Both rider and horse have come miles and miles since this time a year ago! Andrea has taught my daughter to be a confident, poised rider with quite hands. All the while, training our older disrespectful and indurate horse to be respectful, pleasant, safe, dutiful, and affectionate. As an equine health care professional I have also had the pleasure of working with Andrea and her own horses. She always puts the horse's best interest first and does not sacrifice health for passage. You won't find a more compassionate knowledgeable trainer with her patience, kindness and knowledge.

Andrea has a wonderful, non-intimidating and effective teaching style. She was able to identify my skill level and help me find the right horse for my skill and confidence level and for my riding goals. She worked with me to find my new horse from the very beginning until the day I brought him home. She helped me identify what kind of horse I needed and what my budget should be. She found horses through her network and asked owners questions to narrow down the horses we should see. She went with me to look at several horses and she eventually helped me make an offer and get a vet-check on the horse that became mine! She helped me learn about the process every step of the way! She even helped me find a barn near my house to board him. Andrea is a terrific - I can't say enough great things about Osmond Equestrian and the services they provide!

If I could give more stars I would. Emily Honeyman as a manager goes above and beyond the call of…read moreduty. She's out there in the dead of cold to care for a clients sick horse or breaking waters that have frozen. She maintains all the rings multiple times per week. During the recent barn break-ins she offered solutions for parking to keep the clients safe. If you need extra food for your horse, she has your back. My horses have never looked better and are very happy. The board is quite affordable and the amenities are huge. I've paid more at other barns and had to use portable bathrooms. The kitchen is not only heated but has a real bathroom. It makes me sad when trainers who come there to build their business end up being untruthful and don't pay their bills. It's not ok for the clients of those trainers to then leave very rude reviews. There are plenty of clients there that have been residents for MANY years and they are loyal to this barn including two large animal vets that spend so much of their time at the barn attending to the resident horses! If you're looking for a quiet place to enjoy quality time with your horse, or to have your horse in training with one of the trainers at the facility, have open space to retire an old friend, or have a box stall with a run (with self care options) this is your place and if Emily isn't available to personally give you a tour then she will find one of the friendly staff members to fill in.

We have had the privilege of boarding our horses at ARS for the past several months. Ron and Robin…read morehave a very nice and well maintained facility. The staff if professional and friendly. Horses are well cared for, stalls are bedded with a generous amount of shavings, feed stuffs are high quality. If something breaks (as happens around horses) it is very quickly addressed. ARS has been nothing but a great experience for us. For me, one of best features about ARS is an almost complete lack of drama. People are there to enjoy their horses, not to engage in gossip and junior high foolishness. Kathleen McPhaul, one of several trainers at the facility was the subject of a negative review for ARS on this site. If you are interested in working with Kathleen I would encourage you to look at her website and look at her nearly fourth year body of work, and don't over focus on the one review from a clearly unbalanced person. Kathleen is a very effective and accomplished trainer and instructor. She has long time customers who have become friends, and have reached goals and won competitions along the way. If you are a fit for her program, you will both have a great experience with your horse. If you need a place to enjoy your horses I hope to meet you at ARS.
