Horseback Riding and Petting Zoo

Overview

We provide a controlled environment for safe horseback riding for kids and beginners, and a petting zoo. We have a 24,440 sqft equestrian center with a spectacular view of Mississippi river sunsets. We also rent apartments where you can see the animals and beautiful scenery right outside your windows. Our horses are calm and happy in this place. They love to be petted and groomed. The goats, pigs, and chickens are friendly, and will eat out of your hands. Rub the pigs belly, scratch the goats between their horns and feed meal worms to the chickens and watch the smiles grow on your family's faces. The ducks provide comical quacking as they waddle around the property. The pigs grunt as they seek out food anywhere they can find it. The goats stay with the horses and butt heads with each other. The miniature horse is absolutely wonderful with kids. Everything we do is slow, controlled, and safe. We move along at your pace. Please wear sturdy shoes. No flip flops around horses.

Quiet peaceful place with warm-hearted hosts. All the animals are so sweet and safe for my 4 year old to pet. Her first time on the horse was amazing! She can’t wait to go back. We also got to pet goats, dogs, miniature pig and month old baby chicks. My daughter can’t stop talking about it. Will definitely go back.

What a lovely time and so much fun! The staff were amazing to us and gave us the opportunity to ride solo. Thank
