My husband, 6 year old daughter and I enjoyed our horseback riding experience last week. The trail was phenomenal-it had a little bit of everything from easy, flat terrain to rocky, muddy and up/down hill. I was a little worried about my daughter, since she's so little and had no horseback-riding experience, but Joshua, who was our guide took special care to make sure she was safe and had a fun experience. He was also very knowledgeable of the area and the history of this organization. We had a great time!

I’ve ridden horses before, but would still call myself a beginner for sure, saying this in the fact that I felt like this was my first actual horse ride on a trail. You definitely get your money’s worth In this tour not only do you get real training in handling a horse, but the view and the trail Is very nice, plus your on the horse for over an hour so definitely worth doing. Plus our guide Josh was extremely patient with all my freaking out moments, and I had quite a few 😕, but all in all it was a great adventure and am definitely glad that I got to do!

It’s was a great experience for our family of 2 adults and 2 kids ages 8 and 11. The business is family owned and operated. We received perfect instruction and our guide Jessica was knowledgeable and fun. The horses are beautiful and really nice. Highly recommend this for nature and animal lovers.
