    What a fabulous time we had! Thank you Sylvia for an incredible time riding gorgeous horses. My friend and I had so many questions about the horses, their habitat, the plants on the trail etc and we had the nicest and most knowledgeable guide. Crossing the river twice was so much fun and felt very safe. We ran into some very friendly people. The horses were gorgeous and well behaved, no issues at all. I highly recommend this experience!

    Staff was friendly helpful and made it a good experience. My son in only 6 so he rode up front. First time riders as a family. Horses very calm and appear to be in good health and cared for.

    Great experience to help patron a locally run horse farm. If you are looking for a trotting experience this isnt it. It is very cool overall. Tips: Bring a hat and glasses as you are going to be in the sun for extended periods. The river crossing is brief but fun. leave your self time to get there and make sure you have pants and closed toe shoes as your riding a horse through brush

  • Great option for first timers

    We really enjoyed this ride which was first time for us. Long enough to get a taste of riding on horseback on a simple trail with a desire to try again. At this location be advised that there is a $20 entry fee to the park for all vehicles, something that we didn’t expect and thought was a lot for the time spent.

  • Amazing!
