Pfeiffer Riding Stables: Reviews from families visiting Pfeiffer Riding Stables. As we drove down the driveway to Pfeiffer Riding Stables, my six year old daughter screeched with delight every time we passed a horse; she had been grinning ear to ear at the thought of spending the morning on a farm surrounded by horses ever since I told her the plan for the day. However, to be honest, I came to Pfeifer Riding Stables with a bit of apprehension about horseback riding after a somewhat terrifying trail ride in Costa Rica. I’m happy to report that both my expectations and my daughters were far exceeded by the friendly staff, horses, and farm animals at Pfeiffer Riding Stables. THE FARM We arrived a bit early to Pfeiffer Riding Stables. As everyone was rushing around readying the horses and making sure that all the farm animals were where they should be, the farm dogs Roscoe and Lucy greeted us enthusiastically. We immediately felt at home. Both my kids took off to check out the farm animals and play on an old set of play equipment, which the owner assured me was to be replaced with a new set and a bounce house by summertime. Pfeiffer Riding Stables isn’t just a great destination for kids old enough to ride a horse; it’s a fun place for anyone old enough to pet and appreciate farm animals. Later after our trail ride, the owner of the farm showed us all the animals from the bunnies to the miniature horses. No doubt, one of the highlights of the morning was when the kids had the opportunity to play with one of the miniature horses. The horse happily ran around with the kids like an over-size dog. Despite having a zoo membership and a pet dog, I think my kids learned more about connecting with and caring for animals in their morning at the farm than they ever had before. TRAIL RIDE Four teenagers took me and my two young children on a one hour trail ride. While we weren’t riding on the beach or enjoying any distinctively spectacular landscapes, the ride through the forest was relaxing, and we did get a few glimpses of Kings Creek along the way. The teenage guides were happy to share with me everything they knew about life in Cape Charles; they were well-spoken, polite and professional. By the end of the morning, my kids wanted to grow up to be just like the teenagers that rode horseback with them. All the horses the kids and I rode on were exceptionally gentle and well trained. Not once did these horses remind me of my stubborn horse from Costa Rica. CARRIAGE RIDES We were scheduled to have a carriage ride through town the night before our trail ride, but it was canceled due to thunderstorms. The guides told me that often on a nice summer night; the carriage will be out and about in the town of Cape Charles available for rides. I would not hesitate to take a carriage ride from Pfeiffer Riding Stables; they obviously care for their animals’ health and manage their workload responsibly. CONCLUSION Pfeiffer Riding Stables is a family-friendly place to enjoy animals with your children. The animals on the farm are well-trained, gentle and great around children. It’s a great place to have a first horseback riding experience. Disclosure: My children and I were given a complimentary trail ride for the purpose of this review. I received no other compensation and the opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own.
