to pick from trees gracing the property. I highly recommend this lovely place.

All of the staff members were beyond accommodating and wanted to make sure each guest was taken care of. Ross and Lynne, the newer ranch managers, made us feel like we were part of the family. We had several activity options every day, and could pick and choose what we wanted to do. Even pretty flexible if/when we wanted to switch out. The food was also great - chef Chase left us with waistlines a tad bigger than when we arrived. We look forward to visiting the group another year in Montana! Note: we were a group of 6 adults. There were some kids there but it was better on the days when there weren't :)

Activities include horseback riding, tv tours, motorized bicycles and others. Rooms are rustic and nothing special but I don't think we were ever in them except to sleep. We spent a lot of time on the porch just enjoying the peace and quiet. Meals are communal in a large dining room. Good chow but nothing gourmet. Breakfast was buffet and nice variety. Each night people gather for happy hour in the cantina. It is an honor system and perhaps people took advantage with healthy pours but so what? We brought beer and wine and drank them mostly. Room has a refrigerator.

For me, this was truly a unique experience, not to mention witnessing a rare aura event in the night sky during our meditative sound bath.

You can venture out from your room to hike or simply enjoy one of the many patio areas to watch birds and squirrels. We stayed in "the nest" which was a smaller but beautiful room with a 4-post bed. The bed itself was quite comfortable though a bit squeaky. The room was clean, comfortable, roomy, and came with everything we needed to enjoy a quiet evening away from the kids. We brought food to make a gourmet campfire dinner and enjoyed the BBQ set up and fire pit. Breakfast was provided and while we did not care for the prepped quiche (tasted like a slice of pizza) we enjoyed the apple crisp and yoghurt parfait and the gesture alone! The grounds are well-kept and ideal for birders, nature lovers, and adults in general. While the close-knit atmosphere is not the place for a honeymoon or rekindling romance, it is perfect for a small relaxing getaway or the place to start your Big Year!
