Excellent Stay!

This was our fifth stay in the last two years and we were again amazed at how much we enjoyed the Resort. The Staff is always great to work with and the grounds are always kept perfectly manicured. Our only wish is that the restaurant and bar were open thru out the week and their hours of operation were more consistent.

Nice job Kohl’s Ranch!

Great front desk service! We stayed in one of the triplet cabins, which had a nice open living & dining room. Nicely appointed bathroom, ample kitchen & 2 tv’s. We played pickleball, cornhole & enjoyed the hot tub. Short drive to Payson.

Wonderful Family Vacation

Kohl's Ranch is very clean and very family-friendly. My only wish is that the restaurant had a few more veggie options. We had a wonderful, relaxing family vacation. The Mogollon Rim and the Tonto Natural Land Bridge are very close to the natural wonders.

What i liked was the cozy, country life feeling. The BBQ Restaurant was OK and I'd eat there again. The staff was helpful and full of energy and made me feel welcomed from the moment we walked in. Definitely a place i will frequent in the future .
