If you enjoy history, this is an amazing stop to add to your travel list! Because no one in my party knows how to follow directions, or listen, we did it completely out of order, and it was still amazing! Every single tour was spectacular and informative! I greatly enjoyed visiting the ranch, and that's what matters, since I'm the reason we went. Ha! Watching the Blacksmith was incredible, buying ranch made souvenirs, and seeing everything kept to period was chefs kiss! Thank you all, but especially to Della(sp) you're my hero! 💜
Rockledge Ranch is the most peaceful oasis in the city. Families can come visit the ranch at any time after hours or off season to see the farm animals and living history sites. It’s a great place for a picnic or easy walk in nature for people of all ages and abilities. During events and summer hours, the living history program offers hands-on learning opportunities so you can experience life in the late 1800s just as it was on this very same property. I often walk behind the ranch around sunset when I’m feeling down and undoubtedly leave refreshed. Rockledge Ranch is open to anyone for a variety of activities depending on the season and event schedule. Always wholesome, always family friendly, always the perfect getaway to reflect on years past.
Beautiful, expansive place to visit. Attended with the whole family (ages 5 to 75) and we all had a blast. Easy free parking, and reasonably priced tickets for the event (an old-timely homestead tour and baseball game). Chill vibes, clean, well cared for place. Seems accessible if that’s needed, except inside the homesteads. This place is highly recommended.
A fantastic experience and great value! The self-guided tour is immersive and informative, making you feel like you’ve stepped back into the 19th century. Perfect for a relaxed hike combined with a historical journey. Highly recommended for families and history lovers alike.
What a great place for a little walk on a beautiful day! There wasn't anything going on since it's still of season but, a great place to explore none the less. Folks were out having picnics on the beautiful grounds, farm critters for the kids to observe, everyone seemed to have a good time. We'll have to check it out when they're open.
