What riders say about Shepard Meadows Equestrian Center, Inc.

I couldn't be more happier with this place!!!! As a current volunteer of SMTRC for a year and a half.... everything about the place is just truly amazing! The grounds are well kept and clean, and the horses are the best.

Potential New boarder/Volunteer/trainer - so far VERY professional staff!!! Grounds look AMAZING even in a rain storm!!! Looking forward to meeting with their administrators very soon!!!! Looks very peaceful and not the usual CT equestrian center.
