    • star rating  A dream ranch vacation exceeding all expectations! - From the charmingly appointed rustic cabins to the farm to table exceptional homemade meals and deserts, this ranch exceeded any expectations I might have had. All the activities are scheduled... read more so carefully that I was able to participate in everything I wanted to do. Their horses are very well cared for, well behaved and trained. No swaybacked trail nags here! The up to date whitewater rafts and staff were all very knowledgeable and safety oriented. The shooting involved expert SAFE instruction and a revolving set of varied experiences with different weapons. The children in attendance had the time of their lives as did this 74 year old horsewoman! The ranch is self sufficient ( off the grid) and well off the beaten path. A real community developed amongst the guests under the guidance and warm personalities of Heidi and Doug. The 30 plus years of love and devotion to the upkeep of the natural beauty of their ranch showed in the gardens and plantings of flowers and trees in abundance. Even the gaggle of teenaged sisters spent less time in the lodge (the only WiFi) than one would have imagined! A fun and deeply relaxing time in nature was had by all. I will definitely be back again! Happy Trails!

    • star rating  One Amazing Week @ Marble Mountain Ranch - If you are considering a family vacation and are lucky enough to have stumbled upon Marble Mountain Ranch, just do yourself a favor and stop here and book it! We... read more were initially unsure when considering a dude ranch/rafting vacation, if the experience would live up to the cost. All four of us (parents early 40’s and kids early teens) were blown away by the vacation experience. Absolutely delivered on value, and exceeded our expectations. It should be noted that any experience level can come out and enjoy these outdoor activities my wife for example had never rafted, never been on a horse, never shot a gun, and she had a lot of fun and really enjoyed herself.

      A beautiful remote setting, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday city life, where you park your car and let it collect dust for the entire week, everything else is taken care of. A family owned/operated ranch, where you can stay busy with fun activities all day long, or just relax in the mountains if that is more your speed. We wanted to be going all day everyday rafting the rapids, horseback trail riding/lessons, waterfall hiking, target and trap shooting, archery and ax throwing, fly fishing, zip line, and making new friends. Immersing ourselves in Marble Mountain Ranch and eating up the many stories Doug & Heidi shared of their life/rafting/ranch journey. Speaking of eating, all the meals are prepared for you fresh on site, and both Heidi and Doug are excellent cooks. We were thankful to have picked up Heidi’s cookbook and have re-lived several amazing meals since arriving back home after our trip. Those tastes will take us back to Marble Mountain Ranch each time we whip up another dish.

      Lodging was nice, with a cozy cabin in the middle of the property. Plenty of beds in two bedrooms, two bathrooms, kitchen with fridge/stove/sink, breakfast table inside and front porch table outside. After all the fun outdoors, we slept well each night. For those needing to keep a finger on the work pulse, WiFi was available at the main building, and I was able to take care of calls/check email without any issues all week.

      If we could rate this 10-stars, I would. Hopeful that more folks find this review and make the decision to head out to Marble Mountain Ranch.

    • star rating  Just book it - a real memory making week - There are not enough superlatives to describe what an amazing place Marble Mountain Ranch is, nor how lovely the family and staff are. Once I found the location from... read more the website and calculated the cost of everything, including travel from the UK and then internally in the US, it was a pretty packet but it was SO worth it as there were no extras to worry about at all. All the activities, riding, shooting and rafting are done with superb professionalism and despite the riding and rafting having some degree of risk, we were all safe at all times. As a horse rider myself the riding was tame but watching my family riding every day and enjoying themselves more than made up for it. They were also the only ranch I came across where riding hats were compulsory - this was a BIG tick in my box. We all learnt so much about guns from Doug and had a literal blast at the range. The rafting was really fun (even for those like myself, who are not fans of water) and the hike to the waterfall was almost as exciting in places. My children (17 and 18) loved the independence of travelling by kayak down pretty much most of the river sections - apart from one or two more challenging sections when they got in the raft. The food was delicious, we loved the wood branding and smores towards the end of the week too, and of course Doug's stories. I don't think there was once aspect of the place I would change. Doug and Heidi really are the hosts with the most, and although everything is super slick, it never feels like they are going through the motions. Do not hesitate!
