What riders say about Dover stables

Redstone Ranch LLC

We had the BEST experience at Redstone Ranch! It’s such a wonderful place to bring a Girl Scout group for an introductory riding lesson. When booking, Dani was quick to respond, making the entire process very smooth. She was so welcoming and made everyone feel comfortable from the moment we arrived.

★★★★★ Laura, Oct 2026

Riviello Stables

The owner, Julie Riviello, brought a horse to meet my father, who is disabled. It totally brightened his day! Many thanks to the kindness of the Riviello Stables team, who are wonderful to work with. Highly recommend for riding lessons; these folks are PASSIONATE about horses (and people)!

Fox Den Farm

My daughter has been riding here for a few years now. Her trainers and peers have been great. A fantastic and supportive stable to be a part of.
