This barn has great (rubber) footing in the arenas & beautiful jumps that look brand new. The instructors are very good, qualified and friendly people. I am really impressed by the size of this barn and the organization that the staff has to make the riding program run smoothly. The stalls are fully bedded and clean and the horses are turned out as much as possible, which is so important to the horses' health. This barn has a lot of heart. The horses are some of the sweetest I've seen in 17 yrs of riding myself; and are much loved by the kids and adults that ride there. Of course there are a group of people out there that expect perfection; perfect lesson and a perfect 'autopilot' horse; this can't always happen, these people simply do not understand how difficult it is to run a horse business and the hours of labor that goes into it., not to mention how expensive. Horses that autopilot also do not teach you half as much as the horses that don't. Progressing in the sport and becoming a good rider is hard work. You will get dirty. These horses are safe, gentle creatures and are the perfect type to learn how to ride on and progress with. I can tell that the kids really learn how to ride here and ride well. Education like this is very valuable. Not only that, but they grow up with a respect and love for the animals, which is most important
