    Ok so I had my child there for a couple months. We noticed that the school horses were not well…read moretaken care of. One day she rode Ian and were told to give him his grain when he was done. When I did a big fat rat hopped into his grain pan. The grain was stored without lids and sometimes we're not fed at all. There stalls were mucked out once a week on Saturdays by lesson kids that received nothing in return. The waters were always low and on the dirty side. Some of the lesson horses went months without farriers(typically 4-6 weeks normally but these horses rarely got them done. )their hooves are all cracked and even when the lesson horses are lame they are still used. Vic was driven into his grave by having untreated blatter issues, cracked hooves and being used multiple times a day in lessons even when lame. Noelle also isn't good with children. Do you want a truck driver to train your children then Noelle's your gal. She is 90% on her phone and while my daughter was going there even though she was showing 2'3 and jumping courses Noell never advanced her past walk trot and on occasion canter. She also wreaks kid's confidence. There are horses living in the indoor arena and when there are lessons are put in the cross ties for hours on end. She lost A ton of horses due to her neglect Vic was only 20 when he passed I know horses well into there 30s. The horses are never turned out and never have time to be a horse. One of the girls there was paying for the farrier cause she felt so bad that Noell was neglecting them. Noelle also managed to misplace a winter blanket. In conclusion steer clear it has a terrible reputation with everyone in the area and it will not look good on your horsey resume. It will not help your kids take another $10 and take them elsewhere.

    Chagrin Valley Farms is a great place to take lessons. I am older and a beginner, but I have had a…read morewonderful experience every time I am there. I have been going for almost a year and have enjoyed every lesson I have had there. The horses are well trained and cared for, the barn and arena is always clean, the staff are helpful and sweet. The trainers are patient, very knowledgeable, and clearly love teaching! All of them are a pleasure to be around. I am working with Fiona now. She is fun, talented, and she brings a great deal of experience. I have made some new friends and get the chance to be around the horses, which makes me so happy! They have horse shows and parties often, too. Chagrin Valley Farms is amazing!

    The management is not very good. Very power hungry and degrading to their employees. Constantly…read moretalking trash about parents and kids and the trainers don't do much and expect the tack assistants to handle every single thing that they can easily do since they sit in their offices all day and eat. The horses are not taken care of very well and do not get good turnout. On sunny days they turn the horses out for two hours and on rainy/cold days no turn out at all and no exercise for the horses at all. The horses who need extensive care and attention are thrown to the side since they're not valuable to their lesson program. Overall very shady and very two faced, faked individuals. Over priced for a not so good service. Go somewhere else.
