Is it a Riding Adventure or a Guest Ranch?
My second visit to the Kay El Bar Guest Ranch was another all out riding adventure. This equestrian vacation is a classic southwest getaway to Wickenburg Arizona.

Our visit was only one night but I could have stayed a week. This place is magical, but don’t take my word, watch the video and go check it out. Dude, where’s my horse??
