We had a wonderful time riding at Blue Bell Stables. We paid $30 for an hour long ride which to me was worth it. You can find coupons in brochures and also deals on Custer Lodge websites. I have ridden on many occasions and this was one of the most adventurous rides I have been on. The trail leads up... More

The staff paired you with just the right horse, I felt comfortable right out of the gate, the guides were informative and knowledgeable of the history of the landscape and gave you tips along the trail to manage your horse just right, from wanting to graze to lagging behind. I truly enjoyed this ride and trail from the start to... More

We really loved Custer State Park, and horseback riding was a great way to really get to see more of the it.... More

Went on a 2-hour morning ride while my hubby hiked Harney Peak. My horse, Abby, was the last in the line and sometimes wanted to go her own way. Aside from that, it was a pleasant 2 hours. Glad I had my hat & sunscreen on. We saw deer. Was really sore the next few days since I wasn't used... More

Some of the group were late because they got lost but the staff waited very patiently. The group included a 6 and 9 yr old and they all loved it!

It made our trip to Custer State Park even more special. We... More
