True gem
We loved our stay at Blue Truck Ranch! Kelly, our host, went above and beyond in so many thoughtful ways to ensure we were comfortable and had fun. Everything from the adjustable king size beds to the well stocked kitchen was amazing. The ping pong table in the clubhouse kept the adults and children entertained for hours. Roasting marshmallows, chatting, and swinging around the fire pit was a nightly ritual. The large grassy area in front of the cottages was perfect for the kids to run and play. Quite a bit of time was spent in the kitchenette preparing our meals, playing games, and relaxing on the sofas. Outdoors the comfortable rocking chairs were wonderful for reading, chatting, and watching the beautiful sunset. Wildflowers throughout the property were an added bonus. Kelly kept in touch and responded quickly to our inquiries. This was the perfect place for our stay near Inks Lake State Park.
