Why Trail Ride in a Straight Line?

“Beautiful Trail” My family and I had a wonderful time riding. We passed beautiful creeks and were surrounded by pine trees which was great aroma therapy. The staff was knowledgeable and pleasing. The horses were well trained and followed each other through the trails so don’t worry if you are a beginner. Enjoy!

Cricket
First Newfoundland Pony I found Cricket as a two year old in a pasture alone after her pasture mate had died. She had been purchased from the Newfoundland Island as a pasture buddy for the aging horse. When Cricket arrived, she was perfect in so many ways. I taught her to lunge in the round […]
