We offer private events that blend the joy of horses with the beauty of Northern Michigan — perfect for birthdays, field trips, homeschool gatherings, family outings, and community groups. From gentle pony rides and horse-drawn wagon or sleigh adventures to cozy campfires and hands-on grooming time with our Miniatures, every visit is designed to bring smiles, laughter, and lasting memories.
