Best horseback riding!!
Jacob's Ranch的点评
点评：⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
10/5 stars, would give more if at all humanly possible. If you love horses, adventure, and you’re looking for something more personalized and exciting than your typical, run of the mill, nose to tail trail ride with a walking only policy, you NEED to go here. Ignore any old reviews about the process of making phone reservations because the reviews initially freaked me out a little bit too, but the communication from start to finish could not have been better. The owner-operator, Josh, is thoughtful, personable, and passionate about making sure he has as much information as possible to tailor the experience to your expectations and comfort level.
Josh has a diverse range of horses suited for many different types of riders. He intuitively selects a handful of horses for the riders to choose from, after giving everyone the opportunity to meet and connect with each horse and introducing the horses’ unique personalities, strengths, and quirks. Once you’ve matched with your horse, he teaches some basic horsemanship and you get the opportunity to groom and saddle your horse, and you spend some time in the pen doing ground work and becoming familiar with how to communicate with your horse if you’re an inexperienced rider. Having some prior experience, we spent less time in the pen and did a short ride around the property to get a feel for the horses on home terrain before heading out onto BLM land.
Josh was flexible and gracious enough to book us for a half day on Sunday afternoon, on relatively short notice, because my husband and I were celebrating our seventh wedding anniversary and we drove down from Utah county and back that same night. We got to the ranch around 12:30pm and returned to the ranch from the ride around 7pm. My husband, who is less experienced and confident about horseback riding than me, picked Boots, who was totally sweet, reliable, and perfectly matched my husband’s energy. I picked Gandalf, who looms at a giant 17.4 hands, because I wanted a more athletically challenging ride and Gandalf majorly delivered. Having really only done arena work with trotting and brief moments of cantering on much smaller horses, this was a whole new ball game, but it was SO fun. Once we hit BLM land, we meandered; galloped; went up, down, and around some steep terrain; and also took a couple of much needed water/shade breaks. Beyond the riding itself, Stashia, Travis, and Josh were great social company and it was a lot of fun spending time with them and listening to their stories. Josh has impressive photography skills while loping, and he captured awesome videos and pictures on my phone.
As we were headed back, I threw out a crazy last minute request to take some pictures on Gandalf in my wedding dress and everyone was super enthusiastic and supportive even though it was late in the day. Luckily, 7:15 was golden hour and the photos turned out shockingly well, despite the fact that my hair had become a sweaty, wind tangled mess and I had to towel off the sweat and dirt from the ride before pulling off the most delicate, quick change into my wedding dress in the back of my car. Josh was so patient and walked Gandalf around the pasture for some pictures. It was the most memorable anniversary experience for both me and my husband.
You will definitely not regret your decision to ride with Josh and his team at Jacob’s Ranch. I’ve ridden horses in Maui, Costa Rica, Mexico, and all around the states. I’ve ridden camels in the Gobi Desert, sailed with dolphins, kayaked with breaching whales and whale sharks in Baja California Sur, fed mouse deer in Malaysia, held baby pandas at a sanctuary in China, fed elephants in Thailand… but hands down, Jacob’s Ranch tops any animal experience that I have ever had in my life. Even if you don’t personally like horses yourself, I hope you read this review and recommend this place to anyone you know who *does* like horses, and I promise they will have the time of their lives!!

满分10分，真要是能给更多分我也愿意！如果你热爱马术与冒险，又想体验比普通、千篇一律且只允许慢步骑行的马术之旅更独特、更刺激的经历，那绝对应该来这里。那些关于电话预订流程的旧评论可以不用理会——其实一开始这些评论也让我有些担心，但实际上从始至终的沟通都非常顺畅、完美。店主兼骑术指导员乔希为人体贴、亲切，他竭尽全力收集各种信息，以确保能根据每位骑手的期望与舒适度来定制专属体验。
乔希拥有各类马匹，适合不同水平的骑手。在让每位骑手都有机会与马儿们亲近互动，并了解它们各自的性格特点、优势与独特之处后，他会凭直觉挑选出几匹马供大家选择。当你与心仪的马匹配对成功后，它会教你一些基本的骑术。作为初学者，你可以给马梳理毛发、装上马鞍，还能在围栏内进行地面训练，逐步学会如何与马沟通。由于我们已有一些骑马经验，因此没在围栏里花费太多时间，而是绕着场地短暂骑行了一番，以便熟悉马匹在熟悉环境中的表现，之后才前往BLM管理的区域。Josh非常通情达理且热情周到，在接到我们的请求后不久就为我们安排了周日下午半天的骑马体验。当时我和丈夫正在庆祝结婚七周年纪念日，我们从犹他县驱车前往，当晚又返回。我们中午12点半左右抵达牧场，骑马结束后于晚上7点左右回到牧场。我的丈夫虽然骑马经验不如我丰富，也没我那么自信，但他挑选了名叫Boots的那匹马——它真是温顺又可靠啊。这匹马的气质与我丈夫的个性完美契合。我选择了甘道夫——它体型庞大，肩高竟达17.4掌！因为我想要一次更具运动挑战性的骑乘体验，而甘道夫也绝对没有让我失望。此前我只在围场里骑过体型小得多的马匹，也只是在上面做过些慢步与短时间的慢跑训练，这次的体验完全是全新的，但真的太有趣了！进入BLM管理的土地后，我们时而漫步、时而疾驰；在陡峭的地形中上上下下、迂回穿行；当然也适时停下来喝水、在阴凉处歇息一下——那些时刻真是太需要了。除了骑马本身，斯塔西亚、特拉维斯和乔希都是非常棒的伙伴。和他们待在一起、听他们讲故事真的乐趣无穷。乔希在骑马时还拥有出色的摄影技巧，他用我的手机拍下了许多精彩的视频和照片。
返程时，我临时提出了一个有些疯狂的请求——想穿着婚纱在甘道夫背上拍些照片。尽管当时已经很晚了，但大家都热情满满且全力支持。幸运的是……7点15分正是黄金时刻，拍出来的照片效果出奇地好。尽管那时我的头发被汗水和风搅得乱成一团，我不得不先用毛巾擦去身上的汗水和骑行时沾上的尘土，然后在车后座上迅速换上婚纱。乔希极其耐心，还牵着甘道夫在草地上转圈，帮我拍照。这对我和丈夫来说，都是最难忘的周年纪念经历。你绝对不会后悔决定和乔希及其团队一起在雅各布牧场骑马。我曾在毛伊岛、哥斯达黎加、墨西哥以及美国各地骑过马。我还在戈壁沙漠里骑过骆驼，在下加利福尼亚州与海豚一同航行，划皮划艇时目睹了鲸鱼和鲸鲨跃出水面。在马来西亚，我喂过鼷鹿；在中国的保护区里，我抱过熊猫幼崽；在泰国，我还喂过大象……但毫无疑问，雅各布牧场的体验是我一生中所经历过的最棒的与动物互动的体验。即使你自己并不喜欢马，我也希望你能读完这篇评论，并把这个地方推荐给任何喜欢马的朋友。我保证他们一定会度过一生中最愉快的时光！！
