Great experience by Wendy W. at InsiderPages

We had our daughter's birthday party here. It was a miserable hot day in June but the kids had a great time. Everything was very relaxed. We had a couple of issues but they were taken care of immediately and...

Great Family Fun!!!!

We had a great time at Dead Broke Farm! Our boys ages 6&7 had been dying to ride a horse. We chose to ride horses as part of our Chief's Family Challenge with Indian Guides. It was a great spot to ride for...

Best Horseback Riding Experience By Far.

I found DBF about 2 years ago and I cannot think of any other place that I would want to learn about horses and horseback riding. My first time there I was impressed with the way the horses were cared for. I...

Loved Dead Broke Farm's Day Camp

We had a wonderful experience at this day camp. I thought it was a little pricey for one week, but my 10 yr. old daughter wanted to learn to ride outside a ring and care for horses more then anything. She had...

Worse than I could have even imagined

I was a first time rider and this place has a horse trail NOT fit for first time riders if you go after a rain. The trail is narrow and muddy and the mud spooks the horses. A guide and two customers fell...

Great place for birthday parties!

We had a shared birthday party for my daughter and her friend in mid-autumn, so we had A LOT of children (~35) there under the age of five year. Everyone had a great time. The horses were so gentle, and not...

Great Trackout Camp Experience

What a great time - definitely worth the money!

My fiancee and I visited for a ride. I had emailed Carla ahead of time to figure out what we may have been getting into . . . both he and I had horses as a kid so, we didn't really what "plugs" for horses who...

Earlier this year, I was looking for a place to enroll my daughter during track-out and she has such a passion for horses, I started looking at horse camp. One of the places I looked at only offered ring...

Best Horseback Riding Around Raleigh Durham area!!!

Enjoyed riding with Rose and Carla. They are two ladies who are passionate about horses! The trails are very well kept and tranquil. Lots of shady trees and even some streams to cross (I let my horse take a...

Unprofessional, poor horsemanship, poor business practices.

I visited Dead Broke twice when looking to purchase a horse. When I arrived the first time Carla didn't seem to know who I was or what kind of horse I was looking for, despite a lengthy phone conversation. She...

Our family loves Dead Broke Farm. Our children have participated in their camp program many times and have always had a positive and, more importantly, fun experience. Since there are so many horses, the staff...

Helpful, knowledgable staff. Good, wholesome fun. Lots of ride time. We will go back.

My daughter told me that her day camp week at Dead Broke was the best day camp of her young life so far. She got a lot of ride time and the hours are good for parents with a day job; I work in Raleigh from 8-5...

This is a complete waste of money. My daughter went on one trail ride for one hour per day and spent the rest of the time watching movies -- generally 4 per day. She was left completely unsupervised twice when...

Maybe for a trail ride, but not camp

If you're looking for a place to see a bunch of beautiful horses, Dead Broke Farm has them. But the supervision for the children's camp left something to be desired. While the advertising states the hours are...

Pick another farm...

DBF is definitely NOT the farm to go to for trail riding if you are an inexperienced rider, the website is extremely misleading. The farm is understaffed, we had to wait entirely too long to get started with...
