Rankin Ranch knows about quality time: the 31,000-acre ranch has been family-owned and operated since 1863. They opened their picturesque property to the public in 1965 and have been warmly welcoming guests ever since. Today, the fourth, fifth, and sixth Rankin generations are the heart of the operations.

Have you met this handsome fella? His name is Stitch and he is always watching for you to come give him some love! He’s living his best life hanging out by the cabins getting treats from the housekeepers. You might even see him riding around in the golf cart with them ❤️ 🐈⬛ #rankinranch #ranchvacation #ranchcat #barncat #catsofinstagram
