We loved the cabin, and the ranch! I grew up on a farm with horses so I loved being around the horses and ducks and geese and chickens! The pigs were so fun to watch and we loved Walter the Turkey! Everything was clean and tidy!
Matt Dillion was a convient place to stay with our dogs. Overall is was a pleasant stay. Owner is very nice. Glad they installed air conditioners before our stay. I'm sure that is a great improvement. Cabin has everything you need for a weekend get a way with your dogs, but does need some improvements. Our cabin had a roof leek at one point, the outside must have been fixed, but the inside corner of the ceiling has not been repaired. So there is a quite large drooping ceiling, very visible. Also the driveway into the ranch is washed out in many areas into where the cabins are located. We have a Subaru so it was doable, but any low vehicle or small car would definitely have issues.
We had a good stay, just needs some improvements.
Hi Elizabeth, we’re glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Matt Dillion Ranch. After connecting with the homeowner, they wanted to provide some context:
- The ceiling damage you mentioned is from a past roof leak. Repairs have been attempted but additional work is still pending due to external challenges.
- The driveway has experienced some wear and tear due to heavy rains. While most of the road has been repaired, the homeowner is aware of the remaining issues and is continuing to address them as conditions allow.
- We encourage guests to contact their guest contact while they are in residence with any issues. The homeowner would be happy to move you to another available cabin.
We’re happy to hear that the cabin worked well for a weekend getaway with your dogs, and we appreciate your feedback as the homeowner continues to make improvements. Thanks again, and we hope you keep us in mind for your future travels!
This was our first time at urban saddle ranch and we r planning a trip back with our son. We went for 3 days 2 nights for our anniversary and it was the best trip we ever had.
