Called Peggy, arrainged a half day ride, WOW, Fom the time we arrived till we left GREAT service. Our guide was a young horsewoman from a ranch in Montana, what a sweetheart she was, told us all about the area, showed us wildlife and great views of Crazy Horse the ride was well worth the price. If your in the Custer Area call the Rockin R Ranch If i wasnt old and retired, and from chicago, i would get a job with Peggy and Randy

Hollingsworth Horses offers horseback riding on our outstandingly beautiful 122 acre ranch, Mickelson Trail and the Black Hills National Forest. We offer unguided and guided depending on riding skills. Choosing the riding times and length of your ride separates us from other riding attractions and we are the only establishment offering unguided rides!

A 2 hour ride for the family was the highlight of our trip to SD! Mercy was a great guide, kept it interesting, and our 8 year remarked on the drive home "He really wanted to make sure we had a great time." The 125 acre property had lots of hidden gems, the horses were great and well cared for. Would definitely recommend to all riding experience levels, we had a decent amount of experience and wanted a different experience than the nose-to-tail rides, and this is it! Mercy checks out your ability, and you get some reasonable "freedom" while out on the ride (if you want). Attaching a few pictures to show how varied the terrain is. We highly recommend!!!!

We enjoyed an awe inspired sleigh ride with horses. Andy went above and beyond to accommodate our large group with 2 horse drawn sleighs and 8 horses. Complete with a fire and hot chocolate. We were blessed with a snowfall. One of our Best Christmas's!!

What a great experience for my family and I. We are beginner horse riders (my wife and I, children ages 14, 11, and 6) and Tammy and Wyatt took great care of us. Tammy outfitted us and helped us on our horses (Mud, Molly, Sadie, Skylar, and Boomer). Wyatt led us on a two hour ride. The trails were not difficult to navigate. The sights along the trails were amazing. Wyatt was fantastic. He taught us about our horses, their personalities and how to handle each based on their traits. He gave us some insight to the area and shared a little about his life. We saw at least four deer during our ride with lots of birds, squirrels and rabbits along the way. Max the dog walked the whole trip. Helmuts are required for children under 12 and optional for everyone else. It was a great two hour ride and we'd recommend T&M Trail Rides to anyone.

Riding stable for adults and kids over age 4.
Reviewed By OrcasIslady - Deer Harbor, United States
The first thing I noticed was how clean the stables were-no offensive odor-although I love the smell of horses-and no flies to speak of. The black flies can get nasty. It may have been because we were there in mid June but the horses were not really bothered with them, even on the trail. The horses themselves were well trained and cared for. It was a very efficient operation with plenty of help around. We did the half day ride and our guides- Jordan and Bridget-were lovely young ladies who made the ride both interesting and fun. The trails meander through meadow and woods with small inclines and several water crossings. We came across 2 bull bison along the way. The horses handled all of it with ease. I used to ride the French Creek trails with my own horses many years ago so remember how beautiful it is and it did not disappoint this time either. I would highly recommend this stable if you are looking to experience Custer State Park on the back of a horse. No matter your experience level.
