You can't beat the price with the horse riding, lodging and food! We stayed there in March which was cold and barren but still beautiful. Horses are everywhere and they add to the ambiance. Neither my husband nor I are experienced riders or are necessarily into horses but we did all the horse rides and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was... more

First of all, Im feeling a little guilty not giving the Southern Cross Guest Ranch 5 stars, since everyone else did. However....I do tell it like I see it! (THIS IS MY EXPERIENCE) The riding was great. Lots of hands on with the horses, which I really appreciated. Bottom line, the "guest horses" are trail horses and THEY (the horse)... more

If you're a horselover, or you're looking for a unique getaway in Georgia, Southern Cross is the way to go. We opted to take an extended weekend and found Southern Cross by accident online. Both being horselovers, what better way to spend our weekend than riding and enjoying ourselves? We were greeted at the front desk who was able to... more

My husband and I were looking for a weekend getaway that was unique yet incorporated several factors: B&B, Horses, and a place we could fly to with our plane from SW Florida. Southern Cross had it all, and then some. The staff was wonderful from Tom, who picked us up at the charming Madison Airport, to Monica, who checked us... more

We had the most fabulous holiday at Southern Cross ranch. We are a family of 3, our son is 7 years old and he loved every minute of the holiday. The accommodation is superb as is the food and the horses. We have not stopped talking about the ranch since our return. Monica and Noel are so helpful and all... more

This charming southern ranch offers quality horse back riding on quality well mannered horses. The unique aspect about this horse ranch is that you have time to bond with your horse before (and after) you ride. The ranch allows you to brush and saddle your own horse as well as bath them when you're done. If you need help, the... more

On the accommodation side, it is extremely comfortable. The rooms are big and are like being at home. The beds are good home quality, I slept very well. The food is incredible. Plan on eating a variety of southern favorites, and some new things too. They are family owned and family oriented with big central game and eating area, pool... more

Where do you begin to write a review about a place that fulfilled all of my vacation expectations...and then went even further. Southern Cross is a beautiful inn/ranch where you leave your troubles at the driveway and enter a world of peace, quiet, and relaxation. My husband and I visited for our 4th anniversary. Speding time on a horse farm... more

My granddaughter spends a few weeks each summer with all the various grandparentsand family and this year I decided to take my part of it and surprise her with a surprise vacation here. She is 8 and has not ridden alone before, only just doubled up. The policy here is 9 to ride, but you may choose to pay the... more
