Also, this place has some of the most beautiful horses I have ever seen as well. this ranch is very beginner friendly as well. this was probably my third time in my life riding on a horse. Even though, I had fallen off the horse (Found out later I cracked my rib, but was totally badass to tell everyone I feel off a horse and broke a rib lol) Lucas is one of the most patient and friendliest person ever too and really helped me with getting back on the horse too because I was ready to just walk back. will defiantly be going back!! 10 *s

Just a few comments on the local Mojave area around Edwards, not on this specifically posted…read more(business)location. Although the posted commentary of the first reviewer certainly sounds typical, I'd somewhat question the comment about hot nights in the Mojave. My personal experience has been that typically, about 4 PM every day, a strong wind comes up across the Mojave and temps usually can drop over 50 degrees from day to night. North of Edwards, in the eastern reaches of California City, there used to be (not sure if still there) a long dirt road-trail across the desert, that one might drive, knowing that you were traversing the old and famous 20 mule-team Borax Trail, from Death Valley to the railhead at Mojave. (See: http://home.earthlink.net/~cyberkiwi/desertexploration/trborax.htm) East of Edwards, there is an area famous for Hot-Air Ballooning. South of Edwards, east of Lancaster, off a desert road, a hillside encropment, host an open mine entrance, with old tracks and an unsafe old wooden ladder, that descends into the almost vertical depths of the old mine, only to find the bottom-of-the-shaft filled with water. A friend once slowly descended into the water, to find a horizontal water-filled shaft with air-pockets under the roof. (Not recommended!) If you can access Edwards itself, South Edwards may yet have traces of the old Edwards Sled-Track, on which the Astronauts rode a rocket-sled across the desert, to experience G-forces. The track was moved to Holloman AB, New Mexico years ago. Along the south rim of Rogers Dry Lake Bed, are the old remaining buildings and roads of the original Edwards, nee Muroc Army Air Station, made famous in air-flight history, with famous names like Chuck Yeager, X-1 rocket ship and more. Just walking through this area, when the wind blows, one can almost feel the winds of history! And finally (here), there is the famous Edwards Rocket Base, on the ridge overlooking Rogers Dry Lake, somewhat south-east of Edwards. Here is a website (link) to another website with a quote that 'paints-a-magnificent-picture', of the time-and-place of Rocket Base in history, as told in the Foreword to an online Hollywood Documentary screenplay. Enjoy! http://www.fiwd.org/Reality.htm

They were extremely well mannered and easy to ride. James took us on a very beautiful trail and took many really nice pictures of us.

They were happy, well-fed with fresh hay and they ate fresh plants along the trail. The ranch itself is very nice and beautifully made and it's also very clean for a ranch.

He also surprised us with some cookies during a break in the ride. He has a vast amount of knowledge of the local area, but that is dwarfed by his knowledge and skill with his horses.

We also followed up with an archery session, and James is just as patient an archery instructor as he is a riding instructor, giving us tips on proper stance and handling of the bows. It was a great experience, and I would definitely like to plan another visit!

We just had our daughter's 5 year old birthday this past weekend at the ranch. Best idea ever. I…read morefound out about this place because my good friend had her daughter's birthday party here and my girls loved it. A year later they still remembered the party including the horses they rode and pet--Gidget and Traveler. So when it came time to find a spot for my little one's birthday, this place was the first one to come to mind. I could not be happier about the experience we had. Jenna and her family were so accommodating and so very easy to work with. I felt like she was an old friend. They try their best to make sure everyone has a great experience--including the host. Once you've got everything set up the way you want (food, decorations, etc), you just let them run it and they make the activities flow smoothly. I was able to roam around and mingle with guests and watch my kids ride horses. Every single one of my guests--children and adults--had a wonderful time. Many people commented on how peaceful and relaxed they felt there. Having no cell service really helped because nobody was distracted by their phone. Everyone was enjoying the moment and time with their kids. I loved the open, outdoor, natural space with the beautiful and gentle horses. There were also goats, chickens and pigs. Gold panning, "pin" the tail on a real donkey, painting a real horse, an open barn area where other horses are available to visit and pet. Our family made the trek up from the Sherman Oaks area and our guests came from even further away. They all thought it was worth the drive. I highly recommend!

My party was 3 hours long and the children were occupied and enjoying themselves the entire time. Not only did the kids have a good time, all the adults commented on what a relaxing atmosphere the ranch was. We are now planning an "adult only day".
