If your horse could choose a boarding facility, it would definitely pick Catawba Equestrian Center!…read more Whether you enjoy riding in an arena, (they are huge, by the way), or exploring beautifully groomed trails, you and your horse will love the relaxed atmosphere of this property. I especially enjoy the friendly atmosphere, and knowing my horse has such excellent care gives me great comfort. I'm so thankful I found this place!

First the good. The two barn ladies are very good and do the best they can with 30+ horses. Most…read morefacilities this size run with more help, but when you understand how they take care of your horse you'll understand how they do it with only two people. Unless you have a very strong minded large gelding, I would recommend not letting them put your horse in the backfield. Those horses are big and aggressive. If you pay $650 for stall board, that only means that they will eat inside. Horses are not led into the stalls, they run into the stalls and they leave the stall doors open all day which leaves opportunity for multiple horses to get into one stall. Somewhere in this practice my horse was injured, it was unwitnessed but when I left two hours prior to feeding time the horse was perfectly sound and when I came back he was dragging his left front leg. Unless you pay extra charges they will not put your horse in during the day when it's hot, they will not put your horse in during storms. That's pasture board to me. Second read that board contract very carefully, any additional services always cost more money they are up front about that, but no concessions are made even when your horses left 3 weeks prior to their end date. They do not have any holding pens for incoming horses, so there is no quarantine area. There is no small paddocks for rehabbing horses for individual turn out, so it's not a good rehab facility in my opinion. Outside arena is very pretty, but it is very deep in the back left hand corner. Trails were very nice. All in all I'm going to say that it wasn't worth the money I've spent, owners are not long-term professional horse people, but if you like an air conditioned bathroom it's a great place.

I LOVE this place!…read more I found Good Hope looking for volunteer opportunities for my 14 y.o. daughter. The work that Peggy and her staff do is indescribably wonderful! Not only is the place clean and well kept, but the horses are well groomed, well cared for, and well loved. These beautiful animals are trained to work with special needs children and adults. The horse's power and strength is able to empower a rider who cannot walk, or cannot talk, or maybe cannot sit upright without assistance. Peggy and her staff are gentle, yet stern to both the horse and the rider. Peggy keeps everyone safe, and has at least 3 other people helping the rider at all times. She always asks the rider if they are having fun, but also always reinforces the need for safety. The grounds are a little slice of heaven. Even if you just need some time to commune with nature, take a ride down south, park your car, and sit in the shade to watch the little miracles performed here. You will not regret the trip! Thank you for what you do Peggy! We LOVE YOU! P.S. Lessons are also available for non-special needs riders too! Check out their website!
