We just got home from our visit to the The Stables at the French Lick Resort. (3 hour drive - one way) Doug, at the front desk, was amazing. He was so kind and inviting. I called like 5 times in the week I had the reservation for various reasons. He was so nice and accommodating.
The ladies that helped us with the horses, got us on them, talked us through how to guide them, and lead us were so knowledgeable and patient with us. If we had questions, they had answers.
The trail itself was breathtaking. Right after the first snow of the season, it was cold, but man was it beautiful. We saw several deer on the trail and in the woods around it.
We had my 9 yo son with us and they were so great with him, as he had never ridden before. He LOVED IT!
We will definitely be going back. I cannot recommend...
Read moreThey do a fantastic job with trail rides and even little pony rides for the kids. It was about $200 for myself and two of my kids to go. We went on a 45 minute trail ride on a Saturday morning. We scheduled it ahead of time. They were very flexible and easy going and we thoroughly enjoyed our time. They have a huge property with walking trails as well. We saw several deer throughout the different trails and they we were very calm and close to us, likely because of the presence of the horses. It was well worth it and we would definitely like to do it again. They do an excellent job of knowing each horse and taking care of the animals in a personal way. You can take a tour of the stables as well. They had some very small ponies that they take the little kids for rides on. Definitely worth...
Read moreWe visited the Stables over the summer. Originally we had come to Frenchlick just to play golf at the Donald Ross and Valley Links courses but decided to take one morning and go to investigate the other attractions that Frenchlick had to offer. The Stables was one of the best places we visited. The staff (Doug especially) was beyond friendly and helpful not to mention the riding was amazing as well. The horses knew the trails very well and had no problems. For someone who has not ridden a horse before, this was a great comfort. Our guide Lindsay was friendly, helpful, and informative. We would not hesitate to go back here on our future trips...
