⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing All-Inclusive Horse Ranch Experience! Southern Cross Guest Ranch is a dream come true for horse lovers! 🐎 From the moment you arrive, you're welcomed with warm Southern hospitality. The rooms are charming and themed like a classic Southern horse farm — cozy, clean, and full of character. The food? Absolutely delicious! Every meal — breakfast, lunch, and dinner — is prepared with Southern pride and love. There's great variety and everything is full of flavor. The horses are stunning and clearly cared for with passion. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced rider, the skilled staff make sure you feel confident and safe. Daily riding schedules are well-organized and tailored to your comfort level. The entire experience — beautiful horses, friendly staff, amazing food, and peaceful surroundings — makes this ranch a truly wonderful getaway. Highly recommended!

We took a trail ride as a party of four—my girlfriend and I, along with another couple. As an experienced rider, I was really looking forward to getting back on a horse. Having worked at similar places in the past, though, I know how strict they can be with rules and how boring these rides can sometimes feel. Fortunately, our guide, Bryce Pearson, did a great job of maximizing the fun while keeping safety in mind. Bryce led us through the trails, opened all the gates for us, and kept us well entertained. He was knowledgeable and polite—I’d recommend him as a guide to anyone!

If you like animals, the outdoors, delicious food, and serious R&R, this is the perfect place for you and your entire family. Came here for the first time over the 4th of July weekend and we already can't wait to come back!! The horse rides were so great, and don't worry if you are a beginner, the horses are so gentle and sweet and they have guides that teach you how to trail ride. The food was so delicious and plentiful. They put on an impressive fireworks show for the 4th of July. Everyone was super friendly too. I just love that we found a place like this!

We had a fantastic time! The atmosphere is very relaxing. It was our first time horseback riding, and I was a bit nervous, but the whole family had a great time. Natasha was fantastic as a trail guide. There was also a young man working at the stables who was so kind to my girls. Lazy kitties, cute corgis, and of course beautiful horses. What more could 2 young girls ask for? We are looking forward to returning.

Spend one night in on the ranche with my cousin and took a horse back ride in the morning. The ranch is a lovely place with cute animals everywhere and very nice staff. The breakfast was very "american", well prepared with a good variety. Pool was nice too and I guess for children a lot stuff to do and to explore. The staff at the barn was very kind and helpful. There is one things which was not that great: the room had a bad smell (we didn't tell them so probably we would have gotten a different one). About the ride: all the horses have their own equipment and it is in very good condition. You can get a helmet if wanted. It was extremely hot but we rode in the forest where the temperature was surprisingly moderate. The guide was super nice and took care that everyone was comfortable and horses would not get to hot. Two things to complain about: the hoves of some horses were in poor shape. In addition my horse had a small but open wound from the saddle before the ride. I told the staff but they only put a little ointment on it after the ride. Also her back was not 100% well. All in all this is a very nice guest ranch with very nice trails but some room for improvement. Especially for inexperienced riders I would recommend it. But please take better care of the hoves and check the AC 😉
