Very easy to book a ride on line. My granddaughter and her friend had a great time. Told me about the deer they saw.

This is our third year to ride with Stony Lake Stables. My son (now 8) looks forward to it every year. The guides are helpful and fun for my usually shy son to talk to. They always put him on a well suited horse and my son is confident and at ease. I have been riding at Rainbow ranch since I was a kid, now 38, I am so happy that the tradition continues. A great way to get outdoors and see a little piece of paradise that Michigan offers. We will be back!

Best part of our trip! The staff was so friendly upon arrival. Instructions were clear and the trail ride was a great time. My young kids were guided by the lead wrangler, Delaney, sting they loved. They talked non stop and she entertained them the whole way, giving me the only hour in six years that I’ve not heard mommy mommy mommy a million times. Thanks for the great time. We will be back next summer!

Stony Lake Stables was amazing! I thought they were extremely organized and accommodating and had a system down that made me feel at ease. I appreciated they gave me time to take pictures of my daughter on her horse. I also was extremely impressed with a girl Harriet an experienced rider who led our group and took my 6 year old under her wing to tell her jokes and make her comfortable when she was nervous. She really made our day and no matter what she does in life whether it’s with horses or something else she will go on to do amazing things! As we left the first thing my daughter said was, “when can we go again?”, which is great because she didn’t say much the whole time so I wasn’t sure if she liked it at first. :)
