Visit Oregon Dream Ponies

We receive phone calls regularly from people wanting to know if they can come over for a pony ride or just visit the ponies.  I share that if they are looking for the pony rides frequently found at carnivals, festivals and pumpkin patches, we do not offer those types of rides or visits.  We do offer amazing experiences that provide time here at the ranch in a personalized “one-on-one” or “small group format”.  All of these experiences support children and adults to get up close and personal to the myriad of ponies and horses at Oregon Dream Ponies.  All visits are by appointment only and led by myself and my husband affectionately known as Cowgirl Kim and Cowboy Bob.

NOTE:  We no longer offer Ponies on location.  

Below you will find a list of the variety of great ways you can visit Oregon Dream Ponies.

Kids and ponies – is there a more joyful combination? Oregon Dream Ponies provides a venue for the smallest horse lovers to enjoy ponies & learn something too 🙂 Starting for children as young as 2 years old.  The Pony Ride Experience has attracted children from all over the world as a lifetime of memories are created during this dream pony ride.  The Pony Ride Experience has also been a popular birthday gift (experience) for a pony crazy child.

Children discover how to safely pet, brush, and saddle the pony, with plenty of time to ride, and ample guidance to keep kids safe. This private hour closes with the child thanking their pony by feeding their pony a treat.

Fun & learning for the entire family unfolds during your visit. Children have so much fun they will want to come back again.   Numerous families come back regularly for more as each time a child visits.  With each subsequent visit, we provide new and developmental experiences while riding and interacting with the pony.

Special Note:  Children who are shy or have special needs have found great success here at the ranch with The Pony Ride Experience and more.  With a background in professional teaching and ponies, Cowgirl Kim will customize each experience to meet a child right where they are at.  Parents have shared time and time again that they cannot believe how much their child was able to accomplish in this hour.

The Pony Ride Experiences are held at the gorgeous Taylor Hillside Farm & Ranch surrounded by Newberg’s developing wine country.  Pony Ride Experiences are offered in a variety of formats starting at $299.

Custom Experience

We love creating custom experiences!  Recently, we had a wonderfully thoughtful husband call and ask about setting up an experience for his wife and 2 sons.  He went on to share that his wife has loved horses all her life and wanted to see what might be possible to create a visit for the boys and his wife to share.  After a bit of conversation around what he thought would be successful, we created an hour visit where mom had her own horse and the boys shared a pony.  Mom and the sons helped get the pony and horse ready for riding.  During the riding portion, each son got to ride with mom allowing mom to ride the entire time.  Dad’s job was to take pictures and videos capturing this special time together.  What an experience!  Dad shared that this was much more than he had expected and was so grateful for the special time we were able to create for everyone.  And, the best part was that the dad was able to keep it a secret all the way up until they arrived!

A while ago, a family arranged a small family reunion including pony and horse rides for everyone.  The highlight of the event had to be when the family matriarch decided she would ride.  At 87 years old, Avis smiled and told stories of her childhood while riding.  Family members cheered as Avis rode first at the walk and then at the trot just like she was a child riding on her family’s plow horse.  Avis’s daughter shared that she had not seen her mother that happy in a long time.   A few month’s after the family reunion, Avis’s daughter called and asked if she could set up regular visits for Avis to ride like she did the day of the reunion.  We set up a series of 1 hour visits where Avis and I rode together in the covered arena playing games and activities just like we were kids.   We will always cherish the time we were able to support Avis.

If you would like to consider a custom experience, call or email to start a conversation about what could be possible.  503.710.2092 or kim@oregondreamponies.com
