Very accommodating, wonderfully unique location in the middle of no where. Our kids hoped off their devices and just had good old fashioned kid fun. It was great to see all the smiles. Loved it!

More rustic than we expected, but many great memories were created. Very nice to have the large property to ourselves. Tons of games and activities available, or peaceful porch rocking, if chosen. The caretakers, LeighAnn and Jason, were tremendously helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable about the farm. A couple of minuses would be that there is no dishwasher ( though it’s advertised on VRBO), and the “pool” is actually a pond. We are very glad we had this experience!

the property is awesome with fabulous views, beautifal animals and a caretaker who along with his dog, Waylon added to the ambiance and our enjoyment. We're still feeling it and look fo0rward to a return.

Wonderful Reunion

Our siblings get together every year and we've seen all sorts of VRBO properties. This facility was certainly unique! The house fit our needs well and the caretakers were excellent. The house could use a little TLC and detail cleaning and the kitchen was missing some basic tools (measuring spoons and cups, correct size coffee filters.) I'm sure it's difficult to attend to these details when turning over a facility this large in just 4 hours. We would certainly recommend this property with the caveat that it is a little more "rustic" than presented in the VRBO listing.

This was a wonderful and beautiful property! I invited 15 of my closest friends to celebrate my then girlfriend’s birthday and witness my engagement to my now fiancé! The property is great! The house was beautiful and Jay, the caretaker, was so kind, friendly, and helpful! We could tell he does a lot to keep the entire property in tip top shape and that he cares about the upkeep and general well being of the guests AND the animals!! Not to mention his dog, Wayland. What. A. Sweetheart. Unfortunately, with the rain we were unable to participate in some of the offered activities on the property. The indoor hot tub, pool/air hockey/ping pong table, the ample supply of board games and card games, and the huge house absolutely kept us entertained and certainly made up for the dreary weather. Pet friendly is also essential for my fiancé and I. Our 13 years-young pug, Pugsley, comes with us on every adventure and it was so important to have our “son” at this pivotal moment in our relationship! Not to mention our friend was able to bring along Pugsley’s new best friend, Sirius Black—also a pug. All in all, great experience! I highly recommend Fantasy Island Ranch for any and all gatherings, celebrations, reunions of friends and family. Truly an important part in creating such an amazing memory. 5/5 stars, Laughlin & Friends

Such a fun place!
Such a fun place!
Jay welcomed us to the property and was so nice and friendly during our stay. We had fresh eggs from the farm for breakfast and got to pet and feed the animals. There were plenty of beds to sleep in and the property was just as imagined. We will definitely come back in the summer and enjoy the zipline and pond a bit more next time.
