The staff was really helpful when we had to leave a day ahead of our checkout due to a winter storm. The grounds of this facility were beautiful and I wish we could have stayed and enjoyed it and the restaurant. I would certainly like to go back.

Rainbow Ranch Disappointment
We were so excited to stay at Rainbow Ranch. I had been told how wonderful it was. We were in the Buffalo room. The tub was dirty and there were 4 dead flies in the toilet. The water barely trickled out of the bathroom sink and bathtub shower. By the time we checked in staff was gone for the night. The bed was comfortable. Overall for $500 the condition of the room was very poor. I would not recommend staying here. The room (possibly others) needs a serious upgrade. I do not think anything has been changed since the 80s.

Not worth the price
First, if you’re closing your kitchen to guests due to an event it would be appropriate to inform them of that when you receive notification of their reservation rather than waiting until they arrive. Second, the jets on the bathtub were all coated in bright orange grime. Some bleach and a sponge would have cleaned that up pretty easily. If they’re not cleaning the east spots it makes me question the hard to clean spots. For the cost of this room I would recommend going elsewhere. The lack of cleanliness and being told at checkin that we would not be allowed to dine there were both off putting. Not to mention the stink eye we received from a few folks at their event, a wedding I believe, when they saw us walking our dogs.
