J^barK Ranch House and Accommodations

Enjoy the magic of the California style ranch house which is embellished with collectibles and relics including some very fine Native American items and Western Art, with four double occupancy rooms and two full shared bathrooms available for guests.  We have an inground pool for hot summer days and a Jacuzzi spa to rejuvenate in after a big day out with the horses.  High speed internet for your personal computer, if you choose to bring one on your vacation.

Board for one horse is included.  Each horse will have its own pen or stall, cleaned two times per day, with our feed.  We feed Elk Grove Stable mix pelleted feed and grass or forage mix hay. Extra horses are an additional $25 per day.  Guests are welcome to come out early in the morning and help with feeding and cleaning.

Don't worry if you don't own a horse...
We have a large variety of levels of horses in our 'herd' to work and play with, depending on your goals, from young colts to seasoned ranch and trail horses.

Lodging
Your ranch stay fees include lodging.  There are 4 double occupancy rooms in the ranch house, and 2 full, shared bathrooms.

Meals
Breakfast and lunches are good and healthy.  At dinner time we all sit down and enjoy dinner together.  The ranch features natural ranch raised beef and lamb along with vegies in season from the ranch garden.
