ATV FAQ

  • Mud is seasonal – wetter months have significantly more mud on the trails than mid summer when it’s hot and dries up a lot of it.
  • Some guests prefer to stay clean – you are operating your own vehicle and can stay clean by going around muddier sections of the trail or passing thru it very slowly. You can also cover yourself in it like a pig in slop if that floats your boat. You decide!!

Horse Care & Safety

  • The safety and enjoyment of our guests as well as the care and well-being of our animals are our 1st priority!
  • An adult horse needs to consume approximately 2% of their body weight each day (roughly 25-60 pounds per day per horse for the horses in our herd).
  • Our horses’ high-quality grain is specially formulated just for the needs of our herd at a farm and facility in Kentucky and brought in regularly as well as their high quality hay from the Midwest. We feed two types of hay here at our facility: one is a high protein western alfalfa and the other is from a local hay farm that grows just for our animals.
  • Our animals have a team of veterinarians, equine chiropractors, farriers and staff that tend to their needs daily.
  • A horses’ regular care requires but isn’t limited to: regular hood trimming (pedi’s) and new shoes, teeth floating, check-ups
    chiropractic care, grain, hay and supplements, cleaning and maintaining their riding gear.
  • Interested in riding a specific horse? While we try to accommodate guests’ requests for specific horses, the horses have days off too. We have other several hundred acre pastures in the area where our horses are rotated out regularly.
