They also had a couple of fall lessons over the last few years. She tried to book lessons for a weekend in October and was very aggressively pursued by a young teenager giving lessons to book. Although the price was now much higher, she decided to book 2 half hour lessons for the girls ($200). She was charged $2,500 for some package. The teenager had referred to a package but it was not clear to my daughter that she was being asked to sign up. How do you charge a person that amount without any indication that this charge is being applied to review? What kind of sales strategy is this to make young teenagers hound clients to lure them into a package deal that is not fully explained and charged to their account without giving them the opportunity to review charges and agree to them? This is a scam!

This stable is the best thing that's happened to my daughter. We have been a part of other stables…read morebefore Sky Blue and none come close to comparing to the level of compassion and care they have for not only the horses, but everyone involved in their care. We started going to their amazing summer camp and my daughter never wanted to leave. They throw a great party in their dedicated party room and always have supplemental activities for the kids to do like art projects, barn side tea parties, fun fashion show competitions... on the horses! The relationships my daughter has made here and the lessons she's learned have been invaluable. I can not recommend Sky Blue enough, especially if you've been to other stables and felt like they weren't for you, Sky Blue is inclusive and accommodating.

Loved the all-inclusive aspect and the fact that we could do a little at a time and hang out in the room whenever we wanted.

If you were to choose between Rocking Horse Ranch and Great Wolf Lodge, it's an easy choice. Yes,…read moreRocking Horse Ranch is more expensive but there is an endless amount of activities for the kids to do. We came on the coldest weekend of the year but my kids had a blast skiing, snow tubing, horseback riding, pony rides, arcade, game room, playing laser tag, swimming in the pool, the outdoor hot tub, and the nightly shows. Food is included in the price and it is buffet style for breakfast and lunch. Dinner is not but you are more than welcome to order more and take things to go. There's snacks available between lunch and dinner but there's also hot chocolate/coffee available all day long with some pastries. The only downside were the rooms. They are connected so if you have loud neighbors, you won't be getting good sleep. Overall, my kids loved the place and want to go back soon. I guess we'll have to wait for another Black Friday deal.

This is where I ride and keep my horse. Westchester has lots of barns to choose from, but Shady…read moreLane Farm is the only one I know of that's both a family-friendly barn for beginners who want to learn on a school horse AND a place that takes serious, competitive young riders to A-rated shows. They give riders excellent training in technique and horsemanship and take excellent care of the horses.

Gardnertown concentrates in their Polo and Hunter/Jumper programs. They host many "A" rated horse shows as well as schooling shows. They give lessons in these disciplines. Lesson expectations are to also groom and tack the lesson horse. I really didn't have any direction on discipline or how far I wanted to take things. After about 8 months of lessons I asked about their schooling shows and in September 2021 I competed in the W/T/C classes. I was able to ride a lesson horse and expectation is to come the day prior to show ready grooming of the horse and cleaning of all tack. Great experience - supportive and the whole barn "family" was very kind and just as supportive. (Family - boarders, leasees and other students also showing) Farm owners are accommodating and friendly. Trainers are great! In the summer I had several different instructors. Many different lesson horses for all different riding abilities. They have 2 large indoor, and 2 outdoor arenas. Wash and grooming stalls, indoor viewing areas, boarding and leasing available.

I have my 3 horses boarded at Stoneview Farms since April 2011. I love this facility. I have…read morepreviously been at 3 other farms who I also liked very much. But Stoneview is definitely the longest time my horses have been boarded. I hope it's like home for them by now. I love the people at Stoneview Farms. It's no drama, no bossing, no rudeness, and no stress. Stoneview Farms is a place where people come to enjoy their time with their horses. I really appreciate that. The schedule is very open but I always check for availability on special days. So far I can visit my horses anytime: 8 pm or 6 am. On holiday days or weekends. This is important since I live 35 miles away and I have a very busy schedule. The barn is kept extremely clean. The horse stalls are 14x14 large. Perfect for really big horses like mine. It has windows that are open in the summer. It never really gets too hot in this barn. I think it is because of the altitude of its location. There is always a nice breeze. The farm also has a large arena, a round pen, a jumping field and a track. The horses are not crowded in their paddocks which means there is plenty of green landscape for our equines to enjoy. The Taddeo family and their employees work tirelessly in improving the previously neglected farm. Every month there is something new, something improved and it makes everyone happy. Its already a gorgeous farm that suits our pocket sizes. Some boarders are serious horse people. They will ride under any weather, and their horses are worked almost daily in their skills. That is always inspiring to me. Some horses there are retired but they look very happy and cared for by their owners. Some horses belong to Eric Taddeo and these are race horses that are worked out almost daily. I really enjoy seeing all this activity. But nobody is preaching and its a very relaxed atmosphere without die hard rules. I do recommend this farm. It's a pity they don't have an indoor or a warm space to hang out in the winter with my children. But I'm certain that eventually it will happen... I love their new instructor Laura Juhlin and she has brought in so much business by teaching horse ridding to children and adults. She is also very easy going and knowledgeable of her horses. Stoneview Farms is the best Warwick secret. They are affordable, kind, home like facility for all sorts of horses and their owners. Thank you guys!
