Super Friends Winter Getaway!

This property is a joy to stay at! It was our 5th annual return to Double Bore Ranch. A really beautiful spot in the woods! Ample room for our large group and so much to do from campfires, to hikes, antiquing, brewery and winery stops, restaurants and more! Most important, good friends and total relaxation. Looking forward to our next stay!

Wonderful property and house

Our family of 10 stayed here for a week. House was very clean. Kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, etc. Beds are very comfortable. Even the decks were kept clean, and we enjoyed sitting out there and watching the deer come by. The trails on the property were well maintained and fun to explore. Would highly recommend this property.

Run better than a hotel!

The location is beautiful, the home spotless and very spacious. Communication was excellent and there were no questions left unanswered. The property is maintained and operated more than a hotel. These owners are not amateurs and are clearly experienced in rentals and it made the time spent very enjoyable.

Absolutely Wonderful

My family’s stay at Double Boar Ranch was absolutely wonderful! The house and property are spacious and beautiful! Our group of 16 was comfortable and had room to spread out. Everything that we could possibly need was on site. The kitchen was well appointed and fully stocked with anything one would need to cook for a large group of people. The property manager was very kind and accommodating. She went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was wonderful and memorable! We would definitely love to come back for another stay. I highly recommend Double Boar Ranch.

We had a family of 13 staying at the property. The property was well maintained, the kitchen was very well stocked with supplies, the hiking trails were enjoyed by everyone. There were many things to do in the surrounding area. We spent five nights and never ran out of things to do.

Third time at the Ranch and it just keeps getting better. This trip, we had four generations together—coffee on the porch, walks in the wilderness, and quick trips into town. Peaceful, beautiful, and unforgettable. Can't wait to come back!

Celebrated Daddy’s Heaven Birthday

2025 was our second time staying at this BEAUTIFUL ranch celebrating my daddy’s heavenly birthday! So spacious and nicely equipped. The kitchen has TWO refrigerators/freezers which nicely accommodated the food for our large party along with all the kitchen necessities. The double back porch is so relaxing and the hiking trails are a MUST. If not, you can enjoy the provided DVD’s while shooting a game of pool. I will be scheduling again for next year! Thanks so much for sharing your Ranch with us!

Winter Weekend

We are a large group of friends who have been enjoying the Cook Forest region for more than 35 years of Winter Weekends. Double Bore is large enough to accomodate our group and is located on a beautiful, peaceful and private property. Management is friendly and so easy to work with and it's easy to access from various points (directions). There is plenty to do inside and out at Double Bore, from cooking, to cozy fires, to games and walks in the woods or visiting antique stores, a winery and a rustic brewery very nearby!
