It was so cute. The staff were so great with the kids (aged 4-10ish) and safety was a priority. I didn't get a chance to ride any of the horses, but I'd honestly like to come back and do a one time ride at some point. I haven't ridden a horse since I was a teenager, and being around them made me really happy. Such a fun spot and they have a great mission of equine therapy.

This sport clearly requires tremendous trust and goodwill between the vaulters and the horse. Watching my child participate in horse vaulting has been an incredibly rewarding experience. Not only has she developed physical strength and agility, but she has also learned important life skills such as communication, discipline, and perseverance. I am grateful for the opportunity to witness this unique and exciting sport, and I am proud to be a part of a community that values sportsmanship and teamwork. Staff--They are all wonderful. They all equally invested in helping my child grow and develop the skills that she needs to be great. I can't say enough good things about the people, horses, and the Barn. We always look forward to being there.

If you are looking to start taking riding lessons in the hunter, jumper, or polo disciplines this is without a doubt the best barn in West Michigan. You can board your horse here or take lessons on some of the amazing Meadowview horses. No matter what your level of experience, Meadowview can help you achieve any riding, training and showing goals. From my first pony ride to becoming a national champion, Cathy, Hillary and the whole team at Meadowview have been there every step of the way. I trust them entirely to give my horses the best care possible. They exemplify professionalism and horsemanship and I am honored to be one of their most successful students. Hillary herself is an extraordinary rider whom I admire greatly. I highly recommend attending a summer polo match or Lake Effects Horse Show. It's an amazing opportunity to watch horses and riders perform! The team at Meadowview makes riding fun for any level. Thanks Meadowview, for all that you do!

A+++++ Our guided…read morehorse ride at Wild West Ranch was the highlight of our Saugatuck vacation. Lisa was our guide and she was fantastic! She's so funny and a great storyteller. She completely enthralled our group of two adults and two teens. The ride was so peaceful. We booked the first slot and the horses were alert and ready to work. My beautiful horse, Winter, listened well and took very good care of me. Even though my guys liked their horses, they were so jealous that I got to ride her. It's cash only and please tip your guide. She/he will make or break your experience. The prices are very affordable. You won't regret booking Wild West Ranch. Fun tip: if you get Lisa, tell her you read great reviews about her on Yelp. I research everything and that was the first thing I told her. She was totally surprised. Have a great time.

We have camped at the Double R Ranch 6 times now. Twice as a couples weekend, three times with our…read moreyoung kids and once as an extended family getaway. We have always stayed in an RV. We absolutely LOVE it! Our most recent trip was for a week surrounding the 4th of July. The majority of this review will be based on this trip. The tubing is excellent and there are numerous places to put in and an obvious landing to get out. We bring our own tubes. The trail guides have been wonderful with young children and helping them feel confident on horse back. The trails are scenic and we enjoyed seeing turkey's and more dragon flies than I have ever seen before. The on-site bike trails are minimally groomed (some downed logs,etc across the path - although it did storm twice while we were there) but easily passable. One trail is a little boys dream with jumps, short steep hills and fast turns. I can still hear him yelling "This is totally AWESOME" as he raced around the loop. If you want well groomed trails, there is an entrance to White's Bridge Trail near the entrance to the camp ground. We swam in the pool (very clean considering the number of people using it), played baseball, badminton, volleyball and frisbee in the giant open field behind the camp store. We enjoyed a free hot dog roast, kids watermelon eating contest and fireworks provided by the campground. The kids enjoyed the recently updated playground and basketball courts too. Some people talked about the bathrooms getting dirty. First, there are more than one set of bathrooms and they are building more now. I think the ones attached to the pool probably do get dirty considering the level of usage. This would be true of any campground. Admittedly, we did not use the showers or bathrooms often because we were in an RV. The items in the camp store are mostly very well priced. A few things are pricey but other things are very inexpensive - it balances out very well. The food at the clubhouse was tasty, the employees were always courteous and helpful. The kids loved taking a break with ice cream, foozeball, and old fashioned video games (arcade style Atari games). This is a very reasonably priced, family owned facility. It may not be as pristine as some corporate campgrounds but it also isn't priced like a corporate camp ground would be. The sites are various sizes, relatively level and most are nicely shaded. To the person complaining about being charged extra for spending extra time on the river with the rented canoes -really?! If you rent the canoe for a three hour trip but keep the canoe for six hours, you have taken someone else's canoe rental. The manager was right to ask for a larger rental fee! I know they are lenient with canoe retrieval times so if it was noticed that you kept the canoes for extra time, you WERE taking advantage. Shame on you for giving them a poor review for calling you out on your selfish behavior! Ultimately, this is a family friendly campground that we will continue to visit each year. Thank you Double R for some great memories!
