“I loved everything about my stay. Quiet, calm, and relaxing. The host was kind and generous and went above and beyond. The ranch house was large and peaceful. A really nice setting on the ranch too. I highly recommend and hope to be back next year. “ — Alex, March 2022

“Fun weekend for our kids at "The Ranch", double meaning since this is what locals call Rancho Santa Fe, and this cute guest house is on a horse ranch that is an animal rescue.” — Holly, Feb 2022

“I would give Kassie and Celia (ranch owner) 10 stars. Laughing Pony Ranch is hands down one of the most special places I've been fortunate to stay. I didn't know what to expect, but upon arriving Celia greeted my family warmly. She had Country Western music playing on the Alexa, showed us the Wifi Router, and even had some welcoming cereals and snacks. The space is well equipped for all your needs, plenty of storage, appliances, and more, although I ventured 20 minutes to the beach each day. At night I came back to an extra-large king bed with a comfortable pillow top. On two mornings I was signed up to volunteer with the horses.

What Celia does is incredible. There need to be more people like her in this world! Since the horses are sensitive to their abused pasts, I was offered visiting hours to take my daughter around. The goat and sheep cracked us up.

I'll always have a special place in my heart for Laughing Pony Ranch!” — Meg, Feb 2022

“I stayed at Celia's place for nearly one month while I transitioned to San Diego to begin a new job from out of state. I can't begin to convey my gratitude and the transformative experience that occurred for me during this time. This is a horse and animal-lovers paradise! There are over 17 animals on the ranch, and if you're interested enough, Celia will share as much information and education with you about the rescue efforts made to save these beautiful creatures' lives. The unit is lovely, and basically a one-bedroom apartment-style attachment with a luxurious king-bed, giant bathroom and hot shower. There is a full kitchen, daybed/sofa, and even a desk to work from home, etc... Celia is an amazing host and will help accommodate your needs as best she can. If you grew up in the suburbs or the city, there is nothing like waking up to the raw sights/sounds/smell of nature to get you back into balance! I cannot recommend this stay enough, and remember, that staying here is not only a fun, peaceful experience, but a direct contribution to the beautiful work of saving horses from torture and abuse, so, it's a win-win! Looking forward to my next visit at LPR soon.” — Nita, Jan 2022

“Absolutely loved are stay very peaceful quiet and relaxing. The host was more than accommodating and attentive could not ask for better service. We loved the experience of meeting the horses and there stories and support the host rescue efforts. Overall a amazing stay with great restaurants only 15 minutes away too absolutely recommend.” — Christian, Jan 2022
