We make a trip to Grindstone Stables every year. 5 kids and an adult. The leads and the owner are extremely friendly making it an amazing experience for the kids. Each horse uniquely named. They are presented a certificate and sticker badge upon completion. The horses are well taken care of too.

Our experience at Grindstone Stables was one of the highlights of our trip. This is a wonderful family run business, and you can tell they genuinely care about both their customers and their horses. The owner's daughter and her family led our ride, and they were fantastic.

★★★★★ Explorer, Aug 2026

The horseback ride tour was amazing. The entire staff was very attentive, courteous and ensured our group was safe. The trail had beautiful views of the surrounding mountains and Grindstone lake. This is an attraction for everyone, it doesn't matter the experience or age There is drinks available at the ticket counter.
