What riders say about Columbiana stables

Applewood Stables

My family attended a birthday party at Applewood Stables and was very impressed. The staff was patient and made it fun for everyone. We haven’t been around horses much, so it took some time for my son to feel comfortable getting on a horse. My little one started on the pony “Boo” and then rode the larger horse “Taco”.

James Hale Stables

Absolutely the best English saddleseat instructors in Birmingham, and James is well known all over the USA as one of the best American Saddlebred trainers and breeders. It's an honor to be there!

Yellowleaf Creek Stables & Farm

I’ve been boarding here for about 4 years! Can’t say enough good things about them, they care about the horses like their own and are quick to point out if something’s gone awry with your horse! Super peaceful place too!
