We had a lovely horse ride in gently falling snow. Our guide McCartney was knowledgeable, friendly, and entertaining. The horses all were well-groomed and easy to ride. There was hot chocolate and cookies waiting for us when we returned.

Had a great time at Saddleback Ranch. Macartney our guide, was a fantastic guide. She engaged with everyone on the 2hr ride, whilst giving us the full rundown of activities in the working ranch and its rich family history. Breathtaking views from the ranch's highest point highlighting an inspiring outlook over the property.
