Tres Molinos Ranch & Resort - Resort hotel in Harper - 4260 N Ranch Rd 783, USA

Looking for an authentic horse-riding and cowboy/ranch experience? My husband and I booked a horse-riding session with Tres Molinos and had a blast! Amazing staff: Patrick (owner and our guide) was extremely professional and personable. He made sure we had the knowledge and skills we needed and reminded us during the ride if we needed to correct our approach. Patrick has great teaching skills and even shared knowledge about the livestock, property and answered questions we had a long the way. Authentic experience: From brushing our horses to saddling and doing some cattle round-up, we were empowered to join in and get our hands dirty. We loved the personal touch of preparing our horse to chores around the ranch. Tip: Bring boots if you are able too. Lodging options: We absolutely look forward to the next opportunity to visit and stay. There is lodging available in a large home for 12 and three other units for accommodations for four. Thank you Patrick and Tres Molinos. Hope to see y'all again soon!

We had a great visit and horseback ride here. The third generation owner of this 15,000 acre ranch conducts the rides. He is very knowledgeable and personable and takes the adventure for his guests very seriously. He shared history and ranch knowledge with the riders, and coached the less proficient of the group on the finer points of how to ride. The horses are exceptional. They are semi-retired quarter horse cutting horses with market values between $20-40,000. The facilities are exceptional including a well-designed and constructed competition arena. I have been enjoying trail rides since I was about seven or eight years old, and I have owned several of my own horses over time. Well I did not have the freedom that I had in writing my own horses it was One of the three best trail ride experience I have ever had. At 3 hours, it was by far the longest I have enjoyed.

We loved our stay at Tres Molinos! We stayed in Hill Top Glam and it was very clean and had everything we needed. Patrick took us on an amazing trail ride through the land - we learned so much! We got to play with baby goats and cows - I would 10/10 recommend! Thank you for an incredible experience- we will be back!

My 13 year old daughter and I visited Fredricksberg to shop and decided to see if we could find a hotseback trail ride while we were there! Luckily, we found Tres Molinos! I was expecting the typical “all in a line” one hour trail ride, but we quickly realized that this was going to be something more along the lines of an adventure! It was truly one of the most incredible experiences we have ever had. Patrick, the owner, spent the afternoon taking us on a tour of this beautiful ranch. We rode through all different types of terrain, saw SO many animals along the the way and got to check on some new calves as well. This was my first time on horseback and I was nervous but after about 30 minutes, I felt much more confident. His instruction is excellent (he teaches a lot along the way which was great) and the horses are super smart and well trained. All that to say, if the idea of riding horseback through acres and acres of beautiful hill country and having freedom to trot and lope sounds fun, you’ve GOT to visit Tres Molinos. It is far better than the typical trail ride and went above and beyond our expectations. Thank you again, Patrick!

We had an amazing time celebrating my 8 year old sons birthday. We started off with a 3 hour horse ride like I have never been on. Horses are professional trained sorting horses that respond amazing. Checked into our farmhouse that was clean and homely. Went on walks on the 100+ acres available to us, interacted with the goats, calf’s, donkeys, sheep’s and more horses, fished in the stock ponds and caught bass and perch. Had burgers and hotdogs on the grill and finished with s’mores in the fire pit. Owner Patrick was amazing and made sure we had everything we need and made himself available to us on our entire stay. Can’t wait to come back with other friends.

Amazing resort! My husband and I went for a horse back ride and buffet. The food was very delicious and we loved the horse back riding experience. We learnt so much about how to properly ride the horses and even got to give them a bath :) It was very different from our prior experiences, I highly recommend it !

Amazing experience for our 3 kiddos and my wife. From the beautiful room to the horseback riding. It’s an experience you can’t forget. Definitely coming back. One of those places you can escape the city for.

Had a great “staycation” day at Tres Molinos Ranch & Resort. There’s B&B rooms, RV hookups, fishing, & plenty of animals to entertain. (I’m pretty sure we entertained the animals, too). Patrick, the owner, will teach beginners about riding a horse. His young ranch hand, Colton, gave a great tour of the property that has been in Patrick’s family for 100 years! We highly recommend.
