What riders say about Marshall stables

Smoky Mountain Trail Rides

Had an absolutely amazing time, the people are so sweet and welcoming, lots of animals to see and pet. The horses were very friendly and well trained, they rode beautifully! I was on a horse named Laney, she was a sweetheart.

Sandy Bottom Trail Rides

Today was one of those days I will never forget. It’s been years since I went horseback riding. The experience we had today was fantastic. My horse was Johnny who is a sweet soul. Our guide was Brian and he was great. I can tell you the horses are well cared for and are happy. We met Jack and it’s a family business.
