This is a beautiful, well maintained and expertly furnished property. There are so many places, including the pool area, to sit, relax and listen to and watch the wildlife. It is set in wonderful grounds and extensive countryside with amazing views. We had breakfast daily which was plentiful and tasty and the service from staff was excellent throughout our stay. We did not ride, but if you are a horse rider this is a great place to stay. The nearby town of Madison (about a 15 min car journey) is delightful with a good selection of shops and restaurants and has an old town charm.

Just for riding horses, not a hotel to stay in.
If you want to ride horses, stay here. A bit odd to me, clean, but needs a refresh. Beautiful grounds.

He staff made an effort to make guests feel at home. The room was quiet and comfortable and offered a lovely view. Snacks and drinks were available 24/7, and the breakfast was fine. My only suggestion would be to serve the breakfast at a warmer temperature. At serving time, the food was fairly cold; not a good temperature for eggs and pancakes. The horses were gorgeous and very well taken care of.

Wonderful vacation at Southern Cross Guest Ranch.
This place was amazing. I have gone twice and truly enjoyed both stays. The staff were wonderful. It is a place you can enjoy whether you ride horses or not. I used it as a B&B. It was very relaxing. I also enjoyed walking to the stables to feed the horses treats. The food is amazing. You would be surprised with the options you have to choose from. With the B&B a you have the option to include lunch and dinner with your stay if you want to. With the all inclusive horse riding pkg it was included.

Can't wait to go back
My daughter and I had a wonderful time at the Ranch. We're pet the horses, played with the cats and dogs who live there, she saw the most incredible stars at night. Breakfast was excellent and if you tell them you're diet restrictions they'll work with them. The rooms are beautiful and have character. There are tons of places to sit and relax. The only negative thing I would say is they had terrible 1-ply toilet paper. So we're definitely going back, but maybe I'll bring a roll or two.

Wow! What an amazing place. Beautiful, well loved and managed property. The front office manager (Karen) was wonderful and happy to give us the properties history. Dinner was well thought out and excellent. They had a spread of everything you could imagine potatoes, Ribs, chicken, beans, huge salad bar with all the fixings and desert lots of it!! I was impressed.I need to also mention the dinning room with 10 huge windos overlooking the pool, large flowering trees and the pasture of horses, donkies and ponies. I came here with my daughter for her 16th Birthday and we really enjoyed our time. The property was incredible to walk. They had geese, ducks, over 150 horses, hummingbirds and butterflies I could not ask for a nicer country ranch to visit. We will come back for sure but with friends.
