Services & Process

Splendor Farms offers horseback riding that lets guests explore the wooded trails around the Bush area at a relaxed pace, suited for beginners and casual riders.

They also breed pets on-site, which adds an extra layer of charm for families with kids. It's essentially a self-contained rural retreat where animals, trails, and overnight stays all come together in one spot.

It's also a reasonable drive for visitors coming up from Covington or Bogalusa looking for a rural escape. The location puts it within reach of the broader New Orleans metro for a weekend trip.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need riding experience to book a horseback ride at Splendor Farms?
No prior experience is required. The horses available for guest rides are chosen based on temperament, and staff will give you a basic orientation before you head out. It's a good option for first-timers who want a low-pressure introduction to riding.
Can I book just the bed and breakfast without the horseback riding?
Yes, the B&B accommodations can be booked on their own if you're simply looking for a quiet farm stay in the Bush area. That said, many guests do add a ride once they're there, so it's worth asking about availability when you call.
What kind of pets does Splendor Farms breed?
You'll need to contact them directly at (985) 630-8960 to get current details on what breeds are available, since this can change depending on the season. It's a good idea to call ahead if a specific animal is a priority for your visit.
Is Splendor Farms suitable for a family with young children?
The farm setting and combination of animals, trail rides, and overnight stays makes it appealing for families. It's worth asking about age and weight limits for riders when you book, as most equestrian operations have minimum requirements for safety.
How far in advance should I book a stay?
Weekends fill up faster than weekdays, so booking at least two to three weeks out is a smart move, especially during spring and fall when the weather in St. Tammany Parish is most pleasant for outdoor activities. Last-minute weekday bookings are often easier to get.
What should I wear for a trail ride at the farm?
Closed-toe shoes or boots are strongly recommended, and long pants will protect your legs from rubbing against the saddle during the ride. Avoid sandals or flip-flops, as most stables won't allow them in the riding area for safety reasons.
