What riders say about Raeford stables

Carolina Horse Park Foundation

Great place to watch horse shows and compete. Dressage rings were well footed and maintained. Nice modern barns have great ventilation and large enough stalls for bigger warmbloods. Only downside is no permanent restroom facilities.

Shaky Tail Farm Home of Shaky Tail's Party Animals-Farm is not Open to the Public, only by Booking or Appointment Only

Our daughter had her 7th birthday party at the barn/farm and it was a wonderful, laid back, fun time. We appreciated Cindy having tables and chairs set up for us to put our food & cupcakes on.

★★★★★ Mary, Mar 2024

Chief’s Stable Adventures

My grandson absolutely loved his riding lessons from Chief's Marshall. He is 10, and was very engaged with what he was learning. Chief's Marshall was so professional, knowledgeable and most of all relatable to my grandson.
