What riders say about Sylmar stables

Middle Ranch

Beautiful equestrian facilities, And from what I understand there are other things to do at middle ranch I just have not had the pleasure of doing them. beautiful mountains with the little stream, gorgeous..

★★★★★ Glen, Jun 2018

CM Training Stables

Caroline and her staff are excellent trainers who genuinely care for their horses. I came to her six months ago as a beginner adult rider returning to riding after an eight-year break, and from day one I felt welcomed and supported.

★★★★★ Sabrina, Jan 2026

Rushton Stables LA

The moment you walk into the barn you're already having fun. You get to watch horses on their way in and out as the trainers work with them, constantly moving, and when it's time for your lesson you're matched with one of their fantastic, show-quality horses.
