A friend of mine recommended i go to Chanslor Ranch in Bodega Bay and do the 2hr horseback ride on the beach. My husband and i booked it the night before and we booked our ride for 130pm, we arrived at 1230 as traffic was lighter than expected and they took us right away anyways. We had a private ride...

This is a beautiful ranch and you have the option of a one hour ride on the ranch or a two hour ride down on the beach. We selected the one hour ride and it was great fun with good horses, not nags! The only problem with these people, and it happened twice, is that although one makes a reservation... More

Everyone on the ranch was very nice. Went for 1 hour ride @ $65.00 per person, if I was to do it again I would pay the extra and do the beach ride. 1 hour ride very ordinary trail ride. More

We went on their one hour horseback ride. It was pretty affordable because we got a mid-week discount ($90 for two people). The scenery is gorgeous, and it's a nice trail. The lead wrangler (I think his name is Ron) is very friendly. All in all, a pleasant activity. More

I brought up two horses with me, and rented a room in the main house. The accomodations were beautiful and clean and so relaxing. The ranch was awesome. The staff was very friendly and accomodating. I know a lot about horses and I can tell that the staff/owners love horses and they are really well taken care of. They took... More

In September we hosted a family reunion at Bodega Bay's Chanslor Ranch, renting the main house and the loft. What a good choice it turned out to be! The graciously appointed and completely equipped main house, with its three bedrooms and three baths, large living room, formal dining room, breakfast dining area, and large, well-equipped kitchen, was the perfect focal...

I brought 4 people with me who've never been on horses before and we had the best experience, from beginning to end. The staff is sweet and attentive, the ranch seems like a nice environment for the horses and the horses themselves look well groomed, and are "well-behaved". I'm buying a gift certificate for my friends' one-year wedding anniversary, and... More

We took a ride along the beach for our honeymoon. Scott was so nice when he greeted us. He got us hooked up with "Honey" and "Chey" our horses. Jake, our guide, is THE BOMB. He was so knowledgable and patient with us first time riders. During this trip, we had the opportunity to do a lot of activities but... More

If you love horses, the chance for riding in the California hills or along the Pacific is alluring. I own a horse, and sometimes one is disappointed with rides offered by a public stable. I was very glad I rode with Scott at the Chanslor Ranch, though! The horses are loved and well-kept. Various rides are offered, and I chose... More
