Introduction
Welcome to a place that is as enchanting and lively on the inside as it is on the outside!!
The home and gardens are a series of elegance united by a serene palette and respect for the natural world. Enjoy the surroundings of the enclosed back porch overlooking the gardens and fish pond/water garden listening to the sounds of nature. Take a walk through the woods to the barns and enjoy the horses and outdoors. For the convenience of the horse campers, we have facilities to board your horses overnight while you are visiting, either in stalls or in the fenced-in arena.
The Recreation Room
The Martin Ranch B&B is a newly constructed French Country style home with amenities you would expect at a quality hotel, and a kitchen that says "welcome". Intimate seating groups ensure that the scale of the living room is never overwhelming. The recreation area is comfortably furnished with a fireplace, satellite TV/DVD/VCR, and pool/ping-pong table. The kitchenette in the recreational area is decorated in a coke theme. Soft drinks and snacks are complementary.
