Mariah Guillen
My husband and I had such an amazing time. The views were very beautiful and so were the horses. Tim and Vanessa were so welcoming and great, we will be returning! -
Jet Chang
We had a GREAT Time. My little one missed Vanessa, Timmy and the their grandson more than the horses. That’s saying a lot because she absolutely loved Star. We will be back. They make you feel like family. I loved everything about this experience even stubborn April. Can’t wait to go back. -
Chris Covlin
Wonderful trail ride with amazing people. We will most definitely be back to do this again! Very informative and helpful. The horses had such great personalities and were very loving. Highly recommend taking the time to go out and enjoy! -
Jennifer Blume
Highly recommend Bit & Bridle! We took our 3-yr old for the hour lesson and she LOVED it! Star is the sweetest horse and Vanessa made it such a memorable experience. Can not recommend enough! Thank you for the great time! -

Great experience!! We will definitely be back with the rest of the family!! -
Miranda Villarreal
Today was just amazing. The entire experience from beginning to end was perfect. The owners were extremely knowledgeable, patient and very experienced. My daughters went from knowing nothing to galloping by the end of our time. The smiles and sheer joy has lead them to begging to go back....which we will. I can not recommend enough. -
Kelli Palmer
What an absolutely memorable family experience. Thank you for such a fun evening. We can’t wait to come back!! -
Marcy Reynolds McKibbin
We had an amazing lesson today for my 6 and 8 yr old horse crazy girls! They were able to accommodate us very last minute after another place canceled on us. They saved the day. We were treated like family and we had a wonderful time. Definitely 5 stars -
Lisa Steinbrenner Ashley
We celebrated my daughters 12th birthday with a trail ride. It was an incredible experience from start to finish! Such patience from Vanessa and Tim, and such great horses! Super helpful, understanding, responsive, and professional. Thanks again! Can’t wait till our next visit! -
Olivia Escamilla
Amazing experience! Friendly, patient, and great company to ride with! I was nervous and they really made me feel so comfortable and calm. We most definitely enjoyed our ride and will continue to visit when in the area!
Thank you to all who severed and serve today without your sacrifice we would not have our freedom.

#Congratulations we feel so blessed that we were able to be apart of your #honeymoon destinations.
2 years ago Destin and I went and rode some horse obviously while in Fredericksburg at a place called Bit and Bridle horse stables. The experience was unforgettable, but even more so than the horse riding was the conversation. Everyone knows that Destin and I married early (6 months) and Lord be willing in April we’ll celebrate our 6 year anniversary. Tim and Vanessa married only after 3 months and will be celebrating 37 years of marriage! How awesome is that?! But I say that to say this. You can date a while and decide I like everything this person has to offer and think about marriage. OR, Maybe jump into marriage and find things along the journey of your new life that you don’t like or whatever the shortcoming may be (on both sides) and work through them together, hand in hand. And become a better person, or couple because of it. I hope the memories of horse back riding will never fade, but I know two things are certain, the talks with Tim and Vanessa will stay with me, and I know we will definitely be back to bit and bridle stables.. Yea we could go somewhere else to ride horses but you’re not going to find conversation like that anywhere.. We feel so Blessed to have met Tim and Vanessa. And nothing being planned yet but it’s definitely in the conversations of our next trip out west. … See MoreSee Less
