Rancho Los Bandidos
Best Friends Forever Crafting Retreat
September 28, 29, & 30 2008
Santa Clarita Craft Lab BFF Crafting Retreat will be held at the beautiful Rancho Los Bandidos Bed & Breakfast located in the beautiful Sierra Blanca Mountains in Ensenada, B.C., Mexico, only 65 miles south of the Tijuana border. Enjoy the breathtaking views of the Bay of Ensenada and of the famous San Miguel Surfing Beach! Also, watch the Vaqueros (cowboys) in action as they round up a heard of 57 horses. This is a working horse ranch!
The Ranch is beautifully landscaped in a dramatic desert motif. Amongst the beautiful cactus gardens and horse corrals, there is the main house, which holds the saddle room, barn, breakfast/lunch room, and gift shop. The Ranch also has its very own Saloon!
This retreat is being offered as a Best Friends Forever Retreat due to the limited accommodations. As the Ranch grows so will our retreats; until then we are suggesting friends treat themselves to the beauty and serenity of the rustic surroundings of the Ranch. How much fun it will be to spend time crafting, shopping, horseback riding, and relaxing with your best friend! The B & B has two bedrooms, each with a queen size bed. There is plenty of room to spread out and make yourself at home.
Suggested attire for our trip is "Ranch Casual," jeans, sneakers, comfortable boots, light sweatshirt/jacket, shorts, sun screen, hat/cap, and casual dress for dinner.
Guests are responsible for the cost of their own dinners on nights 1 & 2. We will offer transportation to the Guadalupe Valley, where we will be having dinner at a restaurant highly recommended by the owner of Rancho Los Bandidos. Each night a different restaurant.
Guests are welcome to brings their own snacks, foods, and drinks to the Ranch. The house has a refrigerator and oven/stove. However, the bar in the gift shop will have beer, margaritas, water, and soft drinks for sale!
