SEASONAL HORSES
Seasonal Horses are available for the Full Summer or Fall Seasons.  Seasonal leasing is appropriate for anyone who will be using the horses for longer than two weeks.  May 1st marks the beginning of the Summer Season and you can return your horses in September. Fall Season begins September 1st, return your horses by December 1st.
Guest Ranches, Trail Rides, Outfitters & Camps:
We rent horses that can be safely worked into your operation.  Supplement your existing string or lease an entire string of mountain horses that are able to take on the rigors of the dude season. These are seasoned horses that pack or ride and can handle most guests you have. We encourage you to come to the ranch and choose your own horses to meet your demands. Our rates make seasonal leasing an affordable alternative to ownership. This option is perfect for the seasonal dude industry or seasonal horse rider. We reserve the same horses for you each year so you can keep the horses you like and have worked into your program.  Best of all, if you do not like the horse we will replace him with one that you do like!
