Reviews for this vacation guesthouse rental in Ellicottville, New York
Hi Alice -
I just wanted to let you know that Olivia and I had a great time this past weekend with Troop #804. I was truly, truly pleased with your team and your approach to teaching the girls about horse safety and enjoyment. Olivia was so bonded with you, the girls, and the horses - like I've never seen before. She cried so long and hard when she returned home. I keep telling her that's a sign that she had a great time.
Take care and thank you again for all of your time energy and love for the kids!

I would consider myself a well seasoned traveler. After ten years in the military, I think I have visited some true hidden wonders.... Nestled just slightly of the beten path lies a horse lovers dream. With a little work, great meals, a wonderful staff, and a true ranch experience this place tops the charts of things to do. If you are looking to enjoy some great animals, learn more about, or brush up on your horse etiquette this is the place to do so.
Alice is a wonderful instructor for all levels of riders. As I sat back and watch her give instruction to a wide variety of riders from children to matured adults at various riding levels it helped me to analyze my riding skills and become a better rider.
Her staff, a few well seasoned handlers and some young but matured beyond belief hands, were very outgoing to please the guest, I found very knowledgeable and helpful on and off the trail. While riding they did everything to ensure your comfort and safety. While tending to the horses, they were the extra hands when your two were tied up. And in down time they knew just how to bring out the fun of living on the ranch.
The horses were marvelous from the gentlest giant to the most loving little foal, they varied in attitude and demeanor, no two horses were exactly alike there was something there for everyone from a pleasant ride to a challenge just to see how good you are.
The rooms were exactly what you would see on a ranch. No plush modern amenities, no pay as you go TV, and no outlandish tile floors and marble counter tops, just cabin style living with cozy rooms in a warm setting.
The meals were great all home cooked nothing over seasoned or overcooked but exactly what you needed to keep you going for the work at hand.
This place is to me is a kiss from heaven.
To Alice and your staff, "Ride Easy!"
Respectfully Yours steve "Cowboy"

We misssed everyone & everthing as soon as we drove away!!

You take an unexpected turn down a country driveway to a nearly idyllic setting, a small grove of trees, an expansive, verdent pasture and a grandly gated corral of horses, only to find a simplar way of life where everyone's family and everyone has to help out.
Let me explain, I went to the barn expecting to saddle up and go on a trail ride. As soon as I got there and to my surprise, I was given a bucket with grooming tools. Why, the horse I was given had mud all over it and since I barely groomed a horse before, I gladly excepted the challenge.
Just one thing, I remember my brother telling me about the disfigurement of his mouth, because you guessed it! he did something stupid! and the horse kicked him in the mouth. Needless to say, he received a lot of stitches, so, to alay my fears the lovely owner Ms.
Alice helped me brush the under belly and inner parts of the legs. I'm so used to English saddle, I didn't dare say anything about the Western saddle except, could she help me with the strap so it's tight enough and it won't slip off to the side.
The trail ride sure was muddy but, not too tretcherous under the direction of our very young guide who did a wonderful job making our up and down, very rooty and rocky, somewhat narrow passage a fun experience. Yes! the stream was great fun too, honestly, I felt like I was in a Western movie looking for gold or someone.
Well, the truth of the matter is I've been a teacher for so long I almost forgot what it was like to be a kid again. For those wishing to rejuvinate their youthful spirit, this experience is definately the ticket to healing the spirit in so many ways more than just the riding, for example, visiting the Amish, the Cheesefactory, etc.
