And for those who want to learn more about Payson's rich history, there is The Shoofly Village and Rim Country Museum.

Rim Country Pony Rides

Remember summer camp? Remember vacations when kids were hands on with nature and not Nintendo? Remember the first time saddled up on a horse or riding bareback on a pony?  Well, Kohl's Ranch Lodge, outside Payson, has recreated those very memories adults can share with their children.

Cowboy Barry Moffett, owner and operator of Rim Country Pony Rides, has brought pony "Babe" to Kohl's Ranch Lodge where she'll stay and entertain children with memorable rides around the scenic and historic lodge on the banks of Tonto Creek.  With Moffett's experience and Babe's ease, visitors and guests are sure to have a memorable time at one of the most sought after summer destination points in Arizona.

In addition to pony rides with Babe, Rim Country Pony Rides offers birthday party packages where an entire group of family and friends can enjoy a wonderfully hosted rite of passage in breathtaking setting.  Kohl's Ranch isn't only a must see, it's a must do! So, next time your family is planning a vacation, overnight trip, or small afternoon jaunt, take advantage of the hopsitality of Kohl's Ranch Lodge, the Zane Grey Steakhouse & Saloon, and their newest addition, Rim Country Pony Rides.

This summer saddle up for an unforgettable ride! For more information, call Rim Country Pony Rides at 928-478-5033 or Kohl's Ranch Lodge at 928-478-4211.
