"How do you write a recommendation for a place that is too amazing for words?! Sprucedale is a hidden gem. First time I went was in 1994, as a 19 year old. Then again in 1995. Twenty-five years later, I was finally able to visit again but this time with my husband and 2 daughters. It was every bit as magical as I remembered. We are NOT horseback riders at all! The wranglers were all fantastic making sure we were paired up with horses that were the right temperament for us. None of us ever felt unsafe. Three meals a day that put my cooking to shame. And so much of it! And even during all of this COVID craziness, the kitchen staff was so on top of things; masks, gloves, guests keeping distance from the food line where we were served, hand sanitizer & hand washing stations. They were all very prepared. The cabins are rustic, but quite warm & cozy. Beds & bedding are great. The view outside our cabin across the meadow was majestic. Horses, cows, SO MANY hummingbirds (seriously, we had about 25 of them at 1 feeder hanging on our front porch!! ��)
You know it’s a great vacation when your whole family is already talking about “next time,” before you’ve even finished “this time!” Do yourself a favor... Just go!!"
