What I like:
Stalls are well kept, horses are very well cared for. The boarders are helpful and very pleasant to be around (now that one has departed the facility).
The owners / trainers are the most knowledgeable and helpful horse professionals I've found in this area. Would definitely recommend this stable to anyone looking to board, train, and improve your horsemanship!
What needs improvement:
A covered arena would be a little slice of heaven!
Stable Owner's Response:
Give us a year and you will get your heaven!

What I like:
They make thier facility available for overnight stabling. Reasonably priced, stalls or turn out. Close to I-40, easy on, easy off. Hospitable and friendly. Very nice, well thought out property. Places like this make it possible for those of us that travel with our horses to go farther without stressing the animal or driver. Very nice to have out there! Will be adding to my list of good spots to stop for the night.
What needs improvement:
Signs a little difficult to see from the road.
Stable Owner's Response:
I agree with you ....we are working with the city codes and trying to get this resolved.

What I like:
decent set facility.
What needs improvement:
Make sure you get a copy of any paperwork you sign. Do not expect to recieve a prorate on any boarding fees. This is a facility for social clubbing. If you are looking for a professional outfit this is not it.
