    My friends hosted a birthday party for their daughter at Legacy Stables and we had so much fun!…read moreKarin's Horse Connection is the 501 (c)3 non-profit, while Legacy Stables operates their business which includes riding lessons, horse camps, birthday parties, etc. My friend's daughter loves unicorns, so they chose the unicorn birthday package which included some games, interacting with the horses, access to a private (heated) space, and supervised "unicorn" rides! It was so cute. The staff were so great with the kids (aged 4-10ish) and safety was a priority. I didn't get a chance to ride any of the horses, but I'd honestly like to come back and do a one time ride at some point. I haven't ridden a horse since I was a teenager, and being around them made me really happy. Such a fun spot and they have a great mission of equine therapy.

This sport clearly requires tremendous trust and goodwill between the vaulters and the horse. Watching my child participate in horse vaulting has been an incredibly rewarding experience. Not only has she developed physical strength and agility, but she has also learned important life skills such as communication, discipline, and perseverance. I am grateful for the opportunity to witness this unique and exciting sport, and I am proud to be a part of a community that values sportsmanship and teamwork. Staff--They are all wonderful. They all equally invested in helping my child grow and develop the skills that she needs to be great. I can't say enough good things about the people, horses, and the Barn. We always look forward to being there.

You can board your horse here or take lessons on some of the amazing Meadowview horses. No matter what your level of experience, Meadowview can help you achieve any riding, training and showing goals. From my first pony ride to becoming a national champion, Cathy, Hillary and the whole team at Meadowview have been there every step of the way. I trust them entirely to give my horses the best care possible. They exemplify professionalism and horsemanship and I am honored to be one of their most successful students. Hillary herself is an extraordinary rider whom I admire greatly. I highly recommend attending a summer polo match or Lake Effects Horse Show. It's an amazing opportunity to watch horses and riders perform! The team at Meadowview makes riding fun for any level. Thanks Meadowview, for all that you do!

The Springdale is much older than the Kingswood. Our family enjoyed swimming and volley ball. The playground is old and the slides need repair. We did the horseback riding and that was fun, except the horses hooves needed attention. You could tell they had not had a farrier out to trim the horses in a long time. Some of the kids running the horseback riding didn't seem to have a good handle on the horses. It was quite unorganized. The worst part of the experience was the river float. The river was not only slow but the water level was low and the water was quite disgusting. At many points, your butt was touching the bottom of the river and it was mucky, rocky, and we had to get out and walk. Wear water shoes! I don't understand why the river was not dredges of all the debris. With the water table being so low, they should have prepared us for a slow moving river, and seaweed everywhere. IT WAS A VERY BAD EXPERIENCE!

    In December our daughter was bit in the face by a pony at a Chamberlin Pony Rides petting zoo…read more I do not normally write negative reviews but the amount of neglect that led to this incident as well as the lack of compassion and accountability afterward is astonishing. We have never had any intent to take legal action, but we need to share our incident so that another child does not have to go through the same terrible experience. Let me start by saying, we certainly understand that any animal can bite, that is a risk you take interacting with them. However, this incident could have been prevented. An irresponsible animal owner and the lack of proper procedures at Chamberlin is to blame. At the petting zoo, there were three pens of animals with employees in two, no employees at the pony pen. My daughter, who has ridden horses for 3 years, very gently pet one of the ponies. In an instant the pony turned her head and bit my daughter on the cheek. There were teeth marks visible on both the top and bottom and it was bleeding. EMS was called and we were sent to the emergency room where they cleaned the wound and put her on Augmentin. As awful as this was, we were aware the bite could have been much worse - a finger, an ear, an even deeper bite...so we were at least thankful for that. After the incident, I followed up with Chamberlin as we needed to ensure the pony was up to date on its vaccinations. We were told we needed to talk to our Event Manager as they book various farms for their events. According to their FB page, "we do not farm out our parties to our friends or other companies". Later the company told us that the farms are contractors 'doing business as' Chamberlin so they stand behind their statement. I believe the intent of the statement is to instill confidence that Chamberlin knows the animals and that they are healthy. That is inaccurate. Chamberlin assured us their animals have to be up to date on vaccinations. However, I wanted to confirm that with the actual pony owner. The first thing the owner, Melissa, did was reference the Michigan law stating they are not responsible for injuries from the animals. There was no compassion, no inquiry as to how she was doing. Come to find out Melissa doesn't know if the vaccinations are current. Melissa agrees to reach out to the vet and have the horse evaluated. In fact, the pony was overdue on all of her shots, including rabies. So then we have to work with our Pediatrician to determine if our daughter has to have the series of rabies vaccinations, which are awful. We even had to consult with a Pediatric Infectious Disease Doctor who thankfully said rabies was rare, although not impossible, in horses and we should be ok. Furthermore, the vet tells Melissa, which she then texts to me, "Her (the pony's) moody attitude is probably directly connected to her baby being weaned right now". This makes it clear Melissa is an unknowledgeable owner and the pony was not in any condition to be at the petting zoo. There is obviously no procedure in place for Chamberlin to verify the health status of the animals they send to these events. We have a dog and every single time we board her we have to supply updated records. How this is not being done with much larger animals is beyond me. I reached back out to Chamberlin as I have no way of knowing how much information Melissa shared with them. I called three times and never got a call back from anyone, so, I sent a FB message and again the first message was a link to the Michigan law releasing them from blame. I proceeded to explain our experience and the person messaging said "I will pass this information along to the Chamberlin management team". I never received a follow up. I cannot believe this is how they run their business. I just wanted assurance they would evaluate their processes and rectify their failings. We are reasonable people who understand things happen but the numerous neglectful actions by Melissa and Chamberlin are disturbing. We can't in good conscience keep this to yourselves and let another child be harmed.
