About the provider

Yelp reviews say the ranch is run by a family that loves what they do. One review says staff spent time with each rider going over how to ride and making sure they were comfortable, and another says the quick lesson before the ride was helpful.

What families say

“Amazing service and very accommodating, as someone who hadn't been around horses in 10 years the quick lesson before the ride is amazing. I had Sam as my guide and she was very nice. The horses are very friendly and responsive and the nice hands who met us at the gate also helped direct us where we needed to go. The photos came right on time and my friends will definitely be back.” — Brandon T. | Yelp

“This ranch is ran by a family that loves what they do. Everyone helped get us set up and they spent time with each rider going over how to ride and making sure we were comfortable. If you are a beginner or taking your kid for the first time I suggest coming here. The horses were all great and listened to the riders. The trail they take you on isn't hard and it's a beautiful area.” — Hollie M. | Yelp
