Great experience. All the ladies there were so helpful and friendly. Trails were beautiful even in the snow! Horses were well taken care of and perfect for the new to occasional rider. Safety was a priority. Top notch! Drove 2 ½ hours to ride in the winter and wasn’t disappointed! Provided nice boots and helmets. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful time with John our guide! It was our first time riding a horse and we were well educated on how to ride. My husband and I learned so much in our hour guided tour through wooded trails. I never knew one can guide a horse with a minimal amount of pressure by your feet! So I would go back and ride again and definitely would recommend this place. John was very nice and super informative. This a great place.

Had a great experience here. John and John are both very knowledgeable and their concern for rider safety is obvious. John the tour guide was like a friendly cowboy and his guidance through the tour was great. I’ve taken lessons sporadically before, however there were first time riders in my group and I liked that he tried to teach us the correct way to position ourselves and ride, even if the horses were well trained enough that they just did what trail horses do. Our group was intimate which was awesome(only 4 of us). The other John who handles the phone and check in is what I would call gruff; I can see why people would construe his words as rudeness(as noted in other reviews here and on trip advisor) To be honest we almost didn’t come because of something he had said when we called. However, upon talking to him a bit more and seeing him juggle answering questions on the phone while checking our tack and correcting our positioning(while we were mounting up before starting the trail) you can see why he can sound preoccupied on the phone and that it is not meant to be malicious in anyway. I appreciated all his tips and he is really nice to talk to, with a dry sense of humor I enjoyed:) They allow trotting if everyone in the group agrees which I loved. Like other users said, you will be required to wear their boots, helmet is optional for adults. Wear weather appropriate stuff(nov = gloves, hats, layers). I had my phone on a lanyard so I could feel more secure trying to take pictures but they will take a few pics for u at the end of the ride. Current prices were $ 36 for 1 hour trail ride cash, $ 39 credit. And don’t forget tip bc u WILL enjoy urself! :) They will tell you the address on the brochure will give you the wrong directions but we just googled Deer Path Riding Stables in google maps and it was fine. I would def come back for more!

Scenic ride, but the owner was very rude. He practically blamed me for his poorly trained horse. Better options available in the area for a more polite and professional experience.

Had a really great experience here. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The trail ride was very nice for beginners but they also did some jogging if the group agreed, which was nice for the more experienced riders. Overall the experience was great and we will definitely be back. :) They also have riding boots available at no cost in a wide variety of sizes. Sneakers are not going to cut it due to safety. Remember your boots if you have them.

My family and I took a trail ride here during a family reunion weekend. As an avid rider, I’m very conscious of equine safety for both horse and rider. The people running this establishment are top-notch. They provide helmets, boots, and detailed instruction on how to mount and dismount. They also pointed out the importance of keeping a safe distance between horses, how to property position your body while going up and down hills, as well as trotting. The horses seemed happy and well cared for, and the tack fit properly. We had riders of all ages and everyone loved it. We plan on going back next year when we’re in the area and I would highly recommend you give it a try, beginner or not!
