What riders say about Bellefonte stables

Buffalo Run Farm

Buffalo Run Farm is where my riding journey has begun and is now a home to my handsome horse. I started riding with BRF November of 2019 and have been very involved with the farm. Instructors are very bright and positive. Horse trainers are very knowledgeable. Farm owner is extremely humble and down to earth.

★★★★★ Nadine, Jul 2021

Eagle Valley Equestrian Center

Very much a family atmosphere, the riding instructors are great. Our daughter looks forward to every week.

★★★★★ Marie, Feb 2024

Rising Hope Therapeutic Riding Center

Such an incredible, peaceful place. My daughter attended the Pony Tales program, and loved it so much. As parents we enjoyed being there. The women who helped my daughter, Tina, is such a kind and wonderful person to be around. 10/10 recommend Rising Hope. And will definitely be back in the future.
