Everyone there was so easy to work with, we are from out of town so they gave us a FaceTime tour. The team went above and beyond to make our day special and help us feel calm before walking down the rooftop asile. They set up the space exactly how we wanted it. The greenery that is already there made the rooftop and barrel room look magical! Our guests loved the venue and so did we!

From start to finish, working with Amanda and the team at R-Ranch In The Mountains was a dream. The forecast called for storms on our wedding day, but Amanda handled the shift to an indoor ceremony with such grace that our guests didn't miss a beat. She brought a kind and gentle approach to every conversation, making us feel supported through the entire planning process. The venue itself is stunning with those gorgeous mountain views as the backdrop, and the pricing was refreshingly affordable without cutting corners. Amanda's adaptability and attention to detail made our day feel truly special and exactly as we'd imagined it. We're giving R-Ranch a 10/10 recommend—if you're looking for a venue with heart and beauty, this is it.

We had our Welcome Dinner here the night before our wedding, since all of us were from out of town. Perfect location, right next to a coffee shop. While we were decorating, we were able to get some coffee. Then we took a stroll through town once decorating was done. Venue is very cozy, and everyone at Tembo hospitality is great to work with. Highly recommend utilizing this venue for your events!
