I've visited this place for the nth time already. The charm of the place is still there and it doesn't seem to fade. Just being in this place makes you want to just simply enjoy the beauty of the scenery and the freshness of the air.It's a place where you can go to when you just feel like having your alone time whether you want to relax, chill or unwind.

The place also has this serene atmosphere in it.

Littering is very much discouraged in here. We should practice to always observe cleanliness wherever we go. The ranch is very clean, so let's make our part in maintaining the cleanliness of the area.
