Beautiful place!! The rooms are gorgeous with huge views. Plenty of places to walk and explore. There is a basketball court and pool table too. Shoutout to Hampton- he was the staff staying for the weekend and was so incredibly nice and worked hard to make sure we had everything we needed.

Joy Ranch was an awesome experience! From a private tour of the equine assistance program to the hospitality to the event planning and execution - nothing better. So wonderful to be back on the prairie and in South Dakota (during good weather!!) Kudos to Joy, the staff, and the foundation.
