When you think of living the ranch life, you probably imagine the sprawling properties out west. But it turns out, in our horse-loving state, Kentucky offers a similar experience where you can relax, while also putting in the hard work that it requires to take care of and ride a horse. First Farm Inn Bed and Breakfast is located in Northern Kentucky and is essentially a ranch getaway in our state that will turn anyone into a cowboy and is an overnight destination every Kentucky family will enjoy.
First Farm Inn is a beautiful property in Petersburg, not far from the highway. It's proximity to Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky attractions makes it a great getaway destination, but it's the connection to horses that makes it truly unique.
The property is beautifully maintained and is scenic all year long. The bed and breakfast is a relaxing escape from everyday life, and the one-of-a-kind features of this farm truly transport you to a place of respite.
The farm has a ranch-like feel with a herd of horses and other animals frolicking about. When you stay at the Inn, you can interact with and ride the horses, all led by the farm's patient and welcoming owner.
Riding here is unlike other experiences, because a trail ride includes time in a ring, learning how to properly be on a horse. Many farms and riding excursions just let you "go for it," but First Farm Inn is passionate about enabling that connection between horse and rider, and ensuring the experience is a safe and memorable one.
You'll have a two-hour riding experience during your stay, and are also welcome to interact with the horses during your visit. The family that runs the farm is also happy to show and tell you all about how the property is run and how much hard work it takes to make it all happen.
The bed and breakfast is open year round, and you can have the horseback riding experience in all sorts of weather. Of course, it must be safe for both horse and rider, but a little snow does not stop them. The farm is also wonderful as a family getaway, perfect for making unique and unforgettable memories.
The farm has two rooms in its home, both of which are outfitted in the perfect mix of rustic and modern. It's a farmhouse stay with everything you'd hope to find in a comfortable getaway.
Breakfast is also a favorite feature of a stay here, and you can fill up on homemade specialties before your horseback riding experience, just like a true ranch hand. After the hands-on lesson and ride, and a stay on Kentucky's version of a ranch, every member of your family is sure to feel like a cowboy, and have plenty of wonderful memories as well.
A stay at First Farm Inn will introduce you to ranch life by seeing some of the hard work it takes to maintain such a place, while also allowing you to relax and enjoy a beautiful area and pastime of Kentucky.
