The Pacific Northwest is known for its natural beauty. With amazing overlooks, colorful wildflowers, and sparkling waterfalls, there is something awe-inspiring around every turn. Even Carson Ridge Luxury Cabins is tucked away among the scenic mountains of Carson, Washington. One of the best ways to see the area is on horseback. Consider Northwestern Lake Riding Stables to venture through the landscape. Just 35 minutes away from our property, it’s the perfect way to spend the day.
About Northwestern Lake Riding Stables
Northwestern Lake Riding Stables has been offering horseback riding excursions for more than 45 years! After beginning his first ranch in Utah, the late founder Boyd decided it was time to move on to Washington State. He hated how built up his area of Utah had become, so he settled on a gorgeous piece of property in Skamania County. Surrounded by the Cascade Mountain Range, excursions here will take you up and down hills, over creeks, and through stunning landscapes. You’ll probably even see some Columbia River Gorge wildlife!
