Thank you to Rocking Horse Ranch Resort for the courtesy of media reservation accomodations for editorial content purposes.
Rocking Horse Ranch is undeniably a family-friendly resort. Each day is well-organized with a full day of activities. RHRR staff is always available to assist with coordinating activities, reserving mealtimes, and arranging spa appointments at a nominal charge, horseback riding, and programs.
Seasonal activities include-
All meals are served in the main dining hall, prepared by award-winning chefs. Breakfast and lunch are served buffet style, with reservations required for dinner's a la carte menu. Prepare to be amazed by the dessert buffet complete with a chocolate fondue station, assorted pastries and baked goods, and an ice cream bar. My 6-year-old was able to order a special request grilled cheese sandwich with the freshest assorted berries ever! Big smiles! Take note- 24 hour coffee, cocoa and snack are available, and my kids loved every second.
Our first staycation at Rocking Horse Ranch Resort will by no means be our last visit to the all-inclusive resort. From our arrival greeting from the valet until our check-out with cups of cocoa in hand, the memories made at RHRR will remain with our family as an unforgettable time of early morning horseback riding, splashing around, B-I-N-G-O prizes, delicious meals, and evening bonfires. Let's not neglect to mention the tears upon check-out, exhausted return home to reality, and sincere promises of a future visit.
Here's an insider tip- RHRR Check-in time is at 4:00 pm, yet guests are able to enjoy use of select resort amenities while their room accommodations are being prepared.

Initially, we visited Rocking Horse Ranch Resort for a closer look and just a little information. We were greeted with pleasant, smiling faces and an impromptu tour of the property with steamy, creamy cups of cocoa, too. Incredibly, our first impression during that spur of the moment tour was a certainty of a planned family vacation. We enjoyed an informative walk-through, second cups of cocoa, and the majestic daily Horse Crossing event, you won't want to miss.
As we finalized our reservations for a weekend getaway at RHRR, located close to home, here in Ulster County in the Hudson Valley of New York, my youngest was just a little disappointed that there was not an airline flight involved in travelling to our "staycation" destination. Offering year-round, all-inclusive resort amenities and activities for all ages, RHRR is located about 2 hours travel from NYC, and we reminded him that B-I-N-G-O waits for no one.
