Testimonials

Family Fun

Again we enjoyed our week at deer Valley Ranch. We rented three cabins with a total of 20 people in our family. The ages range from under one year to over 70. Everybody had something they could enjoy and do. Some of our favorites are walking the trails, riding the horses, rafting, square dance, eating delicious meals, Enjoying one of the two hot springs pools, relaxing around the pool.

WOW WOW WOW šŸ˜‰

We came to visit Deer Valley Ranch for the first timed we will be back – that is for sure. The staff does an amazing job. The horse rides are perfect. They have not only many excellent trained horses but also many excellent trained mules, too. On many days they are bringing the guests and horses/mules out with trailer to awesome places – waterfalls – beautiful sceneries – really interesting places. We can 100% recommend Deer Valley Ranch.

A wonderful experience I will never forget!

I was just at Deer Valley Ranch last week, and it was a wonderful experience! They offered many activities such as mountain biking, hiking, rock repelling, horseback riding, and whitewater rafting! It is located at the base of chalk cliffs so the views are picturesque!

There is truly magic in the air

There is truly magic in the air at Deer Valley Guest Ranch. Stunning views ample outdoor fun for those with any activity level. My husband goes for long hikes/runs in the mountains, my sons like to zipline or white water raft. Otjer times we spend time at the pool, or feed the Chipmunks in nearby St. Elmo. I have been to Deer Valley at least a dozen times in the last 30 years, and each time is unique, fun, and memorable

It might be my favorite place in the world Designation

I have been coming to Deer Valley since I was an infant. Now my own children are old enough to ride horses, hike mountains, feed Chipmunks by hand, and fall in love with Deer Valley I’m their own right. It might be my favorite place in the world, stress melts away in the pine air and stunning views.
