I had such a great time at the ranch! Cheri and Viet are super friendly and carrying. They even organized trips to different museums and the cinema and arranged to be able to get a ride into the town/ Oklahoma City All the animals are wonderful and the nature too!! I learned a lot about the horses and chores that come with having them. I felt super comfortable! We had plenty of food and all other kind of stuff in the bathroom you might need. Sometimes it was super cold, so there wasn't much to do but I still enjoyed it! Thank you so much for this experience!

I had a great time at the farm! I learned a lot about everything that goes into taking care of horses. Cheri and Viet were lovely and very generous. If you ever needed anything all you had to do was ask. They even planed extra activities for us to do, like visit museums with a good friend Bob. I would recommend having a car because you have a lot of free time during the day but they also always offered to drop you off in town if you communicated that with them. I am looking forward to visiting in the future! Thanks for a great experience!

I had an amazing experience getting to meet Cheri, the volunteers, and the animals! Cheri truly cares about the safety and wellness of her animals and us volunteers. The days consisted of morning feed, chores, and night feed. There was a lot of time in the afternoon to relax. Even though Cheri was super busy, she made time to teach me different skills when working with horses, such as checking their vital signs. She also makes sure there are days for the volunteers to go to Oklahoma City and experience different events going on in the city. Thank you for hosting me Cheri!!!

I just came home from a month at the ranch and i already miss everything! I had a really amazing time there, I had the chance to learn so much about how to run a farm with love and care about the horses, I learn about how Cheri is helping other people with certain projects and I learned about life and culture. Cheri is such an amazing, caring and loving woman! Whenever you need something - she hears you. If you treat her, the family, the horses and everybody who's coming there with love and respect, you will get even more in return! I couldn't be more grateful! Big recommendation! Will be back

My stay with Cheri was nothing short of incredible! Cheri took great care of us, was extremely generous, kind and welcoming to the ranch. There was always food and snacks, you'll never go hungry! Spending time with all the horses, dogs and kittens was so special. I learnt a lot from Cheri, her the farm and ranch knowledge was amazing. We got to hang out, go to cool western shops/cinema, go for fun days out. I made some incredible friends whilst on my stay and it was lovely to meet the Ole' Timers club too! Cheri and her husband Viet really made me feel at home, and I can't wait to come back!
