What riders say about Big Rock stables

Jay Stables

I cannot say enough good things about Jay Stables and owner/trainer Karen Rock. My yearling Shire Cross was in need of good foundation and manners. He spent 2 months with Karen. She exposed him to so many new things, lunging, cross-tying, ponying, long-lining, trailer loading, trail obstacles to name a few.

Sunset Knoll Riding Academy

My kids enjoy lessons here. Izzy is their riding instructor. She is friendly and knowledgeable. Most of all, the kids have fun.
