Mystic Canyon Stable

Great place to take lessons. I’ve been here for about a year now, and the staff are amazing. For all of the people out there who don’t like this place, let me talk about it. I have read the reviews for this place, and some people are rude!! First of all, if you see a sign for an unmarked trail right next to the barn, it’s probably best to NOT go into it. Someone said Tiffany was rude about it, but it’s literally HER property!! Tiffany is a VERY nice person! And, if it’s busy, it’s also not a good idea to park in the driveway and watch the horses because you can spook the ones coming out, and many cars come in and out of the parking lot. It’s a better idea to look while you drive by. Mystic Canyon is a private property!! Of course someone is going to ask you kindly what you are doing there. Horses are expensive, and it takes a lot of time and effort. So, please, try not to intervene. I’m not trying to be rude, but I’m saying that some people judge us by a few minutes of being there. Mystic Canyon is a great place to learn about horses, and everyone there is very kind.

I just wanna share my impression as a person who has been to multiple barns, big and small, in multiple countries and rode on and off since I was 11. The love and care Tiffany shows to her animals, her helpers and her students is unmatched. The atmosphere here is supportive, calm and so welcoming - as it should be! But instead 95% of barns will put you and your kid in an overly competitive and hostile environment. So if you might think this place is not fancy enough for you - it will compensate with its energy tenfold. Highly recommended!

I haven't used their services, but I take my dog here to desensitize her to horses. Usually we just stand around, but a couple of times Tiffany has seen us and either encouraged riders to bring horses near us or has done it herself, to help desensitize the horses to dogs too. None have panicked around my mastiff mutt pup, not even the miniature horse. Seems she has some pretty calm horses!

I have been riding at this barn for 4 years and I absolutely love it here. The people are amazing! The barn is a great place to make friends. Tiffany is an amazing professional instructor! She has taught me so many life lessons. Everyone here feels like family!

If you are an adult who would like to learn horseback riding, do NOT go here. You will be trained by teenagers who spend more time arguing with each other than teaching you. Tiffany seems like a nice person, but she isn’t aware of how unprofessional her business really is. During my first lesson, I was told by my teenage instructor that I was riding a horse the stable had barely owned for 1 week and that the saddle I was on didn’t actually fit the horse properly. Today, during my second lesson, my experience on the trail was incredible, but the lesson in the stable was miserable. My teenage instructor told me that she really only knew English style although I paid for Western. That would mean my 1st lesson was also English style which I did not ask for. I will never return to Mystic Canyon Stable.

Mystic Canyon Stables have been in our life for a few years now. My daughter has done a week of summer camp there and loved her experience. Tiffany runs a great program and has a real passion for teaching and riding. We always feel welcome there.

For nearly 10 years, Tiffany has inspired and shaped my children's love and respect for horses and other animals, too, literally from the ground up. She has fostered confidence that nothing is too hard to try and that they can achieve anything so long as they have commitment, determination and motivation. Tiffany has done all of this with a patient hand and caring heart and has instilled these qualities in my children. This is the place to start and grow, and she is the person to build that foundation with your rider, no matter how young or old.
