FAQs for Trail Rides
What is your response to COVID?
We have changed some procedures in response to COVID, you can find the full COVID Response for Mountain Creek Riding Stable online.
- Our gift shop is currently closed until further notice and all business will be conducted outside.
- When you arrive please go around the side of the barn to the window for assistance. This also means that we have no indoor bathroom facilities and instead we have a porta-potty on the property.
- Our staff will wear masks when interacting with guests. While we ask that guests wear them as well, they are not required once on horseback, everyone is more than 6 feet apart and so masks are not necessary.
- Our team regularly sanitizes surfaces that guests may come into contact with.
What is your cancellation policy?
We prefer cancellations be done over the phone, as we cannot check our e-mail throughout the day.
