We were given a lovely cabin that slept 8 (even though there were only 2 of us). The views were incredible - mountains all around, trees, snow and deer. The cabin was fully equipped with everything you would need to spend months there. The living room furniture was pretty worn down and uncomfortable but it was all very clean and... More

Deer Valley Ranch is a FABULOUS choice for families. Situated in the "banana belt" (that is, mild climate) of the dramatic Chalk Cliffs and mountain peaks, DVR offers non-stop choices of activities for all ages. Or, when you're ready to relax, you can simply lounge by the pool or sit on the deck and watch the deer graze on the... More

The moment you drive onto the Ranch, you realize this is not the normal vacation. You are greated by a friendly staff that gives a five-star hotel a run for its money, and the experience is timeless. Time literally stands still. The scerenity and beauty of the mountains allow you to forget the distractions and demands of a busy career.... More

There are so many planned activities every day you have to choose. That is perfect for us because some of us prefer to ride the horses and mules, some prefer... More

Deer Valley Ranch was the nicest 3-day get-away spots our family has taken. Beautiful mountain setting, clean roomy cabins and a great launch pad for hikes and bike riding. Highly recommended. Great service, as well.

When my wife and I took a road trip in 2009 to locate a place to take the whole family for a week's vacation in 2010. We had no doubt in our minds where we wanted to go. We had looked at some nice resorts and one other dude ranch, but we both agree that Deer Valley Ranch got the... More

The website made this place look spectacular. It was a nice quiet place, but not as it was represented. The horses can't be ridden year-round, the "hot spring" that they say they have.... wow.... Hotspring is the brand name of the hot-tub! The fishing is not on the property, the hiking is not on the property. The facility was being... More

There is something for all ages at Deer Valley. The ranch plan has you covered for all the horseback riding you want and all your meals. We stay in a cabin and do the ala carte plan. We like this, because it gives us choices of how many times we want to ride a horse or eat in the lodge.... More

My children and I come to this beautiful ranch every year. This year was our 5th year. My 16 year old son and my 17 year old daughter tell me each year that there is no other place on earth they would rather vacation (we have traveled around the world and this is their favorite).
