If you guys haven't stepped into this Rio Bravo Ranch Market, you HAVE TO…read more My friends and I went water rafting, and right after such a great excursion, we notice a beautiful mini market opened. They had samples of their varieties of olive oil and balsamic. The olive oil is what they create right next door. Kelly helped us out and we got to have samples with little pieces of bread. I forgot the exact names, but I tried the olive oil "with a little spice and kick" and the olive oil that "was like butter". Both were so good- but my absolute favorite was LIKE BUTTER, she was Not wrong. It's hard to find good quality olive oil that you could just sip on for nutrients if you wanted to. But the best part was pairing the olive oil with the balsamic. They imported it straight from Italy. It was like dessert (in the best way possible). No sugar, but had the perfect amount of sweetness AND such a great price. My friend bought it and I will be stealing some of his Thank you Kelly for your hospitality and ingredients!!!

Overall, this was a great experience and beautiful ranch to explore.

Leaning Oaks Ranch was a perfect venue for my daughter and new son-in-law's wedding! With 150…read moreguests invited, the setting was great for the 100+ attendees. Landscaping in the front area where the ceremony and most bridal party pictures were taken is beautiful. The plants offered greenery and a beautiful array of fall colors for the occasion. We were terrified that we might get rained out, but Barbara (owner, proprietor, sanity savior!) had connections to vendors offering tent options but assured us we would be okay without said tents after scouting the weather and staying in constant contact with us. (She was 100% correct) We then moved from the picturesque ceremony area to the back for the reception. This also did not disappoint. There was a good flow to the venue between the bar, the food serving, the tables for dinner and visiting with guests, to the Gazebo and dance area. It was cozy for guests but never crowded. The staff was attentive and extremely helpful...our guests wanted for nothing. I was pleased and impressed with the professionalism and hospitality at the wedding and reception. Leaning Oaks was completely accommodating and helpful every step of the way. For a wedding, you simply don't want to leave things to chance; the day is just too important. It felt like the staff were ready to meet our every need and offer suggestions when needed. I can honestly say that the guests, family, and the bride/groom were 100% satisfied with Leaning Oaks as a venue and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a local, outdoor, beautiful, and professional venue. We worked with Barbara and Keith to get everything we needed dropped off the day before the event so that set-up was a breeze the day of the wedding! Positive communication was a huge key to this very successful event. My daughter and son-in-law now have amazing memories they can look back on for the rest of their lives and smile. Choosing Leaning Oaks took away much of the stress of planning a large event and an important day! (More pictures will be added as they are received...)

I have had my horses boarded at RREC for over a decade. It pains me to write this review, but our…read morecommunity needs to be made aware of the poor quality of their service. First, the positives- one of the owners(owner B) is there everyday caring for her own horses, so getting ahold of her is quite easy. Also, there is easy access to the river trails. Now for the unfortunate parts: 1. The entire facility is in such disrepair that over the span of 6 months, my horse had no water for nearly 2 days because the automatic water bowl was completely broken and nobody noticed. I personally witnessed 3, fully grown trees FALL OVER! Two of which landed on pens and hitching rails. Further, the stalls dividers often break or fall down! Not to mention, there are shar wires and paneling impinging upon the feed areas. 2. They nickel dime you into the poor house. They require first and last month payment upon signing your contract. If you want a tack room, it's an extra $10/month. If there is an extra shade structure (all of which were built decades ago by horse owner and cost the facility absolutely nothing), it's another $15/month! 3. Serious safety concerns! The fencing which makes up the stalls often breaks, falls completely down, or the rods come in welded and stick into the stall. Sharp wire jut into many stalls as well. One of the riding instructors gives lessons to upwards of 10 BEGINNER students at the same time, most without helmets, and has kids interacting with horses completely unsupervised. 4. Obvious discrimination. There are several boarders to whom the facility rules flat out don't apply, but everyone besides these people are held to them. 5. The most frustrating thing is the unbelievable lack of concern for boarders. Any time there is a legitimate request made (moving stalls until repairs are made, safety concerns, repairs), they are met with the line, "We would fix that, but the owner won't allow it." I asked numerous times to get in contact with owner A(the person who is rarely seen), but was met with pushback each time. The lack of accountability from the owners and never ending safety hazards/disrepair have forced out numerous people, including myself. I recommend finding somewhere else to board horses.

I was tired of fast food on our road trip and wanted something more real. We stopped here to check it out and everything about our experience was perfect. From the moment we walked in the door we were greeted within 30 seconds even though the 3 servers on the floor were VERY busy, they got back with us within a minute, sat us, and immediately got a drink order. When they came back they asked if we were ready to order. We were in a hurry, so when the Server came back to quality check our food we ordered dessert to go and asked for the check so we could get back on the road as we were eager to get home. We were so impressed with our service and honestly, the delicious diner food, that we planned to stop here again on our way home from our yearly trip this year. We had a different server this year, but everything about the experience was identical. Wonderful, tasty, timely, kind... Thank you, Willow Ranch staff, we will certainly make you part of our plan every year! I also wanted to note that I am a career server and the details matter to me. It is so amazing when someone like myself can receive the kind of service that I am proud to give when I'm working. I also witnessed the front of house staff engaging in friendly banter with the kitchen staff and I just love that. I am also close with the team on our line and I think that makes a huge difference in the overall performance of the restaurant.

Quail Run Ranch is a unique and one-of-a-kind ostrich farm that is basically out in the middle of…read morenowhere. You might not realize how huge and dangerous some of these birds really are, but they average about 9 feet to 12 feet tall and from 250 to 350 pounds. And, they can be quite deadly. During the mating season, the males will instantly try to attack you if you get close. They've got about 6 to 10 different ostriches in separate fenced off areas. If you pay a few dollars for a tour, they will walk you down and show you the different ostriches they have, as well as provide some pretty interesting ostrich facts. Their feet are crazy as they are the only two toed bird on earth. Looking at them it is easy to see how they are related to dinosaurs because it looks just like a dinosaur foot. You can also buy ostrich eggs if they have them available, which are equal to about 24 to 36 eggs. The flavor and consistency is actually pretty good as well and very similar to chicken eggs. They also sell honey and a bunch of other things. Also, in certain times of year, you can go and see the baby ostrich chicks that they raise. If you're feeling adventurous, this is definitely worth a trip, especially if you have kids. This has become a fun stop we started making on our annual visit to the California Poppy Preserve in Antelope Valley. I would call ahead and see what's going on with tours and everything else. Five stars.

My daughter got married at the JEH Ranch, and the location was beautiful and the food was very…read moregood. However, dealing with Morgan, the wedding coordinator, was not an easy or enjoyable experience. Morgan never seemed to have time for questions or to meet to discuss the wedding and made us feel like we were bothering her. One time she actually asked my daughter to meet her at an out of the way high school for a 5 minute meeting during a break in her child's sport. We had JEH Ranch do all the flowers and decorations, but they made them more elaborate with more than double the flowers then my daughter wanted. Morgan said she would make the toss bouquet from leftover flowers, but she didn't so my daughter had to give away her bouquet. On the day of the wedding the neighbor yelled comments and insults, including racial slurs, at guests and the wedding party before, during, and after the ceremony making everyone uncomfortable. Right before the ceremony began, the wedding party asked where the boutonnières were and Morgan just shrugged and said she didn't know. They showed up half way through the pictures after the ceremony. I never received a statement of any kind for the wedding. In fact, beside the initial deposit Morgan didn't ask for any money until a late night 3 days before the wedding and even then she still didn't have a final cost. even though it was only an estimate as she still didn't know the final cost. She asked for the balance while the wedding party was getting dressed. We didn't even know what we were paying for or getting but it was to late to do anything. I would recommend JEH for the location and catering, but bring your own coordinator, flowers/florist, and DJ.
