Guided Horseback Rides at Triple L Trail Ranch

At Huron House, we love to connect our guests with vacation adventures they might not otherwise try — things like sailing, kiteboarding and sport fishing. If you've never been horseback riding, you should plan a visit to Triple L Trail Ranch in Tawas City during your next getaway to the Sunrise Side of Michigan. This horse ranch offers guided trail rides that will take you through some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the region. Whether you're a first-timer or even a seasoned rider, the team at Triple L Trail Ranch will gladly share their passion for these magnificent animals with you.

Owners Jay and Laurel Greene have cared for and owned horses for most of their lives. The ultimate goal of their family-run Triple L Trail Ranch is to build a connection between people and horses. When you make your appointment for either a beginner or advanced trail ride, they'll personally see that your North Michigan trail riding adventure is top-notch! Every rider is matched to the horse and trails best suited for their skill level to ensure the most ideal experience possible. The horses themselves are well-trained and well-cared for, so you can be confident that you're riding a healthy and happy animal.

The best part of this horseback riding excursion is the relaxation you'll enjoy while on the trail and the stunning natural scenery you'll get to see from a unique vantage point. For beginners, there's a short and easy trail that takes you through the ranch's pastures and allows you to get comfortable on horseback. More experienced riders can opt for longer and more challenging trails that take you through dense forests and along the shores of Lake Huron.

Several times a year, Triple L Trail Ranch hosts Open Ranch Days. These are perfect opportunities to come meet the ranch owners and their beautiful horses, enjoy a bonfire and hot cocoa, take part in games and raffles, and more. The events raise funds for Palomino Hope, the ranch's nonprofit project that brings kids who have suffered trauma, illness or poverty together with horses in an effort to improve their quality of life.

Triple L Trail Ranch is an excellent destination for anyone who loves the great outdoors and wants to explore the beauty of Michigan's countryside. Make plans to saddle up for a trail-riding adventure during your next getaway to Lake Huron's coast. Tip: When you're packing for your stay at Huron House and planning a horseback riding session, be sure to pack jeans or long pants and a pair of boots with a firm sole.
