Great Experience, Great Staff, Great Day!! Every contact with Cedar Creek was friendly & helpful! On our BIG DAY, the staff was very helpful and accommodating to our big group of "Green Horns." The day could not have gone better!

Our second experience

Dolly and Warren Uhl, Easley SC

Today was the second time we visited the Stables. We had a great experience. There was nothing wrong to say about it. The tour guides were great, the guy at the beginning explaining the rules was great. We highly recommend them. You won't be disappointed.

Best horse back riding with Mary Beth

Tara Sasse, Statesville North Carolina

Mary Beth was great I called a couple times to make reservations and she was very accommodating . She is the best tour guide ever and we will definitely return again. My sister and niece and I had the best time ever. I highly recommend if you want to go horseback riding see Marybeth at Cedar Creek Stables

Great day. Staff is great. Mary Beth was our guide and she was outstanding. Treated us great and felt like we were with family. Will be back on our trip in October.

Awesome ride with awesome ladies!

Arlene Parr, Clarks Hill, SC

From start to finish a GRRREAT EXPERIENCE!!! Six of us made a special trip to Lake Lure, NC just for this ride! Of course we packed in a lot more things to do too!!! But the reason and one of the best highlights of our trip was on horseback! We rode thru creeks and streams and mountains with awesome views! If you’re ever in this area and live horses then take this ride! You will NOT regret it!

The ONLY Riding Stable You Want!

Diane Embach, Hendersonville

I have been here twice with visitors from out of state and yesterday with my husband. The experience from start to finish is simply unforgettable. The scenery and the staff make this the only choice I will make for future trips and the only stable I’ll recommend to everyone. Huge thanks to Taylor & Mary Beth, their hearts & souls are in their jobs & their love of the horses & property shines through!

Great trail ride!

Kim B., Greer, SC

Sunday 3/31/19 -Had a great afternoon horse ride at Cedar Creek Stables! It’s reasonably priced, not too far from our home, has sweet horses and helpful staff to make you feel comfortable riding. This was our 2nd time and we will go back.

my favorite ride

ashley , edmond, ok

i, an experienced rider, went with two people who had never rode alone, let alone in the mountains. we all three thoroughly enjoyed it. it was a very easy ride with amazing scenery. the people were all very friendly. the other group that rode with us had school age children and they did great too. i highly recommend this ride. it was on of my favorites out of seven states and hundreds of rides.
