Icicle Outfitter & Guides — Local services in Leavenworth

I spent much of my childhood riding with Icicle through the nearby Summer Camp (Zanika) and they were always so fantastic with us kids. Now, 15 years later, we've come back with the next generation of our family and they are still just as wonderful.

My sister-in-law and I wanted to take my two young nephews (two and three years old) on a trail ride with us, so we called to schedule one for the next day. But oops, we accidentally made a reservation with their Leavenworth location in town rather than their location at the State Park on Lake Wenatchee. When we showed up this morning for our reservation, there was no guide there! We called in, and Megan immediately helped us resolve our scheduling mistake and personally saw to it that we would still get a ride in that day.

Two hours later (we killed time at the playground at the state park), we were back at the stable and on our horses (July and Cookie) with the boys! Megan personally took us on our ride, and was an amazing guide-- very patient with the littles and constantly checking in with us to make sure they were doing okay.

We came here as an activity for part of my Bachelorette party trip. The stables were accommodating of our large group so we were appreciative of that. However the horses were not well behaved - my horse kept attempting to bite any horse in front of it, which caused the horses to become anxious and keep switching spots. There was another horse behind me that reared up from a confrontation of a different horse. The horses kept trying to move and cut in front of each other. We also did not get a full hour in. But overall it was a fun trail ride, and very scenic. I would go again, for a last minute thing but perhaps do some shopping around to see what would suit you and your party’s...

Caleb and Aria were absolutely wonderful. I unfortunately am too big to ride and they were able to have my 3 yr old ride her own horse (Little Joe) and pony him for the 2 mile trail so she could enjoy the experience. The horses are well trained and the other staff we interacted with were very polite and accommodating. We booked with short notice without issue, they had shorter stirrups for the kiddos to help them stay securely on the horse. My friend said the trail was wonderful and not very difficult. I would book them again on our next trip. Very reasonably...
