Master Your Horse
Curate Memories
Immerse Yourself
No ‘head-to-tail’ rides here!
Our signature pre-ride routine with hands on coaching is what sets this experience apart for our guests from the get-go. With our help, you get to brush and saddle your horse followed by learning to handle the reins and how to ride before getting on. This rich segment of your ride takes and hour or a little more. We will saddle in advance for children and anyone who prefers not to saddle.
“I am in LOVE!”
“I am in LOVE! Everything here is a breath of fresh air. I just love how cozy and welcoming the house is as well as the owner. This is a great escape from the hustle and bustle. I am definitely taking it all in. The land/surroundings are beautiful. The horses running over the horizon is the sight to see! Come check it out for yourself! ??
Thoughtful amenities · Spacious rooms · Historic building”
– Patricia Roberts (December 2018)
“Highly Recommended”
“I especially enjoyed the opportunity to understand how the horse thinks and why they react as they do. Lots of new knowledge gained! One of my biggest takeaways was “whoever moves her feet first loses” and the concept of the horse respecting your personal space — key for your own safety! “
– Liz C.

Your horseback riding dream!
We offer small party, private rides.
Range Ride 101 – $115/person
Start Time: 9 am Total Time: 3 hours
Best ride for age 10 and under or those looking for about two hours of saddle time, after one hour of learning to saddle & ride before we head out. This scenic ride gives you enough time to get the hang of your horse and test yourself a bit if riding is new to you or you are not sure how your body will do.
Picnic Ride – $140/person
Start Time : 9 am Total Time: 4 hours
Think ‘Range Ride 101 plus a picnic’ – a great idea!! Shade up near a creek for a relaxing picnic and a chance to visit with your guide while the horses happily munch grass nearby. Great choice for those with kids!
Rancher’s Ride – $165/person
Start Time : 6am or8am Total Time: 5 hours
This ride is for you if you’d like the fun challenge of learning how to handle cattle with your horse while learning about cattle ranching. Saddle time is at least three hours and sometimes more depending on the job at hand. Food is a welcome break and a satisfying breakfast is included if we start at dawn, or a picnic if you choose a later start. Best for kids over 10 depending on the kid 🙂
Sunrise Ride – $140/person
SUMMER ONLY
Sunrise Start Time : 6am Total Time: 4 hours
This is a ‘Picnic Ride’ that starts at dawn… this is a jewel as the break of day is a precious time, and well worth getting up at ‘dark:thirty’ 🙂 This is a SUMMER ONLY ride. Kid friendly ride also!
Crystal Falls Ride – $165/person SUMMER ONLY
Start Time : 8am Total time: 5 hours
Crystal Falls is a gem on public land just above the ranch boundary. Plan on about three hours of saddle time plus a picnic to enjoy this very scenic ride. Don’t forget about the one hour of learning to saddle and ride before you go! Best for kids over 10, depending on the kid 🙂

Wagon & Sled Rides
Cost: $230 for first two riders, $20 for riders 3-8 Total Time: 2 hours
Add a picnic and cost is $280 for first two riders, and $30 for riders 3-8 Total Time: 3 hours
If horseback riding is not for you, the team and wagon is a wonderful alternative! If part of your group wants to ride, the others in your group can take the wagon on a different route and rendezvous with the riders for the picnic. You will fall in love with Mo and Jo, our trusty draft horses who love their job! They are so beautiful to watch. The wagon has three cushy seats and can handle 8 adults.
When we get a nice ground covering snow we convert the wagon to a sleigh and add the jingle bells. This magical experience will also include hot chocolate and a toasty warm fire along the way. A picnic may be added, and is encouraged year-round. You’ll be amazed at the memories you will create. The more the merrier on this special experience.
Book your Wagon or Sleigh Ride!
Winter Rides
From November through April, the rides that normally include food will now also allow you to knock off the chill of winter by gathering around and making a toasty bonfire out on the ride (provided we are not experiencing a fire ban). Hot chocolate or alternate hot beverage is always included.
• Winter: No cattle in the winter but the extra saddle time allows you to see more of the ranch’s unique and stunning landscape.
