THE LONG HOUSE
The Long House and its inviting patio gather the ranch community for breakfast, lunch and supper each day. The setting is casual and conversational. Indoor tables and outdoor picnic tables seat 8 – 10 people per table, plus patio seating with heaters provides space to spread out.
- Fireplaces anchor the dining and sitting room ends of the Long House, creating ambiance and warmth
- Patio heaters invite outdoor dining.
- Guests are welcome to bring wine or other beverages to the dining room or entertain in their cabins, as the ranch does not have a bar.
- Beer, wine and soft drinks are available for sale in the ranch office store.
BREAKFAST
The day begins with the pleasure of choosing your ideal breakfast. Upon arrival you’ll be tempted by fresh warm morning baked goods, steel cut oats with toppings, cereals, fruit, yogurt, juices and of course hot coffee, tea or cocoa.
The hot breakfast menu features breakfast classics ~ eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes and toast or french toast from home-made bread ~ plus a southwestern twist in the form of huevos rancheros with fresh pico de gallo.
LUNCH
The lunch buffet includes fresh fruit and vegetables and an entree. All day rides are offered two days each week where you may eat lunch on the trail; and everyone gathers for the Saturday desert picnic. Save room for the enticing tray of fresh cookies and famous Saturday picnic brownies!
SUPPER
Supper entrees feature a thoughtful balance of protein, carbohydrates and vegetables accompanied by salad and fresh baked bread followed by dessert.
