What riders say about Lake Wales stables

Nancy Slater Natural Horsemanship

After many years in horses and a confidence losing crash into a tree with an incredible Arab, Nancy Slater was able to help me regain momentum in learning and loving my horse journey. Her expert coaching and assessment of both me and my horse restored my joy in all things Equine.

★★★★★ Karen, Jan 2019

Timberlane Stables

This is a beautiful piece of property and a wonderful place to keep my horse. It’s such a relief to get away from the traffic and just spend time outdoors. The grounds are well kept, the atmosphere is peaceful, and there are so many kind, welcoming people here.
