A Look Back at 2017!

A Look Back at 2017!

Well, it’s been another wonderful year here at the stables! In preparation for the New Year, we decided to take some time to reflect on all the past year has brought us!

Busy, Busy, Busy!

In 2017, we had over 7,500 riders at our Mountain Creek location, over 3,900 riders at The Ranch at Pocono Manor, and an amazing 1,570 pony rides between both locations! We’re happy to have been able to provide a great experience to so many people, many of whom had never seen a horse in person before! Here is some of our favorite feedback on the experiences at our locations:

“Took my wife here on our anniversary and we had a great time. Prices are great and the whole process was smooth.” – Gary M.

“I usually don’t write reviews but This was Very Awesome and my 10 year old LOVVVVED IT! Saw a baby faun with spots and Turkeys. Staff was awesome and my horse (mouse) was gentle and well trained! TY Moutain Creek!” – Shawn W.

“Thank you for making their first horseback riding experience very pleasant.  My 16 yr old and her BFF had a great time.  They are going again.” – Sylvia D.

 

A Fond Farewell

We also said goodbye to some of our older boys this year and retired CC, Magic, Colby, Dewie, Buster, and Boots. Each of them went to good homes where they can live out the rest of their days in leisure. If one of them happened to be your favorite horse, don’t worry! Each of our horses is a sweety, so come back and ride with us and fall in love all over again!

Colby got turned around sometimes, but we loved him anyway.

Fun throughout the year.

Since we’re open year round we get to have fun in both the sun and the snow! Of course, let’s not forget our friends at The Ranch who aren’t horses… they like to have fun as well!

A look forward.

We’re happy to have had a great year, but 2018 is almost upon us and we’re ready for it! If you’ve come out on a ride with us before we’d be delighted to see you again! And if not, we’d be delighted to meet you! Give us a call or email and we’d love to help you plan your trip! We hope everyone has a happy New Year and a wonderful 2018!
