    Last Summer I was looking for a fun social distancing activity to get out of the house. I've been…read moretalking about going horseback riding for the longest time. I wanted to plan something special for my partner and I. I booked the private trail ride for 2. I definitely recommend dressing down and making sure you wear sneakers. It was a very hot day I wish I had a tank top on. Before you enter the stables they go over the do's and don't for safety. There was another family there with younger kids getting the safety spiel. Our trail guide was very nice and sweet. We stopped at certain points to do photo opportunities. We both had a great time and it was definitely a great memory. They have an airbnb on site as well so if you aren't from the area you could certainly rent and plan a trail ride or lessons. There are a few other animals on site that you pet and feed.

    My wife and I had an amazing experience with Kay's Acres horseback riding company! From the moment…read morewe arrived, Joe and the rest of the staff were welcoming, patient, and clearly passionate about what they do. The horses were well cared for and matched perfectly to both of our experience level, which made the whole ride feel safe and enjoyable. The trail ride itself was beautiful--scenic views, peaceful surroundings, and just the right amount of adventure. Our guide Ashley was knowledgeable and made the experience even better with fun facts and great conversation. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a memorable and relaxing trail ride. We'll definitely be going back!

    We love it here! I've been riding since I was 5 years old (I'm almost 40 now) and a few years ago…read moremy daughter and I began riding at JREC Riding School together. I've been consistently happy with their instruction style, horses, knowledge, and programs overall. I can't imagine riding anywhere else. The horses are all incredibly well cared for and LOVED, and each receives personalized care depending on it's needs. It warrants mentioning: I saw a very old review posted to Yelp that sounded horrible (from 2012 by a Janet C.). That review does NOT match what goes on at JREC. I can only guess that the reviewer MUST have be referring to a different location, and got confused when posting on here. Or perhaps there was a different owner/operator of the barn at that time, but that is not a reflection of the Riding School at JREC today.

    Our family has been coming here for years and we love it! The riding lessons are informative and…read morefun and the staff goes above and beyond to work with each rider individually as needed. We do the weekly riding lessons (every Tuesday) and participate in the family-friendly competitions throughout the year. One other thing worth mentioning is that all of the horses are happy, clean, and healthy. They are extremely well-cared for! It's amazing to see the relationships that the horses develop with each person. It's a great place.

    My sister has Spina Bifida, and her physical therapist recommended horseback riding to help build…read moreher core strength. So, we rode at Hoof Prints (or "Four Steps and Hoof Prints", as it was called then) for about 18 months. First and foremost, I want to say that this is where I gained a love of horses, as well as the core knowledge of how to ride, groom, tack, feed, etc., which I've now gone on to use at my job. And I greatly appreciated the modifications Ms. Sandy and her team made for my sister (letting her mount from the back deck for example), as well as Ms. Sandy letting my brother and I ride with my sister (which we weren't originally going to do). The overall environment, however, was extremely negative. At the time, I was 7-8, my sister was a year younger, and my 2 brothers were a few years younger than that. But that didn't seem to matter to Ms. Sandy, who yelled at us for just about everything. (we weren't fast enough, strong enough, etc.) She yelled at her staff for tiny things, yet didn't correct them for larger ones (example: she once had my brother and I ride double, but the helper neglected to check and tighten the girth. As a result, the saddle dumped us, but Ms. Sandy yelled at us and didn't say anything to the aid.) Her expectations were unrealistically high given how young we were, how little experience we had (which was absolutely none), and the limitations my sister has. The horses regularly escaped, but she never figured out how they were escaping. Eventually, my mom felt it was unsafe to continue riding there, and so we left. However, I have maintained contact with some of the staff there (who had become friends) and they've said that all of this has not changed since I was there. Overall, I would have to say that I do not recommend this facility to anyone.
