They damaged the bar pretty bad. there is scratches and peck marks all over the side if the doors. I completely understand the birds run freely and we're on a farm but I think when your renting out airbnbs and there can be damage to your property there should be a safe parking area. There could have been a little bit more effort done from the Airbnb host to keep her renters leaving happy. Hopefully this doesn't happen to other guest.

We had the best time feeding the pigs, horses, cows and milking goats to then feed baby goats. We also got to see the growing grapes and learn about farm life. Could not recommend more!

We had the honor of celebrating our wedding at Rimrock Ranch on November 1st, and I cannot…read moreemphasize enough what an incredible experience we had. From our first meeting, Gwen made sure we were taken care of -- from a detailed list of recommended vendors (all of whom were amazing), so check-ins as we got closer to our date, being available as my stress started to spike, her rockstar team who welcomed us and made sure we had everything we needed -- and most of all, the most magical backdrop for our special day. Rimrock was perfect. We had about 120 guests, which felt like the perfect size for us. There was enough parking for all (we did encourage carpooling and pre-booking taxis just to be sure). We had several of our friends stay on the ranch with us, which made the weekend even more special. We held a welcome dinner Friday night, with about 40-50 people -- Ranch staff made sure we had plenty of adult beverages while we enjoyed everyone's company. The Hatch House was lovely, and the perfect spot for me and my ladies to get our hair and makeup done before the ceremony. And the ceremony location -- pure magic. The venue naturally created so many beautiful photo opportunities for our guests, with that gorgeous sunset leaving everyone in awe. Gwen even offered to let us take some wedding photos with one of her horses! Not too hot or cold, but they had plenty of blankets for anyone who needed one. By the time it was over, my gratitude was endless -- Gwen, Eric and their team took such good care of us, and I felt so happy with every single moment. Five stars, highly recommend!!! Love you, Rimrock!!

Every corner feels like something out of a fairytale, making it the perfect place for our daughter's wedding. What truly made the experience unforgettable, though, was Frankie. She is simply amazing. From the very beginning, she was kind, patient, organized, and incredibly knowledgeable about every aspect of planning a wedding. Her experience and relationships with trusted vendors made the entire process so much easier, and she always had thoughtful recommendations and solutions whenever we needed them. On the wedding day, everything flowed seamlessly. It was clear that every detail had been carefully planned and expertly managed. Because of Frankie's dedication and professionalism, our family was able to relax, be present, and enjoy every precious moment instead of worrying about logistics. Our daughter's wedding was everything we had dreamed of and more. We are so grateful to Frankie and everyone at Shay Meadow Ranch & Resort for creating such a beautiful, stress-free, and unforgettable day. If you're looking for a venue that is breathtaking, well-run, and filled with people who genuinely care about making your wedding perfect, I can't recommend Shay Meadow Ranch & Resort enough.

The scenery is out of this world, the owners and staff are so friendly and accommodating, the grounds are immaculate, and everywhere is so comfortable/clean. It is the best of both worlds for people who like the beauty and quiet of natural settings but don't like the hassle of being out in the sticks. It is a quick drive into town for shopping or activities if you come up for vacation. Plenty of air bnbs in the area as well for overflow guests. If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would in a heartbeat!
