Italian night was not a great change. The food was mediocre. Go back to fajita night instead. I did a morning hike from 7-9:30am. Concerned about getting breakfast, I asked at the front desk the night before and they assured me I would be able to get breakfast when I got back. There was no food available before we left at 7, and when we returned all that was available was soggy cut fruit and tiny containers of cereal. Not enough for a hot day after a long hike. Even after a good lunch, I felt bad the entire day and had to cancel my afternoon ride because I felt like I might pass out. This ruined the whole rest of my day at a very expensive dude ranch. I didn't get to ride one of my days- at a dude ranch!- because of the lack of food available. When I complained, all I got was a "thanks for letting us know and we'll try to do better" response that felt insincere.

The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. There was a slight mix up with a private ride we had scheduled, but the ranch's response exceeded our expectations and we ended up having the best trail ride of our visit. I've been riding my whole life and my husband has limited riding experience. Although we weren't able to fit in the more intensive rides this trip, we both had a fantastic time on our walk rides. The horses were well taken care of, well trained, and fun to learn about. The highlights of our activities were the trail rides, cowboy cookout, pickleball clinic and spa service. The dog house saloon became a favorite spot to grab drinks and play pool after dinner. We had a wonderful time and would recommend it to anyone looking for a mixture of relaxation, adventure and authenticity.

There are a wide assortment of rooms. Last time we had a nice Casita. This time we were in a smaller room, but it still had a wood-burning fireplace, which was so cozy on chilling evenings, The property is beautiful, the trail rides are wonderful and the desert landscape is stunning. It is such a treat to be around and ride the horses. We also went on great walks, hikes. They also have tons of activities I'd like to try next time, like pickleball, tennis, archery, fishing, etc. The pool area and Jacuzzi is so relaxing and beautiful. My husband loved the saloon, and it was a fun watering hole for happy hour. I was doing Dry January, and the bartender made me a tasty mocktail, and we met some nice people. The food was very good. We were there for Friday prime rib night, which was awesome, and loved the salad and soup bar. Looking forward to our next trip and hope to bring more family or friends next time!

We arrived to Courtland on a Sunday morning at 10 am. My sister (and her family), my parents, and my family were greeted by Michael and Cindy. They ensured we were properly prepared for our adventure. Anything lacking, Michael had extras. As we walked down the from the outdoor gazebo, my sister found a dime from 1900; her find was promptly photographed. We learned that the dime and her name would be added to the Courtland museum. We made our way into downtown Courtland, the adults were treated to a history lesson while the three children went with Cindy on a scavenger hunt. Cindy had many surprises for the kids as they built up their rock collections. While on our walk we saw evidence of ancient Hohokam presence in Courtland. The tour ended with a visit into an old mine. We then set up lunch in the gazebo and enjoyed time with the family. As our day wrapped up, Michael had one more surprise. The Gleeson jail was open this weekend, we had one more stop. On our way to the jail, we detoured and Michael showed us where the Courtland cemetery was. Our adventure into Courtland was amazing. My entire family was impressed with the history and activities. Thank you Michael and Cindy for taking such great care of us all.
