My wife and I attended Rockin R Ranch with our 4 children Saturday night. As it might be relevant, our children are ages ten, eight, five, and two. With an overall rating of 3 ½ spurs out of 4, I would recommend Rockin R Ranch to friends, family, snowbird, and anyone else who wants something to do for fun on a Saturday night. Authentic cowboy entertainment, great food, and a gun fight at the end, this is a can’t miss experience.\r

As we entered the gates and passed through a tunnel, it is as if we were transported in time back about 100 years to the old west. We enjoyed panning for gold, a traveling mystic show, and a traveling medicine show just as it may have been 100 years ago. Then dinner. Dinner was served ranch hand style. It was BBQ at its finest with large portions fit for a working cowboy. Following the four star dinner, a musical show in the tradition of old the west. The fiddler was AMAZING and don’t missing the yodeling… it is something special. The show is interactive, you might be called on stage. My family sang with the band Rudolf the Red-nosed reindeer for the holiday portion of the show. My eight year said that was the highlight of her life! After the singing is done, watch out for the gun fight between the saloon and the corral. Finish the night off with a batch of Sweet Mary’s Home Made Ice Cream…delicious.\r

By definition, it is a working ranch, a ranch where people work… for more than a 100 years the ranch has transformed from a cattle ranch to horse breeding ranch (which they still do) while adding entertainment as a natural way to share this life with the public. \r

Rockin R Ranch is truly an experience of authentic old western life for the whole family. Be prepared for several hours of cowboy fun! \r
