Crazy M Ranch: Prince George

Overview:
Come and enjoy a horse drawn sleigh ride through beautiful woodland trails and open fields where deer and many other kinds of wildlife can be seen. The hour long ride will bring you back to a building “The Sleigh Shed” which is heated by an old fashioned wood cook stove where complimentary hot chocolate, coffee, tea and cookies are served.

Thoughts:
This is a great winter season activity for a fairly large group. The family run ranch offers hour long sleigh rides followed by another hour of drinks bon fire and sledding.

The property is about 20 min out of the city and is pretty easy to find. The ameneties are in great condition and they are constantly adding new things to make your experience more enjoyable.
Coffee and tea are provided and outside food is allowed as well. We brought hot dogs and marshmallows to roast on the fire and they had sticks there for you.

The sledding hill was a bit of a walk from the hut and would be a bit difficult to use within your time frame. It probably gets most use during larger groups where multiple sleigh rides are required.

Pros:
Good for large groups and a lot to do in the couple of hours you get. Very friendly family that runs the sleigh rides.

Cons:
Sledding hill a bit far and it is an open sleigh ride so weather may or may not be on your side.
