How do I reserve a horse for a trail ride?

All of our trail rides are by appointment only.  Once we get  busy, usually the end of April, we will have a schedule posted with ride times.  Until then, you can give us a call, or e-mail us through the following link and we can schedule a ride for you and your family or friends.  We can accomodate 1 to  8 people per ride.  We schedule rides 7 days per week from dusk to dawn, our schedule and weather permitting.

Why don't you let us ride without helmets?

The short answer, because my insurance company says you have to.  The real answer, because horses like any large animal are unpredictable and we do not want anyone to get hurt.  Riders 17 years and older are not required to wear helmets, but we encourage all riders to wear them.  We have helmets available for any riders that desire to wear one.   All riders, regardless or whether or not they wear a helmet, must sign a waiver releasing us from liability.  Riders under the age of 18 must have a waiver signed by their parent or legal guardian.
