5.0Jordan Hollow Stables(272 reviews) - Most Amazing and Magical Experience Horseback Riding! Spent 1-2 hours Horseback Riding Tours
Without a doubt this is the best place to go horseback riding in the Luray, VA area!!! I surprised my girlfriend with their special occasion ride and wow, I was impressed. My expectations were beyond exceeded! Lisa and the guides were super lovely and went above and beyond to make this surprise extra special. They had a whole setup for us about halfway through our ride and took care of the horses while we had some time to celebrate! Regardless, if you don’t do a special occasion ride, this is still the place to go to. Customer service was an 11/10, they are very communicative and work with you. Beforehand, I was worried it was going to rain and I would have to cancel our ride, so I called Lisa multiple times and she was super sweet answering all my questions and monitoring the weather. Luckily it turned out to be sunny which made the special ride so much better. I highly recommend going to this place (because I will be coming back for sure)!See more..

4.0Massanutten Resort(62 reviews) - Great resort with a lot to do.. Spent 1-2 hours Horseback Riding Tours
Even during COVID, there are still a lot of options and things to do. Unfortunately, the tickets for tubing, ice skating & other events can sell out quickly during the busy season (bc of limited times due to COVID) so it’s a gamble with the weather and times, but we were fortunate to have been able to do everything. Our condo was very nice and clean. Had no issues while here. We don’t live too far from the resort so it’s always a nice getaway. Definitely worth a visit... hopefully the ticketing gets better in the near future. See more..
A friend and I went on a 1 hour trail ride at Oakland Heights Farm which is about a 40-minute drive outside of Charlottesville. The trail guides were kind and patient (for very beginner level questions), the horses were calm and friendly, and the trail path up and down the mountainside was lovely. You can tell the staff really love the horses they care for and want to share an enjoyable experience with horse riding newbies. I recommend this place to others.See more..

It was nice to be able to groom the horse before my lesson. I am looking forward to return visit.See more..

We had a 2-hour ride. My wife and I have riding experience and went with our son and our 7yr granddaughter. The horses were well behaved. Most important was our guide took great care of our granddaughter and made it a point of her having a great experience. She especially liked getting to canter. The woods and hills were pleasant with some steep up and downs. I recommend this outfit for a fun riding experience. See more..

I am SO very impressed by this facility and Jean French! I have been to many barns over the last 40+ years and I have to say, this one is top notch. I love that Jean takes the time to educate all the guests about horse behavior and mentality. She is also very careful to chose the right horse for the rider. My husband has never been on a horse before and had a lot of fear and anxiety. Jean was so patient and encouraging with him. Today he had his second lesson with her, followed by his first trail ride, which he really enjoyed. Thank you Jean, for finding a non-threatening way to introduce my husband to something I have always been passionate about! I would encourage anyone who is interested in learning to ride to book a session at Marriott Ranch with Jean ❤️See more..

Earlier this summer I took a brief sabbatical to recharge my mind, body and spirit. There is nothing like the Blue Ridge Mountains and Middleburg, Upperville and Charlottesville, Virginia along the Shenandoah National Forest to refresh and renew. The best part was riding into the hills with Ms. Jean French of The Natural Connection!

4.5Lakewood Trails Rides(4 reviews) - I loved my riding experience!! Horseback Riding Tours I loved the ride but we could have gone faster. Although they did not know how experienced you are so they kept you at a slower pace. They are the cleanest,and nicest people that you could ride with. . They helped you down if you needed it and they let me lead the horses back to the stables. We saw wild life on the trail, like Turkey vultures. The horses are calm when you are riding them, and accommodate so many new riders easily. Over all it was a very good experience and I suggest you go there, it is a lot of fun.See more..
3.5Snow Creek Ranch(3 reviews) - YAY ---SHEA IS THE HORSE WHISPERER!! Horseback Riding Tours My family came in from Tampa, Florida--It is hard to top Disney & Epcot---BUT THEY DID!! Snow Creek Ranch was a magical experience We rented all the horses -and Shea even rode with my youngest grandson because he was so little!!! It is a wonderful ranch....and even got pictures with the Zebra!!! The kids didnt want to leave we rode all day long into nightfall. Shea is the most spectacular horsewoman...we even met her mother Bunny-my grandchildren fell in love with them both --they cried when we had to leave......but I know for sure they will be back from Florida just as soon as they can to see the Zebra, Shea, and Bunny @ The Snow Creek Ranch........yes it IS BETTER THAN DISNEY OR EPCOT....gave the "sea level beach kids" a true adventure through the prettiest scenery to the top of the mountain...overlooking "GODS COUNTRY"......cannot wait to go back!!!:) Thank you ladies!!!See more..
5.0Colchester Equines(2 reviews) - Horseback riding tailored to YOUR group & skill level Equestrian Trails • Horseback Riding Tours I have been horseback riding since I was little. I can ride, but not with the greatest form! Part of what I love while riding it the opportunity to trot and canter - not just walk. Riding at stables often means you go out with a large group and walk. At Colchester Equines, Sarah, the owner, ensures that your ride is tailored to you and your group. For the last two years, Sarah has been taking me out riding in Lake Anna State Park. She does not require a large group and is willing to take just me! I really appreciate that and never miss an opportunity when I am in the area to ride. Our ride is typically two hours. She also does lessons and shorter rides on her farm. Again, she caters to her riders abilities and requests. If some of your group is more experienced, she will allow those folks to trot and canter. All of her horses are very well cared for ... it shows. I have ridden several of them and loved every one. If you like to ride, don't miss a chance to ride with Sarah. She has me so spoiled that I no longer want to own a horse. I get all of the pleasure - and none of the work!See more..
