I recently had the pleasure of staying at Veterans Rescue Ranch and it was truly one of the most relaxing vacations I've ever had. The views were absolutely incredible, offering a serene backdrop that made it easy to unwind and enjoy nature. One of the highlights of my trip was the thrilling jeep ride to the nearby sand dunes. It was an exhilarating adventure that added a dash of excitement to my stay. However, my absolute favorite experience was visiting Mission: Wolf. Interacting with these magnificent creatures was both humbling and inspiring. The dedication and care provided at the sanctuary were evident and made the visit all the more special. Overall, Veterans Rescue Ranch provided a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure, making it a memorable getaway. I can't wait to return!

The Veterans Ranch was amazing and absolutely beautiful! I stayed for a week and was made to feel very special and extremely comfortable. It was like home away from home. I really enjoyed the equine therapy. Being with the horses and learning so much about them and how they would calm me was really healing. I will forever be thankful for this experience.

The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the interaction with the horses. These gentle, majestic creatures brought a sense of peace and joy that is hard to find elsewhere. Whether I was grooming, feeding, or simply spending time with them, the connection I felt was deeply therapeutic. The accommodations were comfortable, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure all guests felt welcomed and cared for. The activities and programs offered are thoughtfully designed to promote relaxation and healing. Overall, the Veterans Rescue Ranch is a wonderful retreat for anyone looking to unwind and reconnect with nature. I highly recommend it and look forward to returning in the future.

This is about the most beautiful place tucked away with a stunning view of snow capped mountains. I stayed for 10 days and got to see wolves. I also got to walk around westcliffe and that is one cool town. Whether hanging out with the horses, goats and chickens or doing whatever you need to heal, they will take care of you. It was well worth it.
