Cunningham Cabin

Reviewed By dreamspeaker - Middleton, United States

We were driving by on the highway and saw horses in the field and a little pullout, so we thought we'd stop and look at the horses a while and realized that we could drive back to a parking area and see a historic cabin and walk a little trail to the field. I think partly because of the horses (we love animals) and the gorgeous setting, this is actually my favorite place that we stopped in the Grand Tetons area. It is not very busy and I felt like it was just me and my family on a mountain ranch. Really nice place. I would spend lots of time here if it weren't so far from home for me.

Heart 6 Ranch Horseback Riding

Horseback Riding: From a two hour ride to a full day, experience the majestic beauty of Bridger-Teton National Forest with amazing views of Grand Teton National Park. Heart 6 can handle large groups as well as small private events.

Reviewed By tripfunnow - Atlanta, United States

Looking for a convenient and efficient way to both float the Snake and horseback ride? Then we highly recommend booking the Combo float/horseback ride at the Heart 6. It is a short 30-45 minute scenic drive from Jackson, then you can park the car once and embark on both outstanding trips right from the ranch. Including us, 6 people started around 9 am on the float trip that winds directly in front of the majestic Tetons, with views from every angle. There are many great photo ops on this trip. While we did not see wildlife, we saw many birds (eagles and ospreys) and learned many archeological facts about the river and mountains. The float trip including travel time was about 3 hours and our guide was FANTASTIC! After a good lunch at the ranch, we walked to the corral for our 130 pm trail ride up the mountain for more spectacular views of the Tetons. The wranglers were also top notch with both who accompanied us on the trail being very experienced horsewomen. We set our own pace as luckily no one else joined us for this ride. That must be an anomaly as on return to the barn a group of about 20 was preparing to ride. The trail ride was about 2 hours, so there was still plenty of time to get back to Jackson and shower before dinner. I think if we tried to float/ride any other place it would take 2 days to do it because of the wasted time driving from place to place. Again, this was a terrific way to do both!
