Grandchildren Delight

"My seven year old granddaughter loved it, as did I. They made her feel welcome and comfortable. The trail was through scenic fields and trees, with a nice variety of terrain. We will be sure to return with her younger sister next year!"

Worth the price!

"Everyone gets their own horse even the kids. That means parents don’t have to hover. 5.5 year old stayed in just fine. 8 year old was in control of his own horse and lives the responsibility. Very fun trip!"

We had a blast

"My kids loved the one hour horseback ride!!! We couldnt stop talking about how much fun we had. Planning another trip soon."

Great staff!

"Family run and they took the time to match our group with a horse based on their previous riding experience. Got a chance to trot but overall it was a nice pleasant walk through the woods. Loved it!"
