What riders say about Santa Rosa stables

Cloverleaf Ranch

Called in about a trail ride earlier in the week for the weekend, and Dawn was able to squeeze us in. Little did I know that she was handling the clerical work, riding lesson, and the ride/tour from start-to-finish. The horses are sweet and quirky, and very used to working with new riders.

★★★★★ Matt, Feb 2026

Q Ranch

Owners are very cool and Polo people with a lot of horses themselves. I'm always worried a facility will shut down. Great to be some place where the owners have the most horses!!

★★★★★ Salwa, Oct 2022

Hunter Lane Equestrian Center

Margret, founder and director of Centaur Equitherapy, has a huge heart. She knows horses as family and facilitates her therapeutic program with profession & compassion. Her horses are kind and gentle. Centaur is the place to go for therapeutic riding in Sonoma county.
