About This Tour
We provide a controlled environment for safe horseback riding for kids and beginners, and a petting zoo. We have a 24,440 sqft equestrian center with a spectacular view of Mississippi river sunsets. Our location is wonderful, with nature all around us. Our horses are calm and happy in this place. They love to be petted and groomed. The goats, pigs, and chickens are friendly, and will eat out of your hands. Rub the pigs belly, scratch the goat, feed meal worms to the chickens, and watch the smiles grow on your family's faces. The ducks provide comical quacking as they waddle around the property. The pigs grunt as they come and go. The miniature horse is absolutely wonderful with kids and can carry up to a 50 lb rider. We move along at your kids' pace. Nobody else has rental apartments overlooking an indoor horseback riding arena, where you can see the animals and beautiful scenery right outside your windows.
