Bartlett Homestead Stables

For the past two years I've been learning to ride at Bartlett Homestead Stables. This has been such a source of joy in my life, and I attribute the joy to Dawn! While I have taken some lessons over the years at other stables, these previous lessons were mostly about what I do so that the horse responds. Dawn's gift is in helping me to notice and make sense of the horse's cues and languages - and my role in creating and trusting in the horse-rider partnership. Dawn knows and appreciates each individual horse at Bartlett Homestead. She knows their likes and preferences, their individual personalities and needs, so that each horse receives personalized care. And it's just like that for me! Each lesson is individualized based on where I am in my learning, my goals and what I need next. I am continually delighted and surprised by what Dawn has in store for me and the many varied and interesting ways that she supports my learning. I could not ask for a better riding instructor!

My wife is an experienced horsewoman, and I have never heard her sing the praises of an equestrian facility like she does Bartlett Homestead Stables. The manager, Dawn, brings detailed, thoughtful care to every aspect of the horses’ well being: nutrition, hoof care, grooming, etc., and she provides great stimulation to them physically and mentally with agility training and other innovative exercises. She also is an excellent instructor and will help you progress no matter what your level. The barn is beautiful, recently renovated with oversized stalls, a well maintained riding arena, and miles of trails to enjoy. They hold wonderfully educational clinics periodically to help enhance everyone’s knowledge. The stables have fun activities as well, like the costume contest at Halloween. Hilarious! Bartlett Homestead Stables has drawn together a really great group of people. You couldn’t do better.

Highly recommend Bartlett Homestead Stables. We are so fortunate to have this place in our area. Dawn is phenomenal. I am constantly impressed by her knowledge and skills in caring for horses, and for the people who love them. She’s an incredible resource, the property is well maintained, and the owners really care about creating a healthy happy environment for the horses and their people.

From day one I knew this would be the place for me. I felt welcomed, and also respected from the second I walked into the beautiful barn. This place is my happy place. Dawn is absolutely amazing, and always puts the horses first. To say I got lucky finding this barn is an understatement. Bartlett Homestead has helped me through some of the darkest, toughest times. The horses are all so happy, and so well taken care of. The property is absolutely beautiful as well. I couldn't have dreamed of a better barn. Thank you Dawn and Paul!!

I have known Dawn for a while now, and there’s honestly not a single thing negative to say! She pays a lot of attention to individual detail of every horse under her care/ watch as well as the owner! Every time I’ve stopped into to visit the farm it’s always kept very clean and organized and all the horses always look very relaxed and munching on hay! Dawn takes a lot of pride in what she does, as she should because she does a very great job!

I am the proud Nana of a handsome boy stabled at Bartlett Homestead. It's a breath of fresh air to walk through such a well maintained barn to go visit Dechali and his friends. The corrals are clean and the riding path kept open in all kinds of weather. I've been to many stables in my 65yrs and know when the owner & clientele care about their tenants as Paul & the girls do it makes for an environment you can feel good about leaving your babies with🐴❤️🐴

Granddaughter takes riding lessons here. She loves it
