A LOOK AT TODAY
These days Love Valley's looks haven't changed a lot on Main Street. You can drive your car up to the main gate of town, park and walk down the dusty street. Most would rather live that cowboy / cowgirl dream and ride their horse down the street to one of the saloons, Shelby's Place, Silver Spur Saloon or who could forget the Chicken Coop. You can even ride up to the General Store or Moonshine Gifts. Just tie your horse up at one of the many hitching posts that line the streets. You can also ride down to the Love Valley Arena and see a show or rodeo. Lots of events are planned all through the year.
The Valley, as some folks call it, is open all year round but some of the stores are closed until the weekends. As for staying at Love Valley, you have your choice of what to do. You can get a room at Miss Kitty's place, park your trailer in Jolly's field, or stay at one of the many campgrounds such as Caruso Farms, complete with trailer hook ups and water. One think to always remember, Love Valley is a horse riding town NOT a 5 star hotel.
TRAILS
Love Valley has many miles of trails that loop around the town and surrounding areas. Trails go from easy to moderate. I would say use shoes or boots but you know your horse better than me. Trail names are Tower Trail, Ice House Trail, Creek Trail, Pinto Bean Trail and the Ridge Trail and of course there is always riding in and around town. These trails are leased and maintained by the Love Valley Horseman Association. They work hard to keep the trails clean and clear for everyone. They always ask that if you pack it in then please pack it out. Respect all trails.
Love Valley may not be for everyone but I like it and many others do too. Some folks even call it 'their home away from home". There is a little something for everyone, from shows and rodeos at the arena, to ride on the many horse trails, find the rope swing or hangout with friends on the power lines or just go up town to Main Street sit on one of the benches and watch riders coming into town. If that's not enough for you you can always go into one of the saloons , play a game of pool, have a cold drink or dance the night away.
Yeah there is just something special about a man's dream becoming a reality.
Happy Trails y'all!!
