What riders say about Townsend stables
My husband and I had a fantastic experience at this riding stable. We showed up on a Wednesday morning expecting to drive the Cades Cove Loop and had forgotten that they close the road for vehicles on Wednesdays. We could not find a parking spot and pulled into the stable to turn around.
This is the best riding experience I have ever had! They actually take you through the woods, up and down hills. Also my little one was having a melt down and I mean those full blown melt downs, and they were so amazing with her! They walked her horse around while the rest of us got situated.
Our private horseback ride with Nicole was the highlight of our trip to the Smoky Mountains! I rode a rescue horse that was so well behaved and it was apparent all the horses received so much love. My wife is new to riding and through Nicole's instruction, she was even trotting by the end of the ride.
