Southern Cross Ranch/Bed and Breakfast
Experience southern hospitality at its finest on this wonderfully accommodating ranch. Largely undiscovered, Southern Cross Ranch is nestled in Central Georgia’s Historic Heartland and home to over 150 quality Paint and Quarter horses.
We have both Bed & Breakfast only plans and All-Inclusive plans covering meals and/or horseback riding. All guests have access to pool, hot tub, game room, video library, and unlimited snacks, desserts, soft drinks and other beverages. Best known for our exceptional horseback riding program and unguided riding opportunities, Southern Cross combines this with delightful accommodations, exceptional cuisine, and personalized service for a complete experience. Our relaxed riding program allows guests to trail ride on their own if they choose. Horses are matched for novice and experienced riders, and lessons are available.
Each room is pleasantly appointed featuring a King-sized bed, A/C, TV, DVD, and private bath. Premium rooms offer whirlpools, fireplaces, and delightful views. You may choose a room with a rustic, western theme or one of more traditional Southern décor.
You’ll find many ways to relax and unwind at Southern Cross Ranch. You can enjoy a dip in the swimming pool or a soak in the hot tub. Seasonal flowers and beautiful landscaping adorn the ranch. You and your family will enjoy the complimentary unlimited soft drinks, tea, coffee, fresh lemonade, snacks, fruit and fresh baked desserts available 24 hours per day.
