We came yesterday and I genuinely can't stop thinking about how special it was. I called last minute in the afternoon after my little one woke up from his nap, not really expecting much -- but they fit us in that same day. From the moment we arrived, Ray made us feel so welcome. He had the horse ready for us, walked us through everything, and was so patient and attentive making sure my little one felt safe and comfortable the whole ride. You could tell he genuinely loves what he does. What we didn't expect was everything that came after. We got to explore the petting zoo, meet the farm animals, and then a staff member came over and introduced us to a baby goat that was only a few days old, my little one's face was absolutely priceless. And then the moment that made this visit truly unforgettable, while my son was laughing away on the horse shaped tire swing, I glanced over and noticed a wobbly little goat behind us. Turns out we were witnessing a mama goat giving birth right there in front of us. Completely unplanned, totally magical. My little one got a nature lesson he'll probably never forget. This place has the most wonderful energy and the staff clearly care deeply about both the animals and their guests. We will absolutely be back. Highly recommend! read more

We booked a two-hour trail ride at the beginning of our trip and had such an amazing experience that we ended up booking a second ride before our vacation was over! I'm an experienced rider and my husband is a beginner, and our guide, Dave, did a fantastic job matching us with horses (and a mule!) that fit our individual experience levels. He also tailored the trail and ride to our abilities, which made the experience fun and memorable for both of us. For our second ride, it had been raining quite a bit, so Dave took us on a one-hour route where the trails were dry enough and safe for the horses. We really appreciated that their safety and well-being came first, and we still had an amazing time. Both rides were such a highlight of our trip. Thank you, Dave, for being such a great guide and for making us feel so welcome in Blue Ridge! We'll absolutely be back the next time we're in the area read more

This place was so awesome. I 100% recommend checking them out if you're visiting BLue Ridge. Hunter, Emily, and Mandie were so friendly and made the experience so enjoyable. We got there early and got to pet the goats and feed them. There were chickens, ducks, and bunnies. Emily and Hunter had their cute dogs there who were fun to play with. The instructions were fast but easy to learn and our ride went super well. Thank you for great customer service and a great experience! read more

Super fun!! I ride English and my husband has no experience, both of us enjoyed our time here. Emily was a genuine and amazing trail guide and she was very in tune with the whole group. Hunter (I believe is his name), was super awesome. His customer service was 10/10. Sweet folks doing good work and they don't buy their reviews either. They even gave some cool local recommendations. read more

I've been riding Western and English for decades. My son (13) my sister, and her son (12) are complete beginners. Picked this place because it was well reviewed and close to where we were staying in Blue Ridge. Was greeted by Helana when we arrived, who has a huge heart for animals and we clicked right away. I was careful to assess the condition of the horses and can say with confidence they are well-fed, healthy, and taken care of with no signs of over use or abuse from their head to their hooves. If there is any doubt, consider this--the owners horse is 27yrs old and going strong. The horses are safe for young and inexperienced riders, and the worst one did was stop and try to snack on leaves along the trail. There is a fair amount of up and downs, but that's just the terrain. Not one horse slipped even a step the whole hour. However if someone was very scared or little, I'm sure they would gladly do anything to make them comfortable, like walk through the pastures. They give lessons as well, so their horses are truly well-versed in inexperienced riders. If you have not been on a trail ride, know that the stable will get the horse completely ready for you to step into the saddle and go, and take care of everything once you step off. Hunter was the best guide I could ask for, and was safe and very attentive to all of us while seeming to not have a care in the world and talking about the area. He was here to in Blue Ridge and knows every back road and mountain trail,--including hidden waterfalls and places only locals know about, so ask for his recommendations. On top of their beautiful trail rides, there's a petting zoo area that you can hang out in as long as you want. They have goats and their babies, two donkeys, and when we were there, baby ducks! You can buy a bag of their feed for $1 and you will be very popular. But I didn't. I just went in and pet everybody, and they were happy to get some good back. As a trail guide myself and someone cautious around horses and over protective of their family, I would absolutely recommend this operation and will definitely be back if we are on the area again. read more

Nice trail ride and it was cool walking the horses through the creek... The staff was very sweet, but the organization was pretty poor and it took multiple times for the young lady to assign us to our horses, changing the horses multiple times... For a one hour ride, we ended up not starting the ride until 3:21pm and headed back and got back to the stable off the horse at 3:46.... Again, it was a nice ride, but very, very, very short, especially when you are paying to actually ride the horse for an hour. read more

The staff was amazing and friendly and really great with my autistic step daughter. We will be back for sure!

An amazing experience from the moment we stepped out of cars until we drove away. The staff, the horses, the owner and the gorgeous scenery are just phenomenal!! A girls weekend and an fun adventure to add to our memory books. The owner....AMAZING! The front staff...AMAZING! Hunter, our guide--- AMAZING!! His humor and love for what he does is evident in the stories he tells, the jokes he shares and he ensured we all had smiles on our faces the while time -- he's definitely a keeper! The horses...AMAZING!! The sweetest and gentlest creatures that made you smile and feel confident/comfortable on your ride!! Thank you for a wonderful time -- we'll be back for sure! Highly recommend this place! read more

Absolutely amazing trail ride on beautiful horses with friendly, knowledgeable guides. Caleb and Tyler were great guides that were patient and helpful. Great for beginners and experts alike. The trails were beautiful and the view at the top was well worth it. Parts of the trail were steep but the horses did an amazing job and handled the paths gracefully. Caleb did a great job guiding the group. Highly recommend this excursion when you're in the area. read more

While on vacay I took my 10 and 16yr old to experience horse back riding. According to my 10yr old this was the highlight of the trip. He was the youngest one of the group and was behind the instructor the whole time. They did the 1hr tour and he learned how to handle a horse. The ladies here were all so wonderful and welcoming and the price was excellent! Thank you for the memories. read more

We enjoyed a nice one hour trail ride with our guide Andrea. It was a very pretty trail through the woods with lots of varying terrain and creek crossings. The horses were calm and well mannered - easy for our novice group with kids. The zip line course was closed for maintenance, but we were only planning to ride horses anyhow. At $35 per rider, this place is a good value with nice scenery. Be sure to make a reservation. read more

We were very excited to go horseback riding while visiting Blue Ridge. Unfortunately, we started having symptoms of COVID in the middle of the night. I called to cancel and I am still being charged a $40 saddle fee (that my bank THANK GOD is in process of rejecting). I would understand in a non-COVID related situation but this is ridiculous. I am not paying a company $40 to ensure their employees don't get sick from me. I own a successful small business myself and I understand every dollar counts but common sense still allows me to provide the best customer service and lose a couple dollars here and there to allow a potential customer to feel respected. We are returning in a couple months with a large portion of our family but we will be taking our business to a different horseback riding provider in the area. The girl on the phone was also snarky when I initially booked the appointment and when I cancelled this morning. Sorry that my illness didn't provide symptoms within your 24 hour period of cancellation. Thanks for trying to charge me $40 to keep your staff healthy and unexposed to potential sickness. I live in the South myself and promise this is not the Southern Charm or Hospitality I am used to around here. read more

We had an amazing time! We received a warm welcome from Tristany and Lilliana. As they picked out the horses for us they gave us a background about each one. The barn and the horses are beautiful! Lilliana was an amazing trail guide. She was funny, interactive and great with the kids all while making sure we were safe and understood the uphill and downhill instructions. She made the trail ride a relaxed and entertaining experience! We couldn't have asked for a better time. The trail itself was gorgeous! Mountain views, creeks, streams-- all in a beautiful wooded area. Thank you for an amazing experience! read more

My husband and I decided to try this out in our last day here in the mountains. It was a little tricky to find but if you follow Waze you will find them. Both of us have not been horseback riding in quite awhile and they made this a great experience. The trail goes up in the woods and winds around. The leaves were changing and there were some good lookout points. I rode on Barbie and my husband rode on Mike. Both horses were fabulous. Our guide Caleb was great and made sure to check on everyone during the ride. We both had smiles the whole time! We highly recommend! read more

Absolutely hands down my FAVORITE trail riding experience by far!! I've personally have ridden several times thru a couple of other trail riding places in Blue Ridge in my past & they were just alright and even disappointing. But I finally found THE BEST trail riding place in Blue Ridge GA!! Cowboy hats off to Shannon, Jordan & Charlie aka: Lloyd, Jimmy & Teeter They are not only good people, but they treat their horses like their own kids and treated us w/ white glove excellent service!! My man & I took a 2 hour private sunset ride this evening and all 3 of them joined us by our request and it was so much fun, so much adventure w/ scenic views, lots of laughs & great conversations!! I'm glad we've made new wonderful friends at Blue Ridge Mountain Trail Rides I would Highly Recommend!!! read more

One of the best horse riding adventures I've ever been on! I couldn't believe the incredible Mountain Views! We went through creeks and learned fascinating information about the land.

Soooo this review is tricky. Our experience here started out SO incredibly terribly I expected to leave the worst review ever. But it improved so I added a star but read on for why. We traveled from out of state with our daughters who all ride back in texas and we discussed with the girl who took our reservation and said we should book a private so we could do a trail rode with plenty of trotting and cantering as our riding experience allows. When we showed up we were told that because of recent rain nobody could go on the mountain, okay, that's fine but then the girl said all we could do was a pasture ride in the hot sun down the driveway and around in the pasture and then the next pasture and back. Sounded awful but we had already driven out there and the girls wanted to ride so we said okay. Then we meet Hunter, who is going to be our trail guide. He complains that he's now running late and then he pushes and shoves the horses in such an ugly way that I almost called it all off right then and there. But we get on our horses and after a few more completely rude and inappropriate comments from hunter we start on our ride. When we get down the driveway into the first pasture we ask if this was a place we could do a little trotting here and Hunter says OH No we are NOT trotting this isn't a trotting trip. We said well we specifically booked a private ride with trotting and discussed it when we were booking it weeks ago and when we confirmed and just a few minutes ago we also reconfirmed we could at least trot and canter out here on our pasture ride. He argued with us and then said he would just shut up. It was so uncomfortable and awful for us and our girls I almost stopped again, but then I just kept going hoping it would be worth our time, and it got better and better. So Hunter maybe decided he was being a complete unprofessional a&$hole and changed his attitude and we had a beautiful fantastic ride with lots of trotting and cantering and creek riding and shade trees and Mountain Views and our girls loved it and we loved it. To his credit, when I attempted to tip Hunter at the end of the ride, he refused to accept it and said he had been a jerk and apologized. I accepted his apology BUT I cannot recommend this place without a HUGE caveat regarding the abysmal customer service skills. The ride was lovely. I can only imagine how fantastic the mountain ride would be. But the service at this place will be its downfall. Period. Unless they learn from their mistakes and educate customers upfront about what to expect and what is weather contingent (I was told this was "common sense" that after a few days of rain we couldn't do a trail ride. Anyhow, great potential and my kids at least had fun and learned a great lesson on how never to treat customers or run a business. read more

We had a great day at the BRTR. Shannon, our cowboy guide and his assistant/wife, we're so patient with my two young ones. We had a nice ride up and down the mountain with great views.

We had a great one hour ride with our guide Shannon. He first gave us simple easy to follow instructions, which was really good since it was my wife's first time riding. The trail was very scenic and serene. We even got comfortable enough that Shannon let us get the horses up to a trot. We didn't get to zip line because it was too wet out but we definitely plan on going back. read more

Other than our guides not wearing masks, this was one of my favorite activities my family did on our Blue Ridge trip. Staff was extremely friendly, informative, patient, and kind. The horses were beautiful & a joy to ride. The hour long ride is plenty & they take you on a beautiful scenic route. If you're going in the winter, bundle up! Do make sure you're ready to get your shoes muddy. I absolutely recommend this business. read more

We had the best time on this beautiful mountain trail ride. Our guide, Shannon, was great at explaining what to do and giving reminders.

Overall a great experience! read more

This was a great experience! We had an awesome tour guide who was great to talk to on the trail!

We came as a group of four adults and five kids (ranging from 4 years to 11 years of age). The three older kids were able to go horseback riding on the trail while the younger ones rode on ponies around the main area.

We can't recommend them enough! read more

This place is absolutely amazing!! I have been Horse Riding before, but here they take you down wonderful scenery. The ride is so peaceful as you make your way up a mountain. You can relax in perfect tranquility and take in the sights and sounds as you ride calm horses which I should add are very calm and behave very well around humans (I'm not a professional, so I apologize if I sound arrogant) It really makes you forget about the world you live in. It is stress free and the workers take good care of you. We had a wonderful young girl named Liliana who guided us through untouched beautiful landscape. We had a tremendous time taking in the views and riding the horses. Also not to mention they have Zip lining (though we didn't do this). I imagine it takes you through vast scapes that provide a Surreal aerial view of the land. If you are ever up in Blue Ridge Mountains Georgia, I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND doing this you will not be disappointed!!! We had an AMAZING TIME, I'm SURE you will too!! read more
