I loved that it was very family friendly. Staff was excellent a couple of suggestions : not enough staff for some areas. There was only one attendant at the coffee shop on a Sunday morning. Even it was hard for her to keep up, she was pleasant with her interactions. Many of the paved areas were not smooth with stone surfaces. This is hard for wheelchairs. Beautiful but not practical. If have no mobility issues and love cowboy/ country fair, this is lovely. I will book again.

We could not check into the room until after 6:00pm, after it was inspected. There were not enough staff to help at peak check-in. We were underwhelmed when we entered our "suite". The floor was dirty so we cleaned it with damp paper towels, the closet door was off the track (my husband fixed it), the night stand drawers were stuck & the bathroom was small. We also found a dirty diaper under a bed. We couldn't get a drink while waiting for the room because the Saloon is only open Fri. & Sat., the new restaurant opens on Tues. & the Smokehouse only has beer and wine in cans. Even the bar in reception was closed. We never saw the Graze food truck. We've never been to any resort where there wasn't enough staff to keep the restaurants open and this is tourist season. The next day we went to Wild Florida safari, stopped at Publix & brought food back. I don't go on vacation to cook and clean. On the plus side our grandson enjoyed the cowboy park, arcade & putt putt. When we returned from Wild safari, the room had not been tidied & nor had the towels been replaced. We had to ask for clean towels. We will not recommend the resort to our friends.

This is a great place to stay on Friday and Saturday. After Saturday night rodeo there is almost nothing else to do on the resort. The bar is closed after 12 pm on Sunday and reservations are extremely limited at their restaurant. James at trap and skeet made the entire experience worth it. If you have a reservation at the restaurant don’t bother trying to get there sooner as Heather will just be rude and make you wait until your reservation time. The bar seemed to be understaffed all night and was very slow. The check in process can also be very lengthy so be prepared for that. All in all, River Ranch is a great place to stay if you book activities and arrive on a Friday and plan to leave early Sunday. Note restaurant times and closures and be prepared to seek alternatives.
