What riders say about Lexington stables

Secret Springs

Jennifer took her time with my daughters first lesson and made sure she taught her in a way that made sense. You can tell the animals are very well cared for and Jennifer was so encouraging and has the right temperament to teach! My girl was begging to come back the next day.

★★★★★ Sarah, Jul 2023

Manes in Motion Inc

Kelsey has been absolutely amazing with my daughter and her horse! When my daughter first got her new horse, they went through a really rough time trying to figure each other out.

★★★★★ Amanda, Sep 2026

Heritage Farm Paso Fino Horses

I was so lucky to have been put in touch with Milda Minter at Heritage Farms! You cannot find a better trainer for your horse, period, end of sentence. We've had two horses trained by Milda, and I continue to take lessons from her.
