Will and Dawn you were awesome on the horses the scenery was beautiful. Can’t wait to see the 2nd part. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@michaelpaulsministry]

The Horse Back Riding I love because I love horses and I have ridden a horse before. 😎💖✌️

[@smokymountainman4964]

That was alot of fun. You did very well Will for never riding a horse before. We went horseback riding in the smokies at 5 Oaks. It was alot of fun and the views were incredible. Thanks for taking us along on another good adventure.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

It's definitely a good experience 😌

[@JoyceL5730]

That was a fun adventure! Glad someone suggested it!

[@lizpunzalan4902]

So glad you enjoyed yourself and rode some nice horses. I HHS even been blessed to have horses all my life.

[@wynonastroud6525]

That certainly looked like a nice ride

[@ActuallyAnxious]

Today me and my family went to this place and we went horseback riding. I also got Poseidon! He was a bit difficult to work with but I still loved the ride! my sister got a horse named Whiskey and the guide came up to her and said "Your not 21 how'd you get Whiskey?" Which I thought was super funny. My cousin got a horse named Distraction and my mom got a horse named Adam. We had to stop the ride a couple times because Distraction whirled around in the middle of it. You really didn't need all this extra information but I really enjoyed this place and I really needed somewhere to rant about it. thank you for your time!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Wow thank you for sharing your review with us 😊 sounds like you had alot of fun 😀

[@adventuresofscottandmichel9864]

Looks beautiful out there and the horses are beautiful too! Thanks for sharing with all of us!

[@lindadonahue9279]

You two are such good sports to do these 30 activities for our entertainment. I certainly appreciate it and am really having a good time watching. Many thanks! 😊

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@stj53]

So, good job trying something new! Fun video! Riding horses can help you experience the mountains in a totally new way.

[@vegasstoker9647]

That's where we went horseback riding a few years ago now. I had Posideon he was poky and a little grumpy. I remember Riki Bobbi.My sons horse rared straight up with his 2 year old daughter in his lap. Then clumb a 7 foot ledge right in front of me and my horse. It was terrifying.

[@karencharny1497]

Hi we use to go on TRAIL RIDES years ago..10_$. A ride. hope you enjoy it.🐴🐴🐴🐴 thanks for the memories 🐴🐴. Johnstown Pennsylvania

[@yankeeinthesouth]

That's awesome!

[@susanboatman7913]

They're beautiful sweet horses. Will and Dawn you did real well.

[@bettycollins796]

Hey DAwN, happy trails

[@pammiedoodle8693]

One of the scariest times I was ever on a horse was one of those trail riding stables in Mammoth Cave, Ky years ago. I’d had horses and ponies growing up, so I wasn’t a total novice. Riding OUT away from the barns was just fine and an enjoyable ride, but as soon as we started back and the horse saw the barn in the distance, she absolutely took off full speed and there was no stopping her! It scared the living daylights outta me! I have no idea how I managed to stay on, but I swore I’d never ride at one of those places again! We’ve had quarter horses of our own since then and done miles of trail riding, but I STILL would never ride one of those stable horses again!

[@dhigdon0629]

Loved it. Didn’t know that place was there. Great to know. Thanks For Sharing

[@yankeeinthesouth]

No problem 👍

[@leedanielson7452]

Horseback riding is fun! We have riddin the horses over at Smokemont Stables near Cherokee several times and loved it….🐴⛰⛰⛰

[@rodneyd6746]

We were there last Saturday, went horse back riding, it was fun.

[@SmokeyMountainDreamer]

I love this. Will have to bring my daughter

[@bonnieoverholts5461]

So so glad you did this video!!! I've wondered for a long time how the horseback riding was. My daughter and I have always wanted to do this but my husband always said no. I grew up riding and really really miss it. Thank you!!! Can't wait for part 2. I've wondered about the ATVs also. I know he'd at least do that.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

You are so welcome!

[@stevenkatz402]

This was awesome guys. Thanks for sharing.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

You bet!

[@ericalay9082]

[@Marilyn-KY]

Another great adventure. ❤️

[@danswartwood4580]

That was cool it looked like a fairly big trail. Thank you

[@dawnbenchley7237]

I love that name Ricky Bobby. Beautiful horse.

[@India_archer]

I went about a year ago and i rode a paint horse bamed shilo he was such a sweetheart

[@vegasstoker9647]

They've spruced up the place since I went. We loved it even though we nearly had a fatal accident with one of them horses. It was eventful but all worked out and provided some interesting memories. Great to see you two doing that.

[@watchingfromthesideline1408]

I remember when we were in New York city and we got lost. To this day we still laugh about it. At the time it wasn't funny, but great memories.

[@gooanddannygirl7006]

We have to try this. So cool!!

[@bettycollins796]

I AM VERY INTRESTED IN THE 4 WHEELER RANCH

That looked like you both had fun 😊😊😊.. enjoyed it..

[@yankeeinthesouth]

That was the best… thanks so much

[@jeffdickens7019]

Hey there will and Dawn you can't go wrong horseback riding in the Great Smoky mountains beautiful scenery look like y'all had a blast the next video take care

[@snowballjennjenn2825]

What an adventure 🐴🤠

[@jq5690]

Wonderful video guys! Reminds me of a similar ranch in the Rockies in Colorado that I visited that offered horseback riding, ATVs, and zip lining. I did the ATVs and we left a dusty and muddy mess!! 😂. But it was so much fun! Thanks for sharing!!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Sounds great!

[@cathyrobinson8667]

That was really neat!

[@bettycollins796]

Is this Ranch a seasonal thing,and the 4 wheeler ranch?

[@bettycollins796]

Great video

[@karenc4502]

Will, you did a great job riding for your first time!

[@TheTISEOMan]

Horse knew Will was scared and took advantage. That's why he kept stoppin' off to eat. Horses are smart and they can tell if someone feels fearful. They'll take advantage. It could be something as small as ricky bobby taking a few more bite, or what happened to my friend, the thing bucking you off.

[@itzdylangaming893]

I was the guy in the blue lol

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Hello guy in the blue

[@DerBayer05]

Good video. Thanks I'll be at the smokey mountains in august with my uncle and aunt where living in the US. 😊 Regards from Bavaria in Germany 😃

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Sounds great!

[@kitkatv333]

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Can't wait!

[@christinecampbell2525]

I've been wanting to see someone do horseback riding in the Smokies. I haven't heard of this place. Is it new? I would love to see horseback riding in the mountains too.

[@stephaniecoleman4126]

Absolutely love this one I would love to see you guys do the zip line I’m home right now we’re dealing with some medical issues beautiful so it’s hard for us to go anywhere so these videos really help me love you guys

[@karenstouffer6508]

Atv is awesome,you 2 will have a great time

[@Pixiesantics]

We're you sore the next day after riding the horses?

[@yankeeinthesouth]

yes very

[@triplejadventures6733]

I recommended this because I didn’t think I’d ever seen y’all doing horse back riding. You two did a great job and have introduced us to a new place to ride. Enjoyed this video!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@kathyinwv250]

Dawn had a Poesiden Adventure

[@k.c.4561]

Not to be nosy, but have never rode a horse but have wanted to do this. Looked like a pretty long ride for 1st time. Were you very sore? Would like to plan this for next trip down. Thanks for all the videos!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Yes it was!

[@Tony-5000]

Loves watching the Roy Rogers and Dale Evans of the Smoky Mountains ride horses 👍😉🤠🐎

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you for watching 😙 👀 Tony

[@danielsmith-ze3wy]

Hi everyone hope everyone is having a blessed day

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Hello ✌️

[@bobbybaldeagle702]

Good to see the fun you had... I always hated trail rides they're so boring for me personally. As a kid we rode every day to get from home to town about 10 miles or to our neighbors one was about 2 miles away and the other closes one was around 5 or so miles away. I miss living in the sticks in the hills of NE Missouri. I would of stayed there but there was no jobs within 70 miles that paid a living wage... Now 50 years latter after leaving there I made the right choice for me. Once my grandmother pasted on I had no reason to stay there. She was my life.... Any how that's why trail rides are boring and not long enough for the price you pay....

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you so much for sharing 😊

[@bettycollins796]

Better catch up Will

[@helgabullabong]

You are both great sports. I have never ever ridden a horse but this looked great fun. Gorgeous scenery. Well done you guys. Cheers x

[@tinaellis4844]

Been there. We went horse back riding and zip line. Yall should do the zip lines it is awesome

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Sounds great!

[@OurHomeOurLife812]

Fun! Love horses! Thanks for doing this and sharing guys!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

It was alot of fun

[@lizcortez4897]

Wow what a fun adventure, I love how y’all are just open to try new thing’s…y’all have an adventurous spirit…horses are beautiful but too high for me, I’d be too scared so thank you Will and Dawn through y’all I was able to ride…can’t wait till tomorrow’s adventure 😊💕

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you 🤗

[@toniaconnerchildrensauthor6549]

Hey guys! Enjoyed the video! I went horseback riding for the first time last Thursday in Cades Cove!!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

That is awesome!

[@angelstar5375]

Enjoyed this horseback riding video. Use to ride when I was young, loved it. Thanks for sharing. 👍❤️

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@marlenehelton1675]

Did u bring an apple or carrot for ur horse.? Dawn should have thought of that with her background .

[@yankeeinthesouth]

We wing it Nothing is planned out we do Day by day we don't know from one day to next where we're going or where we'll end up at thanks Marlene

[@goldtopazasylum]

Dawn you're a pro on a horse, fun video!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you 😊

[@teresacantrell7400]

We didn’t care for this place. Their horses seemed more wild and almost threw some lady off when we were there. Our favorite place to ride is at Sugarlands riding stables.

[@angeladpearson]

I LOVED this video so much! I'll be 53 in July and have always been terrified to get on a horse. I've always been envious though to those riding because it looks so relaxing and fun. Now after watching you and Dawn, my son and I are seriously thinking about doing this next Spring when we are in town! 🥰 Thank you so much for doing this and sharing your ride/adventure with us. By the way, Dawn's horse looked alot bigger than the others, lol. I don't want her horse. 😂

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you so much Angela for sharing

[@angeladpearson]

@@yankeeinthesouth just watched y'all's atv ride, lol, now we want to do that too. When I was a young teen we had a 4 wheeler and used to ride but my son never has in his 23 years. I have to say though, not a big fan of those rats. 😂

[@johnathanlollar5074]

You guys should do a zip line video

[@melissad7549]

Im so happy you and Dawn are doing so many new and different things in Pigeon Forge. My family has always wanted to try this but wasn’t sure if it was worth it because we hadn’t seen any reviews. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@evinrude1236]

This brought back a lot of memories for me.....I use to ride horses when I was a teenager. It was always so much fun. If they put me on a horse named "Poseidon".....I think I'd have to rethink that one! 🤔🤣

[@watchingfromthesideline1408]

Love love love your challenge series. ♥️ so much fun. Keep up the good work 👏

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you for watching 👀

[@patkennard9234]

Another fun day in the Smokies. Hope to do that sometime this year. Thanks for sharing

[@cathyratliff398]

That was fun, I love horses, I love all the beautiful horse farms we have here in Central Ky. That was a nice trail and some pretty scenery, so glad you two took us on this adventure, can't wait for tomorrows video 🐴🐎

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you 😊

[@judymarlar1949]

He kinda looks like he's limping

[@kevanlongano7947]

Thanks for sharing your adventures with us. It was a beautiful day for horseback riding. Looks like fun and not too pricey. Another good relaxing option for most in the Smokies. Nice sneak peek at tomorrow's vlog. Take care

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Our pleasure!

[@nancyk4595]

Looked like the 2 of you were having a nice relaxing horseback ride. The scenery was so relaxing for the ride. Tomorrow's ATV ride should be lots of fun!

[@paulrock4816]

I am taking my grandkids to this area tomorrow, I think they would love this.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

yes

[@sandrarhea2328]

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Our pleasure!

[@carlavision6143]

Will and Dawn, really enjoyed your video! Thank you for taking me along with you on your horse ride! Back in High School one yr we went to Lake Texoma Lodge and we rode horses and they put me on the meanest one they had. I also had a horse when I was younger too.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Carla

[@delanomiller]

That looked like a lot of fun. I roe in the Smokey’s years ago. Can’t do it now. God bless

[@elizabethashlee8275]

Thank you for finally doing this one! I've been wanting to try a riding stable there.

[@claudiekyger6806]

That was fun. Donny and I had horses a long time ago. There a lot of fun. Y'all seemed to really enjoy your ride. Nothing is better than the smell of a horse and leather saddle. Thanks for taking us. Dawn I hope you like the ATVs. Stay safe🐴🐴🐴

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks 👍

[@keithsanders2792]

Good job you two! Looked like a long ride as well. Thanks for letting us horse around with you!
