Questions parents ask

How much do party rides cost?

$400 plus tax for up to 3 hours within 30 miles of our farm. Weekday bookings get 20% off. Events farther out have a travel fee, and extra staff for lines or side-walking is $20 per hour each.

How many kids can ride, and for how long?

One horse can give about 10–20 rides an hour, each 2–5 minutes long. Tell us the riders' ages so we bring the right size horse and saddle.

What do we need at our house or venue?

A grass or dirt path, ideally about 200 feet with few sharp turns, a 10 × 25 ft spot to set up, and firm parking for our truck and trailer. We can't ride on rock or pavement.

What should riders wear?

Closed-toe shoes. We provide the helmets. Every rider, and any parent who walks alongside, needs a signed activity waiver.

Are there age or weight limits?

Some horse and saddle combinations have rider weight limits: Safety comes first, so we always bring the safest horse for the job.

What if the weather turns bad?

If there's lightning, a tornado, hail or high winds during your event time, we cancel and refund you.
