Our stay at Western Pleasure was beyond excellent. The location is absolutely beautiful. I experienced something that I have not had in decades.... complete peace and quiet. It was so relaxing and refreshing. Janice and Roley (the owners) and Barb (staff) made us feel like we were family. They offered great tips on where to go/see that went along with... More

A friend and I have been coming out to Western Pleasure Guest Ranch this winter for the Cross Country Skiing and just love the location. The trails have been well groomed and the views from the trails are spectacular. But we got something that we didn't expect and that was the great friendship of the staff at the guest ranch.... More

We had the most incredible day of cross country skiing at Western Pleasure Ranch. It was a glorious, sunny day when we arrived at this beautiful setting in the wilderness. We met friendly "grandma" Janice who was babysitting her two grandchildren in the spectacular lodge. She answered all of our questions and allowed us to check out one of the... More

We are impromptu travelers and often travel without much in the way of advance reservations. On a recent trip back to Seattle from Montana we decided we wanted to spend a couple of days in beautiful Northern Idaho. We found the Western Pleasure Guest Ranch on line and were lucky enough to score one of the sweet log cabins on... More

An active stay at Western Pleasure is an incredible experience. The accommodations are surpassed only by wonderful common areas of the lodge building.

The instruction was perfect for my level,... More

I just got married here and I can not describe how beautiful this place is! Not to mention the staff is great! Janice always promptly returned my calls when I had questions while I was planning. The whole staff was very friendly! The night before my wedding and morning of it was raining really hard and Janice and her staff... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3-night stay here. From the accommodations to the horse riding instruction to the food, the owners of this ranch, Janice and RoleIy, know what they're doing. It was a quality experience, one we will never forget. The ranch is pretty remote and somewhat rustic, with classic lodge and cabin architecture. Yet the cabin we stayed in... More

My 1 1/2 year old daughter, my 80 year old grandmother and I came for the Steinborn/Eich wedding the weekend of July 13 - 15 and had a wonderful time. We stayed in Grandpas room, we had plenty of space easy access to the play yard for the kids and the large grass space outside. Our room was beautifully tucked... More
