Diane's Riding Place

Exceptional MASTER horse trainer, child, and adult professional guide. Full of experience and amazing energy. Our soft spoken child is extremely shy and Diane was able to bring out the best in our 6 year and 2 year old. The whole experience was so well done and exciting for all of us. Perfect for beginners who’ve never ridden like the 2 men and 2 little ones in the picture. I myself have been an intermediate rider in the past, and she did a great job customizing our lesson together We will come back each time we visit for horse lessons and would refer her to friends and family. There’s plenty of parking with a sign pointing to where the office is in (the major part of the barn with a large star on it and adjacent horse stables).There’s also 2 small playgrounds for the kids when it’s the adults turn to ride Her story on her website is also incredible as she comes from a long line horse ranchers. I’m happy to support her lineage and long line of family business

My college roommates and I were in town for a girls’ weekend. We took a wonderful one hour ride with Diane. She was a hoot! She custom tailored the experience to meet our riding needs as a few members of the party had prior horse experience. We rode around her property and spent some time in the arena. Her horses were well mannered, cared for and her passion was evident. She even took pictures of our trail ride and arena time and shared with us. I would highly recommend riding with Diane. It was a memorable experience! We will be back!

Hats off to Diane and her wonderful horses! My family of 3 had an hour "beginner" lesson and we were on the horses almost immediately and on our way. It was a beautiful day and we toured the amazing property while given great instruction and fun obstacles to steer our horses through. Loved it and would highly recommend for a fun family adventure! She also took pictures and sent them to us afterwards…thank you Diane!

We had a blast riding and awesome tips that actually made a difference. Plus, getting to hang out and play with the horses was the best! They're so sweet. We especially loved, Diane – she's hilarious and knows absolutely everything about horses. Seriously, learning from her was so much fun. The whole place is great too. If you're anywhere near Bend, and want to ride, this is the spot!

Diane is amazing. The best horse in the world is Cadillac Jack. He’s a senior boy. I would not recommend a very heavy person riding him. He’s a 15 hand horse, but he’s such a gentle boy! I hope she keeps Jack forever even after he retires he really does belong there. And Diane is an amazing teacher you ride around a little obstacle course in a pasture- Thank you, Diane you were amazing! We love your place and we would like to come again! Bring carrots or apples for the horses, but bring a lot!

My husband and I took my 3-1/2 year old for a 30 min pony ride here while on vacation. It was such a wonderful experience! She was taken on a very well trained little pony through an obstacle course, around the outdoor arena a few times, and then they had us stop by some pretty trees for the perfect photo op. They made this such a memorable occasion and HIGHLY recommend you try this place out. Diane is so friendly and welcoming:)

Love it! Diane is great! My daughter really loves the horse riding lessons.
