Rescued Mustangs.
Relationship Retreats.
Unforgettable Moments.
Private, meaningful experiences for wedding parties, corporate retreats, family reunions and retreat groups during your event at Arcadia Villa.
A Meaningful Add-On to Your Arcadia Villa Event
Mustang Wisdom offers private experiences designed for connection and presence — whether that's ground-based work with rescued wild mustangs, a two-day couples retreat, or something in between.
We come to you at Arcadia Villa, or you can visit our quiet 65-acre mountain sanctuary just 30 minutes away.
For mustang experiences: no riding, no horse experience needed, no weight limits, safe and accessible for ages 7–70+.

What Guests Say
“My husband, brother and I took our mom to Colorado for her 70th birthday. She loves horses but can no longer ride them, so I was thrilled to find out about Mustang Wisdom. Erika and John were so welcoming and kind. The customized experience with the horses, Ana and Tava, was truly special, and a memory the four of us will cherish forever.”
“Three generations of us spent the day together and each of us connected with a different horse. Just the short time we spent was very meaningful.”
“If you are looking for an unforgettable experience nestled in the mountains. Very relaxing and fun experience that my wife and I will cherish. Absolutely worth it.”
“So thankful to Erika for sharing her expertise about mustangs and how to communicate and connect with these incredible horses. A really unique and uplifting experience.”
