This is more of a review of the awesome event. Douglas County PrideFest was held here. As the…read moreparent of an LGBTQIA child and an ally I'm always concerned about the safety of the community. Last year's event was interrupted by intolerant protesters. Not this year! Parker PD was at the field in full force with snipers and rovers on foot and in vehicles. Thank you to Parker PD. The various booths were informative and fun. My only complaint for the whole event was the amount of grasshoppers and occasional pile of horse poo that you'd come across. But it is an equestrian park so I expected the poo. As for the grasshoppers, they ended up on and in everything. A day later and I was still finding them in my car.

I stumbled across Parker Riding Academy after a horrible experience with a different horse ranch…read more After prepaying for lessons and then being scammed, and finding out only 4 days before my daughters birthday, I was able to get in touch with Sabrina, who was not only great with communication and following through but made a horse riding lesson happen for my daughter on her 8th birthday as I had originally had planned. Not only did Sabrina make it happen on such short notice but she had a coach, Allie, who was willing to come in on a Sunday (when they don't normally give lessons) to make sure my girl was taken care of. When we arrived the morning of our first lesson Allie was there, ready to go. She was patient and kind with my overly excited daughter. It really was something special. I am over the moon about my experience and would recommend them to anyone who is looking for lessons! They deserve 10 stars!!!!

Ok, after trying to get my horse boarded at the ranch, I have a very different opinion. When I…read moretoured the facility, I communicated clearly that I intended to board there. The owner said that was not a problem, and I told her I'd call back within a couple of days to make the final arrangements to move my horse there. I proceeded to call back 2 days later and left a message reminding her who I was and that we had discussed boarding my horse there. I asked that she call me back so we could confirm details and plans. Since I had already told my previous stable that I was leaving, I really needed to get all the plans in place. Again, I had let the owner know, in a face to face conversation, that I was interested in moving my horse to her barn at the end of September, and she had agreed that would work for her. However, she never returned my phone call, and she never returned any of the other calls I made over the next week. Since I couldn't very well just show up and hope for the best, I was left searching for another stable at the last second. This was made all the more stressful by the fact that I don't have a horse trailer and I rely on hiring horse haulers to move my horse, a fact the owner of A Worthy Ranch was aware of. I couldn't wait until the last minute to hire someone, yet I couldn't hire someone without knowing where we'd be going. I'm not sure what happened or why, but A Worthy Ranch left me in a very tight spot. It was quite disappointing and stressful, and it's an experience I hope to never have again. Thankfully the nice folks out at Tanglewood Ranch in Franktown saved the day by letting me board there even on short notice. Tanglewood turned out to be nicer and cheaper too, so all's well that ends well. Based on my experience, I'd strongly discourage boarding at A Worthy Ranch. If the owner won't contact you when you're trying to start paying her money, why would she contact you after you're already a customer? And if she had changed her mind and decided not to let me board there, why didn't she have the decency to let me know?

My 3-year-old loves horses and wanted to try horseback riding so I looked for someplace close that…read morewould give her that opportunity. I found A Worthy Ranch on the internet and called and made an appointment. It was $45 for a one hour ride and they have a miniature horse named Tiddlywinks that they let small children ride. A ranch hand named Anna was really patient and good with children and showed my daughter how to put the saddle on the horse and clean his hooves out before the ride. We walked the horse to a small arena and Anna led Tiddlywinks and my daughter around in circles. It was calm and slow so I wasn't worried that my child would get hurt. It was a good experience and I'm glad we did it.

We booked our trip beginning of 2022-ish when they were running som specials on 2 and 3 day trips…read more I gave the information to my girl scouts and had a couple that wanted to go. I was not initially supposed to be the adult going with. I have a fear of bigger and faster rapids....... However stuff happened and it ended up being me. From the beginning they were easy to work with. I had made a tentative reservation online but we didn't have quite enough people. However our trip was early in the season. I called after a couple of days to see if they thought we would be a go. They opted to run the trip for us since we were early season. They did keep it up for others to potentially join but no others did. Which is unfortunate. Our experience was great! They sent plenty of email communications as it got closer including asking about dietary needs and then reminders. When we arrived we got there an hour early as instructed in the email. They checked us in. Got us a dry bag and our tokens for getting the wet suit. We went and packed our dry bags. And then picked up our wet suits and went to the bathrooms to change. Bathrooms were clean and well kept. The wet suits dont have the arms and neck so you would want to wear a non cotton shirt underneath or be sure to wear a lot of sunscreen (if you are renting a wet suit. We were early season and it was recommended to us) Turbo, the driver came out to chat with us as we were waiting and gave a pep talk. Through our chat he had found out I was nervous. Appreciated the pep talk. Our guides, Kat and Gregg were professional and knowledgable about rafting. Kat shared quite a bit of some of the cool history of the area. Gregg really try to engage my quiet and introverted girls. Being that we were doing a 2 day trip there was food involved. We had 3 of us who have celiacs and then one who is also vegan and one who is also vegetarian. They were able to accomodate our needs with really yummy, delicious and filling food. Gregg and Kat prepared all our meals. Honestly we all felt a little bad we are used to being doers. It was weird to have someone else doing all the work. But they did a great job and the food was yummy and satisfying! They also had some desert available at times and hot drinks. Was so thankful that they did such a good job with the food. Sometimes places can't get it right when you have a gluten free and vegan combo. That was not the case here. They did a great job!! Our camping area was lovely. There was a little bit of hiking available. But they also brought some games that we played for a bit. It was nice and relaxing. The next day going through the canyon was definitely a lot of fun. As with most companies they do take some pics of your ride, if you want pics be sure to stop back by the front desk after your experience. You wont be sorry this is a great company.
