The hospitality here is off the charts and the property is serene and lovely. It's rustic central Oregon charm at its best. The breakfasts were outstanding. The ride on horseback was hot but nice--maybe two hours would have been better than three, in retrospect. It's not right in the middle of the Painted Hills but Fossil is a chill, sweet little town so it was worth the driving time.

We give our highest recommendations for this experience!!! From our three year old to our teenagers to our visitor from Columbia to me (a single mom), everyone LOVED the food, rooms, family, horses, rides, and more! ZERO complaints 💕

2e fois pour notre famille de goûter au rêve américain chez Kara et sa famille! L’accueil est toujours aussi chaleureux, nous nous y sentons comme à la maison , le petit déjeuner fait maison est délicieux . La décoration très western, on adore ! Les ballades à cheval très agréables , Brian est si gentil . Petit bémol : la climatisation très bruyante

Everything was just excellent.!The Wilson family does everything to make you comftable and feel like home. Excellent breakfast. In the kitchen you have everything to prepare a meal. In town you can buy everything you need. We did a 2 hour horseriding. That also was a wonderful experience.

The rooms were nice, the hospitality great and the area was beautiful. Took a great ride on the ranch and saw coyotes and deer. Horses took great care of us as did Brian, our guide. The staff were all welcoming and helpful to find adventures in the area! Recommended adventure.

Beautiful setting, welcoming staff, great breakfast, and all amenities thoughtfully supplied. The only thing that was not perfect for our party of three seniors and a son was that the private bathroom for our upper floor suite was on the lower floor and was accessed by passing through one of the upstairs bedrooms, and down a flight of stairs and the downstairs common room. However, the description did note bedrooms upstairs and bathroom upstairs, so it was my fault in not noticing this before I made the reservation. Everything else was perfect.

Our family had a wonderful time at the Wilson Ranches Retreat Bed & Breakfast. We appreciated their warm hospitality and attention to detail for each guest. The horseback ride was so fun and Brian was a great guide! We will definitely be back next year.

Genuine hospitality with a warm family vibe in a beautiful location. Kara and Brian are funny and gracious hosts, the food is delicious and the accommodation comfortable and full of personal touches. It really felt like we were guests in their home. We appreciated the opportunity to learn about some of the details of ranch life as well as some of it's challenges. The opportunity to horse ride will staying on the ranch was an extra treat. Brian was especially patient with our group of first time city slicker riders. We wouldn't think of staying anywhere else in Fossil now that we've discovered this gem.
