A few years ago I took my son here for horseback riding lessons and Nola was amazing. When I talked…read morewith her on the phone beforehand she was extremely warm, friendly, and accommodating. Meeting her for the first time she had that same energy in person. My son loved his first horseback riding lessons. Nola was supportive and respectful to my son and made sure that he was comfortable on the horse. She told me she'd never force a kid to do anything they weren't ready to do, and I saw that first hand. Thanks, Nola!

I stumbled upon the last review and wanted to post my experience ...we too were at Kismet with…read moreLaura and have stayed since Laura has left . Yes, they had to work out some kinks with taking on alot of students that were with Laura but they assembled the riders as best they could. They continue to hire and build their team there and my daughter as actually turned out to love the atmosphere even more now! My daughter is now in her tween years and this place is the place where her confidence grows and that means everything to me. I believe the lessons are a little more expensive now, yes, but the level of instruction is top knotch and the lessons are one hour as opposed to 30 minutes with Laura ( whom we really loved as well). I wanted there to be a good review on here because it matters. Im sure if the others would have hung in there to see how the place is adjusting to a huge loss with Laura leaving, they would find a great experience too:)

We signed our boys up for riding lessons about 6 - 8 months ago…read more I wasn't sure how things were going to go (meaning if my boys were going to be in it for the long haul or get 'tired' after the shine wore off of a new adventure). Kimmie and the other folks at the stables are extremely helpful - answered all my questions - we were invited to book a day (for our family) to "try it out" and get a feel for the lessons, the facilities, the people. It was really awesome and gave us all a very good idea of what to expect and what was expected of us as learners. Fast forward - my kid is getting ready to go to his lesson today. He is so excited! His confidence has improved. He has a deep desire to really learn and further his horsemanship abilities. He shares what he has learned, what he was able to do (after lots of practice), and how that made him feel really great! If you are looking for a stable whose owner has impeccable integrity, a desire to really work with people and horses (together). Look no further.

Yea you don't know who I am cuz I was trying to book a lesson but I couldn't even finish booking it…read morecuz the lady was so freaking rude and disrespectful and had the meanest tone ever. Maybe if you want customers you should get a nicer lady on the phone with a jolly and happy attitude. And when I say I tried to book a lesson, I mean I hung up mid call cuz she was so rude and again had the meanest tone ever. Maybe instead of responding defensively to customers. You should take accountability

I boarded here for a few years. Right next to the trails, which is wonderful. The only reason I…read moreleft was because my horse only got out of his stall when I took him out. I moved him to a facility where the horses are put into herds and put out together everyday except Sundays. Although I don't have direct access to the trails, my horse is a lot happier.

Went horseback riding here recently and overall had a great experience…read more The location is beautiful and not overly built up, which makes it feel really peaceful. It was the get away I was looking for. There are a lot of trails, and while we didn't spend a ton of time right along the ocean, the hillside views were still really nice. We had a great guide. The setup is cute, and I loved that they let you interact with the horses beforehand -- they seem to take good care of them while still making it enjoyable for guests. On our ride, we were paired with a couple who has been taking lessons there and they had nothing but great things to say, which was really reassuring. Only downsides: the website is pretty confusing and pricing for certain things wasn't very clear. It is a bit pricey, though. That said, I'd definitely go back -- and if I lived closer, I'd even consider lessons. But it is just too far for me to make the commitment.
