Fabulous Ranch

I needed a place near Spruce Mountain venue for my daughter's wedding. I had to house my band and their wives. This property was perfect! There were 8 of us, but we had plenty of space and the garage was awesome for rehearsal. Everyone loved the views, the wildlife and the short distances to restaurants and other conveniences. Also, RenFest was close by!
