George Griffith is our maintenance supervisor and has many responsibilities every day. Basically, if it’s broke it’s his responsibility to get the right man to fix it. George brings his relations with local vendors as well as years of experience to the ranch. His communication skills are on point and brings a smile with him each day.
Molly Blair is the assistant manager, and she comes with experience at our front desk, general store and an appetite to learn the nuts and bolts of this operation. She is assertive and kind all while being my right arm on a daily basis.
Joe Miller is our grounds supervisor and has a challenging task in all seasons. Joe keeps his team busy keeping grass cut, taking out trees as needed, grinding stumps each spring, keeping fire rings clean… you get the picture. He’s a quiet man but when he speaks up it’s something you’ll want to listen to.

When asked why he’s the best dad, His family told us this!
Our dad is the best for so many reasons. He is the father to 3 young kids, ages 5, 2.5, and 9 month old baby. He is also a co-guardian of his Wifeʼs sister, who is a 25 year old beautifully spirited woman with Downʼs syndrome. He takes us camping every weekend we available and gets us on the lake in paddle boats and canoes. Heʼs always looking for fun things the kids can do away from the screens and out in nature. Heʼs the most loving and caring dad
you could ever ask for!!!
