Pleasure Ride

Escape to a quieter world as our gentle horses take you on leisurely paced mountainous trail rides. Breathe deep and smell the clean air scented with pine. Watch closely as you ride along and see how many different wild flowers you can see. With a little luck you may also catch a glimpse of a wild turkey or white tail deer. Ranch dogs will entertain you as they playfully dash about looking for tree squirrels. Friendly guides accompany all rides to help point out little things easily missed, share their knowledge of the area and to help ensure a safe ride. The hour to hour and a half on the trail will quickly pass, but you are more then welcome to stay a little longer and enjoy homemade refreshments and visit on the tack room porch.

Usually offered at 10:00 a.m. & 1:00 p.m.

Evening Dinner Ride


Enjoy the cool evening air and tranquil mountain trails for about an hours trail ride. You will be met by our horsedrawn chuckwagon and the mouth watering aroma of steaks frying, coffee perking, warm homemade bread and all the trimmings to complete a truly western meal. Kick back, enjoy that last cup of coffee and dessert before you mount up and ride back to the barn. In September, when the days are shorter, we start as early as possible and usually come back to our barn area to enjoy dinner and an alluring campfire.

Begins at 6:00 p.m. (Earlier in September)
Minimum Age: 8 years old
Pricing: $55 per person/$330 minimum
(Note: We will gladly try to group folks together so a ride has at least 6 people)
