First jump ever on Sunday and I had an amazing time, John made me feel so comfortable and it went great, definitely coming back for more!!!
Megan was so helpful with all of our last minute changes. Steve "Utah" provided the best jumping experience and Jimmy "Storm" caught the action. Couldn't have asked for a better first jump. Highly recimmend this place and their wonderful staff
I had a great first experience. I was with JM for my skydive. While gearing up, he made me feel at ease. His conversation with me was genuine. He was thorough and kept me informed through everything.
Best place ever had a blast I advice you to come here you will have the best time of your life just get in your car now i'm saying you need to go!!!!
Awesome people run this place. They make skydiving as safe as it possibly can be, best gear in the business and make sure to educate you before you get on the plane. Been here twice and would go back a thousand more times.
I went to Sky Dive the Ranch this past Sunday for my second tandem. I had an amazing experience. Joe, Emma, Helen and Eric were all super courteous. Everyone at the facility was very nice. Eric, my tandem instructor, explained everything I needed to know and made me feel very safe. Eric gave me inst...
Such a great experience. Got there at 9 and left by 10. JM was an awesome instructor and Leland made an awesome video. Definitely plan on going again!
Came here for my second jump and I've never felt more comfortable... my instructor John was really cool and mad sure I was ok through out the whole experience... definitely coming again!!!
Skydive the ranch was beyond professional and fun. This was my first dive and I felt beyond safe and secure during my jump. My fly master Eric was such a ham all I could so was smile and feel happy about what was about to come.. Instructions were clear at all times. Customer service is beyond anyon...
i was there in summer 2015 it was amazing and friendly, specially my instructor was amazingly great and the photographer is highly experience and the service is great, and the price is a catch, i would definitely go back,,,,,,,,
One of the most awesome places on Earth. Chill vibes and good times. Had my 1st jump ever at the Ranch and nowhere else could have made it better.
Only good thing about that place is the instructor that was with me. Very friendly and kind. Always made sure I was ok. However, the girl at the reception was very unkind, I would say rude. And that was only towards us. Because we were black. So I have one question for her or anyone who sees other r...
I've only jumped twice and both have been at The Ranch. Everyone that works there and the community of people there are awesome and always know how to keep u relaxed, at the same time teaching new things to help acclimate you to the sport. They have a pleasant community vibe that is rare to find in ...
That was so much fun, Eric my tandem was awesome. Big Jim my photo/ video was great. The whole experience could not have been better. It was better than my expectations, and very easy to do
What a incredible experience!!.. From the time you arrive your made to feel very comfortable. Staff is very friendly and definitely love what they do. Will definitely return no question at all.
My first skydive was an amazing experience! The whole experience, including booking, check-in, pre-jump instructions, my instructor Eric and all staff was fantastic. The atmosphere was relaxed, fun and friendly. But above all, it was obvious that safety was priority number one. All instructors and o...
Great time sky diving with my kids and their friends at Sky Dive the Ranch! The tandem jumpers really helped to make it a great experience. Big shout out to "Tall Eric" for making me feel very comfortable and safe! Yellow Man (Gold Man) thanks for being a great photographer and a good sport to ta...
The relaxed atmosphere and the feeling that everyone who works here loves the work ( if you can call it that ), puts a level of fun and relaxation to what some people are probably having 2nd thoughts about. Being a 1st timer, I highly recommend this place as THE place.
A special thanks to Dave and ...
Fantastic experience! My instructor, Seirgy, explained everything calmly and carefully. No surprises except the best thrill and joyful time ever!
Can't wait to fly again and will go to their school so I can fly alone and a lot!!!
The most amazing experience ever. To anyone who has even thought about skydiving do it. The staff at the ranch were very friendly and very calming. My husband and I will definitely be back.
Just WOW! Fantastic experience at Skydive The Ranch for my first tandem jump. Everyone there was happy, helpful, and NICE. Great group of people that make sure you have a top-notch experience. My instructor Jeff Daniels was GREAT! It's two days later and I still can't wipe the grin off my face! Th...
I have been jumping since 1972, and this was my 1668 th jump, so I'm not first jump awed, or stuff.
Joe Richards, manager and old friend put in a good word for me with my tandem master Igor, and Dennis the camera guy.
I'll tell you what, I could not have been treated any better! Speaking as a 70 y...
Went a few years back for my first skydiving experience. I had the best instructor I could ask for. He was extremely comforting and knowledgeable, and every question I had he answered happily. Easily one of the best experiences of my life and I would highly recommend this place to anybody trying to ...
What an awesome addictive adventure, Honestly can t say enough about how good the customer service was. From the first phone call to my instructor Utah Steve. This place will definitely see me for years to come. If your even thinking about skydiving you owe it yo yourself to avoid the rest and get...
Smoothest Landing I ve ever had skydiving, fun staff.
Having been to Skydive the Ranch twice now, I can't say enough. The staff are experienced, fun, and they have the operation down to a very smooth process. I've been elsewhere in Upstate NY once before and comparing the two places are night and day. They know what they are doing at STR and I highly r...
This drop zone feels like home. You ll always have fun and will always lean something new from the deep pool of knowledgeable skydivers here.
Amazing experience, will definitely be back. Felt so safe the entire time. Utah is the man!
The skydive was awesome my tandem diver was the best the people were great we'll do it again and again I guarantee you will live it do it
This place is seriously AWESOME! They are friendly and so experienced with everything. Me and my friends had such a great time that we ll remember forever. It was a first for all of us and everyone was super helpful with calming nerves. Just make sure you get the picture and video package because yo...
Thrilling experience!! The instructors really helped ease our nerves by talking to us before hand about what we should expect up in the air. I felt completely safe. The video/photos are expensive, but I believe they were worth it. We went during a skydiving festival so we were also able to see a lot...
Cool place, I by no means sky dived, but the people there were nice and helpful.
Went back to Skydive The Ranch after a 19 year hiatus and had a great tandem jump - can't believe I waited so long to go back! The service was stellar from start to finish; my jumpmaster, Eric N., was great and made me feel totally comfortable and excited about the jump. Highly recommend, without re...
I'm a student at skydive the ranch and must say its an incredible place, great people, great staff, awesome atmosphere. That being said, when do you re-open for 2020 season? Itching to get back up there!!
awesome experience for the second jump! tandem instructor did a few flips before I pulled the cord. I cannot wait to work on my license in the spring.
Instructors are wonderful. Your tandem partner makes you feel comfortable. Safe, fun & exciting with people who care about your safety.
this place is amazing! I love the atmosphere.... my first skydive was in 2008 and I loved it back then but the skydive was a gift and I was too poor to take up the sport.... fast forward to today and 25 successful jumps all made at the ranch later I can honestly say the staff/instructors/coaches are...
Top staff, flexible on jump times, they give you a discount if you are a repeat jumper. They make great vidoes so if it's you first jump get it. You can't beat the price and they have decades of experience across the team. Book early and budget an extra 30 mins in travel time the road there can cong...
This is the second time my son and I have jumped with the ranch and the first time for my daughter and my sons girlfriend. It was my daughters 18th birthday and it didn t disappoint. Everyone was positive, reassuring and full of good energy!! Tall Eric, handsome Eric, Igor, Comrade , Tristen (amazin...
This was the best experience of my life! My instructor was Tall Eric and he was so amazing! He made me feel so comfortable and safe. I can t wait to go again!
Terrible staff, really not good for first timers, and not understanding at all about cancellations or rescheduling, they d rather keep your measly $40 deposit than our customer loyalty. Better to jump somewhere else!
this place was awesome! great ppl and were so helpful and informative. they gave us all the info we needed to feel comfortable, yet took all the precautions to make us feel like we were safe. highly recommend
The staff was the greatest very helpful and my jump instructor was the best John. He made me feel so at ease. and so ready to take my first jump,,He explained everything every step of the way , I will be doing this again and my daughter is going to be with me jumping again, She'll be doing her firs...
Had my first tandem jump and I say first because there's no way I can't not go again. My guy John and the videographer Comrade were amazing. Made me feel at ease the entire time and I needed it. John kept me calm the whole way up, pointing out locations on the ground to dristract me (It's almost lik...
One of the best skydiving location with stunning views
Definitely recommended ! The people there make you feel super comfortable! Love it
Great experience. Friendly staff. Funny, entertaining. Will make you want to do it again and again.
Amazing experience, the staff at Skydive the ranch did a great job in making me feel comfortable although I was terrified in the beginning, that quickly went away. Would definitely come back, phenomenal service.
Made my first tandem jump with Steve "Utah". It was an awesome experience. It was a little rushed at the beginning but the staff was very helpful and courteous. Steve was awesome and explained everything start to finish. Get the video package it was worth the money! I plan on returning to start the ...
It's really an amazing experience and the staff are super friendly and i got some pretty good pictures and beautifully edited video. I love to visit again
Awesome. Very professional and nice guys. Very fun
First time skydiving for me and my daughter. Staff & instructors fabulous. Worth every penny.
Friendly and amazing staff. I had a great dive and would definitely go again!
I have jumped in MANY different DZs in US in over 19 years in the sport. This is the best one I know: great people, facilities, 4 turbine aircrafts, awesome coaches and best vibes you can fine ANYWHERE.
You guys were greaaaat Thank you for making me feel safe !
I've done 4 tandem skydives at Skydive The Ranch and every time the experience was better and better! This is the place to go for your 1st, 2nd, 3rd skydive. Or even more. The tandem masters are all awesome, patient, friendly and very knowledgeable. Not a far car ride from the city or you can even t...
Amazing experience. The staff was phenomenal. Highly recommended!
I had a great experience at the ranch. The staff, especially my tandom instructor Igor made me feel comfortable and safe before during and after the dive. It was a once and a lifetime experience.
Great time at the ranch, as soon as you get on the sight you automatically feel the energy this company has. The instructors, the photographer, and the other staff all amazing. I will definitely recommend Skydive The Ranch to all my friends and family! I just want to say thank you for the jump, trul...
Place is awesome. Second time coming here and definitely won't be the last!!!
Bucket list activity checked off due to the exceptional service offered by these people. Not once did I feel nervous and or scared they made you felt like you would jump all day everyday... I have been recommending them and I most definitely would go back

Truly the most amazing experience! I am addicted and already planning our next group trip in August. John is literally the best, I refuse to jump with anyone else!!

This was the most awesome., Exhilarating, peaceful and amazing experience I have ever had! The staff is off the charts professional and so much fun! Always felt safe, always secure, cant wait to go again!!
Had the most amazing experience for my first tandem skydive! Can t imagine going anywhere else. The staff was incredible from booking my reservation, to checking in, to getting suited up and then jumping everyone was informative and enjoyable. Everyone was so knowledgeable and made sure to make me c...
I absolutely loved skydiving. My first time was at Skydive The Ranch. I cannot as a human being tell you how much fun I had. No words can describe how it felt but I'm telling you it felt absolutely fantastic to jump from a plane that is so high in the air that you almost feel like you're flying. I w...
The Number One Dropzone in the World for Fun Jumpers and First Time Students. Shawanga, Fly Baby Fly!
Crazy fun experience and great staff who will keep you safe!
My wife and brother in law jumped on saturday. It was an awesome experience. Very laid back atmosphere and the instuctors and staff were very friendly and helpful. Couldn't recomend the ranch enough.
Not exactly the place for me. The people were all pretty cool but not a big fan of the landing area or the nonchalant attitude about landing direction. When I asked which way are we landing I was told "Well what ever way you land is the direction you are landing." Was not cool with that at all. U...
Had the most amazing day jumping out of a plane for my father s 62nd birthday! Everyone was so sweet and knowledgeable! Thank you Eric for my tandem and Taylor for the photos/video!
This was a promise to my daughter that we made five years ago as her graduation gift from high school, once she turned 18. It was the best gift I could give her. Thanks for your expertise and love of adventure.
Great staff, very helpful & accommodating & confident. My guy Jeff made me feel comfortable & @ ease. Gave a quick rundown, before, on the plane ride up & while on our little tour in the air..lol. I went to accompany my mother for her birthday & she too had a great experience, also had some awesome ...
I love Skydive The Ranch Awesome service i didn t had to wait at all for my turn my instructor JM is awesome I enjoyed so much..love it and I will definitely go back to skydive again..thanks Skydive The Ranch to make it possible
Had an amazing time! You may want to check out the videographers beforehand and handpick one whose style you love. Either way you won't regret it!
I wanted something EPIC to do to celebrate my 60th Birthday during this horrible pandemic year. Couldn't do a big blowout party with a band and karaoke. What could possibly provide that kind of epic experience? THIS, THIS THIS! I cannot say enough positive things about the entire operation at the...
I had a really fantastic and successful first jump thanks to an amazing instructor and videographer. I highly recommend Skydive the Ranch.
First jump for a friend and myself. Jeff was calm and reassuring---exactly what I'd want my first tandem jump to be like! Our videographers were better than I would have imagined possible---who straps a dsrl & gopro to their helmet and then uploads within the hour?
