Well, I have to say that I was scared to get on a horse. I was given the most gentle guy they…read morehad--the very sweet Dusty. I have to give a huge shout out to instructor and horse (and people) handler, Nola Butler, who was as patient with me as a person could be. I was able to circumambulate the "arena" with said horse. But when I got on the trail, a few spatial disabilities of mine kicked in (no pun intended), so it was clear I just needed to end my ride. So I got off Dusty as fast as we could get back. (And in the transfer, Dusty managed to grab four huge bushes in one swift movement and put them in his mouth all at once! Impressive!!! That said, he was super gentle and elegantly hoovered an offered ginormous carrot from my hand with delicacy and speed.) So, all told, I maybe spent 30 minutes on the horse, but that was enough time to be truly impressed with this operation and with Nola, who was fabulous. Her assistance and instructions were very clear (and worked!) The set-up is caring about safety. As stated before, Nola is a Goddess of Patience (and good humor...) If I could manage to keep myself on a horse comfortably, I would be very happy with this outfit. I think it was really top notch.

While staying at Wildwood Farm B&B this past September, where PNRA is located, I took three lessons…read morefrom two of their trainers - Robin for dressage and Nola for western and trail. They have at least ten lesson horses used for western and english disciplines, though their dressage school master has apparently gone to the great pasture in the sky. They offer trail rides on 30 acres of woods plus the lanes surrounding their large and well-maintained grassy turnouts and two covered arenas. The horses are in excellent condition and their hooves well maintained, which is something I always look for. They rotate their lesson horses so they aren't overused and as a result they aren't sour as some lesson horses can become. The operation is very safety conscious. I plan on taking lessons again while staying at the B&B. I would recommend this business especially for kids and beginner riders, though anyone who is flexible about their riding will have a great time.

I wanted to go horseback riding for my birthday. I found Stillwater Ranch by searching for trail…read morerides. I am so happy I did. This place was EXACTLY what I was looking for. The owners, Barbara and Dalton were so nice and down to earth, They are true animal lovers just like we are. They have over 20 horse, 3 dogs, 2 mules and they offer it all. This isn't your 1 hour trail ride up a dirt road and back. This ride is 3 to 4 hours long, through trees, down what looks like animal trails in the woods, you criss cross through the woods and clear cuts in the Skykomish River Valley then you head up mountain to this amazing lookout and have lunch. I rode a wonderful gelding named Bernie. Bernie's a Missouri Fox Trotter and he was super sweet. Chris rode Comet, she's a Tennessee Walker. Chris said she floated. You can see for miles up on "the rock". When you look down into the valley and see just how far you have ridden, you are amazed. Dalton said it is probably 5 miles. The lunch is amazing, it's from the Sultan Bakery and it is one of the best lunches I've had. Sitting up on the rock just me, Chris, and Dalton was so relaxing. We became instant friends. Stillwater Ranch offers a variety of rides that include river rafting, fishing, moonlight rides, overnight camping and much, much more. You can ride in all seasons - We are looking forward to a winter ride when the valley is covered in snow. They are even starting a wine dinner ride - woo hoo. The next time we need an equestrian fix, we will look to Stillwater Ranch to supply it.

We started off with the 90 min ride in a group and plan on scheduling the 2 hour private ride for later this summer. Elizabeth was very friendly.

She rode ahead and was always there to answer any questions but my daughter and I were close enough to comfortably talk the entire time. I highly recommend this place, it was both mine and my daughters favorite.

It was definitely worth the price and I would highly recommend to anyone whether you've ridden before or not at all! 2 hours felt like just the right amount of time.

We stayed at WWFB&B in late September for a few days early in the week. The reviews were great and,…read morewe found, well deserved. I was particularly interested in taking some dressage lessons on a school master through their PNW Riding affiliate (operating at WW) to supplement my usual riding lessons after getting back into riding after a multi-year hiatus. The property is well taken care of, the rooms really welcoming (amazing mattresses!), and Gregg's breakfasts are five star for sure. We had to remind him to cut back on the portions - you won't leave the table hungry! He accommodated my dietary requests easily. OMG, I could live on his home fry potatoes. He really knows the businesses in the area and his restaurant recommendations were spot on. The acreage is a wonderful place to take a peaceful morning walk before your massive breakfast. You can tour the barns and visit with all the horses before they are turned out to their large grassy paddocks. I was told there were no resident bears on Whidbey so walking by yourself in the woods is safe. You just never know! I was disappointed to find out that their experienced schoolmaster had passed away, but was able to ride other horses during my time there. I took two lessons with one of their dressage instructors (Robin) on different horses, both in training themselves, which wasn't what I'd expected but was fun and educational nevertheless. One day I did a sort of trail ride combo and western lesson with their head trainer Nola which, again, was a lot of fun as I happen to like many riding disciplines. Their horse facilities are the best, with great turnout and two covered arenas in addition to their wooded trails. Heather asks all the right questions of their riding guests prior to setting up lessons. They advocate compassionate use of their lesson horses who are all maintained in excellent condition. Top notch equestrian operation! Heather writes an excellent monthly newsletter which is available online but also in print in the rooms. It covers a variety of topics related to the area and their place and it's a worthy read to get a feel for Wildwood. We'll be returning next year and will heed Gregg's advice to reserve our room way in advance.

For two years that I have been there I am now accused of not paying, or late paying when the zelle…read moreaccounts all prove correct. They should go back to ledger sheets since they like to be rude and accuse unjustly. Also. Make sure if you rent a stall; your horse should see it and abide in it for at least a part of the day. They say stall with turnout. Well it's 24/7 turnout no stall. Things changed drastically after my daughter left for college When a customer who pays on time, daughter takes and pays for lessons asks to please put her horse in every night and turn out after feeding in the morning is reasonable but it will never happen. The paddock is better for the horse the owner will tell you not for the customer. In all my years I have never come across a person who what I consider a ruthless business woman. Never caring for her customers needs. Usually when a customer makes a request the owners answer should be yes we shall accommodate your wishes not just shrug them off. The satisfaction that was there when they wanted us to join the barn to how it ended is a damn shame. I give them to the Almighty and wish them well.I am also begging all of you to please visit your horse at different hours to really see what is going on. I was told the owner wanted a thirty day notice paid if leaving so on 8/31/23 I did so. On 7/7:23 I paid for august and September and when my request for being stalled at night failed I said okay we are moving out. 8/31/23 I told the owner I was leaving because my request was rejected and then world war three started. Last night I had to prove I paid I did but the owner insists September wasn't paid. Called the police on what refuge I have told to go to civil court for the monthly paid which I can prove and then Animal Control to get my Morgan horse back. No owner should go through this. I am asking the Almighty to intercede. I am going to the bank for print outs on the payments. Stopping in to the courts to place a civil suit on the husband of the owner whom I paid for reimbursement and then Animal Control to be aware I want my horse back. From being a barn I thought was super great this owners performance has made me so skeptical of the way there is another the owners are allowed to act. My experience of liking them went to zero on how their verbal actions when I said I was leaving I guess you can say I'm in shock on the way they flipped. I have no more to say other than I need your prayers to get my daughters horse back unharmed. Need prayers and advice
