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.

Today we decided to let Tiny & friends out to do some exploring in the next field. We thought they would run right out, but were a little apprehensive. Shelby and Tiny led the way! We hoped they would explore far enough to cross the creek, but they didn’t make far before coming right back. They are happy with their home and apparently the grass isn’t that much greener on the other side of the fence. ![]()
