    This family-owned ranch has earned genuine enthusiasm from visitors, with reviewers consistently praising the obvious care given to their rescued horses. The animals are described as gentle, well-maintained, and clearly loved, which equine enthusiasts particularly notice and appreciate. First-time riders repeatedly mention how patient and thorough the staff is with explanations, answering endless questions without ever making anyone feel rushed or inexperienced. The guides check in frequently during rides, creating a relaxed atmosphere that puts nervous riders at ease. Beyond the trail rides themselves, people love the personal touches and special events. Birthday celebrations get sweet additions like tutus and sashes, while themed rides (glow rides, Halloween rides) create memorable experiences. The scenic woodland trails offer peaceful settings, and the booking process is straightforward with clear communication about what to expect. Groups ranging from senior ladies to first-time riders to experienced horse owners have all left impressed, many planning return visits and spreading the word about their experiences.

    As an equine enthusiast, rescue/fosterer and horse owner I cannot recommend this place enough. I was blown away by the care and knowledge the owner has for her horses. The saddles and saddle pads fit each horse well, you could tell the horses were very well taken care of as far as maintenance farrier, vet, chiropractic work and their bodies and temperament showed they must get great supplements and feed. This isn't something you see very often in the guided trail riding industry and I'm thrilled to have been a customer of theirs. The trail ride was also great, scenic and relaxing. This was a great experience all around.
