A wonderful stay in Morongo Valley

We absolutely adored the Rancho Contento. The kitchen was well stocked with some amazing touches like fresh eggs from the onsite chicken coop. Dori was nice enough to give us a tour of the coop, which I highly recommend if she's available. Our only regret during the trip was not getting to spend more time at the ranch. My family loved it. Would stay again!
