My daughters have been working with Scott for six months now and it is the highlight of our week! We absolutely love Scott. He’s there to have fun but teach responsibility and make sure everything runs smoothly. This is a man that knows his horses and is a gem to work with!

★★★★★ Carrington, Feb 2025

I can’t praise Scott highly enough as a riding instructor. His lessons are well designed and customized to fit whatever my needs are on any given day. He’s an expert horseman who has the ability to make even complex topics easily understandable.

★★★★★ Andrea, Feb 2025

Scott was a lifesaver! My 18 year old daughter needed to refresh horsemanship skills she'd honed a few years back so she could start a summer job at a national park as a ranch hand/trail guide. He jumped in and creatively pulled together some refresher lessons so she started off safely and confidently. So appreciative.

★★★★★ Cathy, Jul 2025

Scott is an excellent trainer and horseman. It has been such a joy to watch him guide and assist my daughter with beach rides and arena work. He makes lessons fun while still maintaining high standards for safety and awareness.
