at she has meticulously crafted to be every horse girl’s dream. Sheep, donkeys, miniature horses, dogs, wild birds, and chickens - all of whom are friendly and well loved - call this place home. The guesthouse is sparkling clean and comfortable, stocked with all the necessities from sunscreen to blow dryers to a/c. And the horses are not your typical pokey trail horses - they all have fabulous personalities and sweet dispositions, and made even the most experienced riders in our group feel like real cowboys. Our hosts, Pam and Bob, were so warm and hospitable, and they kept us well-fed and entertained all weekend. The property will take your breathe away, it is a true hidden gem. Thank you Pam and Bob for everything!!!
