What riders say about Melbourne stables

Misty Ridge Farm

what a great time! my mother had never been on a horse before and this was a daughter/mom date! michael matched us up with horses that were a good fit based on our skill sets and personalities. this really was so much more than the other horse riding experiences i have had....

Saddle Lake Equestrian Center

I rode for the University of Cincinnati Equestrian Team and I had the pleasure of doing so for about 3 years with Missy Jo before graduation. Riding with the team was some of my favorite collegiate moments and gave me lifelong friendships. We always had a blast and Missy Jo pushed us to be the best riders we could be!
