I have known the owner, Tanya, for a number of years now. I first met her back in 2006. I was a…read morefreshman in high school and I have always loved horses, and I finally talked my mom into looking into getting one. I found her facility online and my mom and I set up a time to come see the place. After looking into the costs of food, board, and other expenses, my mom came to the conclusion that she simply couldn't afford it. When Tanya heard this, she offered to let me come by to help groom and exercise some of her horses. In exchange for helping with their care, I also got to ride in the arena with her trainer. Sometimes I would ride along in the "Gator" that she uses to get across her property quickly, and sometimes helped with little things, like cleaning and filling water buckets or helping to feed. I am honestly thankful for these opportunity to learn what it's really like to own and care for a horse. Tanya provides a unique opportunity to any child that would like to learn about horses. I am now out of high school and just moved back after doing a couple of years of college in Colorado, and I am back working with Tanya and her herd again. I've only been back about a month, but I can personally say that all of her animals still look great. In addition to the horses, she also has Emus, Alpacas, monkeys, wallabies, peacocks, and more. I have never seen her skip a feeding, and she pays me well to do all of the cleaning. Her animals mean a great deal to her, and I have even seen her fire employees for mistreating her animals. Aside from all the animals, she also has some great amenities, such as a covered arena, a barn, 2 tack rooms, jumps of all different heights, barrels, wash areas, stalls with runs, pastures, and more. Tanya has a great facility, whether you're looking to board, or just wanting to see some unusual animals, you won't be disappointed! :)

I have been training with Kate Peikert for 2.5 years and I own an off the track TB mare who has a…read morenasty streak a mile wide and I myself am a 'green' rider. Not the best situation. Kate agreed to work with us even though her recommendation was for me to start with a more suitable horse. I just wasn't able to do this and was commited to the mare. Kate has been very patiently working with us. My goal was to compete in Dressage. We have had a few set backs in our training progress but now Kate has a beautiful, what I would call a 'boutique' training facility and we are finally on our way. The barn is a place I go to relax, spend time with my horse, train hard and commune with other dressage enthusiasts. We are now riding/competing in First Level and doing well - scores consistently in the 60s at rated shows. My mare gets top care at Peikert Performance Horses. She gets fed 4 times a day - one of which is a supplement feed that I provide/prepare, her stall which has an outdoor run is cleaned 3-4 times per day, she is blanketed/unblanketed as needed throughout the day and she is turned out 5 times a week. The arena has the best ever footing that is groomed regularly and dust is not allowed. With this year's unusually large amount of rain we haven't missed more than 2/3 days of riding. The main arena with the dressage court dries relatively quickly. The HydroKeep makes this possible - which also keeps footing moist when watered. There is also a field that is set for riding. It has a slight grade, with footing as well that is always dry enough to work in even after a downpour. The near by trials in the preserve are perfect for a training break!

Their interactions with each of the children was respectful, engaging, and individualized. Being a former professional educator of 34 years (a principal for 23 years) I know what good instruction looks and sounds like, and what I observed that day was extremely impressive! The students enjoyed themselves and actively participated in each part of the lesson. The lessons had clear goals and were well-planned. The staff provided each parent/guardian feedback on their child's efforts and progress at the end of each of the lessons. I would strongly encourage people who desire an educational and enjoyable experience of this type to go and check out Green Acres Interactive Therapy. I have a feeling that you will be as impressed with this program as I was during my visit.

Genesis was completely honest and upfront about the horse I inquired about which is really hard to find. We started looking for a horse and we heard from her that she had a horse that fit our description so we went and looked at the horse and he was literally everything we were told he was and more! We got there and he was literally the sweetest most loving horse ever! I like the older ones because they are better broke for the kids to ride. We ended up with this amazing horse named Pooh Bear. The best part about it is she even dropped him off to me because I was so close. I mean how better can it get honestly! All the girls that work here were absolutely phenomenal. They didn't make it awkward or make me feel any pressure to buy him or anything. They even tried him first before I got on which is very professional. That's how it should be. They also offered to help Me if I ever have any problems with this sweet boy! If you are looking for your forever baby I highly recommend reaching out to Rocky Peak Ranch you will not regret it one bit! Thank you to all the wonderful staff that helped me find my Pooh Bear!

I recently contacted Lazy Oaks to inquire about a trail horse. Josie was very transparent on the…read morephone and explained their procedures clearly, which I appreciated. However, the program ultimately wasn't a fit for me. The main concern was that, despite the horses being advertised as seasoned trail mounts, buyers are not allowed to ride them on the trail--or even observe them being ridden outside of a round pen--due to their stated insurance limitations. As someone with many years of riding experience, including training through Grand Prix dressage and purchasing horses through top professionals, I have never encountered a restriction like this when evaluating a horse represented as a trail horse. I respect that every operation has its own policies, but for buyers specifically looking for a trail-safe horse, it's important to know that you will only be able to evaluate a horse inside a round pen. The program may work well for some, but it wasn't aligned with what I need to feel confident in a purchase.
