Old Family Farm Trail Rides

Old Family Farm Trail Rides We are a guided trail ride business located near the Lake of the Ozarks. Our horses are all BLM Must We have a passion for the American Mustang.
(207)

Our hope is to provide a home and job for as many Mustangs as we can. In order to do this we need a job for them so they can help pay for their care. We have the Family Farm in Macks Creek MO. It grows rocks and trees not much grass. What better way to earn the money for their care then to offer trail rides to those on vacation at the Lake of the Ozarks. We are just minutes from Camdenton MO. We o

ffer half hour rides, hour rides, and pony rides. We also take wild mustangs, gentle them and find adopters for them. So when you come and ride one of our mustangs you are helping support not only the horse you are riding but other mustangs being gentled in preparation for their new homes.

I want to thank everyone who has visited us this year. I have enjoyed meeting so many people from different backgrounds and introducing a number of people to the joy of taking a ride on horseback.
Thank you all for a good season.

As we start thinking about our 2024 season (hopefully opening around the 15th of March) I want to share some of the losses we have had in the last 2 months.
First we lost Diamond Gem at the end of November due to health issues. We bred and raised him, he gave us 22 years of fun times. He was full of personality and you could always count on him leading the way into trouble. His favorite pastime was to open gates and feed bins faster than you could call his name. Due to his personality we didn't use him for a customer horse very often, so if you got to ride him, you are one of a few. He was mostly a guide horse and my mount more than anything else. I'll miss his quirky personality everyday.
Two months almost to the day we laid my wonderful companion, and greeter for Old Family Farm Trail Rides, Koda to rest. She was the best dog ever. If you came to our place she greeted you. I'll miss her greatly.

Meet our horses

We have a passion for wild Mustangs, “America’s Living Legend”. Almost all our horses were born in the wild, we have adopted and trained them ourselves and they show the clam, quiet nature that can be found in the wild herds. We started our trail ride business in order to give jobs to as many as we can, to help others learn more about the wild mustangs in America, and help find more homes for the many deserving mustangs just waiting to become some ones best friend. When you come take a ride on one of our mustangs you are helping us to feed and support not only our horses but mustangs that we may have in training so others can adopt a gentled mustang.

Arapaho is a palomino pinto born in 2011, captured from the Little Owyhee HMA (Herd Management Area) of NV in Dec of 2012. We adopted him out of the Hutchinson KS holding facility in August of 2013. He is 15hh so can take most riders and is one of our best kid or new nervous rider horses. Very little upsets him he stays calm and steady. He will take advantage of his rider and snack along the trail if he can, he is also what we call our “Short cut King” . Why follow the trail when I can save a few steps by taking a short cut. Arapaho knows how to bow, give kisses, and shake hands He loves to do these tricks for his riders.

Bandana is a sorrel and white pinto born in 2010, captured from the Little Owyhee HMA, NV. in Dec of 2012. We adopted him out of the Hutchinson KS holding facility in June of 2013. Bandana is about 14.1hhjust right for our lighter riders. He does take a rider with a little more skill, he can get a little excited if one of the other horses misbehaves, he has been known to try and head back to the house with out the rest of the horses. He tends to be a loner out in the pasture but if he decides he wants some thing he will get it, he can make the others back off. He can be a fun horse to ride for those with a little experience, but will also take good care of a novice.

Klondike Gold is a buckskin pinto born in 2009. He was captured in Jan of 2010 from the Granite Range HMA, NV. We adopted him out of the Hutchinson KS holding facility in Aug of 2013. Klondike is 15hh and is suitable for most rider sizes. He is as good as gold hence his name. I was riding him two weeks after we brought him home. He has power steering , awesome reverse, and is clam and mellow. If you are a good rider he will be a joy to ride. If you have never been on a horse before he will make you feel like you know what you are doing. However he is a snacker on the trail. If you let him he will eat the whole time he is out. He doesn’t get mad if you stop him nor is it very hard to stop him from grazing but you can count on him trying to get a bite.
