I came to Morgan as a complete novice, interested in challenging myself to learn a new skill…read more Morgan's extensive knowledge, good humor, easygoing personality and contagious enthusiasm has made each lesson a true joy. Morgan patiently answers my incessant questions and adapts her training techniques to my learning style. Morgan has made me fall in love with Moon, her horse, and horsemanship in general. I would trust Morgan with any animal but to watch her around horses, especially Moon, is truly something special. She's in my phone as "Horse Whisperer" for a reason, but I should probably add "Novice Whisperer" to that as well, as I have learned so much in just a few short lessons.

I recently attended a schooling event for Dressage they held out there. I get the impression that is their focus. I don't know anything about trainers at this time, but if I learn, I'll come back and add information. I would have given 5 stars but there are some areas of the barn that are in disrepair. Spruce it up a little and this is a super nice place.

From the owner: Specializes in Dressage training and instruction. Lots of T.L.C. for the horses who live here.read more

Words can't describe our experience with this ranch!!!…read more Darrell was fantastic to help me coordinate this surprise ride for my sisters birthday and my nephews to go for the first time. Our ride was stunning across the fields and trails on the ranch. And they even picked up my dad in the 4-wheeler to feed the cows while we were horse riding so he felt he could be a part of the day (we had purchased feed for the cows ahead). The entire family enjoyed the ride itself, the guides helped us take photos. Next time we would consider staying in the cabins on the ranch. Thank you a million times, it was worth the further drive for the experience itself!!!

I came here for a wedding and stayed on the property. We were flying in and arrived late at night…read more(or should I say early in the morning...3am) and it was no problem getting in as there is a code on the locked gate. The driveway was dark, but the cabins were well lit and don't lock. We stayed in one of the 4 identical cabins. The accommodations were nice and had a loft upstairs with two twins. It is a steep ladder and great for kids, but not for adults. The decor was western and featured some taxidermy. This scared some of the little kids we knew at the wedding. The bathroom and main bedroom were a decent size and the kitchenette had a mini fridge and coffee machine, along with the living area with a small TV and chairs/small couch. The grounds were beautiful and was a true farm. The pool was great for the kids and the waterfall made it feel fancy. I loved the open greenery and the animals that roamed, along with the ponies and goats that you could get close to. There is a covered pavilion near the pool that was a hang out spot for our crew. The wedding itself was in the grass next to the reception venue, since it was too wet to have it down in the pasture. The reception venue was large and had high ceilings. The food was pretty good and the two outdoor firepit areas right outside became a place for guests to step out as well. Parking is in a grass lot so beware the shoes you where, especially if it has rained recently.

Some people collect spoons -- I go for rides :) Most of the places I found IN Houston either were English barns with just an arena. This is about 60 miles outside of Houston, but worth the drive, if you want a good ride. They are really nice people, and you go ride on their ranch. There were several ponds, cattle, and lots of great views. It's a husband and wife operation. It's a little bit of a drive from Houston, but I think it's probably the best trail ride around. They are also less expensive than the Houston places. Very accommodating to your schedule. Highly recommend, and would go again
