Another great stay at Sunset Ranch

My husband and I stayed at Sunset Ranch in 2020 and had a great stay...so much so we booked it again. This place is located in the neighborhood but feels very secluded on the acre lot and you're facing an open plain with a beautiful view and a great opportunity to catch some amazing sunsets. This place is well appointed throughout, too many great things to list. The listing gives a great detailed description. We appreciate the builtin indoor/outdoor speakers, dark roast coffee beans, great lighting, usb plugins, comfy bed, and a great shower! Thank you Jim for creating a great gem of a place to stay at. We hope to return again in the future!

Marathon casita

Amazing place! Small, quaint house, but it was enough space for 2 adults and our little ones. Loved the Bluetooth speaker set up through out the house and outside in the patio. Made s'mores in the chimenea both nights, that our kiddos loved. Couldn't see stars because of overcast weather, but thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Will definitely return to this hidden gem 😁
