Lone Butte Ranch Stable

Un buen sitio para cabalgar un buen rato

Really wanted to horse back ride while in Santa Fe. Called Russ and he made it work for a sunset ride for my friends and I. Made sure our directions were accurate and set us up on the best horses. The property and trail are stunning. It was everything I dreamed! Thanks for the magical memory!

Had a great ride through the property and enjoyed the horses as we completed the sunset excursion. He gave our horses great names, mine was Death Trap, which I assumed meant he was a pinto.

Really awesome time! Spur of the moment we booked the sunset ride and it was great! Russ was very funny and entertaining and the horses were so well behaved that it was smooth going for beginners like us! Not a challenging path but still a highlight of the trip, the location and company was really something special.

Russ with Lone Butte Stable is the coolest. I was visiting the area and staying in Madrid for my 30th birthday and Mother’s Day and decided to treat myself to a sunset ride with Russ. Not only was he friendly and accommodating but also a wonderful conversationalist and took photos for me as well as I was traveling alone and he made sure I got one I liked. I have some riding experience and Russ was able to incorporate that into the ride and made sure I had a great time and was comfortable at all times. The ranch is beautiful and the horses sweet and I will be recommending Lone Butte to all my friends visiting the area. My trip wouldn’t have been the same had I of not stopped and done the sunset ride.

Highly recommend the sunset ride!! Such a wonderful time with wonderful views. We both had very limited riding experience but our guides gave us great instruction so we felt very safe and comfortable. They made sure we had waters and even took photos for us! At one point we all got off the horses and and sat up on a rocky hill and took in the views:)

We had a great time with Russ at Lone Butte Ranch. This would have been my first time on horseback but everything seemed really tight and well maintained. Russ has some cool stories about show business and his family's history on the ranch. If you're in the area I'd recommend giving him a call.
