The Real Deal:
Why Riders Love Us
When guests talk about their time in the Black Hills, one memory rises above the rest — their ride with us. Riders call it “the highlight of our trip” and “the real deal,” a true Western experience that outshines every monument, trail, and tour. It’s not just a horseback ride — it’s the memory you’ll be talking about long after the dust settles.
Testimonials
“Our host, Pat, was so kind and awesome when he took us out on a horseback ride. He said the ride would ruin any other trail ride we ever do and I think he’s right. That experience was truly one of a kind and I hope we can come back next year to stay for a few more days and go for another ride."
“We went on an awesome horseback ride with Pat who was such a blessing to all of us!! I cried when I had to leave that’s how much fun it was!!"
