Our family of four - 2 adults and 2 kids ages 10 and 8 - did the one hour tour. We are all beginners and the horses were easy to ride. Our tour guide Mike did a great job interacting with everyone and making sure everyone had good control of their horse. It was scenic trip up some hills and... More

The first hour was great, then we were stuck in the mountains in the pouring rain. I was at the end of the line and the guide only appeared to be interested in the people in the front. So, at the end, when my horse lost total control, no one knew because she had left me behind. Eventually another guide... More

Our family of five has a fabulous time riding yesterday. Some of the horses are a little onery about about stopping to graze, but that's the case everywhere. Brandy was a wonderful guide, and the scenery is gorgeous.

We wanted to go horseback riding and had a different stable in mind. We decided since they were right up the road from where we were staying, we would try them. BEST DECISION EVER!!!!

I returned for second ride but no 4hour ride offered. I'm gonna try making reservations next time. I would recommend them for a pleasure experience overall...

We booked in for a two o'clock ride but as it was apparent we would be early, rang ahead and it was no problem for them. When we arrived 15 minutes later the horses were saddled and ready for us. With just the three of us in the party, our guide Matt took us for a lovely ride through the... More

I've been to a few stables here & there and this one was hands down the best. They give great instruction and pair you with a horse based on your experience. Which for me was good since I've had horses before. I didn't just have a "trail horse" that follows the leader!!!
