Dear Steve and Carol, We all had a wonderful time with you on Wednesday. Megan
and I enjoyed the lesson and brushing, and the rest of the Gatz crew loved the
trail ride. I'm so glad you are there. We're looking forward to the pictures
taken on the trail ride. Sincerely, Nancy Lewis

Dear Carol, We stayed at your beautiful farm in June. My daughter and I stayed
in your cabin and rode horses in the morning and had a great time. We were able
to build lots of great memories that weekend. Thanks for that... I have been
passing out lots of your brochures to friends and clients at work. I hope
business is well. I don't know if I am too late or not, but I was wondering if
you would have any of the pictures that were taken on our ride that day. Can
you let me know if you do? Many blessings to you, Sherry Marino

Hi Steve and Carol: I wanted to thank you again for a wonderful time you
provided on the horseback ride we shared, July 2nd. Sorry for being late! I
should of taken your advice on using the GPS! If you could forward any photos
you took of us, I would really appreciate it. You both created a very memorable
experience for Melanie, Valerie, and I. Many thanks and best wishes, Ed Moore

Hi Steve and Carol! I was there at the cabin with my husband for our honeymoon
on the week of 6/15-6/18. I rode Nordic on Tuesday the 17th. I would really
love to have a copy of the horseback photos. Everything was so beautiful, we
loved the cabin and I loved the ride. Thanks so much for such a great place!

Thank you note dated May 8th, 2008:
We would like to express our thanks to Carol and Pat for the personalized
attention you showed us on our ride May 2nd. You took the time to answer our
many questions and made us feel like special guests. We really enjoyed the tour
of the cabin as well as the opportunity to groom the horses. The trails were
just beautiful and the ride was very relaxing! The experience helped to make
our anniversary memorable. Thank you again, Charlie & Marcy Armstrong

Dear Steve and Carol, Thank you again for such a fun experience on your farm.
The kids have not stopped talking about it. Jake's favorite part of our stay
was the trail ride. Chloe loved participating in the horse camp. We all enjoyed
your warm hospitality and the coziness of the cabin. Thank you also for your
extra help getting us started with the fishing. We hope to see you again
sometime soon! Blessings, Dennis, Dana, Jake and Chloe Ingersoll

Steve and Carol; THANKS AGAIN! You guys made our return visit better than our
first. The kids are still talking about their first ride. I would love to get
the pictures from March 27th. We never thought twice about bringing the kids
out for their first time on horses. Jessica is still talking about
Lucky. Please send Pat our best wishes and we will be back in the
area in late Summer. We are very interest in one of your twilight rides. We
will see you then

Hello, Thank you for the nice morning ride around the farm. You have a lovely
property, and stables. We are looking forward to seeing some of the pictures
from our ride on the 29th. Thanks again! Sincerely, Carolyn Brown
Email dated August 29th 2007:
Hello Carol, I wanted to let you know that both Karen and I greatly enjoyed the
ride Sunday. The horses had great spirit and the trails reminded me of riding
in Lunenburg County where I grew up. Karen really loved it when Blaze showed
her the affection at the end of the ride. I will definitely refer my friends to
your stables and will return when we are in the area ourselves. We are eager to
see the pictures and share them with our kids. Thanks so much for a memorable
ride. Sincerely, Karen and Kenny
Email dated July 27th 2007:
Carol, Sending you my e-mail as requested so you can forward the photos you
took of our ride this past Monday evening (Katy McLaughlin and Wanda Crowder.)
I was so impressed with your stable. Everything was TIP TOP!!! The horses were
a delight, and you and Pat made us feel at home and confident that we were in
good hands and on "good, trustworthy hooves." You made Katy's first
experience with horses a positive one and perhaps laid the groundwork for
future interest. The photos were an added bonus followed by an popsicle treat.
I gave your card to my daughter to share with some of her friends at work who
had asked her if she knew of a good riding stable. Hopefully, this will bring
you some business. I wish you success here in the Shenandoah valley. If I
should be in your area again, I will stop by and say hi. Best wishes, Wanda
Crowder Email dated July 3rd, 2007:
Carol, This is to follow up regarding the photos taken of our
family ride with you last week. We're very much looking forward to seeing them.
Can't tell you how much we enjoyed the ride and appreciated your patient humor
in dealing with our evident tender-footedness. Please pass those thanks along
to your four-legged partners as well. It was most accommodating of them to
allow us remain seated the entire time AND believing we were actually calling
the shots (I believe I saw Taco wink at Blaze at one point). Please let us know
if you need any additional info from us ... thanks and again and we're already
looking forward to the next time. Mark & Beth Steven
Email dated July 2nd, 2007:
Carol, Just wanted to say how much Kym, Abbey and I enjoyed
meeting all of you, and our trail ride around your beautiful property. It's
great having you in the area, and I know we'll be back for another ride soon.
We'll also be interested in the cabin you have built for guests. Would love to
see the pictures you took that day. Abbey was so excited about being on her own
horse for so long. Thanks again, Lora Wells
Email dated July 1st, 2007:
Hi Steve and Carol, Dan and I wanted to let you know that we
really enjoyed riding the horses at your farm and talking with you about
Striper fishing. We were wondering if you could e-mail us the pictures you took
while we were on the ride. Also, if you want to use the pictures or this
testimonial on your website feel free. We had a wonderful relaxing week at the
Lake and it started out with the trip to your farm and trail ride. Please tell
Pat that we really appreciated her guidance about the horses during the ride.
Have a great rest of the summer and we wish you Good Luck with the new
business. ...... Thanks again, Dan and Carol Glatfelter

Email dated May 29th, 2007:Thanks so much
for the great rides on "Rusty", "Nordic" and
"Lucky" yesterday. My husband, daughter, and I had a wonderful time.
My husband and I had not been riding together since I first got pregnant with
our daughter (and didn't know it yet). She is now 14 years old. Carol and Pat
were wonderful on the trail and made sure we were always comfortable and safe
with the horses. We especially enjoyed going through the stream and seeing the
horses enjoy themselves. You have a wonderful property and we would highly
recommend your guided rides to anyone who would like to contact us. We are
looking forward to receiving the pictures you took of us while we were on these
wonderful horses. Thanks again for a memorable and enjoyable experience. Paul,
