It was so enjoyable and we met, pet and fed so many cool horse buddies, that I would love to come back and book a trail ride or lesson next time I am around.

By the end of the ride, he felt confident and was already talking about coming back again. Thank you, Bob, Linda, and Olivia, for making his first horseback riding experience so special and memorable!!!

My husband…read moreand I did a one hour trail ride around the property (I think it's around 20 acres) with Linda and Christy (Kristy?) who were both so friendly and helpful. I had gone horseback riding once over the summer, but I am definitely a newbie and Linda guided us on what to do (ex: lean back when going downhill and lean forward when going uphill). I love that we got to walk AND trot and cross streams. My horse Sarge was a former NYPD horse and he was very good and well behaved (although he was quick and ate some grass before I could stop him while on the trail). After we finished, Linda helped take some photos of us and we got to meet the other horses in the stable. I would absolutely recommend coming here!!!

My boyfriend and I took a trail ride for my birthday as Misfit Farm and it was one of my favorite…read moreriding experiences of all time! The farm: They have just recently moved and this new location has the most gorgeous barn interior I've even seen. Lofty, wood and timber, clean, organized, spacious, and open. The grounds were equally as stunning, especially in mid-october with the fall colors. We were early for our appointment and the groundskeeper generously gave us a tour of the grounds, introducing us to each horse and telling stories. The horses have so much room to run around and are paired with horses they get along with best and often ride together with, so they are all extremely friendly, and most are rescues. Our ride: Bridget was an amazing guide! She's one of those people who makes you feel in good hands from the start. She's extremely knowledgeable and experianced in riding and made sure we were comfortable every step of the way. My boyfriend and I are advanced riders and chose Misfit Farm because of the reviews for more intense trail rides and were extremely satisfied. "It's not your average Club Med ride!" as Bridget announced. We trotted, cantered, and galloped among the trails. I rode Gershwin, an extremely sweet and even tempered horse, and had one of my most comfortable rides ever at all gaits. The horses we took on the trail all knew each other very well and were super comfortable riding close together. Bridget was a true horse mom and knew each horse's personality and behavior. The scenery was picturesque and the trail was the perfect length. I can't wait to visit again. I highly recommend Misfit Farm to trail riders and horse lovers, they have so much offer!

My sister and I both ride several times per week so we booked the trail ride. The horses are forward but confident and in good body condition with their feet well cared for. Some of the horses may jig-jog on the trail so if you are a very nervous or timid rider you may want to ask for a steady type of horse. We had a great time, an hour ride which was mostly walking but with some good canter/hand gallops up the hills. The scenery is stunning, beautiful woods and fields. Our guide Stephen was very entertaining and full of useful information. Recommended!

Without a doubt, this has been my most exceptional experience to date. I highly recommend it!

She is a very sweet woman and asked what time would work best for us and we shortly landed on a time that worked for us both. Keep in mind, this place is Elene and Umberto's residence, and they are clearly hosting visitors because they enjoy what they do and sharing it with others. We arrived and called Elene and were met promptly by Umberto who took us to their stable to sign standard waivers and saddle up our horses for us, as well as giving us helmets to wear. My boyfriend and I were assigned Lila and Peggy to ride (both beautiful horses and unlike other reviewers wrote on here, the horses were definitely not skinny and underfed). Umberto helped us onto the horses one by one and then Elene instructed us how to hold the reigns and gave us the rundown on how riding and directing a horse actually works, which I found very helpful. Elene was stern at first with her instructions as she should be when educating someone how to properly ride an animal that could easily hurt you with its weight accidentally if handled incorrectly. After we understood the logistics we started along the BEAUTIFUL snowy path with Umberto and Elene alongside us on foot giving us more encouraging instructions along the way while also making very pleasant and interesting conversation. To be clear, they walked alongside us but were not holding onto and leading the horses as other reviews have said. Both Elene and Umberto were very sweet, interesting people who very clearly love what they do and love their horses dearly (after all, they moved to this location in order to be able to live somewhere where they were able to have their horses on site). I would highly recommend coming here for a ride if you're in the area, we enjoyed ourselves greatly and will definitely be returning again perhaps for a summertime ride this time!
