Our American Heritage Girls Pioneer and Patriot unit had a fabulous time at Robbers Cave Stables overnight ride and camping event. When we got there, we went for a one hour ride up to the cave. The horses were well trained but still had their own personalities, which makes for an interesting and entertaining ride! We climbed around on the rocks, saw the cave and took some fantastic group pictures with the gorgeous views. All of us got back on the horses for another hour ride back to the campsite. There we had a delicious dinner of smoked chicken, potato salad, and baked beans. After dinner we had the pleasure of listening to Mr. Bean sing cowboy songs and recitate cowboy poetry. There are a couple of hikes that you can take that are not far from camp. One is a blazed trail down to the trappers cabin. The other is an unblazed trail down to the creek. We chose the creek. Everyone had a chance to cool off. Then we got up Sunday morning and had a flavorful breakfast of a cowboy quesadilla followed by very scenic one hour ride back to the stables. I highly recommend this trip for anyone! I was very pleased with Glen and Misty! They made putting this trip together a breeze! They are flexible and their whole family took extremely good care of us. We were lacking for nothing and had a...
Read moreMy family had a terrible experience here and are extremely disappointed. My wife booked a ride online for noon today and received and email letting us know they had an issue with their booking system and the time we had requested was actually full. She explained that we had an obligation and needed to be home early and inquired about any other times. She was told that there was a 4pm ride available and to show up early and we should be able to get going. We arrived at 3:15 and were told they were running an hour to an hour and a half behind. That meant we were looking at 5 or 5:30 to get on the trail for our 4pm ride which was originally booked as a noon ride. Unfortunately our schedule wouldn’t allow us to wait and after being let down twice by this business I didn’t have much faith in the hour to hour and a half estimate. We were reluctantly given a refund but when you have a broken hearted 7 year old that is in tears, that’s not much consolation. I would steer clear of this stable as they appear to not have a good grasp of the way a business...
Read moreI took my 4 year old granddaughter here for an outing. We chose the Bell Star ride. She insisted on riding her own horse. This was the 2nd time she'd been on a horse. The first time was a trail ride as well, but she shared my horse. This time she got her own. I was so impressed. Misty put her next in line & watched her well. Her horse was very tame & well trained. We both had such an enjoyable ride. The owners are kind & knowledgeable. They were our guides. This is a great way to acquaint a child with being on a horse. Their horses are well fed, well trained, & obviously loved. We had...
