Chisolm Trail Rides

My wife and I were in the Dallas / Ft Worth area for 4 days celebrating our 38th Anniversary and Valentine's Day. I booked us a 2-hr sunset ride. My wife and I like to ride horses whenever we go somewhere on vacation but it's often difficult to find a stable that (a) cares for their horses; (b) matched horses to the experience level of the rider; and (c) doesn't just have group trail rides on horses you could fall asleep on. The folks at Chisholm Trail Rides did a great job. Since we've ridden quite a bit previously, we were given horses that had some energy! We had a private ride (with our awesome guide Chelsey) and we got to 'let the horses go' at various times which was great! Chelsey was extremely personable and a great guide. I was also impressed that before our little group mounted an left, there was a group of four riders (obviously beginners) that were going out and Chelsey and the other guide took the time to tell them several things that I've rarely seen other stables tell new riders - all of which no doubt made for a better ride. I also liked the fact that they had small packs on each horse with a bottle of water and also room for our coats (it was nice when we started but going to get cooler later) and a small pouch for phones (that's a story for later); I've rarely ever had stables use packs like these and it is very welcome.Our ride was through a 30 acre wooded area with ponds. The ride was great!Just before we finished, my wife realized her phone fell out of her back pocket (she shoved it way down but I guess it fell out when we were cantering with the horses - not sure why she didn't put it in the zipped pocket on the pack ). So, we got the horses in and then Chelsey took us out with the Mule (four wheeled utility vehicle) to search for it. We weren't able to find it and it was getting dark, so we left. When we returned to our hotel, we used the 'Phone Finder' and located the phone. The next day we drove out and asked if we could walk the property to go to the general area - and they graciously said yes. Then one of the managers (she will kill me because I forgot her name - I'm sorry ) came out with the Mule and helped us look on foot. We realized we needed to go back and use WiFi and the earth view to get a better location. As soon as we did, she knew exactly where it was and she went out in the Mule, located it and brought it back. We had the chance to talk to Ashley (the other manager) and she was awesome as well. They gave up an hour of their time today and almost the same amount of time yesterday helping us find it.The ride was great; the area is perfect for riding for all levels; the staff are all super friendly and helpful. I would absolutely recommend them!

We had a great time at Chisholm Trail Rides! The staff made sure we were comfortable before heading out to the trails. The experience was super fun! Sarah was awesome!!!!

We took our granddaughter to the Chisholm Trails Riding School and had a wonderful time. The staff was very friendly and professional. The horses were very calm and the staff tries to pair you up with a horse to meet your experience. Being that I'm a little over weight they put me on a large horse named Bell, I loved Bell. Thank you to all the instructors and Ranch hands that helped make our day memorable.

This is the wonderful place to learn how to ride a horse and the staff make the entire experience so worthwhile! My son and I went for a sunset ride and had a blast! And we never road a horse before. This was a new experience for us. We were met by a team of riders who were experienced and who knew how to put new riders at ease. They beamed with excitement and you couldn't help but feel that they truly loved the service they provided. We had a great ride, which lasted a good amount of time. Once the ride was over, we were set up with a blazing fire by a pond, so that we could grill as the sun set - epic scene! I would recommed Chisolm Trail Rides to anyone looking to relax and have fun with people who are very fiendly and who truly love what they do.

We did a sunset ride with Sydney and it was the most amazing experience. 10/10 recommend. My partner and I will be booking with her again soon!

This was such a wonderful experience for my niece, nephew and myself. The beauty of this property was only surpassed by the warmth of the friendly staff, the sweet horses, dogs and chickens! We rode Aggie, Peaches and Chestnut (aka Duke). What sweetly temperamented animals. Jaime was patient and very open to sharing information about riding and ranch life in general. I'll definitely be returning. They're even opening up their pond for fishing. It's a little piece of heaven on earth. There was another sweet lady there too that wore glasses (can't remember her name) but the whole family there was great. Kid friendly too. Make the trip! You won't regret it!

Sydney was a fantastic trail guide. Our family, with varying levels of riding experience, had a great time. Hope we can come back soon.
