Colossal Cave Mountain Park Riding Stable

Everett absolutely made the whole tour experience the best! I got suddenly anxious before the ladder tour but their personality totally calmed me down and made me laugh throughout the hour and a half in the cave. The ladder tour was awesome and felt safe but adventurous when we went off the path of the general tour. 100 percent recommend to get out & do something different (plus the cave is always 71 degrees compared to the 100 + degrees in the summer heat)

Amazing experience ! The the tour was about 50 minutes total, and only about 1/2 mile long. There are quite a bit of stairs but it wasn't too bad. It was a little warm, the tour guide said it was about 71 degrees inside. Our group wasn't too big and consisted of all types of people and age groups so it's perfect for the entire family. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. She cracked corny little jokes but it was cute and funny. You will get hot and start sweating so dress appropriately. There are multiple cave tours as well as hiking trails. The harder ones are a lot longer and aren't suitable for children under 12. Oh and masks are required! Will definitely be back with my 5 yr old.

We made a somewhat last-minute reservation for horseback riding and Jamie was able to fit us in after the cave tour. The entire experience was fantastic. The staff were accommodating and helpful, the guide was knowledgeable and fun to talk to. We're not experienced riders but all felt comfortable and impressed with the beautiful view along the trail. Highly recommended as a fun family activity!

Wow! Wow! Wow!This "wrangler" absolutely sucked!! I apologize if she has some type of personality disorder, which deep down it could be Aspergers or somewhere along that line, but my goodness we felt like we had her working under a gun, yet we paid extremely too much for 2 adults and full price for out 3 year old who didn't even get her own horse!!She lagged the entire time.Upon arrival she was delivering food to other animals, fine feed these animals, but 30 minutes later we are finally greeted in person no formal name to name greeting, just come on into the office. Handed of forms of waivers and took nearly $175 from us!She then left to set up the horses as we stood and sat awkwardly at the bench tables. Gazing at the small petting zoo nearby. Which she never offered or acknowledged although via phone registration we were told it was included. Something they could have us engage in while being ignored!!!!!! My 3 year was very bubbly and chatty but this woman made us feel like we were interrupting her free time!!!Another 15 minutes later after she randomly collected 3 horses she says vaguely from way over at the loading dock "you can come over", so I am asking my husband should we pass on this trip, with this being only his second time, his well-being and safety is in a persons hand that made us feel extremely unwelcome. Uncomfortable to say the least. So she says "who is riding with the little girl""?"" I am riding with our daughter" I reply. So she parks a huge horse near steps and stands." Do you want us in this horse?" I proceed to ask." yes" she replies. I get near the horse and proceed to ask " Great, what is this horses name?""Blonde" she states."Great, how old is blonde?" I ask as I begin to rub Blonde and introduce myself to this gorgeous beast of a horse I am able to ride with my 3 year old whom I know nothing about."12" is her response.At this point I figure I will stop pulling her teeth out with every question.We are on. She leads Blonde forward and facing away from the direction of exit.......She parks another gorgeous horse and stands.No questions asked my husband gets on in silence, displaying slight awkwardness and unaware of what to ask or say. She then leads his horse nose to but with Blonde.I encouraged him to greet the horse and ask the name and riding style. We were unsuccessful. His horse nipped gently at my horse so I attempted to more Blonde forward. She is STUBBORN! I ask the wrangler are they western or eastern she said west and I direct my husband to move his horse from ours.We look up and getting situated and she is exiting area on horse back. "Do we following you out now?""Yes just be sure not to let them stop near the other horse" and waits for our departure. My husband struggles with his horse whom is not understanding my husband and his commands and I remind her he doesn't ride as often so can we get a mini crash course of some type." Pull the reins to the direction you want to go." He tries and no response. She repeats her statement but this time slightly shows him. And finally she calls to the horse and he walks toward the group.I think to myself I am now in charge of keeping a 3 year old comfortable in a saddle with my not so tiny self and remind my husband how to properly balance his weight of 210 lbs on the horse we got absolutely no introduction to.And off we go following the leader. Whom vegans texting or strolling through her cellular device this second we made it out of the arena. 10 mins in she seems programmed to ask the usual question asked on these rides, " So where are you all from...?"I stare and look back at my husband. Breath deep and reply with only the state. Idaho. She continues to ride. We continue to follow. Awkward silence and 30 minutes into it she slows at a spot to say what seems to be programmed " sunset is beautiful here" and continues.....We act amazed, engaged and interested and continue to follow.The ride is what you make of it so we chatted amongst ourselves. Took tons of videos and photos along the way. Made sure this didn't ruin our fun and most importantly our daughter's. She did great and was well behaved and fell asleep on horse back!!! Ride was over she did not thank us nor wish us well. Although we did that. She said gate may be locked upon exiting the ranch so she gave us the gate code and we retuned the helmet we suggested at the beginning of the ride that our 3 year should were. When she replies with if you want. Lol Never returning unless it is a free ride. We wouldn't pay another dime for the experience! Horses are beautiful, animals and well-kept but my goodness she either had prejudice tendencies or mental delays. God forgive me if it is mental delays.A trip already planned for Way Out West Ranch which has remarkable reviews and photos and details. And discounts for first time riders and even Groupon deals. With great customer reviews

The cave tour was very fun!! The tourists said to say uhm Erik? Smells nice : ) and uhm Adam smell bad. The jokes make it so much funnier aswell as amusing!!! The cave was beautiful! I absolutely loved hearing about the evolution of people in the cave ask !..the demonstrations were vivid too. The view was AMAZINGGGG LIKE O.M.G i did trip sometimes, just don't be clumsy like me loll. The gift-shop was nice too aswell as every other worker Also do watch your head

Eric our tour guide was awesome! And made the tour enjoyable and educational. Dad jokes were awesome too

Loved the site and the tour. Fantastic tour guide. Emilio was incredibly entertaining and has luscious locks

I took a tour with a 5 and 10 year old. Our guide, Dalton, was fantastic. The tour was interesting and informative for both adults and children. We highly recommend!

My family went riding for the first time 2 weeks ago and they were understandably nervous, especially my 11 year old nephew. Chris had a gentle manner that made my nephew laugh and reassured him that everything would be okay.The ride went exactly as Chris had said it would. My nephew had a wonderful time and said he can't wait to go riding again.In addition, Chris took videos and photos which he gave to my family for free at the end of the ride. Plus, the cost of the ride was very reasonable - less than other riding stables in the area.When you factor in Chris' bedside manner, his ability to make new riders feel at ease, and his reasonable prices, I would highly recommend Chris and Colossal Cave Riding Stables.

This review is long overdue! My friend came to visit me from out of town and I'm usually the one that makes the itinerary of activities for us to do. After a very long google search, I came across this place and it looked pretty cool. The location is breathtaking. From the gift shop you can see the mountains and all the beautiful cacti miles out. Adam was our tour guide and he was absolutely phenomenal! He really knows his stuff when it comes to the history of this beautiful cave. He even told a few corny jokes to keep us laughing the entire time. It was also my first time ever seeing bats and I thought it was the coolest thing ever. They weren't as big as I thought they'd be though. Although it was quite the drive, it was well worth it and I'd come back a million times. I really only took videos but this is the best photo I got! We went on the cheapest tour and it still lasted about an hour. I 100% recommended going with friends and family!
