1. Expert wrangler guides each ride.

2. Well trained horses for all skill levels. Our horses are all show & performance horses. These are not "rental string" horses that only know how to follow each other. Riders are expected to learn basic commands and follow the wranglers directions at all times. 

3. All trail rides start in the arena for you to learn your horse's basic commands. Safety is our first priority, so we stay in the arena until you are comfortable on your horse. Remember, these are highly trained show & performance horses who are responsive to the cues you give.

4. Rider Weight Limit is 180 lbs. Horses have sensitive backs and there is a limit on how much weight they can carry safely. By law, horses used for rental cannot be asked to carry more than 20% of their body weight. An average western saddle weighs 35 lbs. Most horses range from 900 to 1100 pounds. If you are a larger rider, we can recommend some ranches that stock larger horses for your trail ride.

5. Group Size & Fees. We can accommodate groups of 1 to 3. One rider is $50, 2 or 3 are $40 each. Most rides are 1 hour, but we can schedule longer rides by request. 

We always have a good time!!
