Dreams Do Come True!

My husband surprised me by hiring Hogback Mountain Pony Rides to bring a very special guest, Clyde the Mini Horse, to our home as part of a professional photoshoot for my 28th birthday. My experience could not have been more perfect; Liz was so lovely to work with and Clyde (adorably dressed as a unicorn) was a fantastic photoshoot partner! I highly recommend hiring Hogback Mountain Pony rides for any event that needs a little touch of magic; you wont be disappointed!

Husband's Notes:
Liz was very responsive when booking and planning. She made payment and planning easy. She was on time and a joy to work with. Clyde the mini horse was a perfect gentleman, but Liz did a fantastic job of keeping him wrangled for pictures and kept everyone safe. Highly recommended. Photos included in review are candid shots, not the professional quality.

Celebrating my daughter’s 6th birthday party! We had invited her entire class- 25 kids! Yikes!- and Elizabeth and her sweet horse, Dutch, didn’t miss a beat and were loved by all the kiddos! Elizabeth was prompt and professional, and so so accommodating to make this a smooth, fun party. I’d most definitely recommend her for any event!!!

A Magical Experience, right in your own backyard!

Wow! I am struggling to find the words to describe how magical this experience was. Clyde was probably one of the most gentle, calm, easy going unicorn’s I have ever encountered. Perfect activity for our 4yr olds birthday. Liz was also just as wonderful. The kids were able to groom/brush him, walk, and even sit and ride Clyde during the time he was visiting. It was truly a magical experience and I am sure there will be many more unicorn encounters ahead for this family and all the families that were a part of this special moment. I highly recommend this to any parent of kids looking to do something unique and memorable. It truly doesn’t get much better than that! Thank you thank you, Liz for helping to make the day so special. Those smiles are certainly one for the memory books.

Wonderful time for kids!

We really enjoyed having a pony for my daughter’s 7th birthday. It was sweet and overall a memorable experience. The only reason why my review is four stars instead of five is because the pony was brown and white (not all-white as pictured) and the kids knew immediately that it was not a unicorn. Still fun, though!

A unicorn surprise

Elizabeth was so persistent and considerate about our virtual meet and greet for my kid's birthday. I was able to invite cousins who live half way around the world and she changed the date multiple times to accommodate time differences and icy weather here in DMV. We can't wait to visit her farm, and loved meeting Clyde!

We booked Hogback Mountain for our daughter’s 7th birthday party this past weekend. The brought 2 “unicorns” adorned with flowers and beautiful horns. They were so professional and kind, the girls loved them! They even helped me with my crazy request to stop in front of a backdrop and take a photo of each girl on their unicorn!

Happy as a unicorn eating cake on a rainbow!

We did a Unicorn themed birthday party for my 7 year old daughter. We booked Unicorn Clyde as a surprise for my daughter and her friends. It was truly awesome to see everyone’s faces when they met Unicorn Clyde. Liz was amazing to work with, very responsive, reasonably priced and punctual. The kids were able to feed Clyde individually and take pictures. We originally had the party planned for outdoors but due to the weather, Liz was able to accommodate in our garage. Not the most ideal backdrop for taking pictures but it still turned out amazing. I would recommend Hogback Mountain Pony Rides to anyones who’s looking for a cool Unicorn meet and greet.

All my daughter asked for was a “real live unicorn” for her 5th birthday. Elizabeth absolutely went above and beyond and completely made my daughters day! She brought props and apples to feed the unicorn and even let my daughter help walk the unicorn back to the trailer. The interaction was a breeze from start to finish. This is one memory that will last a lifetime and I have no idea how I could ever top this! 10 out of 10 recommend - you won’t be disappointed!

My daughter who just turned 5 was bummed that she wouldn’t have her typical birthday party this year. We thought of ways to make it super special but couldn’t find anything. In comes Hogback mountain pony rides to make this her best birthday ever. Liz was super kind and patient with the kids. The unicorn was so adorable and she brought a lot of great props for getting those adorable photos. The kids really had a blast & the adults too. I would highly recommended using hogback mountain pony rides for your next event, you won’t regret it.

Unicorn Party Success!

I needed a unicorn for my daughter's 5th birthday, Liz made it happen and with just about a weeks notice. She came to our home, was there early to set up, and didn't start to pack up until after our agreed upon time. Her unicorn, Clyde, was a beautiful white unicorn. I was concerned that the kids were going to want to ride him, but I think even if we had the option, sticking to just petting was the best choice! Pricing was reasonable, and it he looked just like a real unicorn. He even preferred chips and pirates booty, which the kids loved! Would definitely recommend (and already have) to others!

An enjoyable time!

My granddaughter is visiting from out-of-town, and wanted to go on a pony ride, so I contacted Liz at Hogback Mountain Pony Rides, and she accommodated our request in short order. Liz took her time with my granddaughter (a 6 1/2 year old). and showed her the proper methods for caring for a pony, which she took part in -- grooming, brushing, caring for the hooves, and so on. Afterwards, Liz lead her on the pony for several trips around the property -- showing her the proper riding method, and using positive reinforcement, while also pointing out the other ponies (and miniature horses), and their names, that she owns. We're going back when my granddaughter returns to town.

Pretty in Pink Pony Party Perfection

Our daughter is obsessed with horses and wanted nothing else for her birthday then to have the opportunity to ride a pony. Liz was able to make our little girl's dream come true! Not only was Liz extremely timely and communicative during the inquiry and booking process, but on the day of the party as well. She was easy to work with and the booking/payment process was simple and effortless.
Little John was perfect for the 5-7 year olds that were there and beautifully decorated with flower wreaths. Liz came equipped with everything she needed including different size helmuts for the children and equipment to pick up Little John's droppings. She and Little John were patient with all of the personalities in attendance and really made the birthday girl feel special. This is an experience that our daughter will remember for a long time! We are grateful that Hogback Mountain could make it extra special. :)

Best experience for my toddler grandson

Yesterday we took my 3 year old grandson for the pony groom, ride and feed experience at Hog Mountain Pony Rides and had the most wonderful time with Liz and Happy the miniature horse. Liz is patient, kind and extremely well educated about horses. She has horses and ponies of all sizes for a great riding experience. We can’t wait to go back! My grandson was thrilled he got to ride a horse. Since he could speak he has been fascinated with horses and majority of his toys are horses. Thank you, Liz, for sharing your expertise and giving my grandson his greatest experience yet!

Hogback Mountain Pony Rides was a birthday dream come true for my 11 year old!!! She absolutely loved the paint the pony experience and then riding the ponies around Hogback Mountain! The ponies were super friendly and beautiful-two have blue eyes! All of the guests enjoyed the experience too! We were allowed to arrive early for our party to set up and Liz and her helpers were wonderful to work with! We had so much fun the following day we decided to do Unicorn Photos in the Magical Forest and had the most fun photo session of our lives! Instead of a boxed room with standard backgrounds and poses, my kids had an amazing outdoor photo experience they will never forget-riding on a unicorn and having fun! I got pictures of storybook magic that will be cherished for years to come! Totally recommend this business and we will return for more fun on the farm!

Unforgettable Pony Party for our 3-year old

We had a magical Unicorn themed Pony party for our 3-year old thanks to Liz and her pony Happy. Happy was calm and worked so well with the children. Even those who were a little bit hesitant at first were encouraged to ride when they saw how well it went. Happy was perfect size for the kids 3-5 years old. Liz was willing and able to travel with her trailer to our place which made it possible to have this dream come true birthday parties. She had also made Happy look like a real unicorn, which was awesome. I highly recommend this unforgettable chance to celebrate.

Great Experience! Highly Recommended

We used Hogback Mountain for our daughters 3rd birthday party. We had the best experience! Liz and Chris brought their pony Little John for the kids. They were on time, set up quickly and was ready to take on a handful of toddlers ready to ride Little John. They were great with all the children. Very patient, as well as friendly with everyone that were there. When it was time for them to leave, they cleaned up after themselves and you couldn’t tell there was even a horse there. You won’t be disappointed when you use them for a party!

Beautiful horses, excellent service

We hired Hogback to give pony rides for my daughter's 4th birthday party. They came on time, set up a coral in the yard and brought helmets for everyone. They even went above and beyond by dressing the ponies in unicorn halters since it was a unicorn themed party. Elizabeth was super nice and the children loved being able to hang out with the ponies, not just ride them. The pricing was very reasonable. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a little extra entertainment!

Great experience!

We had a 2nd birthday party for our son and Hogback Mountain Pony Rides was a big hit. Ms. Liz was great with the kids and everyone wanted to ride again. Highly recommended.

Ponies only 30 minutes away!

My daughter had a riding lesson with Ms. Liz and we held her 4th birthday 'Pony Party' at Hogback Mountain Pony Rides. Liz is a natural with kids, she's easy to talk to and my daughter felt very comfortable with her lesson. The birthday party went off without a hitch, and everything was adorable...from the country palate board tables to the pony painting station. It's a great birthday party idea because everyone wants to come spend time with sweet ponies! We are very happy we found Liz.

Wonderful!

Elizabeth is great! She takes good care of her animals. She has worked hard to build a good business. She is very involved in "giving back" by running events that support other small businesses and a local horse rescue!

Kind and professional pony ride company.

Perfect for Pony Parties!

Hogback Mountain Pony Rides did an excellent job providing pony rides for my daughter's 4th birthday party in our backyard. The ponies were adorable and the service was outstanding...easy to work with, on-time, cleaned-up our backyard. Wonderful experience.

Amazing teacher

My son has been taking lessons from HMPR for nearly two years. He has developed a love for the ponies/horses. We have had a great experience every time.

Excellent

Hogback Mountain Pony Rides is awesome! Elizabeth has a love of horses and kids! My daughter has done lessons here for a couple of years. She has learned so much and has gone from learning to ride to doing shows. Flexibility is great and prices fair. One on one is also nice, since a lot of places around here offer group lessons. Highly recommended Elizabeth and her services!
