The ranch boasts a remarkable collection of vintage and neon signs dating back to the 1930s all the way through the 1970s.

But that's not all! The Conoco Bar is another crowd favorite at Adler Ranch. This unique addition came about by accident when Kurt and Marlys stumbled upon a Conoco sign during a motorcycle ride. With their creativity in full swing, they transformed it into a turning bar with inviting bar seating, now affectionately known as the Conoco Bar. It's a delightful spot to unwind and enjoy a refreshing drink.
