Aaah. R&R means Rest & Relaxation.

Actually, at the R&R Ranch in Moorpark, it means exceptional boarding care for your horses and lots of activities from roping to barrel racing. Owners Ron and Robbie Warne, after whom the ranch is named, have been providing quality boarding for years in the Ventura County area. This is the third boarding ranch they have operated, which they have called home for the past 10 years. Ron is an active roper and he competes in team roping, heading and heeling events. Robbie was raised on a Colorado horse ranch, and loves barrel racing and in 2006 won the Woman's All Around title and a beautiful saddle on the N.P.R.A. circuit.

It is this dedicated equestrian background which enables Ron & Robbie to provide the best care for horses boarded on the ranch. As experienced horsemen, they know horses in and out. They can offer their expertise to boarding clients to enhance the daily care of the horses, and they manage a staff of workers who also pay attention to the details of daily habits of the horses. With this focus, any behavior changes in the horses is noticed right away, which can often help prevent injuries or give the vets a jump start on a problem before it gets out of hand.

Well maintained grounds are also present at the R&R Ranch. Ron takes pride in knowing the facilities are in good repair, all in working order and everything needed by clients is right there on site. The arenas have excellent footing, there are round pens and turnouts. The boarding options include a beautiful breezeway barn with in & outs. This is like having the best of both worlds of a barn and a mare motel - the shelter of the barn is great for shade in the summer and weather protection in the winter, yet there is plenty of air circulation and a place for the horses to "get out in the sunshine" in the back of the pen. There is also a choice of 24x24 pipe corrals with shelters and a few larger paddocks where up to 4 horses can live together. The last boarding option is the mare or gelding pasture - where multiple horses live out together in a natural environment. Boarding Rates at the R&R Ranch range from $250 - $325 per month. They offer full services including feeding and cleaning .

Activities are always going on with the ranch. Both Ron & Robbie know a good atmosphere is part of the fun of being at a boarding stable, so they encourage boarder participation in roping practices, barrel racing and just general trail riding. Roping practices are typically Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, and Saturdays when they are not out at competitions.

All breeds are welcome at the R&R Ranch. When you're looking for the right care for your horse, with a social and fun ranch atmosphere, then the R& R Ranch fits the bill!
