Big Rock Dude Ranch in Pigeon Forge, TN - Quick Overview of the Ranch

Our daughter absolutely loves horses, so I found The Big Rock Dude Ranch online. I saw that they had one hour horse rides, which we were not going to do, but that they had a petting farm and gem mining area. Once we got there, we bought two 3 pound bags of dirt for $23 and a small bag of animal feed for $5. We headed over to the petting farm area and saw two ponies, one named Moon. Moon immediately came over to my daughter and she fed him right from her hand! Afterwards, we visited the nearby restrooms to wash our hands and take a look at the horse stables. My daughter wanted to pet one so badly, and one of the employees was so kind to bring one over. There is a cafe for food, clean restrooms, a playground, a general store with a mini museum inside, as well as fishing options and picnic tables outside. Everyone was very friendly and we will definitely be back.
