Do you want to unwind from the busy and noisy atmosphere of the city? Why don’t you go out and commune with nature? Want to chill in a place where you are ambient by trees, where you can hear the sounds mother earth produce, listen to the gushing of the water, and feel the coolness as it touches your skin? Are you an animal lover? Do you like the feel of a rider feeling one with the horse? Do you want to spend time with friends, celebrating the wonders and beauty of life or just spend an ordinary day in an extraordinary way? A place is waiting for you. It is just a short ride from the heart of the city.

Bantug Lake Ranch is the perfect place for you. You can chill and relax while enjoying activities and amenities that will surely delight you, your family, and friends. You can locate the green and secluded lake ranch at Barangay Alangilan, Bacolod City. The owner inherited it from his Father Abelardo Bantug Jr. In 2009, the siblings, Michael and Reeda Bantug made the luxuriant orchard poultry and sugarcane field into a lake-ranch. While the family is selling farm lots, Michael decided to dig a lake. The lake is made of fresh water from a running creek that’s generating the water back to the creek. Animal-lover Michael decided to purchase prizewinning breeds and other animals. Some animals are from the benevolent benefactors that also love animals. Now Bantug Lake Ranch is also the home of the animals. Read More: https://www.toponmylist.com/bantug-lake-ranch/
