    My girlfriend and I have been wanting to go horseback riding for sometime now. We went to OVS for our 2 year anniversary, and what an amazing experience it was! Beau was incredibly professional and helpful during our trail ride. Zeus and Rose were fantastic horses, and their years of experience really showed on the trail. The staff is super friendly here. I give this place an S+. We'll be back in December!

    Not one to leave reviews but this was so perfect it had to be done. My lovely Wife had riding horseback on the beach on her short list of things she dreamed of doing. I set up a surprise ride with the team at Oceanview stables with no expectations short of perfect day out doing different things with my Wife. We showed up on the most beautiful day clear in the bay, which is rare in and of itself. The horses were gorgeous and the staff helpful and happy. My Wife saddled Rose and I Raven. Zach and Kirby took us out for a ride. They were fantastic gentleman with my Wife who had never ridden. They gave her full confidence and comfort in riding. The setting was beautiful, the trails fantastic, the conversation and the private time couldn't have been curated more perfectly. 10/10 will do it again and would recommend to anyone who interested and even those who have not even thought about it. Cannot say enough about our experience. Will support this Veteran own business being run by a family and improving our beautiful Bay Area activity options. The commitment of Zack and family to the care of the coast and trails is nothing short of heroic. Very thankful and cannot wait to return. On the site booking another trail ride now. You should too.

    Text messages with a staff to cancel lesson plans

    In my opinion, Oceanview Stable has disorganized management. Due to incorrect information from customer service, a staff member agreed to cancel the lesson plans, but charges continued because of internal miscommunication. Management refused to acknowledge the mistake or issue a refund. Instructor quality is inconsistent, and my daughter had a different instructor almost every time who did not know her level. I was also very concerned to see an injured horse still being used for lessons. The horse was nervous and sensitive, which felt unsafe for children, and it showed a lack of concern for animal welfare. Overall, a very disappointing and unprofessional experience.

    The best horseback riding experience I've ever had! I've done trail rides during my travels--in SoCal, Arizona, Mexico, etc. but never have I experienced the horsemanship part in the beginning. I loved that & it should be a standard for everyone to do because it just makes sense, especially for those who have never ridden before. The trail rides I've done they usually just inform us how to turn & stop & that's about it, then we immediately go on the trail ride. I loved this experience because I actually got to learn about the horses too, it wasn't just about riding them. I learned things I never have before, which again are basics but should be taught for everyone trail ride experience. If you're gonna ride an animal you should know how to approach them, interact with them, trust them, etc. Even the trail was beautiful with all the mountain & ocean scenery, it was the best way to highlight California's beauty. I'd highly recommend this trail ride experience, it definitely exceeded expectations

    My horse hope having a water break before our ride, like the hydrated queen she is

    What a great way to spend an afternoon, evening or even morning ride, Juan was our guide he was so knowledgeable and welcoming since the moment we arrive we can not recommend this place enough... ohh and the horses are just so beautiful and well mannered

    This experience was so much fun for my first time riding a horse, lexi and the other wrangler (i forgot her name sorry) were very nice and fun to be around, the views were beautiful and this was overall just such a great way to spend your weekend. I definitely recommend!

    Jamie was our amazing guide with 16 years of guide experience with Oceanview Stables. He took us through the most amazing trails atop the mountains running along the ocean. He shows incredible attention while riding keeping an eye on all the riders and horses so nobody falls behind or having horse issues. This was on my bucket list for over 50 years, and I had an ear to ear grin the entire time while in awe of the amazing scenery. Along the beach part of the ride we encountered a beachside cave! Highly recommended, so not think twice! Well worth the money!!!

    See all

    Ask the Community - Ocean View Stables

    Can there be two people on one horse?

    No. One person per horse is the safe route. I don't know anyone who would put two people on a horse.

    What's the price per hour?

    ~ 100 plus tip.

    Can I ever ride alone? or is it always with a group? Riding a string horse can be pretty boring in line. Can I ride with only 2 or three other riders (I would know and brought these riders)?

    They have private rides available

    Can I ride a horse without any experience?

    No prior experience needed!

I've seen many riding academies and Sun Valley is one of the best out there. They have several different trainers to bring out the best in you and your horse. They are able to cater to beginning riders as well as advanced riders for lessons, schooling shows, etc. Their students are taught all aspects of horsemanship so they understand safety as well as a bond with the horse they are riding. The trainers are knowledgeable, friendly and always willing to give a helping hand if you need it. The trainers are highly skilled and each have their own specialty. There is a multitude of knowledge and years of experience in this barn. The owner, Diane, is a great business woman who cares about her staff, students, horses and her boarders. This is a rare thing to find. Her business is truly an equestrian family!

    We love this place! My daughter has been taking lessons here for a few months and I couldn't say…read moreenough nice things about this place. Diane and my daughter's instructor Kailey have been such a huge part of my daughter's healing and happiness. I do believe that horses provide therapy and this has seriously been life-changing for my daughter. In the short amount of time, she has learned so much about riding, horsemanship, and has a real passion to keep learning and going far in the sport. I haven't seen her so passionate about anything like this in a long time. They really take the time necessary to train each person on every aspect of horses and horse riding. It's beautiful to watch and I love having my daughter come home and tell me all of the things that she's learning. It's hard work but the feeling of accomplishment is like nothing you can imagine. I have seen several of the instructors and every single one of them is very positive and uplifting and I am not used to that because in the past when we have been around riding instructors, I have noticed that there has been a lot of negativity. Not at Sun Valley equestrian - it's all about positive energy and loving what you do. I just can't thank them enough for the impact they are making in my daughters life.

You were right when you told me that she's mean to everyone. She's not only mean but aggressive.

My Trainer politely stated that we had 5 min left and then we would leave. Oni stated "since you are not leaving now I'm going to turn the sprinklers on!" She then started turning on the metal sprinkler valve -in the grass right next to your arena She threatened our safety as well as the horses safety. What if my mare had gotten spoked and broke free? Oni continued to hurl (unprovoked by My trainer and I) horrible insults at both oThen she said that all of your horses had herpes and we had to leave. We all know this is false, for multiple reasons.
