R-Ranch In the Sequoias

The old man with mustache Security guard has an attitude and harasses the patrons. While visiting the general store, we overheard a couple about deciding to complain about something to the front office. Looks like we will never visit or stay at this campground ever. The place looks dull and no fun. What a bad visit. They also require dogs to be kept inside the vehicle at all times! How lame!

Surrounding scenery: 5 stars.
Bang for your buck: 5 stars.
Downside: You don’t get to pick the cabin you want. Even if you invest money to renovate a certain cabin, whenever you go back you might not even get the cabin you put the money into! What the hell is that about? Doesn’t seem fair at all. This is important to note because a LOT of cabins need updating. A lot. They’re okay to stay in, but could definitely use a few… updates.
The wifi, last time we went, had a cap on it. You can only get it in the adult centre, which is understandable. You’re out there to see nature, I understand. I love that. I embrace that. But when you work a job where there’s a deadline that OTHER people fell behind on and you need to be able to access your email and then you can’t because the wifi cap was reached? Frustrating. It was also a really low cap, and you have to wait for midnight for it to reset. They shouldn’t have a cap on the wifi. It’s 2015, for crying out loud. It should also maybe be offered in the general store as well, or at the community center. I think it’s okay that it isn’t available in the cabins, but the main points should offer wifi so if you’re stopping in or in the middle of bingo, you don’t have to leave if you absolutely need to speak to somebody. Because there is zero cell service here.
Deer will eat out of your hands. Raccoons will follow you for scraps. You will go on hikes that make you feel invincible. If this place made just a few, small adjustments it would be 100% worthy of five stars.

I have been an owner since 1992 and absolutely Love the Ranch!
I have shared many memories with my children at the Ranch and now creating many more memories with my grandchildren. I can’t wait to come back in May 2014! Got to get away from the City, traffic for a week and have peace and serenity of the real way of life!

We’ve been R Ranch owners for over 16 years. It is the best investment for our family
that we ever made. Great family environment, safe, secure, peaceful, serene, with LOTS TO DO. There are many hikes and excursions close to the ranch. We have
had family reunions there with 25 people coming to spend the week. GREAT MEMORIES are made.
The Ranch employees are helpful and protective of the facility. Your kids can ride bikes, hike and swim in the pool throughout the day. Its a great vacation at a very reasonable price. AND if you like to fish the Kern River is only 15 minutes away.
There’s excellent Catch and Release Fishing as well as bait and lure trout fishing.
The General Store has most everything that you’d need should you forget any items when packing for your time there. We generally make it up 2 to 4 times per year for long weekends.
The winters are awesome too as you can reserve a cabin when storms are coming in and enjoy the serenity of falling snow and everything that goes with playing in the snow
with your kids and family and friends.
For long weekends there is nothing like it. Cell phones do not work here and internet
access is limited and slow and ONLY at the Adult Center. So don’t expect to do much of your business from R Ranch. But then again that is why its so incredible. When you arrive at R Ranch you get to relax, unwind and enjoy God’s creation with not interruptions.
I highly recommend R Ranch to anyone considering purchasing a share. You won’t regret it.

We’re new owners. Couldn’t believe what a great deal this was! Yes, you have your initial investment as cheap as it gets, and yes, the dues are $ 950 a year. I can’t find another deal like this where you can go the ranch essentially for 6 months a year for that price! It’s serene, peaceful and relaxing in a gorgeous area.

We have been owners of R Ranch since 1992. It has been the best investment we made. Although I can travel around the world on vacation R Ranch offers a peace and tranquility that cannot be found anywhere on this continent. My conclusion is that the 5 hour drive from home and the simplicity of the Ranch is the perfect equation. Others should not offer bad comment unless they are owners. Perhaps they wanted to drive around on the Ranch and got upset when Security told them it was not allowed.

You have to be a legitimate owner to rate or critique R-​ranch. It is a heaven sent, especially when you need to get away from the crazy city life. Stables, olympic size pool, tennis/​volleyball/​basketball courts, shooting range, archery, crafts, bands, nature etc.
Again, you have to be an owner or stayed a few days as a guest to really share your opinion.

I have no interest in staying here, but trolling around or camping in this area of the Sequoias, the store is a Godsend.
BTW — for those who know — They have It’s-It’s here. I can’t even get those in LA. I think their distribution stops at the Grapevine. So, I ate two while I had the chance.
