Amazing Activities
Post Ranch Inn offers an amazing menu of onsite activities, most of them complimentary. Some guest favorites include yoga classes, tai chi, stargazing nights, and nature hikes. In addition, the hotel also features a gorgeous pool area which guests were very impressed with.

Escape
The rooms at Post Ranch Inn do not have any TVs, or alarm clocks, however there is Wi-Fi, so you aren’t completely disconnected from the world, unless you want to be. Guests also said they weren’t too impressed with the onsite gym because it’s not very spacious.
negative:
Limited Menu
While the restaurant is impressive, guests say the dinner menu is a bit limited, so if you’re a picky eater, you may want to study it ahead of time. However, each dish is specialized and made to impress.
negative:
Available Assistance
Guests said that there is a lack of poolside service. You’ll rarely see staff walking around the pool or checking in on and assisting guests. However, you can easily reach someone via the poolside telephone if necessary.
