What riders say about Tacoma stables

High Point Equestrian Center

I’ve been getting lessons from Shawna for almost 2 years. The facility is nice and clean. Shawna is responsive with texts and calls and does her best to accommodate everyone she teaches. She’s a great teacher/trainer and she makes it fun. If you can’t get lessons with her immediately, she is worth the wait.

★★★★★ Brandy, Dec 2017

Willow Creek Ranch LLC

I have boarded three horses over the past ten years at Willow Creek Ranch and I plan on staying ten more years! My granddaughter took lessons from Miss Cindy for two years and lit was so fun to see her horsemanship skills grow along with her confidence! Highly recommend.

★★★★★ Jackie, Mar 2024

Woodbrook Stables and Events Center

Great place for boarding horses as well as learning to ride. Outdoor arena and covered arena with motion activated lights for night riding.
