The property was amazing! Everything felt brand new and beautifully done! The peaceful setting with the cows was perfect, and the kids in our group loved the hiking path and taking pictures on the tractor. Would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic stay! The house was clean, spacious, and perfect for our group. Everything felt brand new and very well done.We especially loved the hiking path down to the creek (about 1/4 to 1/2 mile each way)—our kids went multiple times and had a blast. It was such a unique feature and a great way to get outside and explore.The large dining table made it easy for everyone to gather together for meals, which was a big highlight. The setting is peaceful and private, but still close to Hershey and everything in the area.Would definitely stay again!

This is a completely honest and objective review! I usually don't leave long reviews, but feel compelled after such an amazing trip. DO NOT HESITATE to book this amazing house. We've stayed in many homes and areas for family gatherings, and this was by far our most comfortable and easiest stay. The house and beautiful property quickly became the focal point of the vacation. The kids loved the pool, hot tub, fire pit, hiking trail to the creek, and all the different areas in the house to hang out. The little ones played on the swing set and the lawn and loved watching the peaceful cows go about their day. The house itself is spotless and new, with every amenity (multiple fridges, Multiple laundry machines, beautiful appliances, huge tvs, all brand new). The pictures are accurate, but don't even fully do it justice: everything is comfortable, clean and in perfect condition. The house was very carefully restored and extended, with beautiful old exposed brick and wood, mixed with new modern farmhouse details. The layout is great for any family, and especially nice for trips with separate families or groups, with some rooms in separate areas. Mostly though, everything was outshone by the gracious hosts Mike and Candice. They are available if you need, but happy to keep a distance if you don't need them, and they clearly love hosting people in this beautiful home and making sure that they have a great stay. We would definitely book again if in the area.

We love sharing our home and ranch with families, and hearing how much everyone enjoyed the pool, hot tub, creek, cows, and all the little details makes all the work worthwhile. We’re so glad you had such a wonderful stay and would absolutely love to welcome your family back anytime! ❤️

We had a fantastic stay. The home was extremely clean, comfortable, and beautifully renovated while still keeping the character of the historic farmhouse. Everything felt fresh, new, and very thoughtfully designed for groups and families.What really stood out was the setting. It’s peaceful, private, and unlike a typical rental property. The walking trail down to the creek was one of our favorite parts of the trip, and the open views of the farm made it feel relaxing from the moment we arrived. The kids loved seeing the cows and exploring outside.The location was also perfect for our weekend. It was an easy drive to Hershey attractions, Chocolate World, restaurants, and shopping, while still giving us a quiet place to come back to at the end of the day. The large gathering spaces inside made it easy for everyone to spend time together comfortably.The hosts were very responsive and helpful throughout the stay, and you can tell they put a lot of care into the property. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Hershey area.

Note: This honest review was written with no input or pressure from the hosts. We are not related to the owners and have no financial ties to them. This charming, beautifully and thoughtfully renovated house delighted all 7 adults and 2 children for a weeks visit. The photos in the listing are accurate. Hershey park is a 15 minute drive away. The house is very clean, spacious, and well located, with a great layout for multigenerational family. The care and comfort of renters is evident everywhere. The pool, playscape, bedroom/bathroom configurations, kitchen, dining, and family spaces are well designed. With two refrigerators, it was a delight to cook and eat in the well stocked kitchen. Our hosts could not have been more responsive, helpful, and easy to work with from beginning to end. As a city girl, my only concern was an unfavorable wind shift relating to cattle smell. The "moos" as our granddaughter called them, visited daily with no issue at all. Our hosts even gave us a hilarious tip on how to provide a treat for the animals. It was wonderful to eat, sleep and play here. Our family has gathered together for summer vacations for many years. Truthfully, our stay at Luxury Angus Ranch Estate has been the best. This was a five star experience. We were so much happier to vacation in a rental that could accommodate everyone's needs easily and graciously, just a short drive from Hershey and several other local attractions like the Automobile Museum and nature centers.

It was an absolute pleasure hosting your family, and we would be honored to welcome you back to Ricker Angus Ranch anytime. ❤️

AMAZING property! 10 adults & 2 twin 4 year olds had a wonderful time at this wonderful home! 4 days of wonderment & relaxation from swimming in the pool to watching the beautiful cows it truly was one of our best vacations. Pictures do not do this property justice, it is more beautiful in person. Michael & Candice are amazing hosts and welcomed us to their ranch, which made us feel right at home. A great couple who made our trip even more memorable This home is very special and we were so lucky to have had time with it!If you’re looking for a place where you feel comfortable and welcoming, this is it! Also the location is great. We will definitely be back to Ricker Ranch, which to us is a little piece of heaven

This property was everything we could’ve possibly asked for! We used it as a team home for a weeklong competition at the farm expo. Everyone agreed it was absolutely perfect. We used every bit of the house - indoors and outdoors - huge comfy couch, game room, pool, hot tub, fire pit, and hiking trail. We had extra folks over for dinner and easily fit at the dining room table. All of the small touches made a huge difference - farm fresh eggs, s’mores sticks, ice machine, coffee bar, even wiping down all of the outdoor furniture on our day of arrival! Two sets of washers & dryers plus an extra fridge were a huge bonus for our group. The place was clean and well-stocked. Check-in and all communications were easy! The location was super convenient - we checked out several of the recommended restaurants. And even with all the amazing amenities, the cows were our fave :) Well done, Mike & Candice - thank you!!!
