We came yesterday and I genuinely can't stop thinking about how special it was…read more 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!

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

My husband, my son and I took the 2 hour Valley River Ride. My son and I have never been on a horse before and Jess made me feel so comfortable riding with her instructions and passion that I didn't feel nervous at all. It seemed like the horses were perfectly matched with each of our personalities as well. The prices are fair, the horses are well taken care of and trained, the staff are awesome and it was just an all around great experience. It was a beautiful ride and if we are in the area again I will definitely use Cowgirl Up Stables again.

It's mid-October so the pricing wasn't peak pricing and at $40/person. My GPS glitched and turned us around a couple times so we made it just in time. We were given the safety briefing after checking in. Then we got our gear and got on the bus to get to the river. Our small group of 5 got to raft with James. He was phenomenal! James is so much like my husband's family where he can joke with a straight face and you don't know if it's a joke or not. James did an amazing job of guiding us and leading us down the Ocoee. Several in our group had never been whitewater rafting before. Everyone had a great time! It was truly amazing. Thank you so much for memories we won't ever forget!

Do not board at this facility. My horse arrived at this facility 11/1/2022. By 11/3/2022, my horse…read morewas severely injured with a career ending injury. My horse came directly off the track to this facility. She was anxious as she just moved across the country and was in a new place. She was turned out in their quarantine lot that was a small but safe area with white vinyl fencing, and she was doing well all things considered. I had requested to one of the managers to please let her stay in the quarantine lot to decompress for a couple of days until I could get her feet done. I figured this would not turn into an issue as a typical quarantine period when bringing in new horses is at least 2 weeks, and this manager assured me she would make sure she stayed put. I also requested that I be included with introducing her to a pasture as she has never been turned out in a pasture before with wire fencing, which is all this property has besides 1 or 2 pastures that have different fencing. The next morning, not even 12 hours later, I received a phone call stating that my horse had been turned out with a herd, against my wishes, and had gone through multiple fences and sustained a large laceration to her leg. At the time, it appeared to be just a laceration which would heal with time. But a year later, I am still receiving veterinary care due to bone involvement and my horse is still lame, with a poor prognosis. This is not the only major injury a horse sustained in my very short time at this facility. Another horse shattered her cannon bone due to her being turned with a horse she was known to not get along with, per the barn owner's instructions. Keep in mind, I was at this boarding facility for less than 2 months. In addition to multiple major ending injuries, the quality of care is very poor. The horses are often lacking hay and water even in the winter months. I was always the one providing hay and water to my own horse when I was paying for her to be cared for. Barn staff will skip feedings if the farm equipment fails and they have to walk to the upper pastures to feed. Gates to pastures are often left unlatched. Many of the horses are underweight and unhealthy. Water buckets and troughs rarely get cleaned out, resulting in algae and nasty black water they expect the horses to drink. Horses also are often getting moved around into various pastures depending on the day, which is just asking for more accidents to happen. The facility is in a flood zone, resulting in very wet conditions. A majority of the horses here deal with hoof abscesses and lameness due to the fact their feet can never dry out. Lastly, management talks very poorly about their boarders. As a horse owner, I know these boarders just want quality care for their horses and are getting upset that they are not receiving said care. The barn owner, her mother, and various management would often complain and do things against owners wishes. They complain when owners request round bales be put in the pastures because their horses are hungry and there is not food in the pastures. They complain when owners are upset that their horses are shivering because they are wet and cold and not being blanketed appropriately. They do not like their boarders and make it very clear to those around them. I have given them over a year to make things right with me which they have been unable to do. They keep beating around the bush and will not just own up and take responsibility. Do not come here if you care about your horses.
