Great stay.
We had a very enjoyable stay at the ranch. The owners were very personable an accommodating. Lots of wildlife and world class fishing nearby. Great place to stay for whatever reason you are in Saratoga.
What an unbelievable experience! "So much more than you bargin for" is an understatement. The property is gorgeous and the hospitality is unmatched. If I could give a rating of 10 stars out of 5 I would.
We loved this cute bunkhouse - and how close it was to downtown Saratoga and the hot springs. The hosts were so nice and we so enjoyed the horses. A great getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life!
Very welcoming place with everything you need for a small vacation stay. These are high quality hosts no doubt.

Perfect home away from home.
Warm and cozy guesthouse in a very quiet location. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Conveniently located close to phenomenal fishing and charming town of Saratoga. I plan on returning next year!
This was my second time staying at Bob and Sierra's VRBO. There is plenty of room to relax, a GREAT view and a fire pit right out front. There was plenty of room to park my raft to float the river. Bob and Sierra are fantastic hosts, the best I have ever had in a VRBO
The house had everything we needed to cook meals and hang out as a family. The hosts have thought of everything someone may want or need. I highly recommend this property and I hope to visit again!
Really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful setting. The guest house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Hosts were very informative about the history of the area and things to see and do. Lots of wonderful hiking trails and two excellent museums highlighting the history of the area. Plan to return for more hiking and exploring.
Our 3 day visit to Saratoga and surrounds was great but it was our stay with Sierra that made the trip wonderful. She is a very warm, accessible hostess who we enjoyed spending time with and we learned a great deal about horses. The accommodations were perfect and lacked nothing. Our stay was peaceful and relaxing. I whole-heartedly recommend a stay at the Roan Ranch!
Such a quiet getaway with the most beautiful decor. Everything you would ever need is supplied. The hosts are amazingly knowledgeable about the surrounding area and make wonderful suggestions. We enjoyed spoiling the horses with treats and their sweet dog with throwing toys. The decor in the home is beautiful and hand made, everytime you walk into a room or the porch you find a new treasure. Bob and Sierra are a new blessing in our lives.
The host was amazing and very attentive. She helped us find out which restaurants in town were open. Great access to the hot springs and the host gave free robes to use. The wifi did not work for our entire stay
This property was exactly what the description covers. Sierra and Bob were the perfect hosts and we could not have asked for a more relaxing and delightful respite in the mountains. Everything was provided for our comfort and Sierra and Bob were generous with their local recommendations for interesting sites. We definitely would like to come and visit Saratoga again and enjoy the lovely hospitality at their guesthouse. Thank you so much!!
Sierra and Bob were wonderful!
Very accommodating and helpful. Our dog loved the horses.
We enjoyed our much needed weekend getaway and it was a lovely spot to do just that.
We enjoyed our stay with hosts Sierra and Bob. They are very knowledgeable about the area and interesting folks. The setting is beautiful and the accommodations were great- lots of room for the two of us. Rowdy and stick retrieval ( more like toothpick retrieval) were entertaining.

AWESOME
What a relaxing place to come to after a day of snow-mobiling. Got right out of our snow gear and into our swimsuits for a nice soak in the hot tub.. Quiet location but not far from restaurants and shops. Can't wait to go back this Spring/Summer! BTW loved the gas grill that's available and the full kitchen--really nice when you feel like just relaxing and not going out
My wife and I had a wonderful time staying at Bob & Sierra's Ranch property. The property is so relaxing with great views either sitting inside in the rocking chairs or sitting outside on the patio. We were so very comfortable with the accommodations. Bob & Sierra made us feel like old friends. They gave us restaurant recommendations and fishing hole tips. We are already looking forward to a return visit to this wonderful property and to reconnect with Bob & Sierra.
