It was cold, so prepare accordingly as the indoor stalls and riding area is not heated. We did a brief tour of the stable, and then the group was broken in two three groups. They got to ride 3 different horses, guided by some young girls for about an hour and then on to the cake and presents. It was a unique opportunity for my kids to ride. I was unaware this was even a thing - and it's about 25 minutes from Omaha in Blair/Bennington off County Rd 41.

A turnoff onto a non-descript gravel road leads you to the picturesque grounds of the American Legacy Complex. Horseback riding lessons are offered here and they have quite the facility. Both indoor and outdoor areas are here and several horses to learn to ride on. My son has taken a few lessons here and has enjoyed it. Safety comes first as my son was required to wear a helmet. Also, they learn to brush the horses towards the end of the lesson. The staff here is friendly and helpful. They also have horse events from time to time where they have rides, contests, etc. I haven't been to one yet with my son but plan to in the near future.

I wanted to do something different for a birthday activity and Le Smash was the perfect choice. I…read morereally enjoy the concept of the smash rooms and it was totally worth the money. You get to smash TVs, bottles, other electronics, vases, plates, tables, and more. (Note - some of the wine bottles are harder to smash.) The owner is great to work with. We had a party of six and he provided us with baseball bats and a crowbar for smashing. Each of us had our own basket of items that we could smash such as beer bottles, plates, and wine bottles. You could also grab other items inside the room. I recommend this for a fun activity or to relieve stress.

I really appreciate the concept of the smash room and honestly, would do it again. My issue is that…read moreI have paid $963 for a smash session with 5 people. I called in July 18th to make a reservation for a smash party. Booked it for 10 people just to be safe, so I paid the $321. However soon after I hung up the phone I was getting notifications and e-mails from my bank suspecting fraud. I check my account and I was charged the $321 FOUR TIMES. I immediately called back and spoke to the owner who said that something went wrong in her system and she would refund the extra charges. I saw them as pending returns so I assumed that since it was a Friday they would go through by Monday. Nope. They disappeared. For the past few weeks I have called, left a message on the website, and even spoke to the owner on the day of the party. She said she received my message and issued the refunds (again, I assume?). That was July 29th. I had my party, and it was a great time. But again. Almost $1,000 of my own money has been in the pockets of this business since 7/18. It's now 8/8. I still have three charges of $321 on my bank account. So I basically paid for 30 people to have a smash party when I had FIVE. I've held off on writing a Yelp review because I wanted to give the benefit of the doubt but at this point I am over it. The fact that I have to continuously call/message and dispute transaction with my bank to get MY OWN MONEY BACK is so ridiculous. Hoping another smash room opens up in the area because I've given enough money to this business to last a lifetime.

The kids especially loved the monkey bars, rings, and slide. There were other little ones in there at the same time and there's plenty for little toddlers to do and climb on. We spent about 90 minutes there which flew by as I helped them along different activities. I love having a gym like this so close to us, and it offers different activities than other kids gyms in Omaha. If you've got kids interested in gymnastics and want to give it a try this is a great place to learn more.

I came up to visit Omaha for a week with my best friend, and we love doing escape rooms. We've done…read morequite a few escape rooms here in Omaha, but I have to say, this is one of my favorites. We did Blackbeard's Treasure, and the three of us, my best friend, her husband, and myself were pirates who decided to raid Blackbeard's treasure while he was off doing whatever pirates do. The thing is...we only had an hour before the captain himself came back. This was a challenging room with tons of puzzles to solve. The clues were just challenging enough that we needed to use a few hints, but they weren't so hard that we felt defeated. When we needed clues, the game master was helpful, kind, and had such an awesome sense of humor. He was easy to talk to and approachable. He even showed us his other rooms! And we can't wait to come back and try out Moriarty's next time. If you're looking for a fun escape room that's challenging and run by a really friendly game master, you won't be disappointed!

As an adult re-rider, I wasn't looking for a highly competitive or elite show barn. I was looking…read morefor a place where I could receive quality instruction, enjoy my time with horses, and continue learning in a supportive, low-pressure environment. I found exactly that here at AME! The horses are well cared for and genuinely seem happy, which says a lot about the program. One of the things I appreciate most is the atmosphere. The younger riders encourage one another, everyone is welcoming, and there is a true sense of community. The facilities are functional and always improving, but what really makes this barn special is how it feels. I never worry about fitting in or keeping up appearances. I get to be the most authentic version of myself every time I walk through the gate, without judgment or expectations. The common thread among everyone here is simply a love of horses. If you're looking for a welcoming barn with quality instruction, happy horses, and an environment where riders of all ages and goals can enjoy the sport, I would absolutely recommend Ashley Mason Equestrian.

I only spent a short time at this barn and left about a year ago, but I how disappointed I was in…read morethis place has stayed on my mind. during the time when I first signed up, I was told about how great it is, how custom the programs are, how many different opportunities there are, and the truly personalized care everyone receives; inclusive. while I do agree there are some neat opportunities when Ashley brings in other professionals for classes or clinics, it is not worth the pain of everything else. it was and still is my understanding that only a relatively small group of people are prioritized and have had good experiences, but from what I have experienced myself, the following is very likely a more realistic picture of what you will get. for one, how much you are paying matters... if you are on the lowest tier, you are lowest on the list of people Ashley cares about and it is hard to advance if you do not have the budget. her effort with me, not being a more wealthy client was astonishingly low. even those I had known to pay for the most expensive package for lessons/showing/boarding felt jipped when all was said and done. regardless of that, lessons with Ashley specifically (not the other trainers) were extremely unstructured and little instruction or advice was actually given. She very clearly either had little interest in or had difficulty paying attention to more than one student at a time, so group lessons (basically the only thing available unless you are a special few...) are basically "supervised" freestyle practice... and I once saw a lesson with approximately 12 students... it was a mess and the arena was not sizable enough to safely accommodate that many children, in my opinion(all inappropriate considering the price and what was promised). while every trainer has their own philosophy, and they do not work for everyone, which is okay, Ashley had particularly strange rules about never jumping a single horse above 2ft unless it was in competition (if this has changed since, I do not know), so I felt extremely under challenged and frustrated as a rider of 10+ years who did not have the financial flexibility to partake in competition. The goal of this was to home in on the basics of riding/jumping in the hopes that it would translate to higher jumps but in reality that is not how it worked if you cannot ever practice the more difficult courses or higher jumps. the second goal of this rule was to be gentle on the horse's and pony's legs because these animals were CONSTANTLY in use... I think way more clients were being taken on than could be practically scheduled or handled. All that is to say, this was my experience when I was even able to get a lesson. I was cancelled on repeatedly and it was hard to reschedule. Communication was a huge weak point of this facility (although Ashley has no problem openly saying judgemental things about her students to other clients and employees). during one month I had paid ahead in full, and was not able to get in for a single lesson because time management is a huge issue here (only one lesson out of that month will I conceed and say the cancellation was truly beyond anyone's control) Ashley agreed to suspend payment and give me the next month for free because of this, but I was never scheduled then either. I was never contacted again, though I tried, never saw any money back, and quit the place in frustration. While employees and student volunteers did their best to keep the place clean, stalls were not to the standards that I think any self respecting horseman would allow. since leaving I have only heard other horror stories about neglect of the animals, which is certainly much more serious than my own personal gripes about lesson quality or Ashley's personality. the bottom line is that there are double standards, promises often go unfulfilled, there is an air of immaturity, and this place is not of the quality it tries to portray for horse or rider.
