What riders say about Mankato stables

Twisted Z Performance Horses

Large place with loving and knowledgeable caretakers! Horses were great with our four kids!

★★★★★ Debbi, Aug 2018

Willow Wood Stables

This is a horse family. Pam is amazing at how well she cares for the horses at her stable.

★★★★★ Teresa, Dec 2018

Solyntjes Stables

I loved boarding at Judy's stable. Its very laid back and friendly. They built new and the facility is so beautiful. Huge riding arena, and large safe stalls. This stable is very kind to their horses and other animals. I always felt welcome and even though my horse is not there anymore Judy and I remained friends.
