Great wagon ride and BBQ

Published on Oct, 2024

Fantastic evening riding on a wagon through the forest to a BBQ. The food was amazing and the staff were lovely. It was cold but then it was October. Blankets provided to help but wrap up warm. We had a great evening. Thank you. Wayne and Luke the horses were beautiful and our cowboys were lovely.

Entertaining outing

Published on Oct, 2024

As I was too heavy to ride one of the horses, my wife and I booked this wagon ride instead, and were glad we did. The rides to and from the cabin were pleasant, gentle ambles with the scenic Bow River in attendance. On the way back, we came across a group of elk, which was exciting. At the cabin, the food was excellent. However, I have to especially mention our guides, who were outstanding - the banter between Mike and Anna kept us entertained throughout.
