Lovely Ranch - Nice little area with shops, a small restaurant, And lots of places for kids to play. We sat outside by a pond until it was time for our ride. It was pretty and peaceful. Our guide, Shammah was so sweet and experienced. We enjoyed chatting with her. We had a great time and would highly recommend this spot. The horses were docile and well taken care of.

Greycliff Horseback - Beautiful views of Yellowstone River after climbing up the bluff. I would say this trail ride is for folks who have ridden horse due to the hilly terrain. Our teenage grandsons did great on their 1st ride, but they are very adventurous! The area had a fire recently and thankfully their buildings were spared.

Magical - It was a magical ride!!! The scenery was beautiful and the horses were great. I wish it could’ve been a longer ride. The only downside was how windy it was.

Awesome - My 2 daughters and I travelled to Montana from Vermont. It was an amazing trip. We decided to book a trail ride since neither of them had ever rode a horse on their own. Stephen our tour guide was great, he made the trail ride fun and made us feel very safe on the horses. When we do visit Montana again we will definitely be going back for another ride. Thank you so much for such a fun and enjoyable time.

Wonderful experience - We had a really great experience at the Ranch. We booked a 1 hour ride for a family of mixed ages, from 6 years to 68. Pretty much all beginners. I think our guides name was Ava, and she took us on a really nice ride with great views, and it was a wonderful experience for my family. The whole Greycliffe Mill and Ranch is a really great place to spend some time. We had a nice lunch and explored the Leather Works and the kids did some Looming, giving us some great hand made souvenirs. There is a food market and cheese cave and it seems the place is expanding. My kids also fell in love with Pepper the Dog, who has three legs, but that doesn't hold him back! Great time.

Unsafe - Booking this experience contributes to the pain and suffering of horses! This was my first ever horseback riding experience and it was unfortunately the most traumatizing. My partner attempted to get on the horse and the horse collapsed with him on its back. We were repeatedly told that the horse was fine and was still okay to ride. They lied. We trusted professionals to ensure our safety and the safety of their own horses. I have videos of the horse ride showing the horse constantly bobbing its head up and down. Not knowing much about riding, I still knew that this didn’t look right. “Bobbing its head up and down indicates lameness, discomfort, or pain”. WHY LET US RIDE THEN?! We were also told that this exact horse had 10 rides the day before, including someone who weighed up to almost 400lbs. HOW IS THAT HUMANE?! Why do other companies have weight limits and this one does not? If someone is too big for the horse, MAYBE THEY SHOULDN’T BE RIDING THAT POOR HORSE TO BEGIN WITH! Knowing that my money contributed to the pain and suffering of these horses is killing me. This company should be ashamed of themselves for allowing these horses to live in pain solely for human profit. I would have much rather cancelled this whole experience and received a refund, but instead they let us ride an already badly injured horse. Once this horse can’t take it anymore, they will likely just break another’s back. If you truly love horses, this is not the place to spend your money. Please contact Paintbrush Adventures instead! I went there after my terrible experience here and I actually learned so much about horseback riding and safety!
