Leigh Ann and the Flying W Ranch team hosted us in October for a 200+ person event  and it was truly the highlight of the entire week! From the thrilling barrel racing to the captivating Native American dancing, live music, and delicious food, every detail was incredible. Guests couldn’t stop talking about how stunning the property was and how unique the experience felt. The staff went above and beyond. They were all friendly, professional, and so accommodating from start to finish. I can’t recommend Flying W Ranch enough for anyone planning a large event, it will absolutely wow your guests and create memories they’ll be talking about long after.

We held an event at Flying W this last weekend and had the most amazing time! Leigh Ann and her crew are gracious hosts. The venue is beautiful, immaculately cared for, and the food was delicious.

“This venue gave us the remote feeling we wanted, while being only minutes from any major hotel. We were searching for a venue that allowed us to pay homage to our western roots, while was able to still hold the class for a black tie event which is exactly what the Flying W gave us. Their staff was remarkable, and was able to serve 400 steaks to all our guests perfectly and efficiently. The venue itself is so beautiful, there is practically no need to decorate. Truly a wonderful experience.”
