Onto the actual adventure, our guide was Ebony, and she was incredible, literally incredible. She was super informative right from the very beginning and super knowledgeable as well about the trail and just everything that we were seeing. It was fun to learn a little bit about her and a lot about just the nature preserve and all the little fun facts that we probably wouldn't have known otherwise. I hope that we can come back sometime soon. We were there to celebrate my dad's birthday and he had an amazing time as well. Thank you for helping make this experience super special and memorable and thank you for the top-tier Customer Service! And let me not forget to mention that everyone who works there that we encountered was super friendly. 10. Stars!

Lauren, our trail leader, was amazing--very knowledgeable, attentive, and clearly experienced with both the riders and the horses. My horse was INDIGO. But all the horses were calm and not temperamental at all, which made the ride even more enjoyable and relaxing. I chose the early morning ride, and it was absolutely perfect. I had removed my flannel beforehand and wore only a sleeveless tee, which worked out great as the sun started to come up. Parking was very convenient, and I especially loved that this location is only about 20 minutes from my home in Canyon Springs. The trails through the Santa Ana Riverbed were lovely--peaceful, scenic, and exactly what I was hoping for. I will definitely be doing this again. It was such a better experience and value than driving all the way into the Los Angeles area for a ride. This gave me exactly what I wanted: a serene, beautiful morning on horseback in nature. Thank you all for such a wonderful experience--and Lauren, you are amazing!

I can't say enough good things about my own experience here, as well as what I've witnessed in the youth who ride and train at the ranch. The training is hands-on, respectful, and rooted in real horsemanship--not shortcuts or quick fixes. It builds a strong foundation and truly teaches you how to work with the horse. I've gained so much from this place. I've seen huge growth in myself, not just in my riding, but in confidence, discipline, and overall mindset. This ranch is something special--and I'm so grateful to be a part of it. So if you're looking to take lessons or board your horse - this is definitely the place!

It's a great facility if you'd like to board your horses and you love the "ranch" aesthetic like we do! She does have horses here that she's rescued and were well trained to be used for horsemanship/riding lessons and my girls are next in line to start their training with her. I absolutely love it here. If you're looking to board here it is awesome and only minutes away from a trail to take your horses through!

I've witnessed them go after MANY boarders and be aggressive and harsh when conflict could have been avoided. We also struggled with keeping weight on our horses at this barn. They do not feed according to weight (as you MUST with horses) and it really took a negative toll on our two mares. Avoid this place if you can. Not all it's cracked up to be for sure. Protect your horses and keep them far away from here.

The gate will be closed, so you will have to get out of the car, open it yourself, drive in and close the gate. Park to the right (watch out for horse poop). You may or may not be greeted right away, depending if the group before you returns from their ride. Our guide was friendly enough. I expected her to give us a little more instruction since the groupon did indicate "lessons." Some horses were more obedient than others, so choose wisely haha. The ride itself was pleasant. I would've wanted to go up a nice trail or hill but we just went around the neighborhood streets. I recommend this only if you have a Groupon and if you're going with a great group of friends. This is definitely for beginners. If you're an expert at horseback riding, you'll probably get bored.
