THERE ARE OTHER HORSES TO CHOOSE FROM UPON YOUR ARRIVAL!

GOOD ENOUGH
Good Enough: A registered Quarter horse, both beautiful and healthy. He is a retired barrel racer with a great disposition.  Due to his age however, he prefers small women and kids.  storm
Storm:
Storm -  is a buckskin quarter horse.  She is suitable for many levels of adult rider but prefers the less timid rider as she is a very responsive mare.
Diesal
Diesal is a great riding horse for the heftier rider!! His
disposition is gentle but he handles like a Diesal- he likes to
be in the front and he is so big that the other horses move
out of his way! No kids please.
spoon
Teaspoon
Teaspoon -adults and children alike fall in love with this easy going quarter horse. The hardest part is resisting the temptation to let him sneak a bite of grass on the trail!
Onyx 
Onyx-is a fiesty tennessee walker more suitable for adult riders.  His smooth gate and winning "Denace the Menace" personality has won over many previous riders.  
Rose
Rose: is my 11 year old daughter's barrel horse.  Between races she enjoys trying to take advantage of riders by grabbing a bite of grass at every turn.

Spirit 
Spirit: is a great ride for all levels of rider.  Named after the movie "Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron", he is a wonderful babysitter for timid children and adults and will magically change personality for the experienced rider. baby slick
Slick 
Slick is a quarter horse with a passion for snacks.  He is laid back and loves to pick up a snack on the way down the trail.  He has been known to walk over trees in an effort to pick up a leaf. derrickandjeb
Jeb!!!!
Jeb is Derrick's personal mount. Together they spend quite a bit of time participating in re-ennactments of the War Between The States.  During his off time, Jeb enjoys carrying all levels of riders through our many trails!
KIRA Kira-She is a retired jumping horse that came to me from Animal Actors here in Blue Ridge. She was used to instruct Equine jumping with children. Although no horse is completely child safe, Kira is as good as any horse I've seen with children. No one has ever complained about her.
FORREST GUMP
Forrest Gump- "Run Forrest Run!" Forrest has to be in his number two spot on the trail. He is a young horse with a lot of spunk. He is also one of my strongest horses. He got his name from a local farrier who said that he was one of the dumbest horses he'd ever met. In reality he is very smart and just got the best of Mr. Farrier. He is for those who like a little spunk.  

Thunder is a beautiful white walking horse and is what the Indians call a medicine hat paint.
Very unusual, they were sacred by Native Americans and were ridden by Chiefs in the tribes or by Medicine men. They were considered to have
supernatural powers- .well, I don't know about all that but
Thunder is sweet and a great horse for all level of riders

Polly
Polly is a spunky Paint mare for any rider who has some experience under their belts! Get ready to hold on as you smoothly gait through the trails....Riders with some experience please! :-)
Farmer
     Farmer makes a great ride for children and less adventurous adults.  His easy going personality makes him a favorite for the more timid souls.
