CONSIDERATIONS
Wildcatter Ranch is a very large property and you will need a car to enjoy it. The horse barn where the activities take place is in the valley, while the Steakhouse and Lodging are up on the mountain top — not walkable.
Breakfast and Dinner are served daily, but Wildcatter is not open for lunch outside of pre-ordered boxed lunches received two weeks in advance. You will likely want to enjoy the small town of Graham, TX 15 minutes away for lunch and shopping for antiques and local goods!
Summer heat restricts our summer activities to the morning only.
