April builds confidence for you and your horse which creates a great riding experience. Your horse will be so well cared for if you board. If you are looking for riding lessons you'll find April is so patient and provides great guidance and education!

Finding Happy Path Meadows was a dream come true for my 8 year old daughter. We didn't know at the…read moretime that my 4 year old son would also be similarly infatuated. They've experienced love and growth in unmeasurable ways. I've watched her confidence grow, his gentleness expand and their appreciation for the equestrian world blossom. April makes horsemanship fun and exciting in a warm and safe environment. She keeps the kids engaged and excited while allowing them the opportunity to learn what the universe needs to teach them that day (patience, compassion, physical advancements). My kids started with vaulting and quickly learned to ride with balance and Grace. They love coming to this amazing property and just being present. We all leave the lesson feeling refreshed and happier than when we arrived, The Happy Path is addictive!

My wife and I attempted to book riding lessons with the main instructor Rachelle Shreve for our…read moredaughter. Rachelle was a terrible communicator, flaky and disrespectful. After booking with us, she proceeded to double book us and not tell us. Then when we found out, she did nothing to right her wrong. We had heard that she was a strict and blunt teacher, but now you can add what we experienced. I highly recommend looking elsewhere for riding lessons. Maybe in 5-10 years after she's matured, Rachelle will run a better business.

From the owner: Our lessons revolve around three things: safety, fun, and progress. We use a lot of natural…read morehorsemanship principles to help us interact with horses in ways that make sense to them. Hanging out around the barn with horses and friends is fun! We use a lot of games and activities in our lessons so you and the horse get to think and have fun while learning to ride. We have a clear, progressive curriculum to help you learn about horses. Our learning includes horse care and maintenance, using tack correctly, safety and horsemanship, balanced riding, and good communication with the horse on the ground and under saddle.

I moved my daughter to this center after the promise of good communication, plenty of riding…read moreopportunities, and what sounded like a structured learning methodology so that my daughter could continue improving her skills. Unfortunately, I experienced cancellations that would actually occur just minutes ( like 23 minutes ) prior to the lesson time due to things like mud from rain, and other reasons that I wouldn't receive until getting to the center as I was already en route. My daughter spent very little time on the horse in all. The disorganization was blatantly obvious and very frustrating. Their muddy dogs jump into your car as soon as you open the door so watch out if that would bother you. The faculty is very unwelcoming. I do NOT recommend this place. Go anywhere else that would appreciate your business.

My 3 granddaughters love going here for lessons. Cat, Athena, Martti, and all the other helpers…read morehave been so wonderful. The horses are beautiful and so gentle. It's so nice to have boots and helmets available to use, also, if needed. I especially like that Cat has worked with our schedules. I've been looking for a place that is friendly to those who are not horse owners and experts on everything about horses. This place is great. Down to earth, safe and so much fun! Thank you so much for everything you do to make my granddaughters love their lessons!

Horseback riding lessons at Horse Haven (also Equine Life Solutions) are the highlight of my…read moreweekend. I love Robyn and Michelle and the fun group of horses. They start you off slow but build a strong foundation for the future. I was a complete beginner and can now get my own horse from the field, groom, saddle, and ride. The focus is on natural horsemanship and balance. I have a horseback riding vacation coming up in August, and they are helping me get ready in time. There are always lots of volunteers on hand as well to assist as needed. I will probably be taking lessons here for years!

i admit it--i'm horse-crazy. grew up riding bareback at summer camp and briefly had a horse in high…read moreschool. the barn we kept her at was so typical--full of teen drama, unhealthy behavior (both girls and horses) and in general not a nice place. flash forward 45 years to Seattle, where i now have a teen daughter who loves to ride. we stumbled upon horse haven via a good friend and i'm still pinching myself that this place exists. Robyn is great with the girls and the horses, offering life lessons disguised as horsemanship lessons. if you have a rider who's interested in truly listening to herself and her animal, this is the place for you! PS: only 4 stars 'cuz i wish it were :15 from my house instead of :40.

Im so glad I found them- especially love the indoor arena so you can ride rain or shine and the horses are all healthy, happy and lovely. They also host events from time to time so you can get to know the owners and trainers and other riders which is nice. I just can't say enough good things about this place. It is an animal paradise.

It was seriously the BEST PARTY EVER!! The kids were kept busy the entire time, they toured the farm, played games, rode horses and had the best time. I have gotten so many compliments on the party. My daughter said it was her dream come true!! :) I mean what little girl doesn't dream of a horse back riding party!? Morgan, Jessica and the other girls there are so sweet and absolutely amazing!! The farm is beautiful and it is kept immaculate, you can tell that everyone there truly cares and loves what they do! We are now taking riding lessons there and LOVE the program. Fire Run Farm is one of a kind!! They have a wonderful kids program, they do birthday parties, camps and offer even more fun days... I highly recommend them!

Put my horse up for sale. Almost three weeks later he sold. Was so rude to the buyer who came to pick up the horse, wouldn't answer any questions they had about the horse. Had my horse up for sale in Feb ( told them, as well as asked them to help sell my horse, but again never did help like they said they would for a 10% cut ), paid for March as he wasn't sold yet. March 2nd he sold, the 3rd they came to pick him up. Wont refund any money I had paid for the month of March for training. Now, blocked me, wont return any of my emails about getting my belongings I have there, let a lone wont give me a copy of this "contract" that they are trying so hard to hold onto ( about refunding me some of March's board). PLEASE be very careful with dealing with these people. They will rip you off if the can. Your better to just stay away from them all together! They are what give horse people a bad name!!

I brought my gelding here last spring and he is settled unlike any other place and just a happy boy! The staff is amazing along with the owners. The owners have gone above and beyond when my horse went through a small injury. I do not worry if I cannot make it to the barn knowing my boy is well taken care of. Most horses and their owners have been here for YEARS something like 5-10 years. This is a drama free, non judemtnal sanctuary for your horse. The turn-out is unmatched around the Snohomish area.
