What riders say about Lexington stables

Kentucky Horse Park

This place is MAGICAL. I've been wanting to come here for over 25 years and it's even better than I ever imagined! LOVE the Heart of the Horse exhibit with Japanese equine history and the Al-Marah Arabian Horse Gallery.

★★★★★ Adeline, Jan 2026

Central Kentucky Riding for Hope

They offer a variety of programs for young people using therapeutic horses to aid the healing process. Staff and volunteers are knowledgeable and compassionate.

★★★★★ Ericka, Jun 2017

Newtown Station Layover

I would give Newtown Station 10 stars if it were possible. My horse stayed here for three days while waiting to be shipped to New Mexico. So many pluses but here are a few: easy to get to, roads wide enough for horse trailers with a turnaround.
