We arrived to the farm and were greeted by instructor at the barn. She was wonderful with him and explained horse care with brushing etc. My grandson had several quiestions which she happily answered. He led the horse to the arena and was taught to ride, turn left right stop etc. The look and smile on his face was priceless. He enjoyed this experience so much and already asked to go back. Thank you to the staff at manito for giving him a wonderful experience.

Schocharie Ridge Farm is by far the greatest…read more I have been boarding my mare at Schocharie Ridge for a year now. The care is excellent, and cannot be beat! She is always well taken care of. The property is always well maintained, full of friendly and compassionate boarders, and a knowledgeable staff. Schocharie Ridge has riders ranging from novice to advanced, and everything else in between. Schocharie Ridge is equipped with a well lit indoor and outdoor ring, both with excellent footing. The property also contains beautiful trails for the avid trail rider. There is always something fun going on at the barn, from the occasional clinic or picnic. At Schocharie Ridge, you will feel like part of a team. Sandy Kantor is an amazing trainer. Her skills in horsemanship cannot be matched. She truly has a gift with horses and riders. She teaches in a way that everyone can understand, creating a comfortable riding environment for riders. She gives her riders true, honest advice, whenever advice is needed. Sandy has helped me numerous times access issues with my horse. She is truly a gem. As mentioned in a previous review, there usually is a waiting list to get into this barn. It is that good! Well worth the wait :)

I have boarded my horse at Schocharie Ridge for almost two years now and the only regret I have is…read morethat I didn't discover it sooner! Sandy and her staff take excellent care of the horses. The facilities are safe and clean, stalls are airy and matted, turnout is incredible, the rings (both indoor and outdoor) & footing are always in great shape, and there are also trails and jumps! Overall, the property is very well kept and the scenery gorgeous. The people/other boarders are friendly, and while Dressage is a large focus, there are a variety of riding styles/disciplines represented and everyone respects each other. Sandy is extremely knowledgeable and conscientious, and the care and best interests of the horses come first. She is also fair, friendly, and approachable. My horse is very picky about things (and people), but he has never been happier, as am I. Sandy is also an excellent trainer of horses as well as riders, many of which have gone on to do some very notable things in the dressage ring, on the racetrack, jumping disciplines, and just plain pleasure/family horses. Each horse and/or rider gets a strong base and foundation in which to build on, or for those who have a base, to move ahead with. Sandy is one of the most hands on trainers I've ever seen. She tailors things individually to each horse and/or rider, and recognizes that everyone learns at a different pace. She goes above and beyond to make sure lessons are learned and both horse and rider have a clear understanding, and takes care to never scare either at any point. Be aware that (for boarding) there is sometimes a waiting list- yes, it is THAT popular!! People don't leave often, because it's that good!! A beautiful facility, a knowledgeable and caring owner who also happens to be a talented trainer of both horses and riders, nice boarders, and VERY happy horses- Schocharie Ridge has it all!!! You (and your horse) won't be disappointed!!

Kim talked to us to see our comfort of riding and experience level. Then we headed over to the barn to see what horses were feeling up for a ride. She chose the horses and saddled them up. Kim truly loves her horses and cares for them with so much compassion. She brushed each one, sprayed them down so the bugs didn't bother them and saddled them up. She made sure our stirrup's fit properly and we loaded up for the ride. Once out of the gate we headed for the trail and then through the woods, crossed a creek and even met some of her neighbors along the ride. We trotted and galloped, my goodness I loved EVERY second of it!!! The horses listened very well. They look to Kim as their leader and will not run without her doing so even if you try to get them to. We will definitely be back when the weather cools down. I love that she doesn't run her horses in summer much because of the heat. This is a wonderful place to ride.

If you're funny about helmets bring a scarf to wrap your hair. We rode down through a clearing into the water, up and down long scenic fall leaf-covered hills.
