Guest notes

Rated 4.9 across 480 reservations.

I have ridden all my life and still learned more in one clinic here than in three seasons at home.

The wellness session did something I can't quite explain. An hour with a horse and my shoulders dropped two inches.

Twelve guests a day means it genuinely feels like the ranch is yours. Booking took two minutes.

Good to know

Questions, answered.

Still unsure? Talk to the barn office.

Do I need riding experience?+

No. Over half our guests are first-timers. Every booking starts with a groundwork intro and a horse matched to your level.

Why is everything pre-paid?+

It lets us cap the day at twelve guests, rest horses on rotation and staff the right guides. Your deposit holds the horse, not just the slot.

What if the weather turns?+

We reschedule at no cost and your deposit moves with you. Cancellations more than 72 hours out are refunded in full.

What should I bring?+

Long trousers and closed shoes. Helmets, boots, chaps and wet-weather layers are all provided at the barn.

Can you host groups or private events?+

Yes — parties of six or more are arranged through the barn office, including corporate away-days and celebrations.
