Rules and Guidelines
Please take a moment to carefully read and familiarize yourself with the following rules and recommendations before booking your ride. Some of these guidelines will be reiterated along with the instructions upon your arrival, though not all will be covered. Therefore, it is important that all members of your party review the following information. Thank you for your attention to this matter.​​
​
Payment in full is required at the time of booking and is non-refundable.
We do ride in rainy conditions, as well as in hot or cold weather.
We will reschedule in the event of thunderstorms with lightning, as well as during extreme weather conditions, including freezing temperatures, excessive heat or heavy rainfall. Please make sure to include good contact info such as phone numbers when booking.
In the event of cancellation or rescheduling your payment will be held for your next reservation.
It is your responsibility to contact us should you need to reschedule. We understand things happen we just ask that you call at least 24 hours prior to your scheduled ride time if you need to reschedule.
The number of horses that you reserve will be the number you are charged for. (example: If you book 7 horses and only arrive with 4 riders, then you will not get refund for the others.)
If you fail to show up for your scheduled ride without notifying us in advance, you will lose your right to reschedule.
A minimum of one rider in each group must be at least 18 years of age. By making a payment and agreeing to the terms, that individual assumes full responsibility for all underage riders in their party.
Please make sure to choose the correct number of riders on the book online form where it says number of rider 4 years old and older. If you fail to do this part correctly we cannot grantee you the space you need for your ride.
There is a limit to 10 riders per ride, if the number of riders you need isn't available at that ride time please call and to inquire if your party can be accommodated or if there is a different time available.
Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your reservation time.
Everyone must sign a liability waiver upon check in at the stables to participate.
We do have a short safety speech that every person in your party is required to be present for prior to getting on the horses.
Late arrival--You will be given 10 minutes past your scheduled time before you will relinquish that reservation. If you are the only party at a particular ride time then your ride can be cut short, to accommodate following reservations, without any discount.
Dress Code
All shoes must have a backing (no flip flops, crocs without back straps, etc.)
Shorts are acceptable; however we suggest long pants.
All loose articles (hats, shades, cell phones, etc.) must be secure to your person. We can not stop the ride to pick up dropped items. We are not responsible for dropped items.
Horses
Horses will be picked for you based on age, size and riding experience.
Please keep all horses in a single file line throughout the trail ride.
We ask you to please keep all horses approx.. 6ft apart. The horse in front of you would prefer not to have your horse to close behind.
This is a walking trail only! No running/trotting of our horses will be permitted on the ride, you will be asked to dismount and return to the equine parking lot with no refund.
No riding experience is required. Our horses are all older, gentle, and well-experienced horses.
Weight Policy
To ensure the well-being of our horses, we have a overall weight limit of 250 pounds with specific height requirements:
- **151lbs-200lbs:** Minimum height 5'0"
- **201lbs-250lbs:** Minimum height 5'5"
All riders are subject to check in for weight and height compliance before riding.
Guideline Rationale:
Achieving the correct saddle fit, combined with suitable weight balance and distribution, is crucial for the comfort and safety of both the rider and the horse. Factors including weight, height, and saddle dimensions play a significant role in determining this fit.
Prioritizing the comfort and safety of our horses is of utmost importance. These guidelines aim to protect the well-being of our horses and ensure a safe riding experience for everyone involved.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
