There is very little scheduling here and no rigid trail riding - we strive to provide a personalized riding experience that's in accordance with your wishes. Horseback riding, canoeing, hiking, mountain biking, bird watching, fly fishing, ranching activities like cattle penning, and outdoor games. Your host and owner has two children, ages 3 and 5. We love kids, and have an excellent childcare program that is complimentary, and available from 9am to 4pm. Typical activities include animal tracking, orienteering, scavenger hunts, nature walks, fort building, arts and crafts, story times, or outdoor games, depending on the weather, group dynamics, and the ages of the children involved.
Children are welcome to horseback ride while under supervision of their parents.
If under 12 years of age, participation in an unescorted group will be at the discretion of the wrangler, based on the child's riding ability and maturity. Young children and those needing more practice can be lead around the barn area and home meadow when the opportunity arises. Otherwise, parents may enjoy riding time while their children are playing safely back at the ranch, under the guidance of our childcare provider. Due to our wilderness environment, children should remain under the supervision of their parents at all other times. The ranch offers savory, wholesome food, prepared from the freshest of seasonal ingredients and served with casual Siwash-style flare.
