The people (management &…read moreboarders) are always concerned about the welfare of the horses as well as their riders and you truly get a sense of community when you're at the barn. Little Creek offers so much for the horse owner: lessons (beginner through show level), easy trail access (miles and miles of Cook County Forest Preserve trails), show opportunities, indoor & outdoor arenas, 6 day a week turnout and a caring and knowledgeable staff. I have trained with Sue for almost 20 years, in several different equestrian disciplines, and have never stopped learning. All the people at Little Creek are like a second family to me and I thank them for that.

www.foresttrailsstable.com…read more If you are looking for a well run, clean, safe place to board your horse for a fair price without having to drive out into "corn country", call Forest Trails. This well kept, quiet boarding facility is family owned, operated and occupied. It is nice to know that your horses have someone there with them 24/7/365. The owners are very active "horse people" that are more than qualified to run a boarding operation. The amenities include: 70x140 indoor arena, 100x200 outdoor arena with lights for night riding, outdoor round pen, dry paddocks, small medical paddock, and large grass pastures for group turnout. Turnout is 6 days a week, and is NOT an extra charge. Extras include several jumps and trail obstacles for use, and a trail to ride on right off the driveway. You don't even have to cross the street! The barn feeds Nutrena products, and quality hay.

I feel a responsibility to caring horse owners hence this review. Sunset Hills is a depressing,…read moreunhealthy stable and after only two weeks I have moved my horses to another barn. In just days they are already much happier and not so anxious and hungry all the time. My horses were together in an outdoor paddock with small shelter. After asking nicely to have this paddock cleaned ( poop everywhere including inside shelter), I finally had to give a worker there $$$ to have it cleaned. The horses are fed twice a day, 2nd feeding way too early at 3pm leaving the horses w/o food for up to 16 hrs (NO). I got yelled at for feeding my horses hay in the evening, even though I bought this hay myself and many of the other boarders did the same. My horses were fed in the mud due to laziness when they had a feeder available. No one would feed the ration balancer I provided because " they don't need it," even tho graining is supposed to be included and my horses LIVE for this little bit of grain. Eating their ration of hay thrown on the mud while standing in that mud is NOT acceptable. The staff is rude, argumentative and very unprofessional but no surprise as the MANAGER was also rude, unprofessional, condescending and crossed boundaries. As horse owners we all know the barn is supposed to be our " happy place," the place we relax and enjoy our horse(es). Sunset Hills is not that place. Even some of the nosey boarders gave attitude and made other boarders' business their own. The goats were always in their stall and badly in need of hoof trims, the indoor stalled horses were kept in stalls in a dark barn with little to no turnout, brought in very early. Of course they went right to their stalls... they knew hay would be there and they were hungry. IMO horses should not be locked in a small stall forced to breathe In and eat in their own urine and poop, being stalked for literally 16 hrs or so. Beware. This barn does not live up to its claims. For $460 a month per horse for outdoor shelter I expected at least basic horse care. This barn does NOT care. You and your horse deserve better than this place and believe me, better barns are out there! Good luck :)
