Rich in cowboy traditions and horsemanship, the RS
Ranch is a 500 acre working family ranch located in the Missouri
Ozarks. Surrounded by rivers, trails, and other nature, there
is a wealth of cowboy activities to choose from once you are
here. Located just 1 hour from St. Louis's Lambert
International Airport, you drive southwest thru beautiful
country with rolling hills where interesting stops might include
wineries, cave tours, or one of many antique shops.Once you are at the RS Ranch, we help you design what
you'd like to do on your cowboy getaway with us. We can plan trail riding, roping lessons, horse-drawn hayride, sleigh rides
in the winter, or just watch some of the day to day horse work.
From shoeing, to harnessing a draft team to maybe training a
young colt. You might want to fish, hike, bird watch, kayak or
canoe on a local river, just go swimming and float on your back
for a day, do some photography or sit and relax in a rocking
chair on the big front porch.
With select ranch getaways or
vacations, as the sun starts to set in the western sky,
the horses are turned out to night pastures, friends and
neighbors gather around the chuck wagon and cowboy campfire for
the evening. The smells of cowboy cooking fills the air as
you listen to local Bluegrass musicians playing old west songs.

You are welcome to bring your
guitar, banjo, or fiddle and join in. There's nothing like the
smell of a campfire, some good cowboy coffee, and a few
marshmallows at the end of a full day. The RS Ranch has several breeds of horses to choose
from. We have Quarter Horses for those who prefer them or
Missouri Foxtrotters, that have a smooth, quick gait that's
sure-footed to
handle the hilly rocky outlaw trails. The "Big
Girls", Percheron draft horses are used in day to day chores as
well as pulling the hayride wagon and sleigh rides.
