“Getting there can be tricky! Get a gps to take you to entrance to the Rock Springs Run State Reserve then follow the road to the stables. Then get ready for fun! The young ladies taking you on the trails are very polite a helpful, especially easing the uneasiness of a novice. They handle the horses well and explain everything you need to know about riding. The ride is leisurely and very scenic. I would do it again and highly recommend”

“Amazing experience with very knowledgeable and friendly Rochelle with Otter Paddle company. The 2.5 hours went by very quickly and glad we did the 8AM option before the crowds showed up after 10AM or so. All the different colors and vast wildlife was so nice to see and if Rochelle was not with us to guide various things to see we would of missed many nice experiences. Great pictures and video from the team too! thank you :)”
