Today I took my nephew Bentley to Timmerman's and he went on his 1st pony ride!! (Selena was so great with him) All the staff was amazing!! Carol gave us a complete tour of the ranch, even showed us her dog Outlaw and his tricks!

★★★★★ Tracey, Jul 2024

Absolutely stunning place! 🌿 The stables are beautiful, surrounded by nature and full of peace. The horses are so well-groomed and clearly loved — it’s a joy just to be around them. The staff are incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive — they made the whole experience even more special.
