For Dearborn riders
Closer than it sounds
Dearborn families were some of our first and most loyal guests, back when the ranch was in Northville. The farm is now outside Ann Arbor, about forty-five minutes from Dearborn, and Dearborn is still one of the places we hear from most.
Dearborn visitors tend to come as a family or a group: cousins at a horse hangout, a birthday with the baby goats, a group of friends brushing and feeding the horses together. Most have never touched a horse before they arrive, and nobody needs to.
Getting here from Dearborn
From Dearborn, take the Southfield Freeway north to I-96, then M-14 west toward Ann Arbor. About forty-five minutes, nearly all highway.
Exact directions arrive with your booking confirmation.
Make a day of it
Up the Southfield and out M-14 in the late morning, an afternoon with the horses, then dinner in Ann Arbor or back home in Dearborn by evening.
