Everything was great. All the meals were good. The people that work there are great people. Would…read morelove to go back again

I have visited this ranch 3 times, and I know I will continue to visit at least once annually. I…read morehave tried three different times of year ~ Fall Color Ride Weekend, Memorial Day Weekend, and now this weekend, Super Summer Deal (the weekend before Labor Day holiday weekend) and each visit has been fantastic. I don't think any one is better than the other, but the nice weather in August is great! Both the Memorial Day weekend and Fall color ride had very cold days, but as long as you prepare for rain, wind and possible snow, those trips are great, too. I love coming here, and especially love coming alone. First, you get to do the rides you want, nap when you want, get up when you want and meet a ton of nice people. People who do this type of vacation are nice people, period. You have all types of visitors ~ families, dads and daughters, groups of women, solo traveling men and women, mom's with kids, etc. Everyone is welcome here. The food is great, and for picky eaters or folks with dietary restrictions, they are very accommodating and feed you just as well as everyone else. Beef or pork is common in most meals, but being a non-red meat eater, they have fed me chicken and fish on my trips here with no problem. Since my first visit, the phones actually work a bit better and the wifi is a bit better....kinda good, kinda bad. Good for sending pictures to your jealous friends and family, but bad for those of us who can't help but look at work email.... Even if you have never ridden a horse, you will enjoy your experience. They take out several groups each time, allowing you to ride with a group at your same level - beginner, intermediate, advanced or even adults who just don't want to trot or lope. I definitely recommend visiting the Hunewill family, and experiencing their ranch.

TLDR: Disappointing Experience - Unengaged and Unhelpful Wrangler…read more We were optimistic about our 4 PM Red Mountain ride, but unfortunately, our wrangler fell far short of expectations and made for an uncomfortable, even stressful, experience. From the start, she seemed impatient and uninterested--perhaps because we were the last group of the day. Our group of four included two children; I clarified that we were all beginners. Despite that, my nine-year-old daughter was assigned Dino, a horse someone in the previous group had asked, "Dino is not going out again today, is he?" He consistently misbehaved and was difficult to control for inexperienced riders. Rather than explaining how to handle Dino or offering coaching to my daughter, the wrangler simply took the lead rope away from her, making my daughter feel embarrassed and even more unsure of herself. The most concerning incident happened just ten minutes into the ride. The last horse broke away and bolted onto a busy road. Instead of communicating clearly and giving instructions, the wrangler immediately abandoned our group to chase the runaway horse, leaving the entire group confused and unsupervised as our horses started to follow the chaos toward the road. I had to yell instructions to my daughters myself to keep them safe, as the wrangler provided no guidance or reassurance in what could have become a dangerous situation. Throughout the ride, the wrangler maintained an unfriendly, silent demeanor. She rarely checked on us and barked unclear instructions from the front of the line, which were nearly impossible to hear. When my daughter started to slide sideways on her saddle, the wrangler never stopped to see if the stirrups needed adjusting, simply shouting at us instead. After the horse bolted, I chose to ride at the rear to ensure my daughters were okay and give them basic instructions, which the wrangler should have provided. When Dino became aggressive and tried to bite my horse, the wrangler moved my daughter to the back of the line. Because of Dino's nature, she constantly lagged far behind. Despite the risk of being separated or left unattended on rocky trails, the wrangler barely stopped or looked back to check on her. Finally, one of the main draws of a guided ride is supposed to be the scenery and the guide's insights. Our wrangler gave us no information and didn't once stop to highlight the landscape or share anything about the area. Even the other group members looked frustrated by her lack of engagement and support. I have been on numerous guided horseback rides over the years, and this was hands down the worst guiding I've ever experienced. The wrangler was inattentive, unhelpful, and uninterested, risking our safety, comfort, and enjoyment. Based on our guide, I cannot recommend this experience. .

My wife and I just had a great trail ride with Kareem and Elllie..They were amazing guides... I was…read morereally excited that it was more than just a trail ride in that we had water crossings and uphill and downhill with a lot of varying terrain... Also got to see deer on the way... highly recommend going and taking a ride with them
