Golden Hour Farm

This trail riding operation stands out for offering something genuinely different from the typical nose-to-tail tourist experience. Riders consistently rave about the freedom to actually ride, with opportunities to trot and even gallop while taking in spectacular mountain scenery. The horses are repeatedly praised as well-trained, responsive, and noticeably happier than those at many commercial operations, making the experience feel more authentic for both beginners and experienced riders. Jade, the primary guide, receives glowing praise in nearly every review for her warmth, knowledge, and ability to customize rides based on skill level. First-timers feel immediately comfortable under her guidance, while seasoned riders appreciate the more advanced riding opportunities. Groups are kept small and intimate, perfect for special occasions like anniversaries and birthdays. One delightful bonus: the property also raises grass-fed beef that customers love. The peaceful setting, friendly farm animals, and personalized attention make this feel less like a tourist attraction and more like riding with knowledgeable friends who genuinely care about creating memorable experiences.
