The Eastern Cowboy Horse back Adventures was born out of a love for horses, cattle and the outdoors. The Cronk family, who own and run the ranch, have always lived a life centred on purebred Charolais cattle and well-trained horses. The “cowboy way of life” has appealed to many people over the years. People visiting seemed to want to help and become involved in the “horse” aspect of the ranch by helping check cattle in the pastures, riding to repair fences and working in the corrals at various time of the year when cattle had to be sorted. Leslie decided to start “The Eastern Cowboy Horseback Adventures” to fill this desire. They knew they were on the right track with the trail rides when entire families wanted to return the next day with cameras in hand.

Horses have always been used on the ranch and are now also being used for pleasure in ”The Eastern Cowboy Horseback Adventures”.  The family prides itself on raising strong, well-mannered horses that will safely carry on the trails both the experienced riders, and those with little experience."We have always known that we live in God’s Country and have dreamed of sharing the beauty of our property with other people. We have opened it up to the public through trail riding year round and other activities such as sleigh rides in the winter, etc."

The business of horseback riding involves all four of the Cronk children – Jessie, Aleris, Emma and Savannah – who all enjoy horses and have been riding almost before they could walk. Seeing their children grow up comfortable around horses makes the Cronk Parents want to share this lifestyle with others through trail rides and riding instruction.

Lynn and Leslie and the girls enjoy people and hope to meet many new faces in the upcoming years.
