Beautiful stay
Anthony and Cass are beautiful people, who were so warm and welcoming. Their land is gorgeous and the cabin very cute and cosy. Having a sheltered fire pit was great and it was so much fun taking our dog swimming in the pond with their dogs 🐕 ❤️ and if you leave your truck lights on all night and completely drain your battery, they will come to the rescue and help jump start your car 🤣🤣 definitely recommend!

Campfire experience without camping
Group trip
Our stay at GG's ranch was great. Anthony and Cas were super friendly and met us on arrival and gave us a thorough tour of the place and a bit of its history.
There aren't many places to stay with so much character - it was great being able to stay in rooms with showers but also have the campfire right there to sit around and chat at night.
They've done a great job doing up the place while retaining some of the quirks and character of the original homestead.
We'd absolutely recommend staying here and we would come back again.
A couple of "heads up" to set expectations:
- We had 6 adult guests. It's a tiny bit misleading to say 3 bedrooms. The third room is more like a common area with a mattress on the floor. Whoever is staying in the upstairs area has to walk through that space to enter/exit. Also whoever is staying on the floor mattress either needs to walk through the upstairs room to access the toilet/shower or they need to walk a small distance outside along the veranda to the main house to use the toilet/shower.
- One big oversight is not having blinds/curtains for the upstairs loft room. As soon as the sun peeks over the horizon in the morning it's blasting you directly in the face.
- Finally, the wheelie bins are kept up a steep driveway at the gate. So once the small bin under the sink is full it's a 5-10 minute walk up the hill. I'm guessing it's to keep animals away from the house, but just something to be aware of .

Peaceful place to disconnect
With kids
GG’s Ranch was just what we were after - peaceful, remote, disconnected. The cabin has been beautifully restored, and it’s very comfortable, with modern amenities. The Hosts were very welcoming. We’d love to stay here again one day.

Such a great place to stay. Anthony and Cass are welcoming and friendly. The cabins are quiet and secluded. So comfortable with all of the special touches. The horse lessons were a really great experience for our girls and great to see people with such love and respect for their animals. You really could not find a better place for surroundings and experience. Congratulations Cass and Anthony for what you have achieved.
