OPENING DAY

Spring is in the air and that means it’s time for some trail riding! Visit Midwest Trail Ride for their opening day. Please call for more information!

A note from the owners of Midwest Trail Ride:
Our reservation office will be staffed, but our store will remain closed during the mandatory “house arrest” (quarantine period). This gives us extra time to clean and sanitize (even though no one has been here yet) our shower house, activities hall & cabins.
