I loved the Western/ranch atmosphere. For me, it was perfect. There were no TVs, and the lodge rooms couldn't be locked from the outside...no key! It made you feel like you were part of a big family. The food was excellent. We met people from all over the world. We didn't ride horses, but took a UTV tour and did some shooting. The wranglers were very helpful, and it was so interesting learning about their way of life. Note: Check the schedule. Not every activity is offered every day.

You can’t beat the location to find out what living on a real Arizona ranch might be like. Wonderful staff, fun guests to meet, delicious and plentiful food (thank you chefs!). Large grounds to walk around and plenty of daily activities such as horseback riding, archery and shooting right here onsite, perfect even for beginners, though experts will have a fine time too. The lodge is gorgeous with a big fireplace and lots of artifacts, some from the original 1908 homestead I imagine. We were awarded the first and only day of rain since August, and were thankful to see how the plants and terrain adjusted. We especially give a shout out to Kaitlin and her husband Justin for their warm hospitality and helpfulness, and all the others were lovely too. There happened to be a glitch in the heating system one morning, but the staff and their expert vendors had it completely resolved by dinner time, very prompt and “on it!” Lots of important skills here. You will have a wonderful time, and they will take good care of you.

Great getaway from urban life.

The dude ranch experience was unexpected and fun. We were looking for a 3 day stay at a traditional motel to visit family. Staff was very attentive and freindly. While we didn't do many activities the environment was a great deal of fun. The great room (joint living room) with fireplace was realy special. THe chef was excellent each meal was so delious and unque in many ways. The beds do need upgrading particularly for seniors. They need to tend to some safety issues as many of the outside ground lights were not working making it hazardous to walk the walk ways after dark.

Excellent example of a true ranch, not something put together for tourists. Lots of historical background. Our European visitors had requested that our sightseeing trip include a real western U.S. ranch. This was perfect and they loved it!

Peaceful and serene

Absolutely beautiful location. Horses, birds, all kinds of stunning flora and fauna around. It was quiet and peaceful, someone always available for questions or whatever. It is off a dirt road ( little tricky on our motorcycles), but the location added to its charm. Rooms are comfy and clean and the food was really good! We didn’t take advantage of the activities they had to offer, horseback riding etc, but I’d love to go back again and try it someday.

Kay El-Bar 2-Night Stay

Wonderful experience in an historic guest ranch. The ranch is old, which accounts for the great vibe it has. It could use some room updates in the way of painting and bedding refresh, perhaps, but I was very comfortable and enjoyed my two night stay. Food was great.

We enjoyed this cozy and welcoming resort that had great food and a relaxed ambience. We didn’t ride but heard that the riding was excellent. The hiking was good. Happy hour food was provided and sometimes there were cookies to enjoy. There was no housekeeping during our stay which was fine with us.

We enjoyed morning horse riding, but the breakfast and dinners options can be better. Need add more tasty and variety food. Also, a bed can be more comfortable. Price and quality are not equal. Should be cheaper night stay, or make updates.

Authentic dude ranch experience

My husband and I were celebrating our 38th anniversary and visited Kay El Bar guest Ranch! We had a fabulous time! The horseback riding was amazing, thank you so much, Carter and Stephanie! Very professional!! Horses were beautiful and well taken care of. The chef prepared wonderful meals every day! It was very peaceful, waking up in this environment, I recommend it to everyone! So much to do, and so much to learn. This ranch is listed in the National Registry of Historic places. Very authentic!! Wickenburg, the closest town, is an excellent place to visit for shopping and food! The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and comfortable! Kyle, Emily and Jilly were amazing!! Beautiful family! The falcon show was something to see! There is a 100+ foot eucalyptus tree that will blow your mind! Would love to see their ranch in Montana, that is on our bucket list now! Thank you for this unique experience!!

We had a wonderful stay at Kay El Bar guest ranch. We highly recommend the horse riding experience -- we were total beginners and they made us feel really at ease. We loved the communal dining for meals and the food was a real highlight as each meal was so delicious! Would recommend opting in for lunch and dinner as they are excellent value for money given the high quality of the meals.
