Things To See & Do


Rocky J Ranch Horseback Riding - Julia and John Abbott welcome you! Julia happens to work in the Montauk dining lodge on occasion, so if you are in there for a bite to eat, tell her "howdy". She and her husband offers Montauk visitors an affordable escape on a scenic horseback ride through the beautiful Ozark National Scenic Riverways. Just 3 miles up the road from the lodge on YY (head out the rocky road back enterance of Montauk) you will find their business. They even supply the horses. They are good folk and I highly recommend them!
