5 out of 5 stars

My daughter enjoyed the Mini camp at Windmill Stables. They did activities like getting the horse ready, riding the horse and feeding the horses a special meal which the horses and the kids enjoyed. They got to paint rocks and horseshoes and eat their snack. I definitely recommend this experience for horseback riders!
