The ranch just made into a great publication - Only in Your State. You can register for your state/city and it will daily send you unique ideas for places to eat, stay, visit, etc. I didn't even know this was going to get published. I sent my place in several months ago and a great friend of mine just shared it with me that it was the lead story! I'm so honored that they selected my place for today's edition!

Bring the whole family, kids and all, for a night on a farm! This rustic retreat in Williams, Arizona is a memorable getaway.

Blessings to you all and best wishes for a healthy, happy and prosperous 2024!

Thank you. . .
