Kids of all ages are in for a special treat at Sorrel River Ranch. Our most popular attraction is the on-site petting zoo where kids can help our wranglers feed miniature horses, potbellied pigs, chickens, goats, and rabbits.

Additionally, kids can partake in an array of lawn games, spend time riding bikes around the ranch or take a swim in the heated outdoor pool. For those that want more instruction, we offer several Wrangler camps.
