I recently switched boarding my horse to a new place. Had been here for over a year. While…read morenothing seriously wrong, was not happy with the constant turn over of employees (trish was the best!!!!) sanitary conditions of the barn, lack of training equipment (jumps, barrels etc) and while turnouts were daily, depending on weather, pastures were not up to snuff for grazing horses. Owners were absentee, with their young daughter as barn manager, who was rarely around. Overall was not terrible, but for amount of board charged was expecting more care and attention to the horses and owners.

This stable is great! I came here looking for better instruction in Eventing and I got just what I…read moreneeded. The stable is clean and organized. Both trainers have their own scheduling board so the students can see which horse they are riding. So far every time I have come my trainer has been on time and was already in the barn by the time I came. The horses there are well-trained and gentle. The facilities there are very nice. My lessons have also been very good as well. Each lesson I rode the full duration and was not shorted at all. My only complaint is that there is no dressage arena(or arena emptied of jumps). This means that working on dressage can be difficult since you can't work in the full size of a dressage arena. There are also no letters so for those who are just learning dressage this can make things more difficult.

There are a few stables near our home in East Cobb but none are as professionally run as Falcon…read moreRidge--the owners are on-site and very hands-on. Our daughter has only taken lessons for a year but she has really excelled with their training! Perhaps the facilities aren't as new and pretty as some of the North Fulton stables, but I can definitely say her Camp experiences were night and day from one in Milton (2010, very basic) versus Falcon Ridge (2011, more fun for her, more in-depth lessons). Looking forward to seeing her continue to learn and do more in the future! Big fan!

Watched my 8 year old ride in the covered arena on a rainy day - an accident waiting to happen. I…read morecould hardly watch. The horse she was on seemed distracted and she couldn't control it. Her young "trainer" just kept yelling at her to use her legs, but I could tell she was frightened and didn't know what that meant. The part of the covered arena she was using wasn't entirely covered, so the rain was still getting in, there was lots of mud that her pony did not want to go in, and yet she was with 3 other riders who were having their own lesson using one jump in this tiny area. One of the other girls almost ran into my daughter and then her trainer yelled at her! There were 8 other riders, with 2 different trainers who, maybe because they owned their own horses, were lucky to have the rest of the covered arena although there were lots of horses and riders charging around. What a mess! 12 horses, 12 riders, 3-4 trainers, parents everywhere - chaos. Maybe this place is ok when it's sunny and they can use different riding areas, but things seemed dangerous - I wasn't the only parent that was anxious! Finding somewhere else to ride.

Jaid Stables is an amazing place. Jamie Bice is the most amazing trainer. My daughter has been…read moreriding with her for over5 years. She has a lot of patience and is positive and really understands kids like my daughter who have anxiety or ADHD or just need someone who understands. It's refreshing to have someone who is positive and caring and doesn't yell. The other trainers at the barn are equally amazing. It doesn't matter if you are 5 or 65, you will be treated with kindness and respect and learn so much! This barn is well maintained and the horses are well taken care of. They are always glad to see all the people. This barn is like a family. You should definitely come to be part of it!

I recently moved my horse to Jaid stables at the beginning of September. It has been an amazing month with top notch care and attention to my horse. They love her like their own and I never have to worry about not being able to make it to the barn some days because I know that she is getting top notch care. In addition to their 5 star boarding, the trainers are top notch! My horse receives training rides once a week and is already showing vast improvements on the flat and over fences. My weekly lessons are always engaging and present new but feasible challenges that help me grow and become a better rider. Although I am not showing at the moment all of their riders have demonstrated top placings at local and A rated shows. I can't wait to start competing with Jaid next season!

This is a wonderful charitable organization that takes in abused and unwanted horses. The farm is…read moreexpansive and takes in all kinds of horses, although they focus on the Percheron, a breed of draft horse that were originally bred for warhorses. It is nothing short of amazing to stand next to one of these beautiful horses. When you visit the farm, by appointment only, you will see many before and after pictures of abused horses. The owners will give you a tour of the farm and introduce you to their farm family which includes at least 3 cats, a peacock and Yellow dog they will tell you amazing stories of rescues and abuse. In addition, if you love horses, you can donate your time to the farm, and of course, they accept any monetary donations that are tax free to you!

Had a great time with my 6 and 9 year old kids last week during "dad camp". The Fulton library has…read morea free pass you can check out for up to 4 people which is great but it is otherwise affordable. I would budget at least 2 hours here or as many as 3 if your kids are going to interact with the butterflies and the turtles and do the scavenger hunt as mine did. The indoor exhibit is small but charming and there are a few native species around. The downstairs education center also does a scavenger hunt every month which is really cool. They've done an amazing job of "gamifying" nature/science learning with their points based rewards system and natural objects exchange. We learned a lot about butterflies and caterpillars on our quest. The points thing goes a long way to motivating little ones that may be more skeptical about "learning" experiences and museums. But if you have kids who are more active and will walk, the variety of local trails contained within the nature center is quite nice. I would recommend coming here for adults without kids too for this reason. I heard there were little fairy houses somewhere too here but. I didn't see them. We saw the beaver, a variety of different birds including hawks and owls, and tons of other local animals. It was cool to see how intentional the design was of the outdoor sections and the map they give you at the gift shop/ticket counter is helpful. I also like how they have lots of play areas built in outside for kids to explore in a less structured way. They also have some nice picnic spots. Staff were friendly and helpful. "Feeding" (with the little sugar sticks) the butterflies was fantastic. Even on a hot summer day, I'm super glad we came and if it wasn't so far from where I lived I would attend more regularly/become a member.

It is impossible to visit during the summer months it is just wicked hot and no real place to escape once you start exploring. I'm looking forward to the cooler weather so we can visit again! There is a ton to see and plenty of space to get all the energy out. It really is a beautiful property and I love that it connects to the boardwalk with a walkway! The animals are cute! The beavers are a favorite in our house!
