Our son received nothing therapeutic or healing at this riding center. As his mother, I received…read moreonly a lasting feeling of nausea and regret whenever I think about the red flags I ignored as his lessons progressed. After dealing with pediatric OT and therapy over Zoom through the pandemic I wanted so much for something like this to work for him, he sounded like the perfect candidate based on their website. I wish I had recognized the toxicity sooner and stopped it. I do not want to publish personal details about my son online, however, since I can't go back in time and warn myself, I would like to warn other parents in my place. If you have a child with behavioral or developmental difficulties and are considering taking them to Healing Winds Therapeutic Riding Center, please don't. If you are a parent considering this riding center and would like to know more about our specific experience as you make decisions for your family please message me directly. To the owners of this business, please do not contact me at all.

Hello Everyone!…read more Please know that the park is NOT a campground. It is for DAY USE ONLY. Several signs are throughout the park that note that fact. Before Bratton Canyon Park was handed over to Clark County by the Washington State Department of Natural Resources in 2011, it was operated as a campground. However, there are no foreseeable plans to turn it back into one. A park host is always on site to answer any questions about this or if you have other concerns. Always happy to help! Security and safety is taken very seriously at this park. All suspicious behavior is reported to authorities and law enforcement does respond. THERE ARE NO FIRES OF ANY KIND ALLOWED. This includes but not limited to campfires, propane or charcoal barbecues, fire pits, and anything else with an open flame. This is stricter than County regulations and for the safety of visitors, park host, and surrounding residences. Please help keep our park safe by following the rules. Anyone breaking those rules will be told to leave the park. The remaining camping barbecues that were left in the park are not maintained or cleaned for public use. Running water in the park is at the park host site only and it is not potable. Electricity is only at the park host site and the only location in the park with lights. Due to the dense tree coverage and for safety of park visitors, the park hours for opening and closing do vary, based on light and weather conditions. Opening is generally 8:00am year round and closing is approximately 15 to 20 minutes before sunset based on the season. This has been as early as 4pm in winter to as late as 9pm in summer. The park has one vault toilet that is open and it is next to the parking area and closest to the picnic pavilion, horseshoe pits, and (one netted basket) basketball court. Poles are on either side of the court for a volleyball or tennis net, but you need to bring your own. There are other buildings within the park, but they are locked for safety reasons. Trash bins are located in the parking area, next to the vault toilet, and at the picnic pavilion. Please do your part to keep the park clean. Contrary to other website pictures, this park does not have a lake or river running through it. A small seasonal creek exists on the west side but is not accessible. Several dirt trails wind through the 80 acre forest park and provide visitors with hiking and horseback riding opportunities. Horse trailer parking is available, so bring your horse. A gravel and dirt road that circles through the park is good for bicycle riding. A great place to find peace and quiet among the birds. ABSOLUTELY NO ATV OR OFF ROAD/MOTOCROSS MOTORCYCLES! They are NOT ALLOWED! This is posted and violators will risk a very hefty fine per county regulations. Do not climb the trees or disturb the natural beauty of the plant and animal life in the park. UPDATE: This is a response to a review regarding horses in the park. They are allowed and there is no sign saying otherwise. Please keep in mind that this is a natural park. The road in from the main road is gravel and dirt. The trails are dirt. This is Western Washington and rain mixed with dirt will make mud. The horses and their owners are a small fraction of the visitors to the park and not the only ones using the trails. Visitors have included dogs and even pack goats. Please dress accordingly for your hiking comfort and needs. This is also a response to a previous review about someone not feeling comfortable walking their dog in the park. The person incorrectly assumed that the loose dogs were the ones belonging to the park host. They never allow their dogs to run loose, they are never outside by themselves, and they are always under control. If anyone ever has a safety issue or sees other dogs off their leashes in the park, please contact the park host. They want everyone to have a great experience in the park. Thank you!
