Horsespring Farm

Reviewed By Engle55 - Oslo, Norway

Lorraine is really special! Such love for her horses, skillful and great eye for details. She taught my daughter to ride «western» style with simple and clear messages. Lorraine’s horses are very well trained, kind and well behaved. Perfect as riding horses even for inexperienced riders. Our 10 year old has quite a bit of riding experience and after showing Lorraine how she connected with and rode «Paddy», she was gradually given more challanges by Lorraine. This was totally different to our other riding experiences in the USA - where the overemphasis on safety seem to kill most of the challange, fun and enjoyment with these beautiful animals. Our only regret was that we didn’t bring more money. We booked a 1 hour ride, but had so much fun that time flew. If she has time, the horses are not to tired or warm and you bring some extra cash, there is a good chance you can get an Extended riding experience. Thank you so much Lorraine ❤️❤️❤️ Alva and Haakon

Lake Wailes Park

Reviewed By lspez - Chicago, United States

We walk this lake several times a week. Nice paved path along a beautiful lake. We see birds and turtles. The only problem is a few dog owners let their dogs off leash. They are a far distance from owners, and also noticed they don’t pick up after their dog So just be ready for the possibility of dogs running free
