Katie is an amazing guide who has lifelong experience with horses, and is great with people, too. Our horses were great for the level we chose, and we had a really nice, fun ride. We brought carrots and apples to feed the horses after we returned, and they let us meet some of the other horses, too. Adam is the owner and is really nice and welcoming. We really liked the guy who feeds the horses, too!The price and the drive were totally worth it (price was better than L.A., for sure) and we'd definitely like to go again. Thanks SoCal Horse Adventures!

There are a few signs along the way to reassure you that you're on the right path. When you arrive you will sign a waiver and we paid $60 for the ride. Kathy & Liz were our guides and my horse was Eros. They give you a helmet to wear on the ride and then help you up on the horses & start the ride. The horses were well behaved and knew exactly where they were going and followed in a line. It was a beautiful day for a ride and I had a great time! After the ride you can feed the horses carrots.

This was my first time coming here, and I really enjoyed it. The trail has two fairly steep hills…read moreone going up and one on the way back so it's about a 2-3 mile hike depending on your pace. I'd rate it easy to moderate because of those hills. I brought my 5-year-old, and she was able to handle it, but she did complain on the way back, so next time I probably won't bring her. The views are really nice, and there are a few smaller trails around the area. I'm definitely planning to go again. I went a bit late around 9 a.m., and the sun was already pretty strong, so going earlier would be better. Overall, I 100% recommend this hike.

All the children enjoyed riding the horses and playing the games, but my biggest surprise was how much they enjoyed panning for "gold". 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".

The staff were all extremely friendly and made every invited guest feel welcomed, even the shy ones. The organization was great, and allowed us to focus on our guests as they were busy running the show for the little ones. The horse riding was a blast, and the small sided games on the side were a hit, especially the panning for gold. Every adult there loved the place and what they had to offer. There was plenty of shaded areas if you are worried about it being a bit warm. Would definitely recommend! Thank you to everyone at the Copper Horse Riding Ranch, we and our guests had a great birthday party experience!

I placed a call, the owner Monica answered right away and I explained our situation. In that very first phone call, she let me know they were still able to compete at events on horseback that my son might like to do and she even offered one of her lesson horses for him to use. When I excitedly told my son what she said, he replied "Why would she offer me her horse, she doesn't even know us??!" I told him, well, I guess some people are just giving like that or have a feel for good people like us. That pretty much sums Monica up. She is the consumate giver and ultimate all around horsewoman. She's all about the horses FIRST and does not hesitate to offer her decades of amazing experience and support in any scenario. Whether taking lessons or boarding here, you will automatically be at an advantage because of who she is as a person. Monica ended up giving us our first horse, as well as continuing to offer her support to this tiny family of green horse owners ourselves, as we've added a few more after! We can't envision being anywhere else, it's truly been a blessing knowing Monica, as well as all the other engaging and supportive horse owners at Sweetwater!
