Amazing experience over a long weekend. Lots of activities and things to do in and in and around the ranch. The rooms are great, actually more like an apartment with living room, terrace, and walk in closet. And, it's the most dog friendly hotel we've ever stayed in! We could take our labradoodle even to the very nice Valley Kitchen restaurant.!

Very helpful staff from check-in to check-out. The restaurant staff especially were so good with our small child. The facilities were fantastic, can't recommend the lap pool enough. We were upgraded to a vineyard view room with an outdoor soaking tub which was incredible.

Staff friendly when you get them, but seems to be light on staff for shuttles, room service and general inquiries. Also do not stock mini fridge which seems odd now a a days. Landed and to get water sent to room would have taken 1hr 45mins. Online order/scheduling, no one would pick up phone… they also gave another family our room so had a little surprise when we were getting ready.. beautiful property but a lot of low hanging fruit to be a great one
