Double J Riding Stables & Horseman's Campground

We had an amazing time during our ride this past weekend. You can tell these people truly love their horses and treat them like their own kids. From the moment we arrived we felt so welcomed and apart of the “Farmily”. Courtney was a great guide! We were lucky enough to be the last ride of the day and got to help desaddle our horses! Dave & Rocky are the kind of people you want to give your business to! We cannot wait to come back.

I was lucky when I called to book for a trail ride the following day! (Be sure to plan ahead if you have a bigger group!) Rocky and Dave are both so wonderful, and you can tell by how spirited and happy their horses all are. Our guide was so much fun, and I could tell the little girls at the front were having a blast! Learn the origin story of some of the horses, there's some fun ones! I also felt lucky to get to ride the horse named Morgan. She was fun and sassy, kept wanting to sneak snacking on the trail (we were told to not let them do this) and definitely wanted to race ahead whenever we were trotting. It was a fun and more active ride than I was expecting -but secretly hoped for-. The land was so gorgeous, and the trail made for a really easy-going ride, and it's so much fun to just let the horses do what they know best and watch them as it is to see the dense forest! I'm definitely planning on coming back to use their campgrounds. I wish I lived closer!

We did a hour trail ride with them, and it was amazing. The owner and his wife were great. They explained everything introduced us to our trail guide and were there to help all the way until we rode off. Our trail guide was great too. The trail itself is beautiful. When you get to the turn around point you wish you could keep going. If we had more time in Kentucky we would visit them again. We will definitely come back next time we come. Highly recommend them for new or experienced riders. Queenie is one of the biggest horses I've seen and of course they put me on her lol. She was great though. So was Morgan that my wife rode.

A great experience! The staff were very knowledgeable and helpful, the horses are definitely well taken care of, and the stable and trails were beautiful. It was a fun and relaxing time, great for riders of all experiences. We got there a little early before our trail ride and they let us spend time with the horses in the stable before taking off. Definitely recommend!

Ranch owners Dave and Rocky will treat you like family upon your arrival, so we encourage you to prepare to fall completely in love with your entire adventure at the stables! This is not a tourist trap experience, but just like you walked out your backdoor onto a working farm. The horses are loved, given ample rest periods between rides, and groups are kept small for a personalized experience. After your ride you can enjoy a walk around the stalls and greet the horses as they munch on their mounds of hay. Each horse has such a distinct personality, but all are delicate and docile, making your experience inside and outside of the barn safe and enjoyable. If horses make you anxious, don’t fret, as Dave and Rocky have successfully won over even the most terrified of riders to secure them safely on a horse that fits their personality, and by the time the trail ride is over, they are bonded with their horse and ready for a second round! You will have an overall fantastic experience and enjoy the wonderful guides that take you through the trails of Mammoth Cave National Park. Bring your own horses and set up your RV, or if you don't have your own horses, stay in the Bunk House and take a guided ride, or come for the day and enjoy a guided horseback ride. We can't wait to see you there!
