What riders say about Rowley stables

Chrislar Horse Farm and Equestrian Center

My son began 4 years ago taking lessons after getting the Boy Scout horsemanship merit badge. He now has his own horse thanks to Chris! He learned so much from his trainor and all the staff he took lessons from. He loves riding with his group class which has become like family.

★★★★★ Darlene, Nov 2017

Winthrop Farm

I have been long time client of Winthrop Farm and Anne Belka. Her barn is well known for its excellent care. Her training and teaching style work toward making the horse all that it can be and teaching the rider to allow it to happen.
