Beautiful experience - This was a wonderful experience- our guide Taylor was very considerate and explained everything. My horse was perfect for me as a 75 year old who hasn’t been on a horse in 55 years.

Maiden voyage - It was wonderful. I have never ridden a horse, and our guide was very informative and attentive. My water bottle fell out of my pocket on the ride. I told her because I felt like I defiled the land. She assured me she would find it, but inquired if I would be okay without water. So kind.

Wonderful Time - Takes some time to get started but ride is worth it. Horses are pretty solid well mannered. Non riders seemed to do well. We enjoyed being “passengers” and not having to actively ride. Enjoyed the beautiful scenery. Trail guides were friendly and chill. Lots of opportunities for pictures.

We took an afternoon ride... - We took an afternoon ride up the mountains with Taylor as our guide. We are pretty inexperienced with horseback riding and really had no problems. Beautiful views and animals. Great way to spend an afternoon!

Picturesque horse experience - Beautiful trail ride on well trained horses up through mountains and wooded areas. A beautiful glen at the top to rest and take photos! Guide was hilarious riding bareback.

Horse riding fantastic! TripAdvisor was awful!!! - The Bair ranch was wonderful. Very friendly and helpful. Kids had a great time. TripAdvisor was not so helpful. FYI if by chance your credit card needs to be changed they cannot accommodate you. You have to cancel and rebook at a high rate it possible. Direction were never sent, and waver link didn’t work. Other company I use for other activity was wonderful. Again Bair Ranch was fantastic.
