Halloween Today

Bar M Ranch… Built in 1864, as a stage coach stop during the Civil War, the Bar M Ranch has been providing one of the most rewarding guest ranch experiences in the west. The tradition continues today, making it the ultimate destination for a fun, relaxing and memorable western vacation. Everybody is welcome here at the Bar M, from large families to individuals. The peace, quiet, and beauty of the ranch also makes it an ideal location for weddings, corporate retreats, meetings and other group events.

Heading up the Umatilla River, the Bar M Ranch is located just 30 miles east of Pendleton, Oregon in the foothills of the Blue Mountains. The 3,000 acre guest ranch is located along the river in the canyon amid tall pine, fir, and cottonwood trees. Experience the wonders of the West upon the back of one of our 40 beautiful horses. Enjoy the fresh mountain air, natural hot springs pool, spectacular scenery and sports and recreational opportunities. These amenities make the Bar M Ranch a perfect year round vacation spot.
 

Hot Springs... For over a century, people have been coming to the springs, soaking in the hot mineral water for the medicinal properties it was believed to contain. The 40 x 60 pool has soothed many an aching muscle after an invigorating ride or hike. Kids love it! 

Horseback Riding... One of the ranch's main summer activities is horseback riding. From the herd of approximately 50 horses, one will be selected to suit your riding skills. It will be yours to brush, ride, and form a friendship with during the week. There are two rides daily that last about two hours each, up on the hill or along the river. Weather permitting, the ranch also offers an overnight campout and all-day lunch rides. Riding instruction is offered down in the corral. 

The Food... It's hard to imagine better, tastier home-cooked food than the mouth-watering meals served in the Main Ranch House. There's plenty to go around, no matter how hearty your appetite. Barbecues and eating outside on the deck provide an opportunity to enjoy great food and peaceful summer evenings. From homemade bread covered with the Bar M's famous raspberry jam to the fresh vegetables picked from the garden, tender meats, and delectable desserts, all your taste buds are sure to be satisfied!

Now under new ownership... In July of 2002 the Bar M Dude Ranch was purchased by Kent and Shannon Madison. For additional information including cost, reservations, activities and more please visit http://barmranch.com/index.php or write:
