What riders say about Gardnerville stables

Sheridan Creek Equestrian Center

★★★★★ Nicole, Apr 2022

Bader Ranch Trail Co.

I recently had the pleasure of taking a horseback riding lesson with Jordan, and I can’t say enough positive things about the experience! Jordan was incredibly knowledgeable and kind, making me feel completely at ease from the start.

Rock-A-Bye Ranch

Rock-A-Bye ranch has been amazing from the day I went to check them out. I moved here from Alabama with my horse. Espresso was shipped here professionally in the winter, the driver was stuck in Reno and couldn't get all the way to Gardnerville.
