Trail Ride - Great time all around. Staff was nice and friendly. Horses were well trained. They stayed in line and you could just sit and enjoy the ride. Great trail ride overall.

Great experience - The ride and the wrangler and guides were great. Had a terrible time finding it tho. No signage so I went past it several times.

Best horse ride ever! - We love horseback riding when we are on vacation. So we are still beginners. Our tour guide was very sensitive to our needs and we took the horses on a 2 hour walk which was just perfect! The trail through the park was beautiful. The horses were very gentle and responded well to us.

Unfair - I google searched “catalina island horseback riding and popped up was horseback riding at catalina state park. I booked it Not knowing it was not the same place and once i realized after booking i started making phone calls to cancel. I called “Rancho de los Cerros” direct and the man i spoke with told me there was a 7 day refund/ cancelation policy even tho online it says 24 hours to cancel and get full refund, any ways he just told me good luck and hung up on me. VERY DISAPPOINTED ABOUT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE.
