We discovered KC Ranch in 2004 while fleeing our Gulf Coast home from oncoming Hurricane Ivan. We were immediately hooked! We do most of our trail riding at the popular Coldwater Equestrian State Park in Munson, FL. As is the case with most of Florida, Coldwater doesn't provide much in the way of hills and environmental regulations preclude riding in the rivers although there is still one area where you are permitted to take a swim with your horse. Although I love Coldwater, it can't hold a candle to the variety of trails and the personal pampering you get at KC Ranch. If you are fortunate enough to come on a cooking weekend you will not get better food for the $ anywhere. Also, besides clean stalls, free shavings, clean restrooms, etc; they even provide sewer hook-ups. Who could ask for anything better than KC Ranch? At KC Ranch even "Mama" is happy.

I believe the "UNHAPPY CAMPER" from a previous post was confused or inexperienced. I have ridden here since Ken & Carol opened the camp and have had nothing but good experiences ever visit. Trails may wear or change but where do you go that they don't change? If the price has gone up a few dollars over the years, so be it, what hasn't gone up. For what KC charges it is still a bargain. The KC Ranch has always gone above & beyond to make ever visit a pleasant experience. The food they serve is excellent, the bath houses are clean, the stalls are clean with shavings and the camp sites are excellent. The trails are great and a person can find what ever type riding they desire, from riding in the streams, to sandy trails, to hill climbing. I will continue to visit KC and enjoy the riding & friendship of all who come as I have done in the past. Keep doing what you are doing Ken & Carol - making it great for us that appreciate a wonderful place to camp and ride. |

My favorite place to go, by far. Ken and Carol are the best and always make our stay great. Stall are awesome - big for our big horse, and are always clean and have new shavings when we get there. Trails are awesome, and marked well for beginners to extreme. Lots of water for horses on the trail, and lots of trails to ride. Great food, great hosts, just absolutely great. (And not just saying that to make someone feel good - Unhappy camper !! You obviously are an unhappy person no matter where you are !!)......Eveyone come here and see for yourself !! Thanks Carol and Ken for always making our stay WONDERFUL !!!!! |

Best place I have ever been, with the best host.Ken and Carol are very good people. the trails vary from easy to extreme. Something for every one. Large stalls for my horses. Many days worth of trails. Was there for 5 days over thanksgiving and went in and out several ways. Will be back several times over.

KC is 5 stars all the way! Ken was very nice. We liked the campground and the stalls were nice with plenty of free bedding. The trails were simply awesome! We have ridden many places and this was definitely one of the prettiest we've been to. The caution trails (which you do not have to choose to do) were a little steep in places but found nothing dangerous. I don't understand some of the other comments...if you want to ride on a sidewalk then that's what you should stick to! There was so much natural beauty to take in. Took tons of pictures!! Loved the creek riding! Again, simply awesome trails! We will go again 4sure!!! |

The cookout rides are the best!! Great food, great price. Where else can you go for all you can eat buffets with drinks and desserts for one low price with tax and tip included. Thank you Ken & Carol for all you hard work! We enjoy you trails and all of your hospitality! |

We arrived in the rain and left in the rain. HOWEVER we got to ride one day in between and it was very pretty. The trails were very scenic and had a little of everything. Hills, streams, flat and lots of shade. The grounds and stalls were very clean and spacious. We booked this spot on the go trying to out run the rain from TN and Ken was very gracious, accommodating every need. We will be back for a longer stay when we know it won't be raining! |
