We stayed at Cedars on the Brazos Bed and breakfast - our favorite and it was great to have them right there on the property. We also saw several deer. We highly recommend Manna Ranch!

Your PEOPLE: What are your heights and weights and how many times have each of you ridden a horse before? ME: 5'2 120 5'6 230 4-6 times YOUR PEOPLE: Ok. The location is 100 Equestrian Drive, Southlake, Texas 76092 and I need you there by 5:45 pm. Kambry will call you later and get your cc# for the reservation.thanks, Jeff NO ONE EVER CALLED FOR CREDIT CARD INFO. SATURDAY EVENING at 7pm less than 24 hours before the ride I get this message Hey Larry. There was a miscommunication between myself and Jeff. The ride tomorrow is unfortunately fully booked. My name is Kambry with Widowmaker Trail Rides. The lady who usually sets people up for rides is out so things are all out of whack. I RESPONDED That is unacceptable. I have a guest coming in from out of town. So you need to do something. Something earlier or something. I planned this and you gave me confirmation. Kambry then said Who gave you confirmation? We only confirm rides when we receive a deposit I then said Let's not do that. YOUR PEOPLE: I have 2 spots Sunday from 6-8 pm ME:Great I'll take them.

Kambry will call you later and get your cc# for the reservation.thanks, Jeff Kambry then says Let me talk to Jeff. Hang tight. At 8:13pm Jeff says Larry, My partner David can take you two tomorrow. He will call you shortly. My ride filled up before Kambry could call you but she should have called yesterday and told you immediately. Jeff I asked Okay does the time change? Jeff said I'm not sure but he will call you shortly and you can work that out. NO ONE CALLED. SO AT 9:34 I said It's 9:30 I haven't heard from anyone. That's not a good look Jeff responded This ride isn't going to work. Do whatever it was that you were planning to do tomorrow before you called yesterday last minute to try and schedule a ride with us this weekend. I read your text with Kambry as well as your text above and it would not be a good fit. So I guess people that call last minute get lies. I responded I will definitely include this in my yelp review. It's obvious you don't keep your word. Pitiful I had someone coming in town for this ride. DO NOT USE THEM. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE.

She is very helpful, giving pointers whenever I need help and often rides with me in the mornings. I love training under her. Not only does she teach you how to ride but also why we ride the way we do and how it effects the horse. There has been many times over the years where I have been on my horse having a difficult time and she has patiently sat on the rail and coached me through it. She always makes sure that each rider and horse leave the arena on a good note. There are no short-cuts at her barn, everything we do is done the right way and the safe way.

I want to rate the Wildcatter about a 3.7 out of 5…read more Our first visit was over New Year's weekend in 2022. That Saturday the temperature dropped about 40 degrees and the wind starting howling fiercely. Because of the weather we didn't get to participate in any outdoor activities, so I vowed we would make a return visit. Thanksgiving week of 2025, we got to bring our daughter, son-in-law and two grandsons for a return visit to Wildcatter. I knew the ranch had been bought by a young couple about a year previously who wanted to upgrade some of the tired aspects of the ranch, so we were excited to explore all the offerings and see what had changed. The Wildcatter Ranch is set on a hill with beautiful views. There is plenty to explore so it is perfect for boys who revel in the outdoors. There is a fishing hole, there are horses in the stable to ride, there is basketball, tetherball, hiking, a pool and hot tub, and there are longhorns to feed each morning. These are all great activities we partook in. They supply guests with fishing poles, basketballs and towels for the pool. My disappointment? On both trips to the ranch, in all 3 cabins, the fireplaces did not seem to be working. (this is 3 cabins of about 12!) The hot tub that they told us we could use? Not working. The 'pony' ride for my grandson who is under 10, the age required for horse rides, that was advertised for 30 minutes? It was a 15 minute guided walk around a field on a horse. The 'hour' trail ride lasted 50 minutes. The session to 'learn grooming and care for a horse'? All three of us were literally handed brushes, told how to walk around the back of a horse, then left standing next to one horse to brush. The optional activities were a bit short on what was advertised, though both boys said their time with the horses was their favorite part of the visit. The steakhouse prices had gone up quite a bit since 2022. We can highly recommend the biscuits, however. They are heavenly.
