Walking the open pastures among 20–30 beautiful horses was like stepping into a dream. The connection, the calm, and the freedom were unforgettable. My 2-hour ride was equally breathtaking—peaceful, empowering, and deeply grounding. Southern Cross Ranch is a hidden gem for any horse lover seeking serenity and joy. I left feeling refreshed and inspired.

Probably the best trail ride I have ever been on. I have done Wyoming, Wisconsin, Maui, Kauai, The Big Island, Los Angeles (all over) Santana Barbara and more, and this is by far the best. Love that you get to groom and tack up, being able to trot and canter, but best part was going off on our own. The barn is gorgeous and I would have to say, the horses look extremely well taken care of, happy and healthy! Thank you for a truly memorable ride on our girls trip with my daughter. Would love to come back and stay at the bed and breakfast on the property.

Amazing stay. What a difference from similarly priced chain hotels in the area. Wish I had more time to explore.

It snowed the weekend we were there, but still enjoyed going down to the barn to spend time with the horses. They are amazing. Disappointed by the breakfast/meals that were included. We couldn't go far because of the snow, so we were limited and the meals were disappointing. Thank God they had snacks !!! The cook/ kitchen manager appeared to not want to be there and it was evident in the food she served and her general attitude (unwelcoming).

Hi everyone...I'm due to visit the ranch early May for a 7 night stay. I'm coming over from the North of England alone. Very much looking forward tonthe ranch experience! I'm wanting to stay a further 5 nights either in Georgia or a nearby state, possibly North carolina. I'm looking for not overly busy or overcrowded, more kind of off the beaten track but not completely isolated either. My initial thoughts were maybe 3 nights in Savannah and 2 nights on Tybee Island...or looking at Wilmington and the nearby beaches there but been told it can get very busy. Any ideas anyone? Thanks so much...roll on May 2025 to stay at this fab ranch. Julie

Best B&B I’ve ever been to!
I only stayed one night but it was amazing! I have never stayed anywhere so clean and cozy in my life! Can’t wait to book again for a couple getaway! Beautiful location and the place is just amazing!

We had a mini suite, to the side of the main house. It was a good size, quiet, and decorated with a distinct Wyoming/Grand Teton vibe. The main buildings had a few good, idiosyncratic places to sit and relax….downstairs TV room, cozy small sitting room with a fire and an enclosed verandah. It had a good breakfast, in a room that reminded me of summer camp. Even if you’re not into riding horses, the feel of being in the real countryside is worth the cost. A memorable place to stay.
