pond hill ranch and pro rodeo

For only $10 adults, $5 kids, every Saturday night under the lights, at 8pm in the summer, they actually have a Pro Rodeo in Vermont! Many people do not even know this! This is the second time we have been, and regularly recommend this to our friends. The whole atmosphere, the rodeo itself, the announcer, the crowd in attendance, it all says COUNTRY. and it is awesome. Amateurs and pros, Not just Bull riding, they have a variety of different competitions in an event that goes about 2.5 hours. Their is a souvenir store, fair food, and port-o-lets. Seating is first come first serve bleachers on both sides of the arena. Not really a bad seat anywhere. A really fun night out. Can't wait to go back!

My husband is a cowboy at heart. Last year I brought him to a rodeo in Lake Lucerne. This year I found Pond Hill Ranch Rodeo. The Pond Hill Rodeo was so much better. It was better for me (as a non-cowgirl) because it is in a beautiful location. It is a ranch on top of a hill, affording beautiful vistas and and an amazing sunset as the rodeo begins. Go early and walk around. It has a variety of events that are more appealing to me than the "hard to watch" team roping and steer wrestling. Loved the barrel racing and drill team performance. A great rodeo!

Went horseback riding with a friend at Pond Hill Ranch. We took a gentle 1 hour ride through a pine forest to the top of a hill where we had fantastic views of the surrounding mountains. What a fantastic ride, and inexpensive too. I would recommend this place to everyone!

Who knew there'd be a rodeo in Vermont? A real family event--enjoyed by people of all ages. For us city folks, the announcer's explanations were helpful. You have to admire the skill and bravery of these folks. Enjoyed the riding events, but worried about the bulls and the calves in the bull-riding and calf roping events...but animal rights advocates would probably realize that and not go in the first place.

A lot of old fashioned rodeo fun! It was a surprise to find such a neat place in the northeast. Well worth the trip out.

This is not an honorable business. On the surface it may seem so but you will not get what you pay for. Do not board your horse with these folks. They will tell you one thing and skimp on what your horse is getting and how it is treated while you are not there. Shameful way to treat horses and the people who trust others to help in their care.

People are nice, price is right, horse was great, beautiful trails!

What a fun and different experience. My husband and I stumbled on this and decided to give it a try. Our daughter rode horses for years so it was a great outing for us.

My family has gone to Pond Hill Ranch for a long time and we encourage anyone that would like to see one of the most beautiful places in Vermont, to head to this Ranch!!It is great for all types of riders for trail rides and they have some of the best horses in the US to purchase. We have bought some for Polo, personal use and Showing. Alway stand behind their horses. Good people to deal with. NO need to go anywhere else!!

The staff was friendly and extremely knowledgeable, the horses were beautiful and the views were outstanding!!!!! Great family fun!

Uma estrutura bem montada, embora simples, cuja atração maior, o Rodeo, se desenvolve com boas competições e apresentação de bonitas coreografias com os animais. Dá para sentir como é um rodeio estilo americano, quem ainda não o conhece.
