We rode thru the woods and trails and up to the top of the point to look over the Brazos. Also went down in the shale of the river bed. It's a gorgeous and peaceful ride. Eric was our guide and Michelle helped us get ready and took lots of pictures for us. They are amazing people and showed us a piece of heaven on Earth. 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!

I have been leasing a horse from Carol for 5 years at her Danville Barn. The property is beautiful…read morewith an arena overlooking the Danville/San Ramon valley and also Mount Diablo. 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.
