Tucked into the hills of Prescott, this Ranch is more than just a venue. It's where time instantly slowed down upon our arrival and the land itself started telling a story. The host are truly some of the most welcoming people you'll ever meet. They are genuine in their desire to provide you with an unforgettable experience. They were gracious in every way and even told us of the history of the land from hundreds of years ago. We stayed in their massive guest house, which can comfortably accommodate up to 12 guests, with plenty of room to spare. It's perfect for large families, retreats, bridal shower sleepovers and friend getaways. The house is fully stocked, so all you need to do is bring your food. I started mornings off with coffee and the most spectacular sunrise and views of all that awaited us on that magical property. Through the windows or sitting on the wrap around patio. The house feels like home. You can see the full size and mini jersey cows waiting for the day to start. Off in the distance there's a pond with fish. Once you make your way over to the ranch, you will find chickens wandering about, birds singing and the most adorable pygmy goats. Then there's a huge barn that makes the perfect setting for any special gathering. A bride to be's dream come true! The space is rustic and full of decoration possibilities. Whether you want your occasion to be elegant or straight out of a western movie or anything in between, it can happen at Rolling Raven Ranch. They also have events that you can attend without the whole stay experience. Look them up and stay connected for upcoming schedule. I will warn you though -you will want and need more. We have now stayed here three times in the last six months. Each time was a new and different experience. The first time there were other guests there for the event we were attending and that's when we made new friends. We have also brought family members, which included some of our grandchildren. We have made memories here that I know they will cherish forever. My next goal is a family reunion and then I hope and pray for one of my adult children to have a wedding at this most heavenly place. I love it that much! I want all of my family and friends to experience this greatness!

We're not in a ghost town, were at a garden. This garden is special because you can buy many of the plants. Some of them are not for sale, like that big palo verde on the north side of the lot. There are shade trees, benches, rare plants you wouldn't expect to find here, and about 5 greenhouses and outdoor nursery areas. Often the nursery plants don't have individual prices, but you can find a key by the door to the greenhouse. The size of the pot tells you the price! I have been here twice, and I've learned something both times. I'm taking my impressions home to help me decide how to landscape my property. Meanwhile, I'm working up a budget, because I have seen how much the plants cost here. For example, a big barrel cactus may cost $100 or more, but a little barrel cactus may cost $30 or less. Am I willing to wait a couple of years for the little cactus to grow into a big cactus? Time will tell.

It is such a huge winery/ranch that has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating plus animals and garden spaces. If we could've stayed here for 2 hours, we would have but unfortunately I think we were only here for a little less than 1 hour due to the drive and the other wineries we visited. The garden spaces were luxurious with a lake and a path to walk. The animals were so cute. There were sheep and a very friendly donkey among them. The wine was, of course, tasty and we enjoyed the fact that there was a small food truck on site that had other items for purchase. My friends and I had a really nice time here just exploring, relaxing and being together.

Park near the Performing Arts Center and walk to the south side to enter the walking path. There is a large collection of sculptures of every style from natural stone to metal, bronze and mixed media. The pathway is suitable for disabled access and weaves through a variety of well labeled trees, shrubs and flowers. If you want to add a short ~1.5 mile hike, head down to the gravel lined walking path on the west side. This path starts out through the well shaded creek bed, then traverses to the west side of the college where the ball fields are located. After crossing through the ball fields, turn right and head on the path through the natural area just outside of the VA complex and north of the college. You get interesting views of the historical VA buildings as well as views of Thumb Butte and the mountains to the west. After the VA, the trail heads above the northeast portion of the campus before looping back around to the south. To get back to your car, walk through the beautifully landscaped campus buildings to the parking lot near the Performing Arts Center.

You can sense their love of their community (the two that we spoke to have lived the majority of their lives there) and their knowledge of the displays is quite impressive. No, it's not the Smithsonian, but - if you are interested in the history of the places you visit - it's well worthwhile to spend an hour or so learning about the area and it's economic ups and downs. There is no admission and it's run by volunteers, but please toss a few bucks into the jar by the entrance and sign their guest book. How often do you visit a museum and find the docents proudly showing their relatives in the H.S. graduation class portraits from the 1950's? One of the docents is 93 and her sidekick is 83 (not *quite* 84). Their interpersonal banter rivals that of some comedians. Their presence added a dimension to the entire experience that is irreplaceable.
