What riders say about Stokesdale stables

Green Acres Horse Farm

Beautiful farm to board “and” ride, with full sized arena, gorgeous land and wide, clean trails. “And”, the name fits: The Grass is Greener at Green Acres.

Canter Hill Stables, Inc

Heather is an amazing caretaker especially for senior or special needs horses. She has such a wonderful heart and does an amazing job taking care of each horse as if they were her own. I was very fortunate to have been able to keep my horse here--he loved her, the property, and his senior pasturemate.

★★★★★ Kelly, Jan 2025

Gentle Reins Ranch

A wonderful environment for kids to enjoy learning the wholesome skill of horseback riding. I've had the chance to observe parties and camps here and kids really love the experience.
