Bungalows that line the long entrance drive to the ranch have front porches, two and three bedrooms, and a large living room. Studios and two-room suites can be arranged for either king or twin beds. All have working fireplaces, which the Alisal staff keeps well stocked with firewood. A ride into the oak-studded hills will tempt even the slickest of city slickers. Two-hour guided horseback rides are scheduled each morning and afternoon.
Lessons are also available.
Upon arrival, the crew prepares a hearty meal of eggs, flapjacks and other warm goodies. Coffee brews next to the open fire. The ranch also offers half-day lunch rides. Once back to the ranch, you can wash off the trail dust with a dip in the free-form swimming pool or relax in the spa. The ranch has two 18-hole golf courses available to guests.
