We had a sibling weekend at Double Bore Ranch. It was a great property. We especially enjoyed the deck and fire pit. Enjoyed that the property was remote but still close to town.

Great family vacation!

We had a family of 13 staying at the property. The property was well maintained, the kitchen was very well stocked with supplies, the hiking trails were enjoyed by everyone. There were many things to do in the surrounding area. We spent five nights and never ran out of things to do.

Our Favorite Getaway!

Third time at the Ranch and it just keeps getting better. This trip, we had four generations together—coffee on the porch, walks in the wilderness, and quick trips into town. Peaceful, beautiful, and unforgettable. Can't wait to come back!
