My grandchildren were visiting and they wanted to ride a horse. Merrill was absolutely fantastic with our 3 year old grandson and 5 year old granddaughter. They helped groom the horse and then took turns riding. They had a blast and I would highly recommend this experience.

I have stayed in the cowgirl cabin a few times and absolutely loved it! So cozy and comfortable with amazing views! Merrill is lovely and so helpful with any questions. It made for a very restful vacation.
