He immediately makes you feel at ease and spends time going over not just safety protocol but also shows you how to connect with the horses, develop an understanding. As a result the ride itself was absolutely fantastic. I learned a lot about technique and even more about the things to improve on. The ride itself was almost therapeutic. You learn how to be just in the moment. The sound of the horse's hooves on the earth is a memory that keeps coming back to me over and over again. If you are in saratoga, and you have an interest in horses, this is the place to be. In the last 15-18 years of annual or biannual trail rides, i have never gotten as much out of an experience as I did here.

The horses were calm, gentle, and absolutely beautiful. Cowboy Pete was an incredible guide, leading us through trails that were peaceful, scenic, and breathtaking. What stood out most was their patience and kindness -- they immediately put our teens at ease and made them feel comfortable and confident. Thanks to Colby & Cowboy Pete, their very first horseback riding experience became a joyful memory they'll cherish forever. Thank you both so much for such an amazing adventure and for creating a moment they will always remember!

Lessons are given and group trail rides and events are often planned! Whether you're the weekend warrior or dabble in the show world, all are welcomed. Lauren is also excellent with rehabbing and lay-off horses. I highly recommend SRF if you're looking for laid back yet knowledgeable people.

The focus of the barn is developing safe riding skills and having fun. It's a relaxed atmosphere where we treated like part of a family. They have a team approach to learning, as there are usually two or more trainers in the barn when lessons are taking place. We also really like that we are learning how to take care of the horses, muck the stalls, take care of the equipment etc. The total experience is inclusive of care and respect for the horses as well as progress of the student.

This was our first time here, and it came highly recommended by friends. The staff was kind, welcoming, and helpful. There are many different room options--some facing the Hudson River, some with porches--and our room was a small, cozy cabin. It was clean, the mattress was soft, and although the bathroom only had a shower, it suited us fine. This week there were many families, and most of the activities were geared toward children. The only activity with an extra charge was horseback riding; everything else, including the petting zoo, kayaking, rope climbing, biking, and more, was free. My wife and I spent most of our time enjoying the amazing scenery and relaxing on the chairs overlooking the Hudson. Three meals a day were provided, and the food was plentiful, varied, and very good. There was also a minyan three times a day, and the manager gave a short dvar Torah after Shacharis and Mincha, which added a meaningful touch. We had an amazing time and highly recommend visiting 1000 Acres Ranch.

I have been going to 1000 Acres now for around 15 years! The place used to be so amazing! But I…read morehave to say my recent visit (Thursday, September 3, 2026 thru Sunday, September 6, 2026) was LOUSY!!! Granted our group has been getting smaller and smaller in the past three years (due to them jacking the prices up), but we always try to make the best of things. I had noticed ahead of time, that the website now lists the place as "Kosher" but their image on the "Food" section showed Ribeye steak, and other amazing looking food. that was NOT the case! they had gone back to ALL meals being "buffet style" which to me is the lazy way out of preparing quality meals. In years past, they also went buffet style but we kept complaining and the last two years they actually had legit menu's with amazing food (although they NEVER took into consideration my friends that were diabetic!). We were told due to the new Kosher meals, that we also could NOT order any pork (so no breakfast sausages or bacon with your meal!) Breakfast and Lunch we were told for Kosher were dairy based? and dinner they would serve some form of beef, but NEVER did I see a choice for a nice ribeye like on their website! The one thing that seemed nice when I first arrived was the newly expanded Office area. they blew out the back wall, so that the office goes clear into the bar area, so walking in and seeing the office desk to the right, and seating area on the left, I honestly felt like I was in some fancy resort! But that was the extent of the "resort" feel. About 3 or 4 years ago, the very run down Duplex units (four duplexes with rooms for two parties in each) were torn down and new Duplexes were build from the foundation up. But that too was when they just about TRIPLED their price for the stay (and that was for ANY room, not just the new duplexes) we were also told that the cabins were going to be next, but they never upgraded those. Also on this most recent stay, I found out that most people in our party (we had about 13 people) the TV's were not working at all (no signal?) I was surprised that my room in Deer Leap did in fact have a functional TV as well as in the bar! So, half of the place was without TV. The bar, was pretty much EMPTY of any type of alcohol so we had a very limited selection (and sadly this is a place they normally could make a lot of extra money!) We also found out that the Jewish group there had an event going on in the dining room and they even removed some of the alcohol from the BAR to be used exclusively for the jewish group in the dining hall! So, it seriously seemes that this place is now catering exclusively for the Jewish community!!! THE PAVILION: we always enjoyed spending time in the pavillion too while we were there. But it was blocked off and decorated again exclusively for the Jewish group for their religious services!!! Had I known of all this nonsense, I would have saved my money and gone to Ridin Hy which is supposedly only 30 minutes down the road! OH and one more vital thing: some of those in our group were told that we were the LAST group to go there, as they were filing BANKRUPCY!!!
