What to Bring

Pack for outdoor adventure

The Bar W offers true western informality to create an atmosphere that is relaxing and comfortable for guests after a long day in the saddle.

We are pretty casual around the Ranch, so dress for comfort.

Remember to bring your boots, belts, gloves and other leather goods so you can brand them with the Bar W logo!
