What riders say about Sioux Falls stables

Rugged Cross Stables

My child loves riding here. We have worked with both instructors and they are amazing. They are so flexible and patient they choose great horses to teach with. I love that they don't only teach how to ride but also how to care for the horse and they get the child involved and responsible for the cares.

This place is amazing! I called in January to see if I could take lessons, and almost immediately was contacted, and since then have been taking lessons regularly. The teachers here are super compassionate, and the horses are healthy and fun to be around. They do a good job teaching western and English riding styles.
