Favorite Activity: Being here amidst the fresh air, beautiful landscape, cozy cottage, generous hosts. Reading, walking, ping pong and canoeing. Comments: Having grown up not far from here on a beautiful lake, this place offers so much, if not as much as any place I've been. Careful planning and much care have gone into making Sunset Ranch an idyllic setting for a relaxing and stimulating vacation. This is our 2nd year and we loved it as much as the 1st and plan and hope to return for many more! Rusty and Chris from NY
