Really loved our time here, would do it again in a heartbeat! Attended the couples night, which I believe is a new thing they started this year. Included a 45 minute trail ride, picnic style dinner, and campfire. The people are absolutely awesome - so friendly, helpful, etc. They even took pictures of us on their phones and sent them to us. Not too many people attended, because they purposely keep the groups small (have to with horses & logistics). It made it intimate and even more fun. Would really love to do it again sometime!

Gold Rush Farm offers something unique in Ffld. County. They rent horses to the public and have miles and miles of their own trails. All the people are so friendly and welcoming, i go there monthly for trail riding. all the horses are so well cared for and Monique (the owner) is so knowledgable and accomodating.

Love this place! The people and horses are so friendly you're sure to have a great time! This is the best place in Fairfield county for western riding, and caters to all levels of experience. The staff are all knowledgeable, experienced in riding and animal care. I've had trail rides and lessons here, and have grown a lot as a rider. Atmosphere is very casual and kid friendly, absolutely love this place.

I went to Gold Rush Farms with my fiance to take a lesson and a trail ride. During my lesson the instructor was not only extremely knowledgeable, but also made me feel at ease seeing as I do not have much riding experience! And the trail ride was just the icing on the cake. It was so beautiful and Roy, the horse I was riding, was just so sweet! Not to mention the gorgeous Spring views! My fiance and I had such a wonderful time. I also was so thrilled to learn that all of the guided trail rides were private, which is something that other places I have done trail riding at have not offered. We will definitely be visiting Gold Rush Farms on a regular basis!
