Absolutely wonderful place to ride at! The trainers are extremely nice and help guide you through everything. They have 60+ horses here, the two in the pictures I'm riding are Dancer (Haflinger) and Patty (Haflinger mix). As for the moment I am training with Mallory who is one of the sweetest people I could of ever met!

I think this would be a very good place to learn to ride and care for a horse. I was hoping my grand daughter would be ready, but she was a bit tentative. The instructor was kind and understanding of her fear.
