Comments for Family and adventure travel in Mexico Vacation Rental
Moonbeam is really a magical place. It's a place to get to know the locals, watching the kids play in the plaza, chatting with the young men as they sit on their horses having a beer, or wandering the miles of trails through the mountain valleys. I never expected the house to be so nice, and the cowhand, David is quite a character! Even without speaking English he was a great teacher and guide. This isn't a dude ranch if that's what you're looking for, but a real ranch, where for just a while you can fulfill your fantasies of what it might be like to really live on a ranch in the mountains of Mexico. A great family vacation!
