Shadow Mountain Ranch Horseback riding in Thousand Palms, CA

Best place to board your horse. It has large covered stalls, two arenas, four grass pastures and reasonable prices. Trails are located off dirt roads right outside the property.

I have had horses in the desert since the late '90s. I have also been at Shadow Mountain Ranch, both as a client and as a traveling trainer, off and on since 2010. Zandy, the owner, is great and her help is wonderful; the facilities are well cared for and I really don't have anything negative to say.

Shadow Mountain Ranch is a large, clean, friendly facility with something for everyone. Whether you want to trail ride and head to the hills, or school your horse in one of the many arenas, you've found a home of like minded horsey people.

They care deeply about their horses' safety and well-being, and the accommodations for the horses are better than many other boarding stables in the vicinity.
