    What better place to mark the end of summer and the beginning of another Allstar month than an afternoon trail ride. I always wanted to come here but my kid was under 6 before Harvey so we didn't. I remember this place getting flooded hard during Harvey. And during the ride they'll show you a tree which was underwater 25" high. I kinda recall a lot of the horses dying and them trying to evacuate them. The flooding was so sudden and it surprised us as well with 6" of water overnight in my Kingwood house. The online booking system was easy to navigate. There is a fee or tax which was about $7 for the two of us on a 1 hour ride. It's nice that someone actually answers the phone if you call. She didn't sound like she was working at the ranch as I heard a baby in the background. Today being a Labor Day they were extra busy. In fact I tried booking online and was unable to get my first choice because it filled up literally right as I hit the pay button. In my opinion this is definitely one of the better run horse ranches in town. I've noticed that other places are run by folks who have a passion for horses but, although they may intend well, they just do not have either the business acumen or more often the discipline required to run a business. But this place has a better grip on customers. We booked a 1 hour ride which actually turned out to be the perfect amount of time for us because our bums started hurting around then. But if you're a die hard, you can get another half hour for only $15 more. And then another half hour on top or that for yet another $15. Helmets are required but you can wear them over a hat. They also have free new bandanas which is nice because I didn't see anyone tending to the helmets or cleaning them off after folks returned from their rides. The helmet rack is self service. And it was hot, sweaty and sticky out there. You can also borrow a fanny pack for free. There are a lot of choices there actually although some of the bags have holes so just double check them (some smelled like wet towel too). They're big enough to store your water bottle. There's a soda machine too for $1.75 It's a pretty big ranch with lots of horses and ranch hands to help out. Customers seemed to keep coming and going today yet the ranch had enough horses for everyone. They have all types of horses. One woman in my group was probably pushing the 240 lb weight limit and she got a big horse that had hooves like a Clydesdale. She was wearing open toe sandals (like tevas) too. Our guide was nice and literally gave this customer the socks off her own feet because she didn't want the customer to get scratched up rubbing against the trees and bushes in the forest. The guide just rode barefoot. They're not super strict on the shorts either as many folks including the guide was wearing them. I'd say the actual ride time is about 45 minutes on a 1 hour ride. 10-15 minutes of instruction and getting folks situated and sorted out with gear and on their horses before the ride. You'll see lots of beauty berries which have an odor used to make perfume. And even some wild bamboo too. If the guide asks the group to choose between the flat trail or going into the forest riding on uneven terrain that goes up/down definitely choose the latter. You get to go in the forest and along the river on an only slightly uneven trail. It's immensely more interesting than the flat trail part. And the actual up and down is so minimal you'd barely notice it. Our horses were so mild manner. They knew exactly where they were going without any need to guide them by the riders. At the end you get to give your horse water. But nobody's horse was thirsty. $5 gets you some horse food which I recommend if you enjoy more interaction. There are signs encouraging tipping for a good ride. But the guides didn't seem all pushy about it like some places.

    Bedias the horse

    This was my first time riding a horse, and it was so much fun. I booked a spontaneous trip after coming across their website. I booked a 90-minute adventure ride, and I was the only one in the 90-minute group, so there was flexibility in what to see. For a small fee, you can also feed the horses. The staff and horses are very understanding that I had no experience with horses at all. It was great to be in nature. It is a very fun trip, both solo and if one goes with a group of people. I will definitely come back again. Shout-out to Erica for making the experience memorable.

    Enjoying horse riding

    The horse ride was phenomenal I will come again I give them and Leonardo a 10 Very professional and patient

    Went on a private trail ride 8/25 everything went smooth I had a lot of fun and the horses were really friendly and well trained they did a good job at walking us through how to conduct ourselves on a horse which was super important since I have zero experience with horses 10/10 experience I would definitely go back

    Everything was amazing my third time riding horse was very calm listen to all my comments. My instructor was great very knowledgeable of the horses and the area. Took AWESOME pictures!!!! Only one complaint I paid for a sunset private ride, it ended before sunset! However I will be back!!!

    Me and 6 others came here for my birthday, and it was one of the most fun experiences I've had in a while. I was a little nervous at first, but all of the staff were so professional, friendly, and educated about horses that it made me feel better. Plus, the staff gave so much direction, rules, and tips before the ride. Once we actually started riding, it wasn't nerve wracking at all and was so fun! We did the 1.5 hour adventure trail ride and our guides were Lois and Aria. Lois led the group and did a great job! I was closer to the back so I spent more time talking with Aria who was honestly amazing. She was so sweet, outgoing, and informative -- I couldn't believe how young she was when she told us because of the way she carried herself. I rode Toby who was a very sweet and calm horse. I will definitely be returning more than once and will ask for Toby, Aria, and Lois again! Lastly, all of the staff I interacted with were very sweet and I could tell they really care for the horses and enjoy what they do, which is always nice to see. Would definitely recommend this ranch!

    See all

    Ask the Community - Cypress Trails Ranch

    My four year-old grandson would like to ride, but he's never ridden before. Do you have ponies? He probably won't want to ride for long do you have 30 minute increments??…

    Beverly, we do have pony rides, they are perfect for 4 year old kids. You can lead the pony or hire a staff member to lead them around the yard. A half hour pony ride is $35 and can be booked online at cypresstrailsranch.com.

    So question is do you have to wear a helmet?

    Yes… but you can bring your own.

    Hello I would like some information on horseback riding for 2-3 adults.…

    Go to the website and book and pay for your horse ride on any day you choose that they are open.

    If you are an experienced rider are you required to ride with a helmet? My husband only wears caps and cowboy hats. :-) I was thinking this would be a good birthday gift for him if it is not a requirement.

    Yes , It’s a requirement for your safety . I just brought my own . They deal with many customers of varying abilities. They are a very safe riding stable and take great care of their customers well being.

    Don’t See Your Question? Ask Away!

    The fact they offer a fast ride for experienced riders was so fulfilling as I haven't been on a horse in years.
