    Pollyrich Farms

    An expansive, stellar boarding and breeding facility run by highly expert and caring hands-on…read moreowners Buffy and Rich. I have temp-boarded my horse there twice now (needed trail access which this facility does not have) and both times they have been SO kind and welcoming. Staff are attentive, extremely horse-savvy, longtime farm employees with high work ethic. Fencing in paddocks could use some work but is safe. Unfortunately all that I could see lack any sort of sun/weather shelter. Box stall buildings look to be safe & comfortable although older (we looked at but did not try this option). Paddocks for turnout is exquisite and regular irrigation makes for happy horse grazing even in hot dry summers. My one caveat is that access/egress to Pollyrich from Mission Rd/Highway 246 (only route in/out) can be extremely difficult at busy times, when hauling in particular. Traffic is often very heavy, speeders abound, and folks "forget" to yield to (clearly marked) horse rigs. Drive with caution!

We are sending them to a forensic accountant to find out if we were over charged. Our board steadily increased over 20 months. The dates were always wrong and the balance forward always the same no matter what we paid!( No one we have sent them to can understand them !!!) Invoices were only sent every 2 months. And every time they charged our cc there was a late fee! (seriously) they had cc's on file ?? We always paid our bills when an invoice was sent ! Probably late a few times as we are trainers, but always paid them ! Our payment history was sporadic, but they were always paid when an invoice was recieved! When went to pick up our horse which is costly for us, as they are far away, they would not release the horse even after our balance was paid in full ! At this time we are probably going to have to involve the police. Our next step is to call the local police as legally they are not allowed to hold our horse hostage! All avoidable! We recommend 3 horses to them previously and now they will loose all that business ! Looking back at our terribly busy lives, we left the horse there far to long ! The whole thing is mind blowing & deeply disturbing! Lastly we have recieved no credit for our first and last deposit ! And they are claiming we did not give them notice. I have the e mail to prove it ! Think very carfullly before sending a horse to them !

    My horse had surgery in April 2017 at Alama Pintado Equine Medical Center for an injury to his…read morepalmar annular ligament. He went straight to High Sky Farm afterwards for follow-up care, and ended up staying for his rehab for almost 6 months. Moira Gill is the owner, "chief executive" and rehab coordinator for this facility that specializes in the care and rehab of horses in need. I live in the Bay Area and initially thought I would move him closer to me for his initial rehab, but after getting to know Moira and her methods, I thought it best to keep him with her. A bit benefit was having him close to the surgeon, Dr. Judy, from Alamo who could stop in regularly for check-ups and/or treatments. The facility is well equipped, clean and very quiet. It is a bit of horse paradise...no hustle and bustle, large turnouts, a eurociser, an aquatred, and, most importantly, Moira!! She has great people working for her, too, who have been with her for much of her 25+ years at High Sky. I felt completely confident that my horse was getting the very best care and oversight. They are super conscientious about following "doctor's orders" in terms of wound care, medicating, supplements and exercise. She is excellent at communicating and even sent regular weekly videos of my horse once he was doing his trot and canter work. (I was also very happy with the rider who did the under saddle work.) Moira has good farriers and body workers who she has known and worked with over the years and is incredibly timely in her scheduling. Nothing slips through the cracks! In addition, the cost was reasonable for this expert care. My horse came back to me at the beginning of October healthy and happy, a good weight, feet and coat in good condition, and ready to continue moving forward. Thank you, Moira and staff.

    Circle Bar B Stables - Pool and hot tub time

    Circle Bar B Stables

    We've been meaning to plan a horseback riding excursion for the past five years during our…read moreThanksgiving weekends at Cachuma Lake Campground. This year, we finally made it happen--and it was everything we hoped for and more. After searching Yelp for nearby stables, this ranch stood out with the best reviews by far, (now I see why), so our hopes were high. I'm so glad we decided to trust the reviews and drive the extra 15-20 minutes to this place. I was tempted by the value of the half-day ride, but since it had been several years since either of us had been on horseback, we decided to go conservative and chose the 1.5-hour trail ride instead. Upon arrival, we were greeted by Jack, who checked us in and handled the paperwork. He was funny, friendly, and efficient--such a great start to the experience. I grew up riding English, with all the rules drilled into me from childhood, so being told (for only the second time in my life!) that I didn't have to wear a helmet felt almost rebellious. Yes, I know safety matters, and yes, my daughter was smart enough to wear one--but I have to admit, it felt wonderfully freeing. Russell was fantastic as well. Our horses were fully tacked and waiting, ready for us to hop on. As someone accustomed to doing much of the prep work myself, it felt strange--and a bit indulgent--to have mounting steps and a completely ready-to-go horse. My old riding instructors would be ashamed and shaking their heads at me. Though I felt a little "spoonfed," I know this is a huge perk for beginners or anyone unfamiliar with horses. Personally, I would've enjoyed grooming or prepping my horse, but that's not the norm for organized trail rides like this. After the ride, Russell was right there to help us dismount, cracking jokes and keeping us laughing the whole time. I had to laugh when he said, "You're just like me--good looking and short on legs!" Our trail guide, Elrich (Elrick?6, was excellent. Our group was small--just my daughter and me, plus one other couple. My daughter and I are both experienced English riders, while the other couple had never ridden before. Elrich struck the perfect balance, giving the beginners enough guidance without making the ride dull for the rest of us. While I always love a bit more trotting and cantering, I know that's not typical for these types of outings, and honestly, I had an absolute blast just being on a horse again. I've missed it so much. My daughter and I are already planning to return next year for the 2.5-hour ride. The trail itself? Absolutely breathtaking. I've been riding since childhood--now over 60--and have been on countless trail rides. This is, truly the most beautiful trail I've ever experienced. Waterfalls, streams, a few ocean views and stunning mountain scenery... it was spectacular from start to finish. If you're choosing between this ranch and nearby stables, I highly recommend trying this one first. You won't be disappointed, It's a wonderful experience, a gorgeous trail, and a fantastic way to spend the day.

    This Ranch is so beautiful the pictures don't do justice! I've been on many horse back rides all…read moreover the US and the guide from Montana that does the tours is phenomenal! He loves what he does, is very knowledgeable, pleasant to talk to and shared a lot of nice stories about the outdoors. He is definitely an asset to Circle Bar Stables. For anyone booking try to go on his tour!! The nice gentleman that answers the phones is very sweet, I had to call several times to change my tour and he was so helpful I can tell he has been with the Stables a long time and loves being there. When I arrived I was the only one and he told me to go walk around while I was waiting I guess he read my mind. I had to take off 2 stars because of the Gentleman from Texas that works there. He honestly seems like he hates his job, he asked me several times if I was on a horse before and I told him give me any horse I'll be fine. He chose AXE and while he was bringing him over to me AXE was being a little stubborn and didn't want to come not because he didn't go on the trail but he was uncomfortable with the Texan. What bothered me most was he said "AXE STOP BEING A JERK" which made me really upset and uncomfortable. I don't like it when people wok with animals and call them derogatory names.

Char was our guide, and she struck a good balance of keeping things relaxed while still making sure everyone felt comfortable, especially since a few people in our group hadn't been horseback riding before. I rode Boomer, who was steady and easy to ride, and we appreciated that they gave a simple safety overview before heading out. After the ride, we did a casual tasting of both a red and white wine and then chose a glass of our favorite to hang with. The setting was quiet and pretty, and it felt low-key in the best possible way. One of the dogs Nana even joined us for the ride. Overall, it was a calm, well-paced outing that felt thoughtfully run without being overly structured.

Our two guides were great and one took plenty of pictures during the ride, which was really nice because we got to have those memories documented without worrying about having our phones out while on horseback. The trail itself was a beautiful view of the springtime flower blooms on the hills. I'd recommend bringing a hat or sunglasses because it can be a bit bright, and there's room for a water bottle in the saddle bags.
