Horse Trails:We are 15 minutes to the Wildcat Mt. State Park which is #1 in horse trails. In 2008 we expect to have horse trails on adjoining lands. Kickapoo Valley Reserve is also nearby for horse trails.  See "Area Attractions" for more trails.

Can we walk in the woods?

We hope you do and enjoy the splendor of nature.  However, there are not any groomed paths, only deer trails. Be cautious. 

Rules in the Woods:

• Please observe fence lines and do not trespass “over” them.
• Please leave the woods and its fragile environment as is and don’t leave anything behind when you leave.
• Be an observer.  Watch and Learn.
• Enter the woods with caution.  The animals are wild. There are lots of rocks, trees, hills, steep banks and natural stumbling blocks, so please go slowly.
• No jumping off rocks and boulders.
• Understand that you are liable for yourself and your children.
• Remember that the outdoors is a wonderful photo shoot setting.
