Beginning November 2026, we’re opening the gates at Resting Feather Ranch and inviting you to experience our herd in a whole new way.

Resting Feather Ranch is home to 8 incredible horses — five full-sized horses and three minis — each with a personality, a story, and something uniquely their own to share.

Hana’s Horse Encounter is more than a horse tour. It’s an intimate, guided experience centered around connection, compassion, education, and the incredible bond between humans and horses.

During your visit, you’ll:

• Meet our herd and hear their individual stories
• Learn about horses, equine behavior, care, and rescue
• Spend meaningful time interacting and connecting with the horses
• Participate in simple, guided connection and mindfulness experiences
• Enjoy light snacks and water or juice while taking in the peaceful ranch setting

No horse experience is necessary. Just bring your curiosity, an open heart, and maybe a pair of boots. ❤️

Choose from a Daytime Horse Encounter or experience the ranch in a whole different way during a Sunset Horse Encounter.

Simply fill out the reservation form below and select the date and available time slot that works best for you.

Once we receive your request, we’ll contact you to confirm your reservation, provide directions to the ranch, and share helpful details so you know exactly what to expect before your visit.

Space is limited and advance reservations are required.

All guests must be 18 years of age or older.

Hana’s Horse Encounter takes place at a working ranch and includes close interaction with horses and other animals. Horses are large, free-thinking animals, so the safety and comfort of both our guests and our herd are always our priority.

Participants must be able to understand and follow instructions from our horse handlers, remain aware of their surroundings, and safely navigate natural and uneven ranch terrain.

Closed-toe shoes are required. Guests must follow all instructions provided by staff and should never approach, feed, touch, or enter an animal’s space without permission.

Participants may not be under the influence of alcohol or recreational drugs during the experience.

If you have mobility limitations, a disability, medical considerations, allergies, or other needs that may affect your participation, please contact us in advance so we can determine how we can safely accommodate your visit.

All animal interactions are guided by our staff and may vary based on the horse’s comfort, behavior, weather, and ranch conditions that day.

We never force an interaction — our horses are given a choice, too.

For safety reasons, staff reserves the right to modify or discontinue an interaction when necessary to protect our guests, staff, or animals.

All guests must sign a waiver before participating on site. 

Follow Animals with Heart on Instagram @animalswithheart2 as we introduce you to the herd, share their stories, and give you a glimpse into life at Resting Feather Ranch.

Come meet the horses. Hear their stories. Experience the connection.
