    I'm late posting this review, but I wanted to say thank you to Mindy and Billy…read more My wife did not arrive in the best mood and both Mindy and Billy were incredibly understanding, kind, welcoming - I cannot say enough about how you turned what was a difficult day into a wonderful experience. My wife is a highly skilled rider and she was thrilled with how well-trained the horses were and the wonderful experience we had a Dreamor. I am not a skilled rider and Billy gave me riding tips and instruction on our ride to improve my skills. It was a long ride and a wonderful time. Thank you very much and we hope to visit you again in the future.

    There were several horseback riding options much closer to us than Dreamor Ranch. This ranch is…read moreabout an hour and a half from us but we knew it was 100% worth traveling a bit further to reach. Their reputation for being incredibly friendly, responsive and laid back was the main draw. They're so great at tailoring the experience to who is going to be riding. I brought along my 10-year-old daughter and they had the perfect size horse prepared for her (Lucky!) and the child sized stirrups, saddle, and helmet. Billy was so helpful, friendly and fun. The trail itself is so gorgeous and beginner friendly. It was a long ride and we actually got a little sore toward the end, toward the 2 hour mark, but absolutely worth getting so much time to ride and enjoy! We will 100% be back!

    In a confusing world of horse "Traders" Deanna is a refreshing change!…read more If you are looking for a horse trainer that is also able to communicate effectively to you as a rider, then Deanna is the real deal! She has an easy demeanor and way of training the horse and the rider to become better partners with each other. She has not only a lifetime of personal riding skills, but also has her college degrees in Equine Studies. This blend of formal college training and life experience brings her to the forefront of other trainers who don't pursue both of these important attributes. She does specialize in Gaited Horses, but also can apply her knowledge into other breeds and riding styles, too. She can take your horse into boarded training; you can trailer in each week (as I do); or she can travel to your location. Her rates are very reasonable, and in any choice, she will give her whole attention to you and your horse, so you get a great value for your money! As I said above, Deanna is the real deal: knowledgeable in her horsey sense; knows what she wants the horse and rider to learn, AND able to get both partners to come to the same point of training/ riding knowledge. Don't let me forget to mention that its FUN too!

She helps all levels of riders realize their full potential in a very unintimidating way. I would highly recommend this barn for boarding, leasing, training, and lessons.

    Stephanie Walker at Free Heart Stables is a true horseman. She understands the equine holistically…read moreand teaches her clients from where the horse is at physically and mentally, and always for the good of the horse. My daughter entered into the horse world via typical horseback lesson experience. She received excellent instruction in rider form at a top riding school but she became bored with just jumping on a horse for the purpose of getting through the transitions and jumps while looking good. She craved a deeper bond with her equine partners. So, being a brand new horse person myself, and only to support my daughter from afar, I found Stephanie in a Google search. I figured some horseback lessons that simulated actual horse ownership would cure the bug. I also decided that since this experience would be more than just tacking up the horse and riding, I decided to take lessons too so I could supervise my daughter from the ground. When my daughter first started riding, I wouldn't even pet the horses, and I was the least likely candidate to be a horse owner, that's how resistant I was to this whole horse fever she caught. I thought for sure these true "horsemanship" lessons would end this nonsense. Well, Stephanie didn't cure the horse bug. She made it worse, it was contagious, and I caught it. She stirred a new passion in my daughter and I that opened up a whole new world where horses are now more than a hobby, we have a new lifestyle. Fast forward to today, we are the humble owners of a beautiful, dramatic, and sensitive thoroughbred gelding and Stephanie is our trainer. Forget thinking that this is your typical trainer situation where the expert does the hard work of training your horse and you come out only to ride and experience the fruit of that labor. Stephanie is teaching US how to train our horse. Her lessons involve us in every part of the equine from the how the horse thinks to how the horse moves - on good days and bad days. Some of our best lessons, even when we first started, have been in (and continue to be in) imperfect conditions where we were making mistakes and Stephanie patiently taught us what was going on with the horse mentally, how we created the situation, and how to correct it. She will not do it for you, and she will make you take it slow to do things right. You can do things fast, or you can do them right. Thankfully, she has the patience and calm demeanor of a saint with kids and nervous, newbie, somewhat resistant, older adults. Stephanie just has something special to offer people that is vitally lacking in our fast paced, over tech'd, and over-achieving culture. The character qualities that are being instilled in my daughter (and myself) through this journey is not something the fanciest training barn or most expensive private school could ever teach. It is hard work that teaches you how to slow down, be present, and be teachable. Though the word has lost its meaning, Stephanie is a true natural horseman and she will teach you how to understand and communicate with the horse from the moment you make contact. If you want a truly fulfilling equine partnership that is unlike anything offered at training and lesson barns, contact Stephanie. Your horse will thank you.

It was one of the most enjoyable experiences of my life. It was also a miraculous gift to my 73-year-old friend Lisa. She has been completely blind since an auto accident on the way to a horse show in 1969. She was only 16 years old and in training for the 1972 Olympics in dressage. This ride was her first since that day. Laura is incredibly compassionate and an absolute expert with horses. She is exceptionally safety conscious. She set Lisa up with a gentle horse named Mama, and at Lisa's request, Laura led mama from a few horse lengths away. The experience was amazing and Laura made it possible. I cannot recommend her and Trails of 49 highly enough. Laura is also a great historian. My mother's family has been in Calaveras County since the 1850s. While I live 300 miles away now, it's good to know that the history, horses, and land is so well cared for by such an exceptional person. I was born in Calaveras County and will be buried there, and I'm glad Laura is taking care of it in the meantime!
