“Fun for little kids”

Reviewed 31 March 2013

We took my son to the Land of Little Horses and he loved the horses. They are such sweet, friendly animals. He's just 1 and they were nuzzling him and responding well to him petting them softly. And the horses and animals are well taken care of, and the lady who was doing the show was very good with them,... More

“Nice for a local outing”

Reviewed 11 November 2012

We took my 5 year old daughter here because she loves horses. We do not live too far away, so it was a 1/2 day trip. We were amused by the small horse and donkey that followed us around. The show was very low-budget, but my daughter was entertained and I was amazed by the hosre that could do math.... More

“Makes you feel sorry for the poor things.”

Reviewed 18 October 2012

The place seems run down, the animals exploited and made to do silly, pointless tricks. The whole place has no purpose. It was embarassing, even for the young ones.

Although we strive to do our best to provide a fun, clean, and educational experience for every guest that enters our park, we do realize that the same things that appeal to most do not appeal to all. We regret that you felt as you did about our park but our animals are treated with the greatest of care and... More

This was our third visit. My three year old daughter has developed a love of horses thanks to this place. These gentle little creatures will warm your heart and feed your spirit. I can't imagine anyone not liking this place. The owner really cares about providing her guests with a memorable, enriching and heart warming experience. I only wish we... More

“great time”

Reviewed 16 September 2012

Just took my grandson there & he loved it. Everyone was extremely friendly. The animals performed great & it appears to me that they are very well cared for. I love the fact that they rescue dogs from the humane society. I have been going there since my children were small & now I take the grandkids. Perfect sunday afternoon.!... More

“Always a favorite”

Reviewed 12 September 2012

This is a great place to take your horsey kids. It is definately geared to elementary and below. A bit expensive and the gift shop is cheesy but my tween still had fun.

“Must do for young kids”

Reviewed 10 September 2012

This is a slightly pricey attraction ($13 for adults, $11 for kids, plus $5 for a cup of food to feed the animals), but it is well worth it and you can frequently find Groupons or other coupons online that make it even MORE worth it. Lots of animals to pet (not just miniature horses). Admission includes several educational activities... More

We actually went twice this summer since my daughter loved it so much. She loves horses but also enjoyed seeing the pigs, peacocks, goats, sheep, you name it! She enjoyed grooming the little horses and was thrilled to win the stick horse race. Our son loved when the animals were shown in barn too. The show was adorable! Really like... More

Our heartfelt thanks for such a kind and detailed review. So many guests that make their first visit here are so pleasantly surprised by what meets them on the "other side of the fence". Although most feel that we are catered to the youngsters we seem to have many "grown-ups" without children that enjoyed their visit because of the simplicity... More
