My Boyfriend and I had the best day, as good riders we were worried it might be a a little boring but the scenery, precarious cliff edges, beautiful waterfall and wonderful horses and guide were just fantastic. We got a lovely big lunch and time at the waterfall midday.

We had been riding here six years ago and came back this year. Our rangler was very knowledgeable and friendly and we all had a nice ride through the mountains. If you want a nice ride, use them.

The ride was enjoyable and the guide was awesome. Very scenic and fine! Highly recommend. Have been here several times and would go back for sure.

These people own the same stable that offers tours of the Garden of the Gods, but trust me, HIKE the Gods and go to Nathrop for this adventure instead. The ranch has Mount Princeton as a back drop and the scenic beauty is astonishing. They took my family on a ride that was unforgettable. We rode up into the mountains and finally reached our destination for lunch, which they provided, a WATERFALL! My God it was gorgeous! The ride to and back took up a good chunk of the day. It was another cherished memory. The staff was tremendous too. Be sure to tip your guide, they work hard at your enjoyment. A MUST SEE AND DO.

I asked my 8yr old and 14yr old what part of our vacation was the most fun and they said "The horses!" We did the Waterfall ride and it was well worth the sore bottom in the morning. Highly recommend.

Our guides Heidi and Ron were wonderful. The one hour trail ride goes through beautiful scenery. Enjoyed it immensely.
-
The trail was scenic and a beautiful reprieve from soaking in the hot springs. The horses were well maintained and friendly. Overall a great experience for couples or families.

We took a 2 hour ride through the high desert. We had tow wranglers, one experienced and knowledgeable and one not much of either. The horses were well suited to our abilities and we saw a variety of flora and fauna, through streams, forests and high desert. Well worth it. Wish the horses had more shelter from the heat and rain but we understand this is a business.

Nice to com across a riding place that really and truly cares for their horses. They are well covered and lovely temperaments, well schooled too. Loved the mule which is part of the family. Very knowledgeable and friendly wranglers. Recommend as a must do when staying in the area.

Our group did a combination morning raft (awesome) and afternoon 2 hour ride. Upon arriving, a very grumpy lady working in the office greeted me with saying there were only 2 of the 5 of us expected. She sighed and mumbled a bit and never made us feel like our business was desired. She never smiled during the entire transaction and so my impression was negative from the start. She assigned our horses.Our wrangler, Kevin was friendly, but had a horse "in training" and had to spend way too much time getting his horse to allow him to mount when needed. Our youngest, lightest, 8 yr old granddaughter was given the most difficult, oldest horse nicknamed "grandma". Even though she has had a little experience, she was unable to kick or swat hard enough to make the horse cooperate. Our wrangler was really not able to efficiently help her mainly because his horse did not seem trained enough for him to come alongside or quickly intervene when necessary. We stopped repeatedly while our poor granddaughter tried to make grandma go. Our 9 year old granddaughter who had never been on a large horse at all (pony rides only) had a horse who followed and responded exactly as the wrangler instructed. Finally, after unsuccessfully trying to take the lead rope and force grandma to follow, he was able to get the lead rope and led the horse. Our granddaughter was frustrated and disappointed that the others in our group had horses who followed and she had to be led. Our route was cut short because of this situation. I continued to be positive and upbeat about the beautiful views and interesting scenery so that the other 2 girls and the youngest granddaughter wouldn't be negative about all the delays and sitting still. I gave this review a 3 because I believe that the horse assigned was a very poor choice for a smaller 8 year old who couldn't control an older, more stubborn horse. The fee for the 2 hour ride was not cheap, so I was disappointed that it wasn't a highlight the way it should have been. It would have been awesome if a) a friendlier person had handled our arrival with a smile. b) "grandma" be given to someone able to be strong enough to light a fire under her and c) the wrangler was on a horse that was able to intervene when it wasn't working.This ride does go thru some very pretty areas, up inclines, down through creeks and meadows. We didn't get to see it all however, because of the repeated delays. I jfelt bad that one child's experience was really damaged by horse assignment and perhaps by the wrangler having a horse under training.
