Autumn comes early to The Home Ranch and brings a sublime, golden season to the Elk River Valley. It is a slower-paced time of year, when kids have all returned to school, and the atmosphere at the ranch beckons to adult travelers who have time to savor the season, sans kiddos.
The days are crisp, clear, and golden; the aspen groves shimmer with inner light, and the fly fishing is exceptional. It is a prime time for deep relaxation, serious leisure, long gourmet dinners, and crackling fires.
To take advantage of this special season, we structure unique September weeks to cater to the interests of the adult traveler. Please check out the offerings below and call us if you would like further clarification of each week's events.
Adults Only Weeks 2012: August 26th - September 2nd & September 2nd - 9th
This year, the last week in August and first week in September are reserved for adult travelers only (no kids). Excellent fly fishing, exceptional weather, fall color and gourmet dining bring travelers from around the world to savor the sights of the Elk River Valley in Autumn.
Weanling Week and Canadian Sport Horse Sale 2012: September 9th - 16th
This is a week filled with learning, laughing and love. Each September Gord Jessiman brings down about 30 four-month- old horses from Canada. The guests of The Home Ranch are given the opportunity to interact with these babies for the first time in their lives, teaching them how to lead and how to trust people. At the end of the week, on September 15th, 2012, these beautiful babies are sold at an auction to horse enthusiasts. For more information on Weanling Week, please click here.
