The other trainers are all awesome as well as I have been watching them all while I am here once a week. My daughter also did the summer camp and had a blast.

Extremely Disappointed - Unprofessional, Unethical, and Unresponsive!…read more I'm writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with Nohl Ranch Saddle club; previously known as Anaheim Hills Saddle Club. After paying $2000 upfront, I was only there for two days before deciding to leave for another ranch due to the owner's rude, racist and unprofessional behavior. On my second day, the owner spoke to me in a disrespectful and condescending manner, making me feel entirely unwelcome. When I decided to leave, I requested my $2000 back, as I had barely utilized their services. Shockingly, they refused to issue a refund. Left with no other option, I took the matter to court. The judge ruled fully in my favor, yet despite the legal decision, they have failed to respond or return my money. This shows a blatant disregard for both their customers and the law. I strongly advise anyone considering this club to be aware of their unethical business practices. My experience has been deeply frustrating, from the poor treatment I received to the lack of accountability and professionalism in resolving the situation. Additionally, I did my research and found a large history of extremely horrendous behavior from the owners, management and staff. I posted in an Orange County Equestrian Facebook Forum and had an overwhelming 40+ individuals reach out with horrid stories from boarding here. Boarders beware! Avoid this place at all costs!

I don't Know what side of the bed this girl woke up on but man was she incredibly rude the entire time. Her name is AMBER. Even the people standing next to me commented on how rude she was. It was very unnecessary. She is not a pleasant person and should not be working with children or Horse/ponies. She literally bullied us the entire tome. Poor girl just needs to feel "empowered" or something lol. It was sad that the entire pony ride my 4 year olds daughter kept asking" " Why so she being mean to you? Why does she keep yelling at you?" 5 stars for the ponies, this girl (AMBER) needs a good talking to from her mom. I could say worse, but I'm no bully.

She assured me that it was and said "she's good". When I got to the front of the line I was told after waiting for 40-45 min that she was too tall. I was visibly upset and rightfully so. The person in charge mentioned they are a small buisness which even more so they should care about a customers frustration. She gave zero cares and said all I can do is "offer you an apology" while she smirked. The lines are were ridiculously long and I'm sure they will do nothing about it. They don't care about families or kids waiting just as long as they get their "cash only" so they can cheat on their taxes. A long line is generally considered a sign of poor customer service. To the vile girl in the lame hat, shame on you! Eliminate sarcasm, rudeness and have some decency for others. Get organized and train your staff so others don't go through what I had to.

She gives every lesson her full attention. I've never left wondering "did that count as a lesson?" Thank you Sam Fossom for helping me realize my lifelong dream of becoming a natural horseman. P.S. I took a bunch of vidis of Sam teaching but unfortunately Yelp only lets you upload photos. One vidi was of her awesome floater, Eddie, who's super kind and knowledgeable.
