Enjoyed the most: The relaxing atomphere and friendly people.

Bothered you: Nothing at all!

Comments: This was our 17th wedding anniversary. We had no idea of what to expect and this was the best vacation or trip we have ever taken in our 17 years together. If you love horses, whether you ride or not, you have got to experience this at least once. We turned the cell phones off and drifted into a stress-free world and we didn't want to leave!

Enjoyed the most: Great German food! And freedom of riding unguided.

Bothered you: No complaints with the ranch!

Enjoyed the most: Being able to ride a variety of horses and the food was wonderful!

Bothered you: The flies but that goes along with horses...

Enjoyed the most: We did a larger ride in a park, very fun!! I didn't prepare one meal for my family in a complete week, it has been a long time I didn't do that!!!! I had time to read and enjoy the nature..

Bothered you: Nothing!!

Comments: We really had a great time!!  Thanks to all the guests at the ranch, they were really kind people.

Enjoyed the most: This place is so enjoyable. The area and accommodations were excellent. The food was delicious--consistently the best I've ever had on vacation. The staff was very friendly and personable. I liked the quiet atmosphere, the availability to do as much as I wanted, or as little. The flexible riding program was just right for me. I am not an experienced rider, but I liked the freedom. The horses were so friendly you could walk all around the pasture and have them come right up to you. I am sending off a personal letter of appreciation to the ranch and its staff to tell them what a marvelous time I had. Thank you for taking care of all the details.

Bothered you: Not one thing!! No complaints!

Comments: I thought that the Hidden Trails brochure gave me a complete picture of all the vacation destinations I was thinking about. Everything that was said about the ranch was true and on the money. Fantastic place.  I thought the whole experience was the most wonderful vacation I have ever taken.  This was a "ME" vacation--to do just what I've always wanted to do. Hidden Trails, and their partner in Georgia gave me that chance. 

Enjoyed the most: The horse I rode and the trail guide with whom I rode all week.

Bothered you: The barn manger never smiled. I felt as though I was annoying her!

Enjoyed the most: Hands-on activity with the horses, leading and tacking up and unguided riding...nice weather...great horses..especially since I brought my 10-year old nephew, a first time rider. He learned how to ride and was ecstatic..this experience will last him a lifetime!!

Bothered you: The trails were kind of circular loops and shorter, but I guess that is perfect for the non-guided riding...

Comments: This particular trip was great!! Everything was really peaceful...wish I could have stayed longer!!

Enjoyed the most: The whole trip was great

Bothered you: Nothing about the ranch.

Enjoyed the most: Definately the food and the riding!

Bothered you: Nothing, no complaints!

Comments: Thanks so much for hooking me up with this ranch, I had a wonderful time! This was the most wonderful holiday I have ever had in my life! The meals are second to none, the hosts are terrific, the place is gorgeous!!! I took my own saddle, so no worries on their tack. I just had the best time, ever! This exceeded my expectations!

Enjoyed the most: The staff were great, the horses were super, the accomodations and food, all excellent!

Bothered you: Leaving!!

Comments: Best trip I ever took!  Recommend it highly!

Enjoyed the most: There was so much we enjoyed but the best was you did not need a guide to ride once you proved you were able to ride safely.

Bothered you: Only that we had to leave so soon!

Comments: We had such an amazing time in Georgia.  Everyone was very friendly.  We ended up purchasing a baby mule they had for sale.  We will be going back!!

Enjoyed the most: the horses, themselves, beautiful and forward pintos, the sheer number around us, 110 horses, with 10 youngs.

Bothered you: same trails all the time

Enjoyed the most: Horseback riding and learning about care of the animals and tack

Bothered you: Rain and mud most of the 8 days I was there.

Enjoyed the most: The horses, weather, food, staff and accomodations were all wonderful. No bugs while riding was a pleasant change. I don't have a single complaint.

Bothered you: Having to leave!!!

Enjoyed the most

Being able to go out on a "self-guided" ride was an excellent bonus-trails were very well maintained-the horses were generally, well suited to the riders & plentiful-the ranches food was outstanding, plentiful & lots of variety-the hospitality of all the employees in the service/food area of the ranch house was outstanding-loved that we ALL dinned together daily-The "singing" cowboy (aka: office manager) was a humorous addition & very helpful with our inquiries/concerns.

Bothered you

Not being able to reserve "our" horses/saddles the day before OR pre-reserve the horses/saddles for the whole week for "our" self-guided rides-waiting in line to request "our" horses, only to find out, "our" horses were given to someone else-having to wait for everyone else to finish tacking/grooming/etc..even though we were going out on a self-guided ride-some of the rules were miscommunicated/inconsistent given by some guides-a couple of the guides did NOT seem to be "into" their guests/service

Enjoyed the most
this was the total package: everything was good, food, company, accommodations, guides, horses, and the location.

Bothered you
There was a large proportion of very beginner riders, and not enough opportunity for a better rider to ride to their level. As we went out in groups, we were stuck several times with riders only able to walk. We could ride by ourselves, but still were limited as to gait.

This trip was exactely what I needed to get back into riding again. It also helped me reconnect with my daughter. I would recommend it to anyone. In fact I have told several friends already and we are all talking about arranging another trip.
