To the owners and the staff of the Homeplace Ranch: After more than two weeks driving around Canada in a motor home we found the perfect place to end our holidays here on the Homeplace Ranch. The hospitality and friendliness of everybody involved here are second to none. We really enjoyed our stay here with all the beautiful rides, the excellent cooking and the relaxing atmosphere. Thank you very much for everything. Walter, Franziska, Jan & Sven – Switzerland

Just the best week of my life, good food, wonderful horses and warm welcome from the staff. I will be back. Edwin – England

We have put on weight with all of Dawn’s beautiful cooking. She cooks just like my mum and accidentally made all our favourties! Thanks Dawn. To John and Brad; the trail cowboys, you both are what I imagined a cowboy to be, thanks for living up to my expectations!! The serenity, wish we could bottle it and take it home. Thank you to Mac and Jayne for opening up their beautiful ranch to all these international strangers, it is most appreciated.
Matt & Dani (The Honeymooners) – Australia

I have had the most fantastic time. They say you should never go back because it will never be as good – well they’re wrong! Homeplace gets better and better and I can’t wait to get back here. Thank you, all of you, you are a great bunch of people. Julie – England

What can I say? I stayed way too short – one night and 2 days, that’s not enough, when you guys are like you are. Warmhearted – welcoming – making me feel part of the family. And even putting up with my lack of riding skills!! You guys are great – stay that way, you’re special. See you next year. Heidi - Greenland

Back again for a3rd stay – it just keeps getting better! Staff and food splendiferously wonderful and the horses are great. I’ll be back. Jenny – England

My husband and I couldn’t think of a nicer way to spend our 25th Anniversary, we were sorry our stay has to end. Wonderful food, great hospitality and helpful and courteous staff. Rob and Kathy – Ontario

After just a week, who would have thought it would be so hard to say goodbye and take the road again. Our stay was just…exceptional, and so were all you guys – both Homeplace people and guests! Special thanks to Tilly and Soda for their wonderful strength of character and courage in all weathers. We’ll really miss you all, you’ve made our time here so wonderful. We’ll make sure we come right back as soon as we possibly can. So see you all soon. Take Care. Dominic and Doreen – England

My second holiday at Homeplace this year. It’s hard to leave this wonderful place and great people, not staff, friends, hope to see them all in 2006. Edwin – England

Our vacation was definitely on the “top” of vacations. Our guide was excellent and catered to all our riding levels. The food – “fabulous”- the lodging “great”. Fully enjoyed every single day. John and Margaret – Florida

Thanks to everyone at the Homeplace ranch. I had an amazing time! Everyone has been so lovely and the food has been fantastic!!! I had such a special time and hope nothing here changes as they say you can’t improve on perfection. Meryl - England

Thanks for the chance to remember our peace, dreams, fun and true nature. Everything was spectacular on every level. Please continue to trust the vision for this outfit, it works! Owen – California

Thanks for your dedication to preserving cowboy culture and for giving us the opportunity to share in it for a while. Art – Pennsylvania

Your warmth and hospitality exceeded all of my expectations! Thanks for the great horses and memories to treasure. Y’all deserve a big Yahoo!!! Karla - Georgia

Time flies so quickly. I had such a wonderful riding experience here at the ranch. The food was also great. Many thanks to you all. Hiroko – Japan

What can you say about his place – the warmth and hospitality is second to none – in the kitchen and outside in the corral. Nothing was too much trouble for anyone – you only had to ask! I arrived as an extremely nervous novice and left feeling much more at home around horses in general – thanks for that. What a great experience – I will treasure my memories. Jackie – England

Mac, Jayne and to the rest of the wonderful staff at Homeplace Ranch. Words cannot express our appreciation and delight that we have for all of you here. We could not have asked for a better environment to celebrate my parents 50th wedding anniversary. The beauty and serenity of your ranch was a perfect setting. We grew up in the country and are now all spread across Canada. Our stay here brought us all together again not only physically but emotionally. Thanks to each and everyone of you for helping to create wonderful memories. Charlotte – Toronto

This place is special. The land, the people, the horses. Everyone here made us feel as though we were special guests at their home. I am hoping that we can get back and visit again. Thank you for your hospitality. Vicky - Ohio

The name of the ranch sums it all up – Homeplace. What a fantastic week, enjoyed by two people who have never been on a horse. Hopefully we will be back. Thanks for all your efforts and for making us feel so welcome. Ian and Jane – England

Had a great time. The horses and the hospitality is beyond compare. We’ll be back. Pat – Calgary

I’ve had a brilliant time here. You have one of the most relaxing and beautiful places I have ever been to. Thank you all for making this the most enjoyable holiday I’ve ever had. I can’t wait to come back. Bruce – Scotland
