What riders say about Payson stables

Payson Horse Boarding

Great place to keep your horses and a relaxing place to hang out with them. We let our horse out in the turnout and for the first time in his life he ran free! It was so beautiful I cried. He ended up falling in love with the owner's mare. Really nice people and place.

Double M Stables

Double M is a fantastic find in the Rim Country! Mike is a great resource with over 50 years in the business, and takes fantastic care of my boys. We had our horse and mini donkey shipped via Equine Express directly to Double M for our move from Ohio to AZ.
