First, eat at Cattlemans, then after a wonderful meal that leaves you satisfied but not feeling gluttonous - take a walk to Indian Cliffs Ranch with your food receipt (that is your free ticket) to see the animals, deer, rabbits, lots of rabbits (wondering what they are doing?) and snakes, and ram. I think they were rams? (What is the plural of ram?) After seeing the animals, enjoy the maze. But the BEST part of all is the Swiss Family Robinson style treehouse play area. WOW. This playhouse is a thing of beauty. It has little secret rooms, swings made out of tires (no, not that kind, check out my photo) fast and slow slides and carpet around some of the wood beams to protect little (or big) noggins when you forget to duck. YEEHAW! read more

This review is for the wedding and event venue portion of the ranch: This venue is BEAUTIFUL. The only reason they are getting 3 stars is b/c of the woman in charge of coordinating events. I believe her name is Carmen. We had our wedding ceremony and reception here. Everyone employee working during our wedding day was wonderful except Carmen. From the day we toured the venue she gave us the run around. We were constantly Locke sour when we had appointments to be there with our wedding planner. She tried to charge us for things that were not in the contract. She even left the venue locked the day of the wedding. My weddingbegan at 6 and by 4:30 it was locked and my wedding planner was livid b/c they needed to set up but Carmen insisted it was her day off which is unacceptable when we have signed a contract to be there the day of. We signed for a two ticket/guest bar and paid out of pocket upon signing the contract. However, Carmen failed to tell us that we would have an additional tab b/c drinks are worth different amount of tickets. This ruined my husbands mood in the middle of our day b/c we got slammed with a $500+ bar bill when we had no idea this would be happening. We also were made to pay for an additional bartender but both bartenders were under age with zero bar tending experience and only one of the two bartenders were even doing anything. The other simply watched his underage partner attempt to make some poorly made drinks. This was very frustrating and we had to close the bar mid-reception b/c we could not afford this unpredictable expense that was not outlined in our contract. This venue has so much potential and it is gorgeous and everyone except Carmen and the underage bartenders were amazing and helpful. Unfortunately, If Carmen continues with this venue, other events and other people will continue to be disappointed and frustrated on a day that is supposed to be the greatest and happiest day of their lives. Carmen should be released from this company and this company/venue will be capable of so much more. read more
