What Our Guests Are Saying
★★★★★
“This is one of my absolute favorite places in Nevada. I came here for the first time on a gold mining trip and stayed for 4 nights. Jeff and Nic Nac are some of the finest people I’ve ever had the privilege of meeting. The Ranch is absolutely beautiful and has everything. Quads, hiking, animals, saloon…you name it, they’ve got it. You won’t meet a bunch of finer people, and you won’t be disappointed by Mt. Wilson Ranch.”

“I don’t want to share because I don’t want the secret to get out. Lol. This place is surrounded by the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen. I now know what the stars really look like and what quiet sounds like. It’s not easy to find but if you want a few days of quiet solitude or true relaxation, visit Jeff and NicNac. The hard work this couple have put into the property is obvious, from the saloon to the nicely appointed and restored guest rooms. My husband and I came unprepared the first night for food options and were treated to a shared dinner with our hosts and we were grateful. We were the only guests at the time so it was an intimate and fun time. We will of course be back soon.”
