Hillcrest Farm

My first lesson was so much fun and I am excited to continue. They are super understanding and accommodating. My trainer showed me how to groom , saddle then ride in my first lesson. She made sure to show me the proper way to ride and then made sure I was comfortable before having me turn or trot with the horse. My schedule only allows for evenings, but they were super accommodating to make sure I am able to continue and not have it affect my work. Love this place!

Wouldn't recommend. The trainer is very young herself and isn't equipped to work with young children, just overall lacking in patience and doesn't have experience under her belt. My 9 year old son came out of his second lesson fighting tears... he was so discouraged by the trainer. Also, the trainer doesn't manage her time very well which leads to almost a full hour of grooming the horse and maybe 5-10 minutes of riding time, if you're lucky.

Be sure to negotiate what your hour-long lesson entails. The majority the time was spent filling out paperwork before the lesson and washing and grooming the horse after the lesson. Actual ride time was probably only 15 minutes. Otherwise decent.

Great barn, trainers and guys! Julie Cleveland Beam is SUPER! Glad to say we've been with Julie over 8 years! Our horses are doing great under her guidance and care!!

One of the best stables in this area. Experienced trainers for every age. Where you are a beginner or have some experience, Hillcrest Farms is the place for you.

Julie is the best of the best, one of the only people I'd trust in the horse trainer world!

Wonderful training for horse & rider, excellent horse care. Recommended highly!
