Avoid as hell. This barn has a very toxic culture. Lots of badmouthing and bullying among riders, especially from older women towards younger riders. Some young riders replicate the behavior to fit in, and perpetuate the toxicity. Women are cat fighting at every corner. it's just awful. I'm a foreigner, and several white women were harassing me and verbally assaulting me on my first day. I felt there was a lot of racism at this facility. The barn owner has no welcoming culture, she tolerates bullying at her facility and greatly participates. She is unjust, and does not take feedback well. Also, the barn owner does not maintain the property at all. She asks you to pay extra for using the arena, but she won't maintain the arena or hire barn workers. Arena gets floaded all year long, the arena is in neglect. It's a pretty bad place for leasing a horse, as they'll ask you to clean stalls for free! It's a neglected place, and there are too many undiagnosed mental illnesses going on there. It's best to spend an extra $100 at another facility that has a better code of conduct and will guarantee you peace of mind. After all, you should always have fun riding! read more

WOW-- am I really the first to yelp about this place? I can't believe no one from the Covered Bridge Park yelpers did a review on this awesome place. We were told about this horse ranch from our ranger at the campsite. We were looking for a playground for the kids to play and he mention the park with a horses ranch close by. Read about my review of the park itself under "Covered Bridge Park." Back to the horse farm-- we took a walk thru the covered Bridge(awesome bridge). At the end of the bridge we took a left and ran into this wonderful horse ranch. Open to the public FREE (even better)! While we were there, we discovered that many of these horses were rescued horses--so cool but sad to read the stories of where each horse came from. If you have little ones or if you love horses yourselves.. this is an awesome place to visit. read more

For the sake of your horse and yourself, avoid this place. The barn manager negligently fed my horse, within three days of him being there, grass hay. He never gets grass, never eaten it in his life. His feed schedule was posted right next to his stall and his very own bale of hay was also right next to his stall. My horse lost a member of his herd, moved to this place, and was misfed in a series of three hot days. He colicked, twisted, and died on the property. Within 12 hours i had arranged for his burial in another county and was en route to pick him up when i was notified by the barn manager that she had a tallow company coming to pick him up. I understand why some would do this with their horse, i dont judge, but i will not do that to my own. I ended up paying off the tallow guy for my own horse's body... The next day when moving the rest of our herd from this property due to all the drama, the barn manager yanked our pony out of his stall and literally started running off with him while yelling at her own boarders. Insane. Got our pony back, loaded up and got the hell out. The point of a barn is caring for these animals that do so much for us and building community. This place is in the practice of god knows what but it aint that. read more

I would have to say I would give this place ZERO stars if possible! Where to start?! I started keeping my first horse there in 1999, I believe. I was 14 at the time. People there just always stupid. Lots of gossiping has always infected this place and with mean horrible people and discussing habits. Personally I'm surprised my parents let me be there do to all the horrible stuff that happened to me there. I was molested at lest twice- not my fault, barn manager throttled me at least three times, saw men's junk countless times, got stolen from all the time. My dad built me a beautiful stall worth $5000 five years before he died of cancer. Only to be kicked out, and told never EVER to come back! Then when I was in dire need of a barn, I was told I wasn't even aloud on the property with out the cops coming out! I was horrified! I never did anything to any one there! Then to find out I was being accused of vandalism there. It hurt me so bad that any one would think I did that was life breaking. Tried to kill my self over the years for that one, even though I was innocent. I've been kick out of every barn in county except two now, all because of this horrible place and my "reputation" they gave me! Now I'm at a Tharapy Barn, with my horses. I guess I never could stand up for my self, but when you have Autism, life is hard! Would not recommend this place to a flea! And the back yard "horsemanship"? Horrible, just a horrible place! read more

My Fiance and I went here in January and I loved it! the people were so nice and helpful. I would love to come back again!

Well all I can say is the covered bridge is as good as it gets in a horse facility. I have been there over three years and enjoy the many trials that are right off the ranch. Very family oriented, the place is not full care and boarders are responsible for thier own horses care and feed. read more

Wow, so shocked to see so little reviews considering how many people call this there second home! Where to start.. I've been blessed enough to have a 18 year relationship with this boarding facility. I adore the owners, they are always working very hard to make improvements, upkeep general maintenance, and personal involvement. The best parts of my childhood were spent riding horses in the large arena and well groomed back trails with access through the river into Henry Cowell. Now thanks to the Boole's I get to share my young daughters first horseback adventures at the same most cherished place. Wonderful community. Wonderful place. So grateful for the Covered Bridge Equestrian Center!! read more
