This year I took my 40th birthday by the reins and ventured out to Georgia Frontiers with the…read morefamily for an hour trail ride in the great outdoors! It's been a while since I've been on a horse and this was the first ride for my kiddo. Before I forget to mention the barn is equipped with helmets if you would like one which is so awesome! After filling out the paperwork they give a brief tutorial before your ride on how to stop/start/ guide the horse to do what you want which was really helpful. The horses were so sweet and gentle my daughter rode Simon, I rode Rusty, and my husband got Bella. The trail was great a little narrow at times between trees but the horses definitely kept us on track and going smoothly. My husband ended up getting the sweetest horse who loved to stop every couple of minutes for snacks so every time we looked back he was a bit behind us lol! It made for a great moment that we will remember and laugh about for years to come! Our guide was very knowledgeable and great with my daughter who despite being nervous beforehand rode like she had been riding her whole life! Proud mama moment for sure!! Their barn cat greeted us when we got back and was all purrs & brushing up against our legs such a little cutie (check out the picture). We got to meet all of the other horses and fed our horses a treat in their buckets after the ride! We had a fantastic time and we really enjoyed the horses and the beautiful scenery! If you love horses whether you're a beginner or just want a great spot to get back in the saddle check this place out for sure! It's a blast!!

Update to my prior review from July 22... So my experience at SOOFA Ranch was generally positive;…read morehowever upon reviewing photos of other riders who attended the ranch, I noticed some differences in their ride compared to ours. While some riders seemed to enjoy an open road and easier navigation, my families ride took place in a wood area. In hindsight, this terrain was not ideal for all participants as it involved constant walking over rocks, branches and muddy trails. Though I paid $85 per person, I'm uncertain if I received the full experience advertised by the ranch, especially when comparing it to what others have shared about their rides. Additionally, we were advised not to b ring our cell phones along to prevent losing them on the trail, resulting in the disappointment of not having any photos of our horseback riding experience. While I personally had a great time, reflecting on the discrepancies between our ride and what seems to be advertised for other guest has left me unsure about recommending this ranch to others. However, its important to note that this review is solely on my own experience and others may have different perspectives. The one photo provided I took prior to us leaving out on the trail I then left my phone to avoid losing as I was directed.

Being that I've rode horses before I was…read moreprepared to have a pretty unpredictable experience because you just never know how things will go with animals but Grace was so well trained. Not only did she pick up on me and the commands I was quickly taught but she also listened to Mr. Daryl's commands while he rode on another horse in front of us. The entire experience was super relaxing and therapeutic. I recommend it to anyone looking for a breath of fresh air!

Came here for a Yelp Elite event...it was so fun!!!…read more Holiday Road: What a unique experience! I loved every second of it. This farm took a lot of time to decorate and we loved the different holidays that they catered to as well (Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and Christmas). There are so many different holiday songs playing on the farm at the same time, but the sounds don't collide. It was pretty impressive that they could achieve that. Service: The bartender was really patient and made delicious drinks. The staff that helps you stay on track during the tour were friendly and even curious about your opinions along the way. We didn't get a chance to try the food trucks, but they looked pretty good from what we saw. Would I recommend? Absolutely! Will I be back? Maybe, it's just a bit far.

What a great quick trip! We tried to cram in a lot in a 3 day/2 night stay…read more We started with the swin cars - they emwrrr lots of fun and our guide, Kaitlyn, was really great. You could tell she knew her stuff but didn't make you feel dumb for asking questions... or for help. It was the perfect start to our stay! We did the crazy squirrel ropes course and it was fun.., my oldest got scared and would not continue and they were awesome at helping her transition off. She walked away still interested in doing ropes in the future. The horseback riding was great too - make sure to opt for the 2 hours, totally worth it. Ok, so the next part is 100% my fault - we over slept and had to cancel our zip lining experience. We were there during spring break and everything was booked so it just wasn't going to happen. So this is my advice - don't overbook yourself! Or don't put the biggest attraction for your group on the day you leave! Food - so, we drove down from East of Atlanta and weren't familiar with the area. There isn't anything close! And what is close is closed on random days! Check the listings. West Georgia campus isn't far away and there are lots of options there. We had a combination of breakfast, lunch and dinner there- the food is great! Breakfast was enough to fill you up for the day and enough options for the whole family. Lunch is HUGE! You can easily split the sandwich or chicken tenders. We had the spring break family dinner and it was great- cheese burgers- but I will try their gourmet dinner next time. The grounds are expansive and beautiful ! So you have lots to do and explore. So make sure to build in some downtime to walk/hike around. One thing I was surprised about is that the cabin on the ridge (not sure about others) had a full size kitchen but no plates, utensils or pans. So pack them if you plan to bring in your own food.

I recently switched boarding my horse to a new place. Had been here for over a year. While…read morenothing seriously wrong, was not happy with the constant turn over of employees (trish was the best!!!!) sanitary conditions of the barn, lack of training equipment (jumps, barrels etc) and while turnouts were daily, depending on weather, pastures were not up to snuff for grazing horses. Owners were absentee, with their young daughter as barn manager, who was rarely around. Overall was not terrible, but for amount of board charged was expecting more care and attention to the horses and owners.

This stable is great! I came here looking for better instruction in Eventing and I got just what I…read moreneeded. The stable is clean and organized. Both trainers have their own scheduling board so the students can see which horse they are riding. So far every time I have come my trainer has been on time and was already in the barn by the time I came. The horses there are well-trained and gentle. The facilities there are very nice. My lessons have also been very good as well. Each lesson I rode the full duration and was not shorted at all. My only complaint is that there is no dressage arena(or arena emptied of jumps). This means that working on dressage can be difficult since you can't work in the full size of a dressage arena. There are also no letters so for those who are just learning dressage this can make things more difficult.
