Stables

Once an actual horse stable for the the cattle ranch, Stables was restored as the quintessential Western bunk room. With two sets of twin bunk beds and a king bed, there is space for a family adventure or children’s sleepover. This accommodation is beloved by family reunions and group vacations, because children are safely tucked away in the Stables, while couples take private, but adjoining accommodations, Wrangler or Loft.
Stables offers a spacious full bathroom with two separate showers and a cozy sitting area with a game table and ample seating for socializing. Outside, relax on the covered porch enjoying sweeping ranchland views or strike up a family game on the manicured lawn.
