    We are advanced riders. Who were disappointed with the staff and company. Would not recommend. Waist of time.

    Joseph is a great guide through the desert which is important because there were no well worn trails where we went!

    I've been to a lot of barns over the years, but Sweetwater is by far the best I've ever…read moreexperienced, and for so many reasons. Bailey and Lucy are so amazing! I feel complete trust in them when it comes to leasing or eventually purchasing, which is rare in this industry. They always have your best interests at heart, and it shows in everything they do. The quality of the horses here is top-tier across the board, so you know you're in good hands. But what really sets Sweetwater apart is the community. I grew up showing horses, and I've never been part of a barn family like this, everyone is hardworking, down-to-earth, and genuinely supportive. You don't just ride here, you build lifelong friendships. And the instruction? Next level. I've never had better coaching in my life. They don't just tell you what to do, they explain the how and why, down to the mechanics, so you truly understand how to ride and improve. It's not just about getting around a course, it's about becoming the best rider you can be. If you're serious about becoming an exceptional jumper, this is the place. Your horse will be cared for with the highest standard of love and attention, and you'll be surrounded by an amazing group of people who inspire you every day. This barn already means so much to me in the short time I've been here, and I'm beyond grateful to have found it.

    Lucy is a terrific teacher and runs a top notch SAFE program! If you are looking for an honest,…read morewell run program, Sweetwater is your best bet.

    I wish I could leave a good review for this facility as my girls were super excited to get to ride…read morehere! We recently relocated to Arizona from another state and were very excited at the opportunity the new ESA program offers for homeschooling families (and others) in the state. Both of my girls love horses and riding so much and horseback riding lessons are not something our family could afford to do without the assistance of ESA funds. We did one lesson at Bein Performance Horses with Miss Kelly, and both of my daughters had such a good time. Miss Kelly was a wonderful and kind instructor and we were very pleased with the facility overall. When I requested to receive a copy of the facility's credentials in order to have our payment through ESA approved, the owner refused to provide it saying that she was not willing to provide credentials for the purpose of ESA funds (I spoke with the accounting manager on the phone and she was relaying the owner's response to me). It was not expounded upon as to why so I can't give more specifics to her reasons other than what I was told, which wasn't much. So while our girls may have had an opportunity to foster their love for equestrian disciplines, they instead are being excluded from the opportunity on the basis of the owner's opinions. Certainly she has the right to run her business how she chooses, but it is heartbreaking to me that my children are discriminated against in this way. The ironic thing is, we moved to Arizona partly because we thought that we'd be less discriminated against in our homeschool endeavors in this state than where we came from. I'm sure many families who can outright afford to send their children here will be blessed by the instructors' great care and knowledge, but for any families who were hoping to have their children attend here with the assistance of ESA funding, be warned that you and your children will likely not be welcomed by this facility. I want to add that before officially submitting this review, after speaking with the accounting person on the phone about this matter, I did attempt to email Bein Performance at the email listed on their website and it bounced back saying it was undeliverable. I also reached out via the contact form on their website and it said, "failed to submit". In one last effort to reach out, I messaged on their instagram account as well but no one ever looked at the message or responded. I wanted to give one last opportunity for the business to clarify their position before I wrote this, but all my attempts at communication were unsuccessful.

They only have two riding horses for like 30 kids so while two kids ride, 28 kids stand out in the sun waiting for hours for their turn. And they only let a kid ride once. Other than that and their lack of a cool place to stay, it is a fun riding place.

The stables themselves…read moreare very pretty and set into a calm area of North Scottsdale with views of Pinnacle Peak. It'd be a really cute place to take engagement or family pictures, if they let you. Twisted Tree Farm caters to real riders, like the kind that do jumps and that sort of competition. We didn't quite realize that when we got the groupons...my fiance trying to post and such was a funny site. We just wanted to learn how to ride horses and get to run with them cause trail guides on the hour rides in the desert never let you. Our instructor Victoria was really nice, knowledgeable, and patient. She let me go slowly (those horses are giant) and made sure I felt comfortable with everything. Twisted Tree Farms seems like a great place to go if you want to learn english-style, jump-style horse riding. If you are just looking for regular horse riding lessons like we were, someplace else would probably be better.

This is…read morehands down the best barn community I've ever been a part of--everyone is so supportive and fun, and we do activities both at the barn and outside, which makes it feel like a real family. Monica's training has helped me learn and improve rapidly and has built my confidence so much as a rider. She cares deeply about both her clients and the horses, ensuring they receive the best care every single day. The facility is also absolutely beautiful, and Ricardo, Lupe to Jerry make the experience even better. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found this barn. If you want fantastic care for your horse, amazing lessons, and to be part of the best community, this is the place to be! :)

The community here is genuinely kind and welcoming, making it feel like a second home. For me, one of the biggest highlights is how well the horses are cared for. The team is incredibly dedicated, ensuring the horses are always in great condition. The barn is spotless, well-organized, and runs smoothly. It's rare to find a place that combines excellent coaching, a warm community, and top-notch care for both riders and horses. I couldn't be happier with the experience my wife and I are having here.

    Landed on this place after a lot of research and was super excited to sign up with them, but after…read morebooking a single lesson, I absolutely cannot recommend them. This riding facility maintains a policy of penalizing customers $25 if they cancel a lesson within 24-hours of the start time. They feature this policy prominently on their site (in RED) and note that it is "strictly followed as a courtesy to the instructor." That's all good and well, but their instructor cancelled our first lesson approximately 4.5 hours ahead of time, and with zero apology at that. Since nobody was ever available by phone, I reached out to the owner via email and made her aware of my disappointment with the situation, asking if the cancellation policy worked both ways or if respect for people's time was a one way street. I also made it clear I still wanted to take lessons from her barn and harbored no ill will toward the trainer, because I understand that things happen and people deserve a chance to make it right. I never asked for nor expected *anything*, not a $25 credit, not a discount, not a free lesson, not even an apology from the trainer, nothing. To her credit, the owner promptly responded with an apology and indicated she would work this out. I had hoped this meant she would connect with her trainer(s) and help get the lesson rescheduled and hopefully provide some assurances that this wouldn't happen again. After three business days with no follow up, I emailed the owner again for an update. I pointed out that having already had one commitment broken by the trainer (out of the owner's control), I was hoping she planned to keep her commitment to sort this out (entirely within her control) so we could reschedule. I also reminded her that I was looking for weekly lessons through the balance of the year, which would have been prepaid after the first lesson had it not been cancelled, amounting to well over $3000. I once more extended the olive branch, indicating that while I was unsure how to interpret the lack of follow up, and that despite my gut instincts, I still wanted to give them a chance to make this right and do business with them. The reply I received was another round of apologies, this time for the delay in her follow-up and (again) for the last minute cancellation by her trainer. This was immediately followed with a mealy-mouthed, passive aggressive "I'm not sure we're a good fit for you," cop out, with her ultimately suggesting I look elsewhere for lessons. I interpret that to mean that if you believe a barn should respect your time and hold themselves to the same standards that they demand of their customers, or if you have the temerity to give the owner feedback about a bad experience with a trainer, then you're not a good fit and are unwelcome here. Regrettably, I cannot possibly recommend a barn that has unreliable, unapologetic, flaky instructors, not to mention an owner that cannot keep commitments and lacks basic business sense. This entire situation could have been resolved with a 2-minute phone call, but the owner would rather lose a customer and several thousand up-front dollars than expend even such minuscule effort. Why, oh why, would anyone recommend a barn that is run like this? Pro-Tip™: Riding instruction is a people business, not a horse business. You'll keep more customers and make more money if you act like you understand the difference.
