Fishing
There are two ponds for fishing at Greenhorn. The upper pond is right next to the picnic area and offers picturesque views of the ranch. We have a catch & release program, but if you want to keep your catch, pay the bartender $5 for your catch and just bring it over to the chuck house and we’ll cook it up for you. There’s a place to dig for worms, or you can buy a cup 'o worms for $2.00 in the saloon. If you forget your fishin’ pole we have several you can borrow. |
Swimming
We have a wonderful heated swimming pool overlooking the corral, and off a viewing deck for parents to watch over their kids. The pool is a great place to relax and let the kids have fun after each day’s ride.

Rodeo Games!
Mid-week we hold a guest rodeo for adults, teens, and younger riders. There’s a practice session with instruction the day before the “big event” for those who want to participate. Our guest rodeo offers the right mix of challenge and fun to make it enjoyable for everyone. |
Sports & Games
First there’s the big cowboy softball tournament during the week. Plus there’s usually a volleyball game going on in the afternoon. Or you can play horseshoes. For indoor fun there’s a pool table, air hockey, cards, and assorted board and video arcade games in the game room. |

Roping Fun
Test your skills on our roping dummies (Gertrude and Gilbert) and enter our roping contest to win cool prizes! Learn different kinds of throws from the wranglers and maybe you can rope mom and dad too! |
Frog Catchin’ and Racing
On Tuesday night we go out frog catching in the pond (so bring a flashlight). Then on Wednesday night after dinner, there’s the big frog race.
Frogs have jockeys and owners. Jockeys name their frog and urge them across the finish line (the pond)...no hands allowed...only lips!!
Everyone is welcome to bid on their favorite frog and jockeys can win big - a portion of winner proceeds can be donated to help bring a child with special needs to the Ranch.

Bonfire Sing- Along
Several times during the week we’ll stir up the campfire and enjoy an evening of singing and marshmallow roasting. There’ll probably be a story or two… and maybe even some cowboy poetry. |
Cookouts
We do two cook-out meals on the trail during the week – a steak cookout on Sunday evenings and a lunch hamburger cookout on Wednesday's. We also have a couple of BBQ's out on the lawn. For the trail cookouts you have the option to ride your horse, or ride in one of our horse-drawn wagons. |
Dancing
It all leads to dancing, so let your hair down and kick your heels up! We have line dancing, cowboy swing and all around "get your wiggle on" fun in the saloon! While we love our country tune, we have a wide variety of selections for your dancin' preferences! |
Karaoke
Karaoke night is a blast for kids and adults. Our song list is extensive (it’s a book!) so there’s a good chance you’ll find something you’ll want to sing and definitely something we all want to hear! |
Card Night
The poker tables are always ready for a game. Tuesday nights are famous for Texas Hold'Em! Greenhorn Ranch is the place for Paquino, a combination of bingo and poker. Everyone can play on Greenhorn Card Night! |
Adios Party
On the Thursday night (the last night for our week long vacationers) we always hold a special guest celebration with awards and other surprises! It’s always a good time, and a great way to complete your week at Greenhorn. On this night, you can bring your fancy duds and get gussied up for dinner on the lawn and our very special Adios Party! |
